The op picture is from the UK, since it refers to the NHS. An Australian sign like that would say Medicare
But yes, it’s people cosplaying blue collar

He brought words to a gun fight
The politics of the victim probably couldn’t be mentioned during the trial. They often suppress that sort of stuff
Right, we bulldoze forests to make fertile land available. I agree that’s bad, I don’t want celery from that land either
I cannot eat grass, ruminant animals can. How is it inefficient for me to eat the animal rather than the grass?

Minecraft has private servers (at least on Minecraft java) as well as their own server platform “Realms”, also every client is also a server. Though the authentication system is a Microsoft account so that’s likely to still be online well into the future


I don’t know how you could do that without staying exclusively on open source
I’m old enough that the games I’m nostalgic for are on floppy discs on my shelf, but now the games I play are downloaded and rely on whatever company keeping a server up to authenticate me
Who knows what Microsoft will do with Minecraft in 30 years
Who knows what Steam will do with the licences it’s sold me
You don’t need to do a lot of enforcement to change that behaviour. And you can do the enforcement with red light cameras


A stuck pedal turns the steering towards the barrier? I think the driver had a stroke or heart attack and stopped steering


At 3.18pm on 10 May 2018, Stefan Meier lost control of his Model S on the A2 highway near the Monte Ceneri tunnel. Travelling at about 100kmh (62mph), he ploughed through several warning markers and traffic signs before crashing into a slanted guardrail. “The collision with the guardrail launches the vehicle into the air, where it flips several times before landing,” investigators would write later.
The driver crashed, it doesn’t sound like it was in self driving mode.


Indeed, but cheaper than enough batteries to cover those times
In the off grid home scale one I’d size and set the generator to run for several hours in a row to fully charge the battery on days when the battery was at a sufficiently low charge entering the night, at least that’s what my current modelling suggests. Diesel gensets work best when running fully loaded for at least long enough to warm up
I guess at grid scale you find the sweet spot where most years the gas power station and batteries are balanced to provide cheapest power averaged over the year


The diagram shows that they fall short on winter mornings
My own modelling to decide what size battery I want for my house says it’s easy almost every day, but when you have three rainy and overcast days in a row you need a battery far larger or an alternative. For me the alternative is the grid; at grid scale it’s gas generators


I use keepass, it’s a little more work than many closed source ones, but it’s only as online as you want it to be, and runs on anything


My “smart” bulbs are at the less online end of the spectrum, they host local wifi or bluetooth for configuration via their app, but even that can bite you
I added a wifi range extender to address the problem of stuff at one end of the house regularly losing connection and needed to point one of a particular brand at the new wifi
Its app hadn’t been updated and I needed to dig out my old phone stuck on an old version of Android to set the bulb up again


You lost a bit of credibility when you misspelt atoms
There are rules in Australia that if you set a trap for an animal you must check the trap at least daily. I don’t know that people actually follow that when it comes to nice though


Supermarket speedrun any%
Yeah big vehicles are a problem in Australia too
