Honestly, this should be every government-funded industry where they have power over members of the public. Teachers, police, prison guards, physicians, etc. Too much important info gets trapped in provincial or even municipal databases.

Compromise: mandatory service for young people, wealth taxes on older people who never had to face mandatory service.

 

Strait will remain completely ​open for rest of ceasefire, Iran's foreign minister says.

Iran's foreign minister announced Friday that passage for all commercial ​vessels through the Strait ​of Hormuz is completely ​open following a ceasefire agreement reached in Lebanon yesterday, but President Donald Trump said the U.S. naval blockade on Iran will remain in place until a deal with Tehran is struck.

I just included that because I was already crediting other people and rule of threes, it wasn't meant to be serious.

This should not be considered an accident. This is the expected outcome of the US cuts to FAA. This was social murder.

Uh, i'm mostly confused why ther'es both a lemmy and a piefed when they do the same thing. Do I need to care about piefed.ca?

AFAIK the BYD cars are basically the Chinese version of Teslas - bristling with cameras and internet and computer.

I'd drive a Chinese car but not something like that.

We basically immediately had to shut down our downtown public library the moment the safe sites closed here in Hamilton.

Yeah, Chromecast has been kind of a disaster for Google imho, in that it never got widespread adoption in TVs. If they'd pushed an open standard they might've been able to get that over the finish-line and get buy-in from 3rd parties. But instead every smart TV and smart phone has its own video streaming approach, it seems.

Right but I'm specifically referring to devices where their USB-C port is capable of full video out.

Yeah, I have a pixel 7 and was disappointed on vacation to learn that its USB-C port can't do video when I wanted to plug it into a hotel room TV.

I don't get why this is a Pixel thing at all and not an Android thing though. Shouldn't any Android OS device that can do full video output over USB-C be able to do this?

Building 7

One of these things just doesn't belong here, one of these things is not like the other ones.
