Someone on the train has just answered a call with "Sorry, I can't speak, I'm on a train". For a moment I thought the carriage was going to break into applause for them.

If Supermarkets really want to reduce food waste, then they should reduce the prices on a sliding scale leading up to the sell-by-date. Not just on the sell-by-date itself. It's ridiculous that a loaf of bread that goes off tomorrow costs the same as one that goes off in a week.

Women are watching abusive dynamics play out on the national stage and for many it feels very, very familiar to what theyโ€™ve experienced regularlyโ€”

I hope midterms are a referendum

Very knife indeed. As you say, it's gorgeous. I didn't think it was legal to carry it? I thought it was so close to zero tolerance it's ridiculous.
There's one on each of my multitools but they're for โ™ฟ repair OTG so can explain them. If you get a stone in your shoe you take it off. Not so with โ™ฟ.

I did exactly that. External drives, 42TB of backups, data files and media all on a Raspberry Pi 4. Plex filled the SD card and won't play a thing. I'm getting a 256GB SD / USB and cloning it into there.
If it fills 256GB with thumbnails etc then I'm giving up. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

When the UK is making plans for a fast-track service to end a person's life, while at the same time cancer treatments are delayed (only 67.9% of patients start their first treatment within 62 days of an urgent referral) - maybe it's time to re-evaluate our priorities?

Songs should all have a unique digital identifier, like an ISBN, so that playlists etc would be interchangeable between all the different streaming services.

I knew there was a change a short while back regarding cyclists & pedestrians but couldn't recall what.
My dad's well into his 80's so he's likely to stumble upon it on socials and I didn't know where else would feature it.

Dockless bikes are a great idea implemented badly. They get left on the pavement, blocking wheelchairs and buggies. What we should do is remove car parking space on ever street and require riders to leave their dockless bikes in those designated parking bays.

Hang onto them. You'll know what feels right when it hits you.
Maybe carry some in a small medicine bottle and scatter some in places he loved? If there's anywhere he always wanted to go, that's a good place to go together.
