Donc voilà, j'en suis à "elle est triste et son patron essaye de la consoler" (LOL), j'ai lu 40 pages et après fallait que j'aille au kebab parce qu'il reste du beurre, du ketchup et des câpres dans le frigo et que ça fait pas un vrai repas.
Promis je vous raconterais la suite si je remets le nez là dedans.

People of Mastodon!

I'm researching the growth of ebikes ...

... in cities around the US

I've talked to many people who love them!

But also want to include the perspective of folks who have concerns ...

... i.e. about the speed and weight of ebikes in accidents with pedestrians or other cyclists, and the like

If anyone has thoughts they wanna share, ping me! I'm all ears: clive@clivethompson.net

Pass this along if you know anyone else with perspective they want to share

@clive I am very much pro-e-bike and use them myself (cycled "acoustically" for years before I got osteoarthritis in the knees).

My concern is that car-centrists have looked at California's e-bike definitions and created what is essentially an electric Vespa without the regulations & training a Vespa driver would be subject to.

This stokes ire against cyclists & increases crackdowns on all e-cycle riders instead of drivers.

For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.

I’ve managed to get Recall working in full on a non-Copilot+ system, without an NPU. Will accelerate testing.

** IT’S HERE! FRIDAY NIGHT MUSIC THREAD ON **

Tonight’s theme is:

🛼📺🎞️👾 TOTALLY 80s! 🕹️🎸💿💾


🎵 Like, gag me with a spoon! Another decade theme night?

Take a chill pill and post totally tubular bodacious music from the 80s along with what you’re drinking. 🎶

🍷 Axel F / Tears for Fears / DeBarge / Sade / Madonna / Simple Minds + Sex On The Beach🍸

Post often • share • make some friends

Compilation of 80s music videos and ...I love them. People think the 80s had the worst music? 90s were meh with some flashes of brilliance. And has pop music even changed since the 2000s? Clear channel garbage: you're wrong.

Toronto Council meets today! Mayor Olivia Chow has designated an item about the not-so-great condition of Toronto’s infrastructure assets as her first key matter, so that’ll be up first.

Meeting is streaming here. I’ll do it live. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT1kzFzYcvM

“It’s the Great Canadian Swindle,” says Perks, of feds and province downloading infra costs to municipalities.

He quotes Hazel McCallion: “The federal government has the money, the provinces have the authority, and municipal governments have to clean up the mess.”

GraphicMatt,
@GraphicMatt@mastodon.social avatar

And that will wrap things up for today. Council will reconvene at 9:30 a.m. to tackle an agenda that somehow still has 61 items on it. (28 regular items and 33 member motions.)

See you back here tomorrow morning. First up: e-scooters — threat or menace?

Have y'all ever had someone act like you were hurting them somehow by just liking a food?

Any time I buy or make kimchi, my Mom says it's so gross and she doesn't want any and just on and on. I never offer it to her, or make group food with it, but for some reason she seems offended by it, and I don't know why.

justafrog,
@justafrog@mstdn.social avatar

@RickiTarr I've had this a lot.

"Solved" it by pretending the food in question doesn't exist in front of the people who will not shut up about how much they hate what I'm eating.

It's such irritating behaviour and I will like people less for giving me a list of foods which may not be mentioned in their presence.

KatM,
@KatM@mastodon.social avatar

@RickiTarr Love kimchi and it’s really good for your gut microbiome! I have some in my fridge right now.

I lived 12 years in Boulder, CO. You’ve never met so many food judgy folks in your life.

“Ew, you eat onion rings? That’s so gross!”

Dude, I don’t eat them daily. I have them maybe once a year. You just happened to see that 1x this year.

Throwing a kid’s birthday party was a nightmare. Every guest child arrived with food instructions and/or their own food.

4 years to the day after George Floyd was murdered, here's where we are:

  • Racist people are just as racist as the day before George Floyd was murdered.

  • Black people are still asking for the exact same things.

  • "Liberal" and "Centrist" white Americans are more racist, and less supportive of DEI than they were the day before George Floyd.

  • Police budgets have grown faster than they did the day before George Floyd.

  • Biden has undone any of the gains made during the protests.

@mekkaokereke @SnerkRabbledauber @PizzaDemon when roughly 50% of voting age population doesn't vote there is always a larger trend.

And not to say they are silent majority or something, because they are not that at all. They are polyglot mix of views and individuals.

So, yes white women seem to be a belweather but they are far from the entirety of the picture. And trying to get those who are edge cases to vote for your guy is what running a general campaign is about.

mekkaokereke,
@mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io avatar

@InkySchwartz @SnerkRabbledauber @PizzaDemon

I disagree with everything that you just wrote.

It's not that 50% doesn't vote. It's that US racism prevents higher turnout.

🤡And white women aren't a "bellwether" of voting trends by women of other races. That's such a silly white-centering viewpoint, that I don't even want to discuss it. White women have been voting this way for at least the past 80 years, and there is no indication that any other women will follow them.

@uichelorraine @niavy @Ju_ Oui ça c'est un gros problème. Alors que le format OpenDocument (utilisé par LibreOffice, supporté par Microsoft Office aussi même si tout est fait pour que non) est promu par l'UE mais aussi individuellement par le Danemark et le Portugal, est le standard officiel pour l'OTAN, le Royaume-Uni, la Russie (!) , la Belgique…

Mais non, les boîtes imposent partout les formats Microsoft. Et cette horreur de Teams pour les réunions – t'as beau faire tout ce que tu peux en interne, dès qu'il y a du taf avec des partenaires c'est la merde.
