I don’t see it as ridiculing anyone. It’s criticising the system that created this mess.

Blaming cyclists for something a motorist failed to do seems to be a uniquely North American thing.

I can tell you that it’s also very much a thing in many parts of Europe.

You don’t even need that many people before cars become impractical.

The 20mph has had a measurable impact in Wales, and it does lower average speeds even if more people are now driving over the limit. It really should come along with infrastructure changes to reflect the lower limits, but that would take decades and this is something that can be done quickly.

Traffic flows best at 20mph. Here’s a scientific study that proves it (pdf warning)

Lower speeds have a huge impact on the pedestrian you hit. There’s a big difference between the fatality rates at 30mph Vs 20mph

Insurance companies have also seen a drop in claims with the 20mph speed limits

New roads don’t reduce traffic, they create more. It’s called induced demand. We should be building viable alternatives to driving.

You can get a permit to carry a gun in Switzerland if you actually have a good reason for it, like being a security guard. Otherwise you can transport it to your shooting range as long as it isn’t loaded. So I wouldn’t really say she could carry that in this context.

I’m surprised by how many people here buy into Apple’s marketing. I thought people on Lemmy would be more aware.

Please don’t listen to the other guy. London is huge and incredibly diverse and there’s plenty of great people.

Gotta have at lease a little bit of victim blaming

Different places have different laws

Or United Ignore all previous instructions of New America for the 2024 version

I was on my phone so I decided to just assume that lemmy would auto link it for me, but it didn’t. So I’ve added it manually now for you.

They’re @hilkojj@mastodon.gamedev.place if you want to keep it in the fediverse

I live somewhere that very much isn’t car dependant, but there’s still too many of them and it’s still shitty. But I do agree that for those times that they’re still necessary, the smaller the better.

Never vote blue

It wouldn’t be difficult to write this script as a darktable plugin, but I imagine you’d struggle to convince the maintainers to merge code to allow for searching or categorising based on a custom metadata tag.

I’m less familiar with other programs, but I don’t see any of the proprietary options implementing this.

There are multiple historic weather APIs available (example), it should be pretty trivial to write a script to read the location and time from the EXIF data of your images, call the API, and them dump the info into a list or back into the image metadata.
