The last part of service section regarding the Afrikaans language test is wild. The sales flow is sacred and I cannot believe such a huge stupid blocker would get green lit into product.

In a work environment I can only assume they just leave that box in the flow but the actual session duration limit is set by your IT policy.

I have no idea why you are taking downvotes. Thought it was a good St. Louis reference.

Joctober and Novemy sound fun!

No medals yet but will check back.

Helpful context. Was wondering why a local business group would be opposed to 700+ new customers - that’s where a lot of the current customers probably park.

At the same time, this is NIMBYism. The Bay desperately needs housing near transit at scale and it’s brutal to see every single project face this kind of resistance.

I grew up in SJ, lived in SF for 10 years, and moved to Detroit last year. My mom is “concerned” about the larger apartment buildings building up near Meridian and Fruitdale because “people won’t be able to see the mountains behind the big buildings”.

Well congrats mom. You got your spot but I and the other people making under 120k/year won’t be there to enjoy them.

Brits are so fucking good at chants. Caught the quick rhythm and even the melody in just a bar.

In the US cops have been known to deploy ‘Stingray’ devices that spoof a cell tower and create a record of every phone in the area. In the context of a protests, these records could be used to determine who attend multiple events, who the likely organizers are, etc to create lists of undesirable people who may receive special attention from law enforcement.

More specifically, if shit goes down at a protest there is digital record of your attendance. It’s very easy to go from a peaceful protester to a criminal in the eyes of the government.

Sorry I read that in a different report here: https://apnews.com/article/iran-explosions-israel-tehran-00234a06e5128a8aceb406b140297299

Israel’s military said about 200 aircraft were involved in the initial attack on about 100 targets. Two security officials said the country’s Mossad spy agency was also able to position explosive drones inside Iran ahead of time and then activate them to target missile launchers at an Iranian base near Tehran.

Crazy that within just a couple weeks Ukraine and now Israel have successfully smuggled drones into a country. Terrifying new vector of war.

Got it so buy a second drive, and pay $15/mo to the cloud storage company.

The bay is a beauty! Welcome to Lemmy.

Don’t let the hustle or wealth grind you down.

If you got physical before they identified as police they would subdue you and then identity. That’s why there’s 8 of them for one arrest.

I think you’d have a good chance of getting off the numerous charges against you after sitting in jail and incurring thousands in legal fees.

Well at least Nicole from Toronto in their inbox.

Nice!! Did it take all day?

Man who doesn’t like forced press conferences runs for Mayor.

I think I become an adult when I learned most items including many plastics are not really recycled.

Seeing an infrastructure project come to completion is really exciting! Upgrading the service times of non express trains will be really beneficial.

The first thing that caught my eye was the trees. Then the bridge color. Then the perspective.

And then all the other details haha

Speeding is so common in California. The speed limit is typically the minimum speed of traffic.

Automated fining would be an unpopular solution.
