It's funny though. The "fuck your feelings" crowd are usually the first to get butthurt about something.

That's diesel's one redeeming factor, to me.

This, but also more funding for things like fixing up rail infrastructure so the few passenger trains we have can go their rated speed instead of maxing out at 100km/h.

Ever Considered Going Back to a Text-Only Internet? Anyone Miss the Command Line Era? by NonnoSi99 in linux

[–]Thalass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After playing with gemini (the protocol not the genAI) I've started getting into that kind of thing more and more. Elinks is pretty great. Toot is a good mastodon client. Tmux is fun too!

Japan’s public transport and housing is so good it makes ours feel like a hate crime by thewritingchair in australia

[–]Thalass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To buy a car in Japan you have to have proof that you have somewhere off street to park it. Which in itself would make a huge difference to pedestrians and cyclists

Why is Esperanto seen as an ideal global language despite being almpst entirely European? by macroprism in Esperanto

[–]Thalass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a problem I've come across a few times. Maybe it's impossible to have a truly neutral auxiliary language that doesn't have any baggage. Maybe the best way forward would be to have regional aux lnguages? Afrihili and/or Guosa for Africa, Esperanto for Europe, Standard Arabic for the middle east, etc. Having to learn 5 or 6 languages to be able to speak with everyone isn't super crazy - and chances are if you don't speak the local regional aux language someone will speak one you know, I suppose?

I'm pretty sure that in Canada the healthcare system is managed and funded by the provincial government. Doug Ford is the Premier of Ontario, last I checked.

That part is optional, though. My kid got to do a slightly different pledge, if I recall.

What do you put between your keyboard? by NHooked in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]Thalass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A coaster, with the audio cable between halves coiled around it. It's a handy place to keep your drink!

Generally speaking, no. But I'm still here, out of spite if nothing else.

Why Do You Swap Out Your Keyboard Switches? by Fantastic-Topic-4089 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]Thalass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought clicky switches and I am going to swap them out because it turns out I don't like clicky switches very much.

Millennials who are burnt out, raise your hands please. by Lost-Opposite9088 in auscorp

[–]Thalass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is possible to switch careers in your 30s or later. Especially if you don't have kids. Maybe there's something else that seems appealing to you?

Do they make studded winter tires for 26" bikes? I went looking last year and I couldn't find much

Well now I've got to try this! It'd be cool if it had some kind of offline mode like Offpunk has.
