Plus Checo's seat seems more solid that Max's.

I think it's more that NIMBYs hate house building and generally slow the process down.

The paper will still sell the spaces as advertising regardless of whether it's an advert of a public announcement from the government, so advertising is probably right.

There's winget now too, which is the official Windows package manager. I've used it a couple of times now and worked as expected, not sure how it compares to chocolatey outside of simple app installs though.

This is the same on Windows, you can just carry on and then complete an update when you go to shut down the machine. Can't remember the last time an app install or update required the whole OS to be restarted immediately.

I just feel super alone like everyone wants to have hours of chores instead of making them easier.

Why do you care about how other people choose to spend doing their chores? You seem angry for things that don't affect you. Focus on your own life.

You’ll miss out on the Beehaw community

Beehaw seems completetly dead to me, there's only ever a handful of comments on posts.

"Uncritical support for brave socialist comrades giving their lives in defeating Nazis and NATO" or something on those lines

You'd also need a separate type of sign for kph, but one that still adhers to the current standard (white cirle with a red border and a black number). Or put a separate rectangular sign under it with "kph" to denote that the number in the circle is kph rather than mph.

The problem is that you can't just replace one, you'd need to replace them all on the road due to the repeater signs. It would be confusing to see some say 60 and others 30 on the same stretch of road as some repeater signs have been replaced but others haven't.

There'd also be the issue of cars understanding the signs with their sign recognition software, and drivers having to switch their digital spedo, as you usually only see one unit rather than both like on older anaologue speedos.

Not just the speed limits that need changing, basically any sign with a distance on it too.

We and the US are just too stubborn to use the better units.

And expensive. Imagine the cost of changing the entire road network over to use metric.

I'd love to see it but the money could go on far better things.

Why did they write "to" as 2, but then the actual number 1 as "one"?

This is one of my all time favourites, it never fails to make me laugh!

1,500 dead and injured “every single day

No idea how many of those are dead vs injured, but to put that into context, the UK lost 457 people in Afghanistan in a 20 year period, and 179 in Iraq. 255 were lost in the Falklands.

I'd take the figures coming out of Ukraine with a pinch of salt but even if they're half of what's being said, these numbers are crazy. Such a crazy waste of life on all sides.

Ah right fair enough.

It is. Go into your account settings -> blocks and at the bottom is a section for blocking instances.

I've got Lemmy.ml in there. You'll still see comments from their users and posts from users in other communities but you shouldn't see any of their communities in your feed.

Why not block the entire instance in your settings?

I'd doubt the NHS would go for this. Our experience is that they heavily promote breastfeeding and seem to put as much resistance into using formula as possible.

This would seem at odds with their current approach of trying to get more people to breastfeed.

Has there ever been a single one that's worked?

I know absolutely fuck all about satellites but I have to assume on something this old, that it's extremely unlikely.
