RSS is the technological backbone that enables the distribution and subscription of podcasts...which by the way is massive at the moment.

As others have stated, plenty of websites have RSS feeds.

Incus is fantastic. I think Proxmox is where everyone is migrating to after the VMWare/Broadcom fiasco, but people should seriously consider Incus as well.

When the UK was in the EU, hardly anyone I know voted in the EU elections, and equally they weren't covered by the media. I believe there was so little interest in the EU elections and it felt so far removed from the uk that I'm not sure it really counted as "democratic" (perhaps someone will correct me here?).

I'm hoping voters in European countries feel differently, I suspect not though.

I always thought a police state would demand identification at every street corner (perhaps I'm wrong?) and any minor breaking of the law being dealt with severe justice. The UK has always been against a "state ID" unlike a lot of European countries, so I'm not completely convinced the description of "police state" is accurate. In fact I think it's the opposite given people can freely break the law despite cameras being on every street corner.

The UK is basically an end-of-days advanced state: bureaucracy taken to the extreme, with a heavy dose of nanny-state "mind the gap" messaging.

Bureaucracy kills any kind of infrastructure project (see HS2), so don't expect any improvements any time soon.

We do have some nice cities: Manchester, York, Edinburgh, Oxford, Cambridge. (I've probably missed a few from this list). London feels pretty far from 30 years ago - and not in a good way.

A properly designed app would leverage multi threading to place any long running jobs in the background, allowing the user to carry on with other tasks.

Spinners should not exist in a local first app.

I'm in my mid-40's and I'm in the best shape of my life. However it's taken a lot of hard work and sacrifice, that I weirdly enjoy:

* Cooking all meals from scratch (I try and reduce UPFs as much as possible).

* No bread or pasta ever. Fresh non-supermarket bread and pasta is probably OK for you...

* Less alcohol (only on special occasions). Modern no-alcohol beer is actually very enjoyable.

* Lift weights 3x a week. I built a home gym in my garage, with a TV mounted on a wall. It's a great time to unwind, watch YouTube and get fit. It's alone time I look forward to.

* Walk every lunchtime for 20 minutes, rather than browsing the Internet

The key thing about exercise, is that if you don't enjoy it then you won't do it. For me, the alone time watching Youtube or listening to a podcast is the pull-factor. For others it'll be a sport playing in a team.

Food is the major factor in your general health, and we really have fallen into a trap in the Western world with our food habits. Fortunately we have a choice in this regard.

> Given that the US is now governed by Russian assets

Donald Trump has consistently and forcefully argued that European NATO members must significantly increase their defense spending. He has long criticized European nations for not contributing enough to their own defense and relying too heavily on the United States.

Why would you do this if you're a Russian asset..?

LLMs work on tokens. There's no reason those tokens can't be something other than text.

Doesn't seem to work? It's the pay walled site.
