Belgian here. It's about money and racism. Flanders (north) makes more money and has a higher employment rate. The separatist movement aims to put Flanders' wealth first.
Foreigners are perceived to threaten our way of life and are perceived to cost money too. Vlaams Belang has been rather controversial in their statements earlier with a new young team creating some uproar. Both claim to benefit the Flemish citizen and will create better jobs with higher incomes.
Far left also gained ground so we are becoming more polarised.
I'm not a legal expert, but this talks about "inability to fulfill a contractual obligation" rather than the refusal to do so.
I assume the problem is slightly different and it is mainly a problem of not being able to go after the money (perhaps at reasonable cost) if the travelers have it?
Mercedes's stars have been on springs for decades indeed. You can easily push them over (but make sure you put it back nicely). I think Rolls Royce's Spirit of Ecstasy pops back into the hood but I don't know how that works on impact.
I'm not sure either, but I'm happy it exists!
I own a 1973 Citroen DS Pallas 23ie with semi automatic gearbox. Few of these survived so it should be on the road. Yet "burning dinosaurs" doesn't sit right with me. Who do you preserve a car experience for if it will ruin them anyhow. The engine was never the DS's forté so an electric engine couod make a lot of sense, especially if you can simulate the feel.
As for hooning around, I guess it could be fun. It's been pointless fun on a track before. It would still be pointless fun. Perhaps it will feel a bit more empty.
I write my notes in org-mode. It's supported in many editors in a basic form, letting you add code snippets etc in an unobtrusive way. Using a well thought out format helps you in the long run.
I use this in Emacs, through which it lets me refer to emails, execute code snippets, attach related files, fetch content on/from remote servers, send off the debug session as an html email, ... Support will depend on your editor but even as raw text it works.
I don't use something specific to make non-code repeatable as you suggest here, but you could embed a test language in an org code block.
The syntax is straight-forward and exports to multiple external formats exist (eg: html).
https://github.com/mu-semtech/sparql-parser contains an EBNF parser for SPARQL, an LL(1) language. You might be able to borrow code, not sure how well it translates to scheme. GitHub asked me to log in to see the gist so I'd have to have a peek later.
sparql-ast folder contains the relevant bits regarding the parsing.
Nice script. What is the reason to toggle the brightness?
Set up a Matrix bridge and promote it too. You can't force a community but you can inform and give choice.
The writing style and positive fighting spirit of https://lemmy.world/comment/3597938 is great. Would read a book of this person.
Latest ollama has support for AMD GPUs. I had to compile from source to make it pick up the GPU on my system.
Has that changed recently? I've ran ROCm successfully on an RX6800. I seem to recall that was supported, the host OS (Arch) was not.
It's bridged to Matrix. Not sure about IRC but I think the libera.chat bridge is gone.
Depends on how much the old banger is driven. The tipping point is much earlier than I expected.

I'd love to drive the old bangers more though. The rumbling sounds and the hope it'll keep up as the engine gets pushed beyond reasonable limits before the inevitable gear change. The whistling turbo as you reach its zone and the gently ticking valves of a cold engine. But turns out gas guzzling fun was never going to be a lasting treat in our habitat. As I write this, our neighbourhood has a reasonable chance of getting flooded because of the strange weather lately, and I am glad I've grown to appreciate the lovely hum of our electric minibus.
We need to travel less and enjoy it longer. Much much less. Every region is different. Our region has good public transport if you accept cycling for 30 minutes. Traveling 100km for work daily is bad for the environment. So we mostly need a culture change here. And people who lack the funds seem to care even more for cars here so we need cheap electric cool econoboxes with too, I guess.
Kubernetetes is crazy complex when comparing to docker-compose. It is built to solve scaling problems us self-hosters don't have.
First learn a few docker commands, set some environment variables, mount some volumes, publish a port. Then learn docker-compose.
Tutorials are plenty, if those from docker.com still exist they're likely still sufficient.
Emacs: "What if your Operating System and your text editor had a child."
With that explanation I am still not clear whether the statistic on percentage of recycled batteries was car batteries, the battery industry as a whole, li-ion batteries, rechargeable batteries, ... I am honestly interested in which statistics you are referring to. Especially the evolution of recycling of car batteries and the regions where recycling and collection occurs.
It seems you are adding uncertainty and doubt on the topic of battery recycling which I'm not sure is grounded. We are well past the point in our environment where we can live our current lifestyle in the way we live it today. We have to adapt to a different lifestyle and make strategic bets. It seems clear that we should stop pumping up oil and electric cars may help there. I'm looking for research that indicates that current car batteries are waiting in stockpiles to be recycled but no plants exist to recycle them.
As far as I can tell, there are not even enough bad battery packs around to suit the diy hackers to reuse them for home energy storage and with some luck your research points me to where I can find them.
Are you talking about Li-ion batteries in general, or car batteries?
I don't think there are many car batteries to be recycled yet. Only the Leaf's batteries degraded sufficiently to warrant replacement and even those seem to be used with shorter range. Tesla batteries with faults get refurbished IIUC. The ev conversion market likes to use second hand packs and prices are strong because there are too few.
I have read that recycling is feasible and realistic but did not bother to check. Can you point to the research that says it is hard and that the batreries will serve no future use as is?
Agree.
I found it more tempting to accept the initial answers I got from GPT4 (and derivatives) because they are so well written. I know there are more like me.
With the advent of working LLMs, reference manuals should gain importance too. I check them more often than before because LLMs have forced me to. Could be very positive.

Perplexity.ai has been my go to for this reason.
It often brings up bad solutions to a problem and checking the sources it references shows it regulary misses the gist of these sources.
There sources it selects are often not the ones I end up using. They are starting point, but not the best starting point.
What it is good for is for finding content when I don't know the terminology of the domain. It is a starting point ready to lead me astray with exquisitely written content.
Find trustworthy sources and use them.
