SirQuackTheDuck,

I would expect that that 90’s car would eventually be able to be converted to hydrogen combustion. That would save on pumping up petrol (if the hydrogen is not generated with petrol) and it would not cost yet another car to be created.

SirQuackTheDuck,

The ICC in The Hague will probably bar tha- what? they don’t recognise that court? Oh well.

Good luck over there.

SirQuackTheDuck,

Yes, I’m done with all those near-identical motion flicks

SirQuackTheDuck,

not really to there being less physical obstacles

Depends on availability. Plenty of eateries don’t have vegan options and this is especially true for locations accommodating larger groups. Furthermore, a lot of vegans need supplements (as I’ve been told), which is also subject to availability.

Lastly, it’s easier to convince a thousand people to eat less meat – especially since they usually already have the ingredients required for vegetarian food at home – than to skip meat alltogether.

Two thousand meals a week that turned vegetarian is a lot more impact than 70 meals turned vegan.

How do I setup my own FOSS shopping website for my business?

Hello, I don’t have much experience in self-hosting, I’m buying a ProtonVPN subscription and would like to port forward. I have like no experience in self-hosting but a good amount in Linux. I’m planning on using Proxmox VE with a YunoHost VM. I already have a domain name from Njalla. I’m setting up a website for my...

SirQuackTheDuck,

You can’t get around JavaScript, it’s impossible to build a functioning online store without some kind of JS.

Well, sure you can. It will just be a pain to use for your users, especially when validation comes into play.

But a simple list with an “add to chart” button really won’t need any javascript.

SirQuackTheDuck,

You don’t have to be PCI compliant for stuff like bank transfers or other forms of payment. Credit cards aren’t the default payment method everywhere.

Maybe it’s pay on pickup, or just a simple mail with sepa wire transfer instructions.

Also, the PSP can still use JS but your site still doesn’t need to have it. Services like Mollie and Stripe offer checkout environments they host, meaning you still don’t have to use JS on your site.

SirQuackTheDuck,

Learning about different cultures is part of that cultures agenda!!!one!

Not like that “Christian university” won’t have an agenda of their own

SirQuackTheDuck,

It is, they’re usually posts like “bought your first house? Find out how housing taxes work on rijksoverheid.nl”.

The Dutch government seems to be pretty stringent on their single source of truth policy on the web.

SirQuackTheDuck,

You don’t. They’re usually posting awareness campaigns that link to government sites.

I’ve opted the example to elsewhere, but they’d be like “bought a house? Find out how the taxes work on (link)”

SirQuackTheDuck,

The posts aren’t constraining the information though. They’re effectively advertisements linking to the information (advertising they have info for you to read).

The information itself is public and freely accessible.

SirQuackTheDuck,

Nah, more like deleting explorer.exe.

There’s isn’t really a Windows equivalent for this, as Windows doesn’t give you control on this level.

It’d be as if you could delete services.msc but also the runner behind it.

SirQuackTheDuck,

Smaller? We’ll just have to re-annex some stubborn province to the south then. We don’t do smaller.

SirQuackTheDuck,

The humour is in the sweet releasing embrace of death

SirQuackTheDuck,

Kelvin: Zero is the freezing point.
Scientists: Of what?
Kelvin: Yes.

SirQuackTheDuck,

the worst are the black and one always looking for troubles

BLACK AND WHAT!?

fine. keep your secrets.

House Republicans Want to Ban Universal Free School Lunches (theintercept.com)

On Wednesday, the Republican Study Committee, of which some three-quarters of House Republicans are members, released its 2025 budget entitled “Fiscal Sanity to Save America.” Tucked away in the 180-page austerity manifesto is a block of text concerned with a crucial priority for the party: ensuring children aren’t being...

SirQuackTheDuck,

Except white men and controlling the rest, hence the support for a dumb wall

SirQuackTheDuck,

The Dutch news agency NOS published it something to the likes of “Putin wins ‘election’”. Not sensationalised and not “follow for more” stuff, and a shitton of factual criticism.

Pretty good reporting, given that they’ll still somewhat lean in to the charade just as they’re calling Putin a president, whilst he’s a dictator.

SirQuackTheDuck,

No, the title is subjective. It would be something like “court upholds fine”, nof “not hear out a party” since there’s often no room for a defence.

Highest courts are usually acting upon a “this judgement is faulty, because they didn’t allow x” or “… didn’t consider y”. Not “… they disagreed with my opinion”.

Google Allows Creditors to Brick Your Phone (lemmy.world)

I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they’re on a whitelist. No notifications from this particular system app (that can’t be disabled) until recently when it started making internet connection requests to google servers. Does anyone know when this became a thing?...

SirQuackTheDuck, (edited )

Yeah, this is likely something that’s configured on an OS level to talk to some server when being sold.

However, note that SIM cards can have a flag that might enable this app (given how much power sim cards have over phones)

Note: no source, just assumptions

Edit: second note: this app isn’t present on my EU OnePlus Nord.
