This is how I sometimes take my dog on my bike for short trips:

dog sitting in a tub secured on the rear rack of a cargo bike

But the best way to transport dogs is using a trailer. That tub takes the place of the rear seat; so to transport kids and the dog at the same time I’d need a trailer.

hallettj, to asklemmy in Can Milky Way and Andromeda collision reconcile with an Expanding Universe with galaxies spreading away from each other like "raisins in a loaf"?
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

There are other galaxy clusters. Gravitational binding is not unique to the local cluster. From Wikipedia,

Notable galaxy clusters in the relatively nearby Universe include the Virgo Cluster, Fornax Cluster, Hercules Cluster, and the Coma Cluster.

The expansion of the universe is very tricky to explain. Oversimplifying can lead to an explanation that seems to be contradictory.

@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

By using one rail they can get two-way traffic on one set of tracks. These early units have an anti-tipping safety device that extends to the second rail, but they plan to get rid of that later.

hallettj, to linuxmemes in Old XKCD, still relevant
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

I think you want to remove the c because that means “create” an archive, and you’re missing a z which applies gzip decompression/compression

hallettj, to linux in Every time I search for a USB key, I end up finding the ones flashed with OS ISOs! I don't have a normal key anymore lol
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

This is why I switched to labelling USB sticks with two-character codes, and I keep a file that lists the current content of each stick.

hallettj, to science in Herpes cure with gene editing makes progress in laboratory studies
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

I’ve often thought that the people working on herpes treatments probably don’t get the credit they deserve

hallettj, to linux_gaming in Blank red videos in game running in Wine?
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

Thanks for the reply! Yes I have been trying WineGE. I didn’t realize it had special media support, that’s good to know.

hallettj, to nix in Recently started working on a collection of nix-colors adapters, what do you think?
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

Seems like a good idea!

Does it relate to stylix or ThemeNix? Does it do something different? (I haven’t tried any of these so I’m not clear on how they compare.)

hallettj, to asklemmy in In your country, what "common" animals are tourists most excited to see?
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

Good to know! I’ll put the Ibis and fruit bat on my Australia bucket list, along with a Huntsman. Although the latter are so widespread that I’ve probably already seen some living in America. But I’m guessing the Australian Huntsmen are a bit different from the North American ones.

hallettj, to linux in #147 Secure Keys · This Week in GNOME
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

Anyone else read these newsletter titles in Pixlriff’s voice? “This week, in Hermitcraft Gnome!”

hallettj, to linuxmemes in jk, we still love you Gitea ..for now
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

Sourcehut is already federated! The workflows use a combination of email (which is federated), and git clones (which are decentralized)

hallettj, to linuxmemes in you don't need more 4GB of RAM
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

It’s great that the system is so efficient. But things do come up. I once worked with an LSP server that was so hungry that I had to upgrade from 32 to 64gb to stop the OOM crashes. (Tbf I only ran out of memory when running the LSP server and compiler at the same time - but hey, I have work to do!) But now since I’m working in a different area I’m just way over-RAMed.

hallettj, to futurology in Deaf girl is cured in world first gene therapy trial
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

I don’t know anything about the treatment. But to be hereditary the genome changes would have to affect gametes. If genes are only changed in other targeted tissue then the changes wouldn’t be inherited.

hallettj, to programming in Integration Tests - What's New?
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

Modern frameworks like Playwright do a good job of avoiding those waits. So the tests are less flaky, and are faster.
