More than 150 car models too big for regular UK parking spaces (www.theguardian.com)
 

While this is mostly about parking issues, the part that stood out most to me in this is:

A study published in the Journal of Safety Research last year found that children were eight times more likely to die when struck by an SUV than those struck by a passenger car.

Eight times! To me, that's insane. Even if it were 50% that would be very bad, but this is 700% more!

I never realized how small the number of official Arch packages is compared to Debian (13751 vs 171937 according to wikipedia ). And I see your point about Arch being opinionated. Thanks.

Interesting that you feel Arch is opinionated. After using several distros I finally settled on Arch because I felt it was not opinionated compared to e.g. Ubuntu. I have to choose and install every part of the system myself, and I like how that gives me a clean system. I like to use the Awesome window manager, and with other distros I would always end up with a different desktop installed next to Awesome. Can you say how you feel Arch is opinionated?

Nice, I was looking for one like this, that has plans based on usage and doesn't charge for every mailbox.

Here is a nice tool that shows 2 mono fonts and you pick the one you like best. Until you end up with a winner: https://www.codingfont.com/
