It's cheaper to run a high speed service than a low speed one. You can transport more people with the same number of staff and trains because it runs faster. The solution isn't to run an artificially cheaper low speed service along side, it's to run the high speed service in a sane way.

The problem isn't how they're constructed, it's how they're run, and this article is basically just complaining about SNCF without realising it. They run bad timetables and aim for high occupancy rather than transporting more people. Jon Worth has better writing on the topic IMO.

Should it not be double foldable? It has two folds

Or the fact that it doesn't need to be real because 1. It's still funny and 2. We all know that the incident has happened somewhere, because shit like this happens so often.

Which part of what I said do you disagree with?

exactly, either way you need to make sure there isn't any oncoming traffic.

If there isn't space to overtake two cyclists side by side, there isn't space to overtake one cyclist. If there's another car coming towards you while you overtake, you'd be endangering the one cyclist.

New roads don't reduce traffic, they create more. It's called induced demand. We should be building viable alternatives to driving.

I'm surprised by how many people here buy into Apple's marketing. I thought people on Lemmy would be more aware.

Please don't listen to the other guy. London is huge and incredibly diverse and there's plenty of great people.

Gotta have at lease a little bit of victim blaming

Different places have different laws

I was on my phone so I decided to just assume that lemmy would auto link it for me, but it didn't. So I've added it manually now for you.

It wouldn't be difficult to write this script as a darktable plugin, but I imagine you'd struggle to convince the maintainers to merge code to allow for searching or categorising based on a custom metadata tag.

I'm less familiar with other programs, but I don't see any of the proprietary options implementing this.

There are multiple historic weather APIs available (example), it should be pretty trivial to write a script to read the location and time from the EXIF data of your images, call the API, and them dump the info into a list or back into the image metadata.

The offer was always about capacity rather than speed, something which is clearly desperately needed.

At least at one major auto maker, environmental and serious health concerns are outweighing its aesthetic appeal.

Are they going to stop making cars with huge front hoods which are hugely dangerous to pedestrians? Or stop marketing their cars as if they're meant to be driven dangerously?

The whole premise was that they're in danger and need to get to Canada to be safe (the bad guys don't have passports I guess 🤷), but have to wait just before they cross the border for everyone to show up seemingly for no reason.
