Dwarf fortress always seems like a brilliant idea wrapped up in a terrible ui and execution. I recently started playing rimworld and its a very similar game but much easier to get started on. The game progressively gives you tips and messages on how to get better and do stuff rather than requiring you to spend hours reading a wiki to get started.

Being paid to do what you love

Possible. Although you certainly wouldn't want to use a replica carbon fiber bike because they have a very high risk of shattering while in use.

Because Google is developing unethical censorship tools for the Chinese government.

Yes, and its super hard now. When I installed the new android version the only way I could get fdroid installed was flashing it as a system app in the recovery.

Its 100% OS level. I installed Linux mint on my macbook ages ago and my palms were constantly moving the mouse. I then installed fedora and it was back to working perfectly.

One thing I found interesting is you can purposely trigger the palm detection by doing something like putting your finger above the trackpad on the edge and running it slowly down.

Use Firefox, it supports extetensions.

I can't see if anyone is turning because cars leave a gap when no one is turning so if someone does show up they are able to turn. Also I don't think overtaking on the drivers side is allowed on a bike.

Seems to be a miscommunication. I use they as a gender neutral way of referring to individuals as the English language doesn't offer a better alternative.

I refer to everyone as they. I don't see why you have a problem with this. My comment doesn't need to contain details of gender.

Ebikes whip up hills with ease that lower power cars struggle on. The main limiting factor is they are limited to 25km/h by motor power but even that isn't too bad.

Have you ever used a 250w ebike? They are incredibly powerful and they also come with gearing much lower than cars. The power on an ebike does not limit how steep you can go. I took a 250w ebike up a path so steep I had my chin on the handlebars to stop the front wheel lifting off the ground and the motor was powering me up fine.

Shame and peer pressure are also good things often. They help us collaborate and prevent us from acting selfishly. We shame those who do things like litter or steal which prevents this behaviour. If you steal from your friends you will be excluded from their social circle which is enough reason to not do it.

What I mean by that is its not a problem that people are paying for short term high price rentals. The real problem is more housing needs to be built.

Wow, I used to work with someone who ticked every one of those boxes. Incredibly knowledgeable and spent all of their free time reading spec documents and programming. Unfortunately they could be emotionally unstable at times which was had to work around.

Those multi use paths in my city are almost all full of people on their phones. You basically have to go at walking pace.

Because physical separation when not done fully usually means a bike path you can't get anywhere on. Being on the main road allows you to go anywhere a car can. Being on a separated path makes it a pain when the separated path is a secondary thought.

Ebikes have recently become really good and they flatten all hills with ease.

There is one terrible issue I encounter almost every time I ride to work. In the mornings the traffic is stopped all the way to work. The stopped cars leave gaps next to the side roads so cars coning from the other direction can turn across to reach them. Because there is a wall of cars in between the bike lane and the other side of the road, neither the turning car or I can each each other so the car blindly turns across the road assuming no bikes are coming.

Sounds like there is just a shortage of high density housing.

Having no SSL in a trial will probably make customers worry about the products security and the competence of the devs.

The internet existed before advertising and it could continue to exist without it. People still desire instant communication and they would pay for it if a free option did not exist.

A lot of garbage like Facebook would fall and real social networks would take place with real interactions not algorithms trying to drive fake engagement.

I run Linux on my computers and degoogled android on my phone. Do I not deserve to have speakers because I don't run google spyware? Why should speakers even need an app, I just want to plug them in and have sound.

I reccomend installing lineageos. It works great on the s5 and still gets regular updates.

Its not too hard but you may want to dedicate an hour on the weekend to set it up.

The plastic in the ocean is mainly fishing nets that are discarded there because its easier

I'd like to know this as well. The only solution I know is to buy everything at a local farmers market and make everything yourself which seems extremely impractical for most people.

How for example do I not end up with waste shampoo bottles? Its not like I can reuse them because I don't have any way to get shampoo without another bottle.

In Australia they banned single use bags and now most people bring their reusable ones back to the store to reuse.

Its not the worst solution. Problem is a load of it doesn't make it to the bin and everywhere that isn't carefully cleaned daily is covered in bits of plastic.

I'm amazed bitbucket still exists considering both gitlab and github are so far ahead of it. I have to use it at work and its missing half the features I need.

Matrix itself can be used for a few things. The main one being instant messaging but it can be used for a bunch of different things. At its core its a way for clients to exchange json messages in a way that doesn't require everyone to be on the same server.

People have built other stuff like blogs on top of it and you could use it for stuff like IoT devices.

It also comes with end to end encryption.
