Apparently there is 2 types of Windows licences. The ones that are bound to the hardware and ones that aren’t. If you bought a PC with preinstalled Windows, it’s probably the first and you wont get any new keys.
I have been running Linux for some time now, still had a Windows partition for gaming. Then I switched the motherboard and windows decided I no longer had a key for it… I stopped playing most of the windows exclusive games. Since last week I can’t even boot anymore, something about missing drivers. Spent a day trying to fix it. Today I decided fuck it and I’m just leaving it behind! It makes no sense wasting so much energy on a vastly inferior OS that actively tries to fight me.
Long distance cycling. Compared to the record of 1000+km (~600 miles) in 24 hours I suck, but considering 99 random people I think most won’t go for more than 100 miles, so I’m good.
Or oldest stamp they own. Stamp collecting seems to be a pretty dead hobby.
Well Sarahs shirt is italic!
AFAIK someone is working on it. But the problem is the high dynamics of public transport. Routes and schedules get changed quite often, schedules might be quite irregular (think only Sunday at 3:14). And all that data has to be stored offline. Stops might be changed do to construction work for a week. And that is in the optimal case: In some countries the bus comes when it comes, and stops if it wants to stop.
Currently you can see where the lines of a bus or the metro go, but that’s about it, I think.
They will never do, because they are not trying to. AFAIK no one is trying to build FOSS reviews of restaurants/stores, no one is building street view and no one is saving where you live to make the one click from work to home route planning. For me, those are not functions that I need (or want). I need a map that works offline, does route planning (offline) and allows me to display multiple GPX files at the same time.
Does OSMAnd have all that? It does, so for me it’s an alternative. What use case do you have?
The thing is, OSM is not comparable with GoogleMaps. OSM is just a (gigantic) database and is in many cases way more complete than GoogleMaps. What people usually associate with OSM is a rendered version of the database focused on what ever the renderer decided: bike lanes, waterways, hiking trails, etc. Many other apps actually use their database: OrganicMaps, Komoot, etc. And even more their rendered tiles. Now there are so many functionalities that this database doesn’t do like geocoding (searching for adresses), reverse geocoding (getting the adress of a point) or route planning, but there are tools for it build on OSM data. e.g. Nominatim does geocoding and graphhopper does routing.
And to be honest, if you’re travelling by bike graphhopper does a way better job at routing than google. An other plus, you can download the complete data for offline usage. All of Europe is only around 60GB.
So these immigrants move to France, don’t speak French, inflate the housing prices, isolate in an English bubble, buy and sell only from English people, and when they get some French workers they complain that people in Rome do as Romans do… I wonder why they aren’t able to find anyone to work for them.
If windows ships curl, then it’s easy!
It’s quite weird actually: You vote for a party and a local candidate. The local candidate get’s into parlament directly while the rest of parlament is filled proportionally to the general cast vote if they manage to get over 5% of the votes (this does not apply to direct winning candidates or recognized minority representing parties). With parliament resizing to accomodate for at least your direct candidates to represent your percentage. Which always made me wonder, if everyone votes for just Party A’s direct candidates, but they get 0% of the general vote, would all other parties then have to get infinite extra positions? That would result in an infinitely big parliament, which basically means every citizen is now in parliament, and kinda get’s around the fight over universal basic income, right?
Would have been nice to see the cities as pie charts, as probably none of the cities are 100% voting for a party. So it’s a big difference if Clayton is 50% + 1 Dems or 75%.
Clementine crashed so often after updates, but it was the only player whos GUI I really liked. So happy to have found Strawberry. It’s been really stable
Germany is worse than that. For the German statistic 5 minutes and 59 seconds delayed counts as punctual, and if the train doesn’t arrive at all it is not counted. So delyed trains often skip the last station and just turn around so they can start the next trip punctual, but that doesn’t count as unpunctuality.
Also the statistic is only for single trains. So if you miss your connection because over one third of the trains is delayed by more than 6 minutes and the next train runs every hour, then that counts as being 8 minutes delayed and punctual even if the customer arrived 1 hour after their planned arrival.
He found your website, didn’t he? How is that not good SEO?
So unknown in fact, that they posted a picture of themselves on Mastodon and are doing a public talk later this month at the biggest German hacker conference: https://social.hackerspace.pl/@q3k/111528162462505087
I don’t think the French will pass on an opportunity to strike, no matter the reason.
I assume that because of the system no normal buyer would want to get a plate to their home (why would they, they get plates with the car from the dealer after all), so any plate from the plate producer to a private address would also not be delivered? To be honest, personally I would be ok with having to pick up my plate from a dealer if that means Tesla doesn’t break the strike.
If you don’t want to be allowed on the stage again: “The pope song” from Tim Minchin is a bit over 2 minutes and has an over 30 fucks/minute score. And it only has a 2 second instrumental break.
Ignoring the article and focusing ob the picture: how can people leave so much trash behind? More so on a lawn.
