On checking: You’re correct that the royal mail and the post office are separate organisations. They split in 2012. At the time of the majority of the active development of the horizon scandal, they were the same organisation however.

I would still want to apply the same test - not just demonstrating a notional or paper loss, but that something has actually been stolen and acquired by some other party. This was one of the signal failures with the horizon scandal: that it was simply a bookkeeping error and they were unable to show beyond that any theft or loss on their part or gain by another party.

Sorry but at this point my money is on the Post Office being incompetent and dishonest. They have form given the ongoing Horizon scandal.

• This is a newly introduced system
• There’s no evidence it has ever worked correctly
• I’m not seeing any corroborating evidence, e.g. people being prosecuted for making or selling forged stamps
• I’m not seeing an explanation offered as to why such forgery is only happening now as opposed to before barcodes were introduced

The article is from the guardian ( a reputable UK newspaper) reporting on an article by ‘Which?’ a UK consumer magazine with some very specific standards. The Which? Press release has citations.

This is the second order effect that doesn’t seem to have been at the centre of the conversation. It’s all very well if you are an established company who took out an office lease at the beginning of the 2020s, you have a bunch of boomer managers who basically need daycare, and the HIPPO at the top is also a boomer acting all entitled about having people come back to the office.

It’s something else. When you’re starting a new business and seeking investment capital, do you think your investors are going to want to spend their money on office accommodation and ability staff like receptionists, cleaners etc, if they think they can get equal or better results without it?

Yeah, it’s at least the second week, what with this and the 0.19RC ‘upgrade’ breaking app access I also have had to migrate

We’re now in the second week of an incompatible pre release version on SDF. Other instances have also reported federation problems with this instance. I haven’t seen any sort of statement here about the situation or action to fix it. People in glass houses etc…

I came to Lemmy largely because of the Reddit API switch off and that’s effectively what this instance has done…

I don’t know how ‘irreversible’ it might be in this particular situation, but I’ve had to fall back to one of my alt accounts on another instance. I’m not sure how sensible it is to stay on a smaller instance where the admins think it’s clever to deploy a pre-release server version to production without notice, testing, or a rollback strategy

Thanks

Thanks

Yes the update most likely was withdrawn for people who had not yet installed it due to a significant issue affecting Pixel 6. You’re missing absolutely nothing of value on Android 13 in the meantime

Hate to break it to you, but these concerns are pretty specifically about iOS. Pretty much all of them have been addressed since the beginning and continue to be addressed today adequately on Android

I think you need to read it as following on from

60. Turn the Moorgate line back into a Tube line

That takes us here

Blocking over 300 including ALL town/city communities because they are ALWAYS negative BUT Lemmy Connect also lets me filter (hide) on regex for communities and posts. This is invaluable to me- I was going insane trying to keep up with the arms race of cross posts to identical or near identical named communities on endless new instances.

Posts filter:

/elon musk/, /heathcliff without heathcliff/, /neuralink/, /furry/

Communities filter:

/politics/, /news/, /meme/, /humor/, /hentai/, /liberal/, /communis/, /conservativ/, /socialis/, /reddit/, /cursed/, /monero/, /moe/, /dank/, /yiff/, /shitty/, /horror/

Missing: The Overton window

And if my work use gitlab and I don’t code at weekends?

The thing is the VS code handles everything (with extensions). If I want to use pandoc, or CSV to markdown table, python linting, Go, whatever, there’s extensions that can handle all of these equally well and consistently, for example format on save.

If I want to use jetbrains then the pycharm for python, intelliJ for Java, Goland for golang… Then there’s licencing depending on whether I’m using a personal licence or corporate laptop, whether I have to get a licence from my employer etc.

For me it’s not so much that it’s so good, but that it works with everything in a consistent and obvious way plus I can install it on any machine I might be using.

I think it is better to have a small number of posts with real engagement than a large number of posts with no engagement on them at all

Inappropriate use of cat

I’d check that you’re actually installing the most appropriate package. For instance on Ubuntu there’s kid3 which is a MP3 tag application that will pull in the entire k desktop environment. Or you can install kid3-qt which packages its own version of those dependencies and doesn’t pull an entire desktop environment in if you’re using a non-kde environment.
