“We found there’s this perfect one-to-one relationship. If a city increased its road capacity by 10% then driving in that city went up by 10%.” Still one of the best articles on why building bigger roads leads to more cars stuck in the same congestion. Understanding #InducedDemand Via @wired.com
The concept is called induced demand, which is economist-speak for when increasing the supply of something (like roads) makes people want that thing even more.

A small step. They need to fear actual consequences, though. The message right now is that if they sell out, they can just fade away and retire happily, and that needs to not be the case.
@vic there's so much inertia in the CDC, FDA, HHS etc, and it's so entrenched, we'll be lucky if there's anything more than a few gestures. kennedy is dragging his feet
Yeah RFK is beyond compromised. I just want the weird stuff out of my food and water and the ability to say no to "mandatory" vaccines, but even that could be a bridge too far.
@vic you have to wonder why he's hanging out with rabbi butt plug shmuli and making such a bizarre post about antisemitism which is clearly outside the purview of HHS
@RapistGoku this is the committee that makes the childhood vax schedule so maybe they're trying to at least get it under control by removing the pharma shills. no biomedical researcher would go along with replacing clinical trials with AI. it's nowhere near ready for that.
@MountainJay That's better than a leash at least. Like putting a bell collar on a cat so they have a harder time hunting birds.
'course I had an orange cat that learned to stick a paw under the collar to muffle the bell. He was quite the spry hunter until he got molested by a raccoon and turned into the biggest cowardly cuddleball I've ever known.

Timestamps: 00:00 Intro 00:52 Sponsor: SquareSpace 02:06 Infinity Flex 14 08:30 KDE Plasma for touch 13:40 GNOME for touch 17:53 Conclusion
The device I'll be using is a review unit of the Tuxedo Infinity Flex. It's a 14 inch device, with a 16:10 aspect ratio, and it's entirely foldable.
The laptop is powered by an Intel core i5 1335U, so 10 cores, 4.6Ghz.
Because this thing weighs 1.5kilos. The touchscreen is a non glare 14 inch, 1920x1200 display. It's 400 nits, so decently bright, and supports 100% of SRGB.
As per the battery life, you can expect about 6h of video playback on that 55Wh battery.
In terms of build quality, the thing is very solid, mostly aluminium, with rigid hinges, that once set, simply don't move.
The laptop part of it is also really good, the touchpad is smooth, doesn't rattle in place, and the click is firm and nice. The keyboard has good key travel, solidly sized keys, and it doesn't make a huge amount of noise either. The webcam and mic are, as usual, pretty bad, they're laptop mics and cameras, they just aren't suitable for anything other than basic video conferencing.
The speakers are decent, they get loud enough, and while they don't have a lot of bass they don't distort unless you're listening to something really high pitched at max volume
Let's conclude on the I/O, here you get a barrel charger plug, HDMI 2.0, one USB A 3.2 gen 2, a thunderbolt 4 port, and a USB C 3.2 gen 2 port. Those last 2 do display port 1.4 and power delivery so you don't NEED the barrel charger, USB C works fine. On the other side, you have a webcam and mic privacy switch, the power button, next to a 2 in 1 card reader for micro SD or a SIM Card, a USB C 3.2 gen 1, and a 2 in 1 headphone jack.
The Plasma experience on a touchscreen is actually really, really good. The desktop automatically scales itself with bigger padding, bigger icons, more spacing in most KDE / Qt apps, the system tray icons also get bigger and easier to hit, and window buttons also get larger
I could drag windows to a screen edge or to the top, and they'd resize, I could grab a corner of a window to resize it, I could long press a folder in the file manager to get advanced options, I could long press on the desktop to customize it, I could even pinch to zoom inside the file manager or in the image viewer to zoom in and out, although it wasn't free form zoom, so not super smooth everywhere.
Only adding widgets to the desktop was not really doable, as I couldn't scroll the widget list, it instead started a drag and drop operation of whatever widget my finger caught.
The onscreen keyboard that's preinstalled here is called maliit, and it works, it has language switching, an emoji board, and it automatically pops up when you're in touch mode, if any app has a text field pre selected, or when you touch a text field yourself.
KDE plasma even works with the same gestures you have on touchpads, so 3 fingers up shows the desktop grid, 3 fingers sliding down show all virtual desktops and the window spread. 3 fingers left or right also switches between virtual desktops if you have multiple ones.
GNOME is on the surface, well suited to touchscreens. Everything is already well padded and easy to touch, and generally, it works fine. It does ask you to double click a lot more than KDE.
You can still use gestures here, 3 fingers to bring the activity view, 3 fingers from there for the app grid, or 3 fingers left and right to switch desktops. Pinch to zoom works better in the image viewer than in KDE, but it doesn't work in the file manager.
You can't drag a window to the top or side of the screen to tile it. You can't swipe anywhere in the app grid, you have to aim between app icons.
The onscreen keyboard is fine, and works well, but doesn't appear for KDE / Qt apps, only for GTK apps.
Generally, inside of GTK / GNOME apps, things work ok, you can scroll, tap, change settings, open menus, move windows around, but the functionality is still more limited than inside of KDE in my experience.
I did encounter an issue where sometimes, nothing is touchable inside of a GNOME apps, nothing works. It's infrequent, and not easily reproducible, but it happens, and it basically makes the entire desktop unusable until the app in question crashes.

