Is there an alternative app that offers a centralised account service but with user hosted servers?
- Comment on Discord heightens ad focus by introducing video ads to mobile apps in June - Ars Technica 1 week ago:
Their problem is probably that they actually took too long to monetise it.
Before Discord, groups were often paying for hosted team speak, ventrillo or mumble servers. Then almond came discord with it’s VC money and did what they did and more for free. Now most people probably are not willing to pay for what used to be a paid service.
- Comment on Major disruption as Heathrow closed all day after nearby fire causes power outage 1 week ago:
That’s going to be chaos for at least a week, (assuming they get power back today!)
Shouldn’t an airport that big have redundant power feeds?
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
The only problem with the bins that got removed had with wildlife was when wasps nested in them one year. They had sprung loaded flaps
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
Is only mildly annoying. Lots of people asking where the bins though.
I can see a lot of paper cups being left in tables etc
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
So only mildly infuriating?

As in, their reception’s front door has a letter box.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
They should give me tea in a mug instead of a waxed paper cup (and plastic lid!) then!
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
This is right by the cafe/site office/car park though. The reception desk is about 20m to the right and staffed during daylight hours year round.
Not like it’s in the middle of nowhere.
I get your point, there are very few bins elsewhere (mostly by the other car parks) and that’s fine. It’s just that the place that gives you rubbish makes it hard to responsibly get rid of it.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
I think the site office has a post box
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
No racoons here. The previous bins had spring loaded flaps to keep the animals out.
- Comment on The gentrified forest near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area 1 week ago:
They had some reasonably nice bins with wooden shells around them and spring loaded doors to keep the birds etc out.

- Comment on What does a week of groceries look like to you? 2 weeks ago:
I tend to spend a weekend cooking and freezing loads, then not really cooking for weeks.
So it’s a massive targeted shop every few weeks to do that, then mostly small trips (often on foot/bike) to the local shops to get milk and any odd things I run out of, or if I feel like mixing dinner up with something else.

Doesn’t that just mean that lower orbits can be used? Less air resistance?

I might just be bad at it, but all my games ended up being either a boring cake walk, or ridiculously difficult.
Never really got into it.

In nice weather? Pretty good, as long as you are staying the night… And don’t mind being tired… And don’t need to bring much with you… And can wash your clothes there before you cycle back.

Why would they volunteer to do up some land for you to sell for a profit though?
Seems unethical if your not telling them your plan.

Wasn’t there a spare of phone camera stabilisers being broken/worn out because they were strapped to bikes?

You want them all in one place so that they can be uploaded in one go to your fitness tracking site. That lets you see what your HR, power and cadence all where on that specific hill for example.
I used to have a Fitbit that used my phone for GPS and it was awful and drained the batteries on both devices. I guess the idea of having 5G is that you don’t actually take your phone with you, one less thing to have to force into your pockets.

An investment deal or something?
