  • Abandon would be the best approach. A ban would just make people want to use it more.

    When twitter (now formally know as “X”) was first a thing, the only reason I joined was because private business, city services, and news agencies became a little easier to follow in one unified location. It also made it easier to reach them with quick tweets.

    Maybe the solution is to put a restriction on business, news agencies, and government services from using it?








  • That’s the thing, when people hear the term micro they still (for some reason) assume its something they can see with their naked eyes. Kind of like those plastic pellets put into handsoaps a while back that are now band.

    In reality microplastics are everywhere there is plastic, and they are released all the time at a microscopic level. Meaning you actually need a microscope to see them. Its like a fine dust.

    Now think of all the plastic items you use and come in contact with.

    Toothbrushes for example, each time you brush your teeth the brisels break down at a microscopic level and are released. The plastic utensils you use either in the kitchen on your pans, or the single use ones for food, they all slowly release plastics. That plastic cutting board, or boiling water in a plastic kettle, yup they all also release plastic.

    Pretty much everything breaks down at a microscopic level, that is how knives become dull, or how items show wear and tear over time.



  • Any chance Jellyfin and Finamp have a music playlist and mix building feature?

    Plex has this with Plexamp but I have not had a chance to look into jellyfin to see if a plugin offers something similar.

    I hate building playlists, Plex offers a few different options like sonic sage, sonic adventure, artist mix builder, and automatic mixes based on past listening history.


  • The more alternative transportation options we provide in our cities and towns frees up that space for the remaining vehicular traffic.

    I have no idea why a large part of motorists does not see this concept. Instead they seem to fight against it in their own best interests.

    If you commute to work in a car and there are another 100+ road users with you all headed in the exact same direction, would you prefer them all to be in individual cars? Or would you prefer a few of those people take the tram, a few take a bus, a few hop on the subway, a few cycle, and the remaining few who can walk?







  • When I go for a bike ride with my SO we always ride side by side on streets that have a posted limit at or below 40kmh.

    We usually only ride side by side on residential streets. Occasionally we get someone driving too close to us when passing or shouting out their windows saying single file in the same way.

    Its like going for a walk, we would not walk in a single file, neither would we sit in a car in single file.
