I had no idea something like this actually exists. Thanks for enabling me to know!

• make using public transportation more feasible and more comfortable than it is now
• maximize the walkability of people’s everyday environments
• the part of private car usage that is not necessary should be heavily taxed
• enable people to commute by bicycle in a way that is actually comfortable
• make sure villages’, towns’, and cities’ development is done in a way that supports building good public transportation (especially: don’t build cul-de-sack neighbourhoods)
• the part of car usage that is necessitated should happen with electric vehicles

These are measures that are being taken in various other cities around the planet. The Netherlands started doing moat of these in the 1970’s and is now a tourist destination because of that. People really like the urban environment that has produced.

Cow fart is mostly (or at least largely) methane. Human fart is mostly nitrogen. We are not cows; the whole thing about lighting your prrrrrt on fire is just a myth.

You have. It just takes mere seconds to completely forget about them when you wake up. If there’s anytime someone who will wake you up, ask them to immediately ask you what dream you were watching. You’ll remember it :)

I once had the opposite. I woke up to a dream because “the story was okay, but this thing is so horrendously badly directed that this really is not worth watching!”

People kept being shown either from too close or from too far away and the director was concentrating on a lot of irrelevant things, and omitting a lot that would be important for actually undertanding the plot.

The dream was not scary to any extent. Just badly directed. So, I “left the theatre”, that is: Woke up. and was annoyed because I had managed to sleep only a bit over half of what I would have needed to. And couldn’t fall asleep anytime soon after waking up. It did not help that I felt like an idiot for this conflict between the “viewer” and the “director”. Like, how the hell is this even a reason to wake up? Just fix the damn direction if it bothers, you stupid viewer. You two are the same damn guy!

My brain is not clever.

That has taken some resources to build. They have essentially filled the whole gorge with bricks.

And western Russia here means anything west of Tomsk.

I understood this as meaning that the file format must be supported by all government institutions. And it probably is supported. Up to a point. Because Microslop has a very bad-quality odf support in Word. Meaning: The support exists. It might not be able to read or save simple odf files that could be opened with anything else than Word, but the support exists all the same. Law fulfilled, all is good!

Yup. The Russian aircraft registration prefix for civilian planes is RA-. And you can see “RA-” written on the side of the plane.

Ei nyt varsinaisesti, mutta kai tässä näkyy se, että suomalainen ei valita, vaikka asiat olisivat miten viturallaan.

Sama kuin Helsingin joukkoliikenteen kanssa: Siihen ollaan erittäin tyytyväisiä. Ja käytetään autoa, koska Helsingin joukkoliikenne ei ole riittävän toimivaa. Jos se olisi niin toimivaa kuin jonkun toisen eurooppalaisen kaupungin, joka on saanut matalammat tyytyväisyyspisteet, he kyllä sitä käyttäisivät.

Jos suomalaiselta kysyy, onko hän onnellinen siihen, miten hänen yhteiskuntanta toimii, hän kertoo olevansa. Vaikka hapaat irveessä!

Lemmy is software. PieFed is software. And they have the same content. Okay, people hate the email comparison, but I’m gonna make one anyway :)

So: Google has programmed a web service that receives and sends so called emails for its users. And then another company, called Microsoft, has programmed another web service, that receives and sends those emails as well. “Email” is not a product of either Google or Microsoft. Email is not even software. Email is kind of… Nothing. It’s just a protocol. Email as a concept is just the data that travels between various email servers. Email is nothing more than an agreed-upon standard that various web servers programmed by a lot of different teams are all able to interpret more or less in the same manner.
The word for that is protocol. Email is not a program programmed by either Google or Microsoft. Email is a protocol.

And the same goes with this thing called ActivityPub. PieFed is one server software, programmed by a certain Rimu.

And then there’s also MBin. And bunch of other similar server softwares. This conversation we are now having is being relayed to the world by a server in the address http://piefed.social/. It basically shouts out all the activity that takes place under this post to whatever server cares to listen. And then the other server can replicate the content.
The “shouting out all activity” is done using a protocol called ActivityPub.

So, here’s this very conversation you are reading, seen from:

• A PieFed server at http://anarchist.nexus/
• A Lemmy server at http://sopuli.xyz/
• An MBin server at http://kbin.melroy.org/
• A Lemmy server at http://lemmy.world/
• A PieFed server at http://piefed.blahaj.zone/

As you can see, each of the links points to a different server. But it’s still the precisely same content.

