But Putin won’t because he’s too far into a delusion that was first one of grandeur but has become one of sunk cost.

I’ve read because they’re on a war economy, stopping the war would be catastrophic for Russia’s economy, and probably to Putin himself. But also continuing the war is also doing serious damage. That’s why Putin will never agree to any ceasefire.

How are PeerTube instances funded? I’d imagine that the cost of running an instance is significantly higher than a Lemmy instance.

True, but in order to make it a healthy viable alternative to centralised platforms then there needs to be a financial incentive for creators to use peertube. I guess any creators who give a shit about this kind of thing could upload their content to both platforms, but doing so could have an impact on their YouTube earnings.

Early youtube was beautiful precisely because it was normal people making videos as a hobby, not trying to earn money.

It was also a novelty as it as very new, but the quality of content being put out now is significantly higher than it was in 2005.

What is it about Java where companies are hesitate to upgrade? Do the Java releases always bring breaking changes or are the companies that use Java have a culture of not prioritising tech upgrades?

have year round acceptable temps for cycling, barely any hills to speak of, and no extreme weather excuses

It rains a lot in Ireland and they get plenty of wind from the Atlantic. This would probably put plenty of casual cyclists off.

I’m not convinced. There’s probably a chunk of people who don’t drive because they kept showing that they weren’t safe enough to drive by failing their test. If the aim is to reduce the barrier to entry for driving because tests are expensive (they’re £62 in the UK, really not that expensive) then those costs will only be countered by way higher insurance premiums as there will be more drivers who can just jump in a car and drive on their own and crash. Also as a driver and pedestrian, I really don’t want to be on the same road as those people.

so the driving test proves nothing

The driving test proves you can competently drive to a safe standard. I agree that you learn more through experience, but first you need to be able to drive to a particular standard before being allowed to drive on your own.

What’s the alternative if there’s no test? You just allow anyone who reaches the driving age to get in a car and drive on their own?

In the UK in 2023, it was about 2.5 per 100,00 people.

I’m not a mod of the feddit.uk equivalent so it’s not up to me, but I’d be cautious about doing so. I have lemmy.ml blocked so I can’t see their posts or comments, but I’m a bit wary about their users, it would be like redirecting a unitedkingdom community from hexbear or grad.

!UKCasual@lemmy.world

Yeah we can reach out to the mods there and see if they’d want to redirect to us.

I think it’s more to do with phones - people are just more likely to do most tasks on a phone rather than a laptop.

NASA+ remains available for free, with no ads, through the NASA app and on the agency’s website.

It could be that Netflix can promote it on the platform to garner more interest.

I thought it moved away from the All4 name? Sounds too much like “Awful”, which would always sum up my experience using it.

In my mind a simple unit test should have caught this. Mock out the call to the service that sends the message and verify that it’s been called with the correct message, and cover the possible failure scenarios. That said I hate loosely typed languages lol.

This isn’t the languages fault, it’s the developers.

Someone in the RAF regiment is about to have a very bad day.

This is depressing, Blackpool would remain unscathed.

I wonder where standard and splendid fit on the shitoscale. Perfection has to be where you’ve been waiting ages and you finally log out and you feel about 50kg lighter, and only requires a single wipe.

I’ll let someone else have the fun of describing the other end of the scale…

So the jury found him guilty but it doesn’t sound like the judge is convinced of his guilt, or at least it sounds like theres little viable evidence that he’s associated with the robbers. What other reconnaissance could he have done that would make him guilty? How is using a toilet for it’s intended purpose reconnaissance? So many questions!
