Speedometers are not allowed to display a lower speed than the vehicle is running at all under EU regulation - see https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX%3A42004X0331(01)&qid=1752829119241 § 5.3

Displaying a speed slightly higher than actual speed is common and an acceptable margin of safety, such that if you are driving at the speed that the speedometer shows, you are more or less guaranteed to not exceed the speed limit.

The amount you are allowed to drive over the speed limit is in fact 0mph (0 km/h for us Europeans).

Tolerance of violations of this is a sign of a deeply broken society

I assume it must be a very misguided A/B-test, one which I imagine won’t actually roll out in the end.

May she have used it as toilet paper

Moose can be pretty good, but I think I would have to say Turkey

The joy of seeing the first tomato is almost overwhelming

Tangentially related, but I really enjoy Hard Fork, which covers the tech industry generally.

I’ll probably take my sunglasses off inside because it’s going to be hard to see.

If the inside is as bright as the outside, then I might be inclined to keep them on.

School started teaching it at age 9, but really I had started picking it up myself so that I could actually understand how to play the Pokemon Cards by age 6-7 or so

The sanctions stay basically only because of Florida having been a battleground state and Cuban immigrants being a significant voting bloc

Extremely weird thing to be elitist and off-putting about.

I’m pleasantly surprised to see this cross the threshold. I was kind of not expecting it to, given that it had something like 500k signatures a week ago.

Way to go, everyone!

Jellyfin is better anyway

I wish this were true, but as a multi-year Plex-to-Jellyfin migrant, I have to point out that Plex was the better software.

I still choose to run Jellyfin for other reasons (don’t like the commercial path Plex is taking, among others), but I still do miss the better reliability and larger feature set in the Plex software stack.

I wish that would go without saying, but current events are unfortunately evidence of that not being true.

This is true, but it’s important to remember that some regulations were not written in blood, but instead in racism - see R1-zoning as one of the most significant examples.

Regulations are just tools, really. They can evidently be used for good, and should be used for good, but some are being used for bad and should be reformed.

• Submit taxes
• Trim beard
• Seek healthcare for red spot on skin that won’t go away on its own
• Pack items in pannier for Monday

True, I didn’t consider that. This particular instance warrants a user script

Seems like something that should be upstreamed. We’re not on Reddit anymore, the source code is open and contributions get accepted. The need for userscripts has been removed basically

See the One Book-theory from the podcast If Books Could Kill

Because all self-help books are basically the same and they all fit that bill

Heavy on the sauce