I mean, if it's like the 2020 protests, or the Jan 6th protests, a considerable number of those masked people are likely feds (or idiots who think they're freedom fighters, but are paid for by feds) and Waymo might be intentionally running them in so those people have something to set on fire.
...or they just run set return routes and no one reprogrammed them prior to the riots.
I mean, they didn't have to put these here, or leave them here, but these police vehicles were left there, to create just this sort of photo. Its all fake and gay.
also the fact that they aren't using that bridge to corral and arrest every single person throwing rocks looks like a total setup. the city and mayor bass are ordering a stand down to let the tension build and foce the feds to do something
@meowski @djsumdog @hazlin No they need to just leave protests alone and not escalate them this far. LA has protests every day, they don't turn into riots unless a sports game loses or the cops agitate shit
@djsumdog @hazlin leaving it alone isn't really an option in this case, the protestors started escalating cause they're mad about deportations, and the deportations need to continue and increase even, so protestors need to be put in their place, and looters and rock throwers should be arrested or shot on sight preferably
@realcaseyrollins @djsumdog @hazlin no, definitely not. i'm just saying they were under orders "not to escalate" or "not to engage" by the mayor, for reasons.
this would be why they didn't just call for backup, say hey we're getting pelted by rocks, then some other units would go up there and beat the crap out of rock throwers and arrest them.
Question for #Linux #beginners and educators: What are some good intro to Linux books?
(Background: I'm organizing an #installfest at the public library and the Linux books on the shelf are from 2009-2012. I'd like to be able to recommend some up-to-date intro reading. The installfest isn't until Aug. 30 so we have time to get some books ordered and/or into the library purchase request system)

CBS News' CBS News National Correspondent Chip Reid lays out the challenges facing President Donald Trump, dogged by historically low approval ratings, as America enters 2018.
About 6 years ago. I went on one of those team building company retreat things. It was outdoors, on a hot summer day. One of my coworkers arrived in long gloves and a jacket.
At the time, there were reports of some bug bite that somehow made people allergic to meat. This person did not want to risk getting bit.
People who are hysterically afraid of germs exist.
I woke up a few weeks ago with a dead smothered tick in my side torso, fucker puked and croaked in my body, blew up like an angry bitch, took some ledum and applied some clay. Was fine a day later and still eating meat like it was free. Fuck fear.
If i had a choice between severe Lyme and severe AGS, I’m grateful at least to have the second, since I can take active measures to avoid getting symptoms. (Although airborne triggers drastically limit what I can do/where I can go).
— any strong odor, smoke, steam, fumes, etc., of any mammal food, while being cooked or still warm and producing smell. The smell of skunk is also a problem. Symptoms start within seconds of exposure, which include some combination of itching lips, hoarse and tight throat, dizziness, brain fog, joint pain in fingers and toes, gut pain and need to have diarrhea. (They vary from person to person, like some get hives, headaches, itchy skin…)
If I get away pretty quickly, the symptoms subside within an hour or so. Every once in awhile I’ll try to tolerate it for several minutes (like recently, to be at a wedding ceremony), but it gets increasingly uncomfortable. And one time last fall my blood pressure dropped hard, I froze up and couldn’t move (maybe from hypoxia?), and nearly passed out. I probably should have used my epi-pen that time, but wasn’t thinking clearly.
It’s drastically limited where I can go: no restaurants, convenience stores, friend’s houses, outdoor areas with BBQ smoke or other strong food smells in the air, and even some grocery stores with deli grills or meat smokers. I also haven’t tried flying, since it would be pretty impossible to avoid food smells in the airport and airplane. And I wonder what they would do with me if I ever had to be admitted into a hospital for an emergency. Pretty wild.
Supposedly only 5-10% of people with AGS are airborne reactive. I know several other people with AGS who get at least mild symptoms from airborne exposures.
I’ve read about such a wide variety of foods people can have airborne reactions too, including corn, seafood, soy, and of course peanuts and other tree nuts. Citrus is one I’d not heard of yet!
If you don’t mind sharing, I’m curious to know, do you start getting anaphylactic symptoms or is it more like a hay fever reaction?
@Peaceandprosperity @MountainJay Citrus. I can't be around when others are using spray cleaners with Citrus. Sometime, close proximity to someone peeling an orange or slicing a lime. No Lemon Pledge for me.
— I also eat a low histamine diet to help keep my histamine load low and reduce reactions.
It’s interesting to me that your triggers both involve high histamine. Fresh shrimp/seafood has generally accumulated high levels by the time it’s sold or eaten (I only eat frozen), and citrus causes histamine release.
Now I’ll be wondering if maybe my histamine could be increased through airborne exposure. 🤔
@MountainJay @Peaceandprosperity Shrimp causes cascade anaphylactic reaction. Citrus is sore throat, tonge swelling, joint pain, irritability and cognitive issues. There are others: egg, wheat, corn, hazel nut, almond, nightshades, black pepper. Second hand smoke (tobacco is a nightshade) prompts sore throat and an asthma attack. Lots of fun.
@SirJoe — ugh, that’s a LOT of things to avoid. 😛 And I thought dodging just mammal smells was bad.
SAAT acupuncture treatment seems to be working well for lots of people with AGS. (Though not for me, unfortunately.). It’s actually pretty much the only allopathic or alternative treatment that seems to help so far.
Hey, leftists, how about you stop it with the purity tests, all right?
Human beings are not designed to be in a panic 24/7. We've already got fascists and authoritarians and right wing Christian assholes trying to force us into panic 24/7 so we become exhausted, tired, and no longer want to do the work.
You're not helping if you nitpick people on the same side as you. Your way is not the only way!
Human beings need breaks to rest, be creative, and yes, be entertained, and if you criticize people for taking a break from the outward horror for as little as two hours, comrade, you need to go touch grass.