When it comes to moderation: The admin on anarchist.nexus can only moderate stuff that is either:

1. published by users of that server
2. published in communities hosted on that server
3. plus: if the owner of some community has appointed them as a moderator on that specific community, then also there.

If a user from lemmy.ml is being an ass on a community hosted on kbin.melroy.org, the admin of anarchist.nexus cannot really do much anything at all about them. However, they can completely severe the connection to either of those two servers. That is called defederation. For example, many servers have indeed defederated from lemmy.ml, because the admins of that server allow their users to behave like asses towards people living under occupations by authoritarian colonial empires. And either you basically give those people free reign, or you severe the connection to the offending server. Users of servers that have defederated lemmy.ml have a much better experience, because they miss most of the tankie content. And people who are not pro-authoritarianism don’t really have any reason to stay on that server, so they tend to migrate to something that is okay with the concept of human rights.

For example piefed.social has defederated from lemmy.ml (EDIT: correction, no, it hasn’t But it has defederated from two instances that are even worse). That means, you are very unlikely to see tankie shit in the comments of this post. Anything coming from communities hosted on piefed.social (such as this one is!) or from users on piefed.social is invisible for users of lemmy.ml. And the other way around.

It’s a very interesting way to do moderation: You either moderate your server’s users in a sensible way, or your server gets cut off by other servers.
Defederations are done on a per-server basis. That means, comment chains can look very different depending on where you’re reading it from. Piefed.zip does federate with lemmy.ml, so a community running on piefed.zip is able to have comments from users of lemmy.ml. But a user of piefed.social will not see the comments made by users of lemmy.ml – nor any replies to them! That’s why many people don’t like to reply to users from lemmy.ml: A lot of people will be unable to see your reply! If you want to say something to a user on lemmy.ml, better write a top-level comment and tag them. Of course, any replies to their comment is invisible for a huge share of Fediverse readers.

So, he’s pretty far in the land of “FO” already? :)

No, Puolassa on joka tapauksessa jo valmiiksi 1435 mm rataa ja Baltialle tuo rata on puolustuksellisesti niin tärkeä, että puolustustarpeet ennemminkin vaativat radan rakentamista kuin viivästyttävät sitä. Ja tuohon voi käyttää puolustusrahoja, mikä parantaa mahdollisuuksia saada kansainvälistä rahoitusta.

Nykyään Liettuan rajalta Białystokiin asti on nopeusrajoituksena 100 km/h, sitten alkaa 160 km/h rata:

Baltian osuuteen tämä tuskin tosiaan vaikuttaa ainakaan hidastavasti?

Tässä on tämän uuden Rail Baltican linjaus välillä Kaunasista Puolan rajalle:

Varsin onnekkaasti se risteää nykyisen 1435 mm radan kanssa juuri sopivasti 2 km ennen rajaa, eli siihen kohtaan on helppo tehdä liittymä tuolle radalle, jos Puola nyt oikeasti keksii pistää kampoihin väitetyllä tavalla. Suunnitelma ilmeisesti olisi, että Ełkiin mentäisiin 234 km/h, sitten sieltä loput nykyrataa, mutta parannettuna nopeudelle 160 km/h? Tämä tarkoittaisi, että tämä tähän merkitty osuus mentäisiin 100 km/h, mutta muuten reitti Tallinnasta Varsovaan olisi ihan suunniteltuja nopeuksia:

Jos tuo 170 km väli mentäisiin ilman välipysähdyksiä ajaen jatkuvasti esim. 234 km/h, sitten matkaan menisi 44 minuuttia. Ja jos 170 km mennään nopeudella 100 km/h, sitten aikaa kukluu 102 minuuttia. Eli käytännössä tässä uutisessa puhutaan 58 minuutin, eli melko täsmälleen yhden tunnin, pidennyksestä matka-aikaan Tallinna–Varsova? Jos välillä on pysähdyksiä sama määrä, matka-aikaero on vähäisempi, koska jarruttaessaan ja kiihdyttäessään juna ei aja 234 km/h, vaan paljon hitaammin. Onhan tuollainen tunnin pidennyt matka-aikaan typerä asia, mutta ei se mikään šoustopper ole.

Kattoo ny. Ei tää mahdottoman huolestuttavalta vaikuta, kun Baltiassa kuitenkin on jo rakennustyöt käynnissä ja kalustotilausprosessikin on aloitettu.

There are also the other mosquitoes: those that are what a lot of birds, such as swallows, as well as many bats, eat as their main source of nutrition. Yeah, those mosquitoes do alsobl harass us humans a bit, but they are much more good than bad!
