The Netherlands isn't the only place to have pivoted away from cars, but it was very much the first. This is the story of how it became politically possible to shift infrastructure from cars to bikes.

Just another big boxer that wiped out thousands of mom and pop stores, is now sinking like stone. We are such suckers. We have all been victimized by renegade capitalism, and we never talk about it.
Bed Bath & Beyond is closing 149 more stores.

Another entertaining and informative video by #SimonCaine on #peertube #tilvids
https://tilvids.com/videos/watch/acb4b5c7-1101-4a7c-90b7-f515e1687e08
If you see something great on the #fediverse don't forget to amplify it to let them know 'they done good!"
*boost it if you like it!
And remember, you can follow creators on #peertube directly from other #fedi apps like #mastodon by just entering the channel name e.g. @simon.caine_channel in the search bar and clicking FOLLOW.
The EU have done the same for staff devices, however this does seem to have forced Bytedance to try and deal with these concerns, rather then just deny there are privacy concerns about data and the Chinese government.
saying all that, on a work device should staff be working rather than using Tik Tok?

They're not just fighting to deny the fundamental human rights of those people you don't like.
They're fighting against the very concept that anyone has fundamental human rights.
⚠️ This will one day bite you on the backside, too.
Be wary of any government trying to deny anyone their rights. It's just another way for them to put more power into their own hands.
If you think that politicians increasing their own power won't eventually impact your freedom as well, then you're a fool.
The people who tell you it a job is easy or just get any job such as the job centre staff have never done it,

People talk about dull or menial jobs like they're easy
Ok yes, it's easy to make a coffee or pick a tomato. Now do it 1,000 times. Do it every day. Do it with people yelling at you. Do it in the cold. Do it while you're sick.
Just because the task is easy doesn't mean the job is
I think Gary would be better off here on fedi, he is going to face a lot of toxic messages on Twitter.
It is going to be interesting how their policy holds up under international law.
Especially given it is not illegal to cross the channel, it is dangerous, and probably illegal to facilitate the crossings, which goes back to the people traffickers and also the failure to create safe routes, and places to claim asylum.
I thought part the idea of peer review is so others can see your research, reproduce it and offer critical thinking so over time ideas can be built upon.
Surely any science or thinking should be open to new evidence, different perspectives and questions lead to research that can help enhance existing thinking and ideas.

I am running a code club, at Paignton Library, what i get fed up of is the whinging from industry they can't find people with the right skills, they need to change their recruitment process and encourage grass roots initiatives, including yourselves.

Major win for encryption.
European Data Protection Supervisor Wojciech Wiewiórowski said the indiscriminate scanning of private communications proposed by EU’s CSAM regulation “will always be illegal under the Charter of Fundamental Rights (and probably under several national constitutional laws as well),” https://www.euractiv.com/section/law-enforcement/news/eu-watchdog-online-child-abuse-draft-law-creates-illusion-of-legality/
We need decent support for grass roots clubs too, e.g code club which is part of the @Raspberry_Pi
