Absolutely yes, if it wasn’t for the buses we would never go again.

The first time we went, we had a normal push wheel chair. The walk from our hotel to the Louvre was about 25 minutes. But Paris is so damn hilly. I was dieing from pushing my wife around. We would turn a corner to find the path ends with a set of stairs so I groan and we turn around to find another route.

Then we saw a bus turn up, lower itself down to meet the curb and a solo wheel chair user ride on. This changed everything and allowed us to enjoy the rest of the trip without killing me.

this one

My wife uses a power chair (cerebral palsy) and we love going to Amsterdam as it’s so easy to ride around.

Paris is also very good for disabled visitors but for a different reason: a great bus network that supports chairs (but the metro is gated by stairs)

There aren’t enough disability scooters

I don’t know. However I do see China able to pull their country together and achieve more as people are aligned, be it forced or not, having a common goal allows the country to do things other countries struggle with. Like the push for in house technologies and cheap renewable energy.

I feel like Western countries are grid locked in turmoil and in-fighting which prevents progress.

I’ve been a nova user for years. Recently got a new phone so looked at alternatives.

I didn’t like it at first, but Niagara Launcher has grown on me and I’m sticking with it. I feel like I can get to my apps quicker and the built in notifications are useful.

Being able to direct stream content from jellyfin without needing to repackage on the fly to another container would be nice.

It was rhetorical.

Well, if it said “The attacker gained access to systems in October 2023 and we patched out the vulnerability during March 2025,” you’d be asking why it took so long to discover the intrusion and why they didn’t let us know for six months?

The reasons for dropping Spotify are obvious, however pretext of this guide is that Spotify doesn’t give enough back to artists. So the solution is to pirate it? I mean yeah sure, but don’t kid yourself with the pretext.

How about a guide on ripping owned CDs?

They didn’t provide any real timelines, unless I missed something. Trust me bro, we shut it down real fast.

This got me. Very good. Much laugh.

That would be great, but then you’d also need to standardise driver api’s across all operating systems for it to be seamless.

This is what I think is holding back Linux adoption for end user devices. Only a handful of hardware suppliers cater for Linux directly, the rest are supported by the Linux community developing drivers where needed which will always be a cat and mouse situation.

I believe as adoption rate begins to intensify, hardware companies will take more notice and Linux adoption will increase exponentially. I think we are already beginning to see this starting.

I don’t have the answer but what an interesting question!

This is the problem with social media, especially Lemmy and Reddit. It is the default stance to assume a neutral comment is hostile. Why do we all argue so much? I’ve been there, but I’m trying to be kinder online. I think it’s a systemic problem and I don’t know the solution.

Haha they never get closed

It’s worse on mobile.

Doubt.

Mass surveillance is disliked by all.

Making it a political post is low effort.
