Fietsen mogen niet breder zijn dan 75 cm, maar op auto's staat blijkbaar geen enkele rem.
Nieuwe auto's worden elk jaar 0,5 centimeter breder (en er staat amper een limiet op)
'Auto's worden steeds breder - 180cm nu t.o.v. 170cm in 2001'
Tijd op die trend om te draaien?

Tijdens corona deden we met de #fietsersbond in #Brugge een actie om de breedte van de straten op te meten en om te zien ofdat auto's er #fietsers veilig kunnen voorbijsteken. Veilig, dat is met een marge van een meter, zoals wettelijl bepaald. De resulterende kaart is hier: mapcomplete.org/width?z=13.4&l…

Extremely insightful article by the Weinersmiths on @foreignpolicy. Is space colonialism fueled by a wrong model of the so-called frontier? I have only a small comment: as fas as I understand 1967 UN Outer Space Treaty, land in space cannot be claimed by any country, but that doesn't preclude being claimed by corporations or even individuals.

#Google is turning #GMail from an Email provider into a website.
No more access via standard email protocols such as #IMAP and #POP
The final stage of #enshittification . Locking the users in.
I wonder how they want to get rid of SMTP as stated in the support posting.
I guess this means outgoing SMTP to forward mail to a real email server.
I guess without relaying I won't ever receive any notifications Google services send to me again as I don't use the Gmail website.
I host my own Email server for many years, thank you.
Timeline for transition
Summer of 2024:
If you (or your users) try to connect to a less secure app for the first time, you will not be able to. This restriction includes third-party apps that still use basic authentication, such as CalDAV, CardDAV, IMAP, SMTP, and POP, to access Gmail, Google Calendar, and Contacts. If you’re not trying to connect for the first time, you will be able to continue using the apps until they’re turned off.
In the Google Admin console, you will not be able to access the turn on and off setting for less secure apps.
Users will not be able to turn IMAP on or off in their Gmail settings.
Appreciation toot for everyone on #Mastodon following, interacting, and being awesome on this platform and helping grow the federated community.
You get one wool heart each.
Today's popcorn: This ISO 639-3 change request from [basically all relevant researchers and institutions of Karelian, as well as the Karelian language board] to merge the 'krl' and 'olo' codes because Liygi (Livvi) is considered a major dialect of Karelian by most speakers.
The opposition: Two dudes with very strong opinions and a bunch of ad-hominems against Prof. Sarhimaa, calling her an "anti-karelian activist" (LOL)
The registry: Oh clearly they're right, clearly this essay of insults is more scientifically founded than the work of these 8 universities and organizations combined.

CZ.NIC set an end to #IPv4 on June 06, 2032 in the Czech Republic. This leaves operators about 3000 days to go #IPv6. As a German, I hope that this puts pressure on all European ISPs.

Mozilla has accused the three major browser makers—Apple, Google, and Microsoft—of sabotaging Firefox.
The company says it launched a new issue tracker where it intends to document the ways in which platforms put Firefox at a disadvantage.

Big news in bug math. This is the first year since 1803 when both 13-year cicadas and 17-year cicadas will emerge from the ground simultaneously in the US!
13 and 17 are both prime. It's believed cicadas evolved to have prime-number life cycles, thus avoiding predators that emerge more frequently, like once every 4 years or 5 years or... whatever. By showing up infrequently, with a prime number life cycle, cicadas can starve out those predators.
And since 13 and 17 are both prime and 13 × 17 = 221, both kinds of cicadas emerge simultaneously only once every 221 years. And
1803 + 221 = 2024
so now they'll both emerge simultaneously and we'll have 𝑙𝑜𝑡𝑠 of cicadas!
Also, this year the two kinds can interbreed! Maybe they're be fruitful and multiply... and we'll get 221-year cicadas. 😆
