> vehicle sizes in all other countries have also been increasing

Yes SUVs are more common in Europe now but still size is much smaller than in US.

I just wish Homebrew was not planning to remove packages because of this.

Is there workaround? Probably. But macos lost benefit of OS X's "it just works". Time to move elsewhere I guess.

> AI is eroding copyright, so there may no longer be a need for the GPL. GNU should stop and rethink its stance, chuck away the GPL as the main tool to fight evil software corporations and embrace LLM as the main weapon.

Is this LLM thing freely available or is it owned and controlled by these companies? Are we going to rent the tools to fight "evil software corporations"?

I missed this one. What was it about?

I tested it using a local keyword, as I normally do, and it took me to a Wikipedia page I didn’t know existed. So thanks for that.

> So, I looked for them as well but few websites have them.

This is a bit surprising for me. I've just randomly checked news: BBC, Guardian, Norwegian NRK - all had RSS. But I'm not checking news that much so not sure about others. Mastodon and BlueSky are also providing RSS. I guess walled garden ones like Instagram/Twitter don't?

My RSS reader is subscribed to:

- one Youtube channel

- several blogs (most blogs do have RSS, for example Wordpress provide it by default)

- Hacker News (few keyword-based feeds)

- Gitlab and Codeberg projects (Github provides RSS, but I'm not currently subscribed to any, because I need to be logged there anyway)

- podcasts (podcasts are basically just RSS)

- few Mobilizon sites for events

- OpenStreetMap QA tool that checks my edits

- two subreddits

Maybe in general, you are right. I know just my bubble and even there are few sites without RSS (like Bandcamp).

For those that are subscribed to Youtube channels: no need to have account. Youtube has RSS.

Clippy (at least pedantic one) will suggest this if needed.

Ruter operates in and around Oslo where temperatures higher than average. Anyway some of old (diesel?) buses had broken heating and were heating even if it was warm outside. These are still improvement.

Just for curiosity there is also: https://github.com/cablehead/http-nu

Which seems like interesting UX.

It takes 5 years on average til you can harvest some grapes. 10 years for generating profit sounds about right.
