Hmm, I’ve seen this before…

I do hope they pull it off, love seeing different looking cars and approaches.

Other than his road rage and nearly killing someone, top bloke

oh man I’m going have to setup EmuDeck again to play this. Criterion did not deserve what EA has done to them, bring back Burnout you cowards.

I wonder how it’s handled, is it a newly trained model for UK driving? If it’s just the US model but told to drive on the left it will be disastrous. UK driving standards are so much higher than in the US, plus tighter lanes with often completely worn out road markings. Think I’ll just avoid London for the first 6 months they are active

I see a Simon Clark video, I upvote. He’s such a great communicator for climate science.

I used to think this until I thought about the amount of money we use every year treating obesity and the related health issues. From the UK this is more obvious as more and more of our tax is used to treat increased rates of cancer and mobility issues. But also in the US I guess everyone’s insurance has to go to up to cover those that require more treatment.

For me education is #1 but we also can’t allow unhealthy foods to be so much cheaper than the healthy alternatives.

I guess it’s a case of “why not”. I’m sure someone could make a client that does the same thing but there’s a few features of mastodon that are geared towards text content rather than just images (quote posts). Likewise there’s probably some features that make sense for an image first platform that probably aren’t needed for mastodon (showing camera setting used).

Hopefully federation between the two does improve to the point that you maybe couldn’t tell at first glance of a profile is on one or the other.

Slightly off topic, but do the large Map apps (Google, Apple, etc) donate to OpenStreetMap at all? I’m pretty sure they use their data, or at the very least check for updates to the open map. I’ve had it a couple times where I’ve updated the map, then a couple weeks later, it’s updated in Apple Maps and Google Maps. If that is the case then surely they can pay to support the service.

Not even a car made in the UK. Shows how much they really care I guess. It was probably made in Germany which is even funnier

Yeah I think we need to be careful of manufacturers making “hybrids” by using the smallest battery possible so that it’s basically always using petrol. Hopefully there’s some legislation coming or already there for this.

But I think the main takeaway is to show there is still a growing market for EVs seen as the manufacturers were recently trying to say an ICE ban was unrealistic.

F1 YouTube: “a small off”

Any reason why? Wouldn’t have thought it would be a money issue like Williams the other year.

I think it will just be a very slow change over many years. It wasn’t only the head designer that wanted Liquid Glass, senior leadership approved of it so a big bang UI change would be admitting they were wrong.

Here we go again

In the UK the vast majority of ATMs don’t charge, no matter which bank you use. The only ones I’ve seen charge are ones in clubs/pubs where I imagine the thinking is if you need cash for a taxi and you are a captive audience. However I have never seen anyone use one of those.

TIL a lot of American ATMs have withdrawal fees. Man is nothing free over there?

AI industry needs to encourage job seekers to pick up AI skills (undefined), in the same way people master Excel to make themselves more employable.

Has anyone in the last 15 years willingly learned excel? It seems like one of those things you have to learn on the job as your boomer managers insist on using it.

Nice to see our tax money being spent tackling the big problems. Fuck me, even if they came out as full blown Hamas supporters, unless they were also making bombs and planning attacks, what does it actually matter

While I would accept a ban on X, the easiest way is to just to move away from it. If enough government, celebrity, news/sports accounts stop using it, the less relevant it becomes.

I can’t take a government seriously when they announce they are looking into banning X, whilst still being on it

Just think in 25 years you get to experience IRL Fallout 76
