GNSS isn’t really accurate enough for this, especially in urban environments where there is poor line of sight to most of the satellites.

There never was a sufficient separation of powers. This and the much-vaunted checks and balances, it turns out, only exist if the person in the White House consents to them existing, and consents to being under the rule of law.

This is a bit of red herring. From the POV of the driver of a petrol car, you’re paying tax to someone - it doesn’t matter who - you’re still paying fuel duty. If you don’t refuel abroad, you paid all the fuel duty in the UK. If you did refuel abroad, you’re not exempt from the fuel duty abroad, you still pay someone for fuel duty even if it’s not the UK - so from your point of view, you’re still paying roughly the same to someone (taxes on fuel aren’t that grossly different between countries a British driver may drive in).

So a mileage tax on electric cars, then you’re no worse off than the petrol car driver, you’re paying tax to someone, you don’t care who is running up the additional cost you have to pay, you’re still paying it. If significant miles are driven by UK drivers in France (e.g. a significant imbalance between how much UK drivers drive in France compared to French drivers driving in the UK) then the French and British governments can decide how that gets divvied up after they have received the tax money from their respective drivers without involving the driver themselves. If in reality UK drivers drive in France about as much as French drivers drive in the UK, then really there’s no need to worry about it.

Backblaze, for one (remote backup and storage service). They buy masses of spinning rust drives to provide large amounts of remote storage at low prices. (They also publish reliability statistics, and do a quarterly report on reliability of various drive types, which is useful).

On that site:

Our electoral system needs upgrading, and if you join us then collectively we can influence the next government to upgrade our democracy so that every vote counts.

It’s extreme wishful thinking to expect the next Labour government to change a voting system that just gave them a landslide to one that would have them governing in coalition.

Surprised it’s not Crapita.

And if the school hadn’t been run like this for years and it being known it was like this for years there wouldn’t have been a TV programme to make. I think you’d have to be pretty gullible to believe their statement.

Such a shameless and brazen attempt to bribe the older electorate.

Presumably it has taken over a year because:

Cdr Dominic Murphy, head of the Counter Terrorism Command, said it had been an “extremely complex investigation”

The chances of an accident while flying on an airline are probably a lot lower than the chances of having an accident going to and from the pub.

That’s nothing new, that’s the very basis of how a firm works out how to price an item or service, at the maximum price the market will bear. It has been this way since the year dot.

Collaborating with “competitors” however must be prevented or the market won’t work. (This is the reason we have anti-monopoly laws, and anti-collusion laws). The laws exist already they just have to be enforced.

It was the kid breaking into the substation to get his frisbee that was stuck in one of the insulators that did it for me. “Jimmmmmyyyy!!!” while smoke was pouring out of his shoes.

Post-industrial depression landscape in the Cumbrian mountains? Or Yorkshire? The Pennines?

As a workaround, you could use OBS and use OBS’s virtual camera so Discord is streaming what it thinks is a camera, and set up whatever you want to share on your desktop through OBS.

Carrier grade NAT. For instance, on our local mobile phone network, thousands of handsets will have the same public IP address.

You can get soft silicone ear pickers with a built in camera now so you can see what you’re scooping.

Cthuhlu. Why go for a lesser evil?

How old is “older?”

I run the latest Debian on a 10 year old Macbook Pro. Linux has given this laptop a second life as a lab machine - it’s still plenty fast enough and it has a really nice screen (Retina) which Debian gets right out of the box with no tweaking. The only thing I needed to do when installing Debian is manually get the drivers for the WiFi hardware during the install (although Debian has the non-free firmware by default these days, they aren’t permitted to distribute all firmware and the WiFi hardware in this machine unfortunately happened to be one of those).

The UK isn’t going to extradite someone over a civil trademark case. (Does the extradition treaty even cover civil actions?) Reddit would likely have to bring a trademark case in the UK.

Why not just rename the instance, instead of creating a completely new one? Rename it, make sure feddit.uk still redirects there, job done. People are lazy and won’t migrate unless they have to - I think you underestimate the difficulty in migration (getting everyone to do it. Just look at migrating off reddit to lemmy - so many people declaring how they hated the changes at reddit but how many actually moved? 1% of them? 0.1% of them? 0.01%? I would expect the number is closer to 0.01% than 1%). Just rename feddit.uk but keep all the users and all the communities so it’s literally zero effort for the users and communities, even their bookmarks will just continue to work with a properly done redirection.

Also - I’m picking nits here - but “Feddit” isn’t infringing a copyright, you cannot copyright a word. It would be a trademark infringement not a copyright infringement. The law around trademarks is quite different to copyrights. Even if Reddit gets wind of feddit.uk, the likely outcome will be a “cease and desist”, and feddit.uk will have to be renamed, not some kind of catastrophe. Reddit’s only going to go to the effort of pursuing a trademark case in the UK courts if the feddit.uk admins are completely intransigent and refuse to take action.
