The landlords needs to give a written notice to the tenants at least 24h before they can give permission to the vampire. And the landlord needs to be present as well. Unless the vampire is a registered repair man, then the notice is enough.

These are astronomical seasons but around the world the much more usefull definition is a (annually) repeating weather pattern. There are rain and dry seasons that may be related to the monsoon rains or may be related to wind patterns pushing clouds away from/to a place. The amazon has wet/dry seasons (not rain season) that describe the water level and is dependent on the rain in the Andes mountains and not the monsoon rains...

Nobody cares if "today is the astronomical start of summer" if it is still cold and rainy. You say summer starts when it gets hot and dry (apply your regional variant of summer here).

Its good we have a study like this to put a number to the argument. However if you already eat to many calories anyway as many people in developed countries do, no additional food would be needed. It also just highlights again how eating meat is worse for the climate than plant based diets.

Not having a gender on passports could seriously impact your ability to travel when every other country requires you to fill in your gender (male, female) when booking planes, trains, busses or sometimes even hotels.

workable

No. It would require guillotining all billionaires, dissolution of a shit ton of wasteful industries (AI for example), vast reduction of meat consumption (which also means closing large parts of the meat industry) ...

Basically it requires the rich and powerful to not be rich and not be powerful anymore

Is it realy so incomprehensible to see how useful it is? I feel like most people in this threat just close their eyes and scream. Yes you can call, yes you can find a different solution to every problem. But it is still fucking convenient to just know where somebody is without you having to ask them having to actively respond.

I think most do. Everybody here only looks at the "controlling, jealous partner" and never at the actually "loving, healthy, concerned partner".

There's no upside

  • Know when they come home or if they are stuck in traffic
  • "oh you are still in the store can you get me ..."
  • security if they get kidnapped

It is insanely useful to know where your partner is. It is not necessary. It is still useful. I would not allow my partner 24/7 location information. It is still useful. I don't trust any app/manufacturer that allows such a feature. It is still useful.

I think this is what French balconies are for. You are still under your roof but also kinda outside

Its an exaggerated ~~non-~~issue

Linux is not a uniform userbase. Many systems will be affected by this. Many users will be fine because they use a well used and maintained distro. Many servers and embedded systems will not be fine.

That raspi running your pihole that is never updated? Yeah that might just stop booting next time there is a poweroutage and you wouldn't know what's up.

I hope your cat never finds out he could have been called ruby but you choose to go with rails....

Yeah most billionaires are billionaires because they own a company worth a lot. So their wealth is to a large part based on "what would they get when they sell the company". Beyonce is herself the "company" but there is no evaluation for how much it is worth to be Beyonce. She can get a lot of very expensive things for free just for beeing herself. And how much could she earn by "selling out"? Wealth estimations just don't make sense at this level