It seems like the vast majority of people who answered aren't beginners with Linux: 39% said they knew their way around Linux, and 10% said Linux had no secrets for them. The "middle of the road" answer, being "I understand how things wok, but I'm no expert" gathered 40% of answers, and only 10% of answers in total described themselves as what I'd call beginners, with 9% saying they had a lot to learn, and 1% saying it was a brand new world.
So, what is difficult to accomplish on Linux? What seems to be the most annoying thing to deal with is integrating Linux systems with other devices, 36% of people picked this as a pain point.
The second big pain point is "using existing hardware", 28% of people picked this as a problem, and finding compatible hardware was a problem for 24% of people.
Interestingly, installing Linux was not picked as a pain point, only 4% of people said it was a problem.
Most people who answered have experiences hardware issues on Linux. 44% said they had a problem they could fix, and 36% said they had an issue they couldn't solve.
In terms of the main problematic components, there were a few surprises here. First are GPUs: 34% of people said they had trouble with their GPU.
Also a surprise: gaming controllers and peripherals: 9% of people who answered said they had troubles here. Wifi and Bluetooth at 17% each are sort of surprising to me as well, I thought this was a thing of the past, but apparently not.
Now, as per software related problems, here again, Linux has issues. 48% of people who answered said they faced a software problem they could fix, and 35% said they faced one they couldn't solve. Only 14% said they didn't face any software related problems.
As per the problematic categories, the biggest offender is sleep / wake and suspend, 30% of answers pointed that as a problem. App compatibility is also a big issue, 29% of people said Linux wasn't a supported platform for the software they needed to use. Gaming is a sore spot, with 27% of people answering they're facing problems there.
So, 37% of people who answered said they could do most of what they wanted, but not everything. 33% said they could do everything, but some things were harder than on other platforms. 26% said they could do everything they wanted on Linux, and only 4% in total said many or most things they needed to do weren't possible on Linux.
As per the general experience of using Linux, most people seem to feel their system is very reliable: 56% said they have a few issues that don't impact their trust in their OS, 38% said they didn't worry about stability at all, and only 6% in total said they had frequent issues that make them lose trust in Linux as their OS.
71% of people who answered also said their experience with Linux was very good, better than other operating systems, and 6% said it was perfect without issues. 16% said it was good, and on par with other operating systems, and 6% in total said their experience was bad or very bad, as in worse than other OSes to downright unusable.
Most people also felt they absolutely needed the command line to fix problems on their systems. 50% said they had to use it a bit, and 28% said it was mandatory to get a usable system. Only 23% said they didn't need to use the command line at all.
