@[email protected] like their content, but pity it is only really headers. There is no full text content.

@[email protected] on Manjaro KDE with Nvidia proprietary drivers mine works 100% on X11, but with Wayland I still get random freezes of about 40 secs to a minute. It's better than it was a year back when it would not boot into Wayland at all. I understand this issue is affecting some using the Nvidia proprietary driver and supposedly may be resolved with KDE v6, but I'm still waiting for the KDE v6 to hit stable release.

@[email protected] my biggest worry is that his Solid POD has been coming from about 2016 in design and was funded 2021 or so, and I remember it being announced in 2022 or so. In today's world, that is pretty slow-going. It seemed to always be imminent. I even registered a POD back in 2022... and then nothing still after two years. So many other decentralised protocols have been adopted since then.

Admittedly we do have an urgent need for one's own POD identity no matter where you are on social networks, but I still don't see how we're going to get ActivityPub, Nostr, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc to all adopt it.

@[email protected] thanks that sounds promising. I'd also seen some improvement but still got random freezes. Looking forward to the update. I have a similar setup with Manjaro KDE.

@[email protected] this relates to Lemmy versions in case others are also wondering what it refers to...

@steal_[email protected] yes by us, most have parking allocation at a cost per parking bay. But yes, if no parking bays then the City should be providing better public transport. The first prize is to actually have less private cars on the road, through efficient and safe public transport.

@[email protected] home owners would certainly charge their EVs at home, so the issue really is for those in apartment blocks. By us most apartment blocks have reserved/paid bays, so I'd imagine it must be possible to fit pop-up type chargers? I'd expect apartment blocks would have to make a plan of sorts to meet car owners halfway. After all, if you buy/rent any apartment today, it normally has electricity wired (and water piped, and often Internet connected) to the unit. Why not the same for a parking bay?
