Smaller circle inside “what people actually understand”, “what people actually care about”.

Same in the US

Edit: it’s even in the URL

Does it work with password manager apps like Google keyboard does?

This makes Breezewood is one of the worst case examples of this kind of development. When explaining something it helps to use an extreme example, so I’m not saying people shouldn’t use the photo, but it’s worth keeping the perspective that that image is literally as bad as it gets.

I will say it is the worst place to be a pedestrian that I have personally experienced. Four lanes of constant heavy traffic with no sidewalks or pedestrian crossings.

The photo was taken near 39.998760,-78.242210 if you want to look it up on your map of choice.

That same photo of Breezewood PA that everyone uses.

Yes the US is ugly but that photo is of an extremely unique situation. This is the only place in a 2000-mile-long freeway where there are traffic lights, so of course businesses have taken advantage of that. It’s not a town, it’s basically a truck stop.

I-70 uses part of US 30 along a surface road in Breezewood, Pennsylvania. Traffic traveling eastbound on I-70/I-76 must exit and travel a short distance on US 30 in order to continue south on I-70 heading to Hancock, Maryland. The routing is similar for traffic following I-70 in the opposite direction: traffic traveling north on I-70 must exit and travel a short distance on US 30 in order to continue west on I-70/I-76 or to enter the Pennsylvania Turnpike. This is one of very few instances of traffic lights on an Interstate.

“All-one or none”

After reading the article it is clear to me that Meucci made precursors to the electromagnetic telephone but did not actually invent the modern version as popularized by Bell.

There is no solid evidence for him having created the device or even described how it was created before Bell. He experimented with a bunch of similar things, and filled a patent caveat that described the general concept (i.e. sending voices over a wire using electrical current), but it contained no details as to the actual mechanism. All his descriptions of how he created the device were made years after he claimed to have built it, and after Bell’s version was widely known.

Indeed, topograpgically it is not a hole.

Makes sense, my town only has 3 sets of escalators that I know of so I don’t see many.

I love walking and I do it every day, but I don’t want to have to do it.

I’ve never noticed this.

The upload function is buggy for some people, most of the time I have to upload to Imgur and paste the image url as the post link.

That’s the same as two cups of coffee, and pretty standard for an energy drink (slightly more than Monster original, slightly less than 5-hour energy)

Zero regrets. So far the content has been better and people have been nicer, the experience on Lemmy app I use is very similar to the 3rd party Reddit app I was using, and the official Reddit app is so much worse than both of them that I am not at all tempted to use it.

25 minutes of ads before every movie

Connect for Lemmy on Android. It looks nice and has clickable usernames/community names in feeds, a good community search function, keyword-based post blocking, and community/user/instance blocking.
