I was always under the impression that manhole covers were round for this very reason. Maybe I am missing something.

This... Both of my older Fords came with their proprietary Sync crap. It's a nightmare trying to navigate on a system that uses predictive text for street names that are newer than the last update ($$$). At least Ford saw the light and now let you use your phone with newer models.

France and Germany are doing it! They both have made a lot of software from scratch (FOSS), and in France they're actively aiding their local governments transition (hands on assistance migrating). It's an extensive collection of applications replacing everything from Teams to Office.

The French and German governments got together to release an open-source Notion alternative called "Docs", which is a collaborative document editor that could potentially replace non-EU platforms like Notion, Confluence, Google Docs, and others.

No Jews, No News.

Given their location heat is the single largest use case for their entire system for at least half the year, and in many places entire towns rely on centralized systems for heating their homes and water. Coming up with a narrowly tailored optimisation like this for that specific need makes a lot of sense for them.

Physical letter services can be replaced though. In Scandinavia, we have official digital mailboxes for important documents (government and businesses). It's not email, but another type of service.

Only certain types of private businesses (banks, insurance, etc) and government agencies can send you messages. Spammers and scammers are not able to send messages at all.

The mailboxes are free, but operated by private companies. You can only read the messages on the Web, or in the official app. You must use an official digital ID (with two-factor auth), but there are several digital ID platforms available. You're free to pick your own provider, but there are only two or three. There are fees for sending letters, but not for receiving them.

To be fair so is Dostoevsky.

Neither the far leftEuropean Union nor your own government are denying the UK's shocking fall into authoritarianism and the enforcement of de facto blasphemy laws. The only thing the Starmer regime can bring itself to say in its own defense is a pathetically ineffective rebuttal of its absolutely blatant two-tiered justice.

No they're being enslaved and gang raped by dozens of men a day including police officers in one of the largest organized campaigns of sexual slavery and human trafficking in modern history. One your beloved leftist politicians actively protected for years and are still complicit in to this day.

Your government literally just passed some of the most orwellian censorship legislation in the entire developed world, to the point even leftist NGOs are publicly declaring that the UK can no longer be considered a free country on par with the rest of the developed world.

Your government actively covered up one of the largest organized campaigns of mass child sexual abuse in modern history through literal orwellian unpersoning, gag orders, and secret sweetheart trials. Your prime minister was denigrating the very idea that grooming gangs existed as a far right racist conspiracy theory just weeks before acknowledging it was real and leftists were actively complicit in covering it up.

Today on "AmiMojo is actually really racist" we're informed that Sub-Saharan Africans are so inferior to everyone else in the world that they're able to be held back solely by people not having an intuitive grasp of other continents' sizes on a map that already keeps Africa extremely accurate and at the center of the projection.

And which civilized countries are those? Britain? Where about a thousand people a month get arrested as a sanctioned form of state repression for political dissidents? The EU? Where they just said journalists can be arrested if it's in the "public interest"?

It does seem odd... While I think there should be exceptions for satire, I support the idea of not allowing deep fakes for political ads. Lets hear the candidates in their own images and voices.

Echoes? seriously slashdot?

It's the same feminist group that got Grand Theft Auto pulled from shelves in Australia. They scream "incest/rape/pedophilia" in their propaganda but in practice they go after everything that's got even a Looney Tunes level of violence or mature content to it. Anything but the most social justice current year approved G rated pap gets tarred and feathered with the same brush.

Hurting innocent people while taking hostages during a violent riot that seizes control of a building is not "speech", it's terrorism and hostage taking. People are opening their eyes, it's why they're seeing through lies like yours.
