Bortles? Is that you?

If you're going to quote, might as well make it worse:

"By comparison, a bus ticket to New York costs about $215, while a flight costs about $350," he highlighted. "It would have WAY cheaper to just give migrants money for tickets. Abbott's effort not only made it a political stunt, it lined a contractor's pocket."

This is the catch with OPs entire statement about transformation. Their premise is flawed, because the next most likely token is usually the same word the author of a work chose.

As a non-UKer, meal deals are amazing.

So some facts here:

  • Commercial truck carrying gravel
  • This was a rebuilt bridge, not a historic one
  • The owner of the construction company has proactively offered to pay for repairs
  • Yes, the driver is am idiot and made a mistake, and is probably going to hear about it for the rest of their lives.

Nothing specific, just knowledge from those closer, and not likely they'll publicize ad spend, but uptick was seen. Bluesky ads started around April when they had the big influx after the first suspension. Overview, but not a reference: https://www.bbc.com/portuguese/articles/cm2nkdkypk7o

  1. Is bigger than the rest.

Take Brazil. Blusky saw the writing on the wall with Twitter, so they threw a ton of money into media. Guess where everyone went.

I switched to garmin because of the transflective LCD. So much better than AMOLED for a watch. But e-paper would definitely be nice, too (if I didn't use active maps when backpacking).

Well yes, but it's more the "boar's head inspections" that makes it sound weird to those not in the know.

Oh man, the look on your face must have been something

Hi all,

I've finally gotten around to releasing these formally after much testing of prints and usage.

The Twystlock system is a set of 100% 3D printable gaming accessories that require no printed supports or additional parts. This means no springs to buy and no metal elements to melt in, just access to a 3D printer and a bit of super glue. Originally designed for the Steam Deck, these accessories can be applied to the case of any mobile gaming device.

The Twystlock connector itself is designed as a quick-connect that secures parts together with a simple twist motion, can be fully recreated with affordable home-based 3D printers, and doesn't require complicated supports to print. The first use of this connector has been for the Steam Deck, specifically to supply an alternative accessory platform that is more accessible to the everyday 3D printing hobbyist, however it could be utilized as a connector in almost any environment.

Feel free to download what you like, and if you would like to request a new accessory design, or vote on the next accessory to be created, please visit our Lemmy community at https://lemmy.world/c/twystlock@lemmy.nowsci.com.

Why YSK: Locking your credit with the main 3 places is not enough.

https://innovis.com/ have grown enough to require locking as providers are using them as a single check source.

There's also https://www.chexsystems.com/ which many banks use for opening checking accounts. They're unique because they handle accounts that don't show up in a credit report.

All the posts about Reddit blocking everyone except Google and Brave got me thinking: What if SearNGX was federated? I.E. when data is retrieved via a providers API, that data is then federated to all other instances.

It would spread the API load out amongst instances, removing the API bottlenecks that come from search providers.

It would allow for more anonymous search, since users could cycle between instances and get the same results.

Geographic bias would be a thing of the past.

Other than ActivityPub overhead and storage, which could be reduced by federating text-only content, I fail to see any downside.

Thoughts?

It removes pay walls.

It rejects cookie requests.

It blocks ads.

It fixes the internet.

It is magnificent.

The Firefox for Android GitHub releases aren't being updated anymore, and is versions behind the Play Store now.

FDroid Fennec isn't fully the same app, and FDroid has it's own set of delays.

Is there a location where the latest version can be pulled/tracked with Obtainium?

This may violate the "low-effort" rule, but I thought readers might enjoy (remove if not, of course). This particular Android app Privacy Policy shows how the "one size fits all" of the Play Store doesn't always make sense.

Not just number but quality. It was all memes at the start, now actual conversation is happening in more than just a few posts.
