When you are in an climate emergency with bushfires, floods and storms you need rapid communication. The reliance on Facebook/Meta/ Instagram/ X platforms etc could be deadly when they could just be blocked as shown in the Canadian case with 5,814 wild fires.
How is Meta’s news ban affecting communications amid Canada wildfires?

Canada demands Meta lift news ban to allow wildfire info sharing
"The Canadian government on Friday demanded that Meta (META.O) lift a "reckless" ban on domestic news from its platforms to allow people to share information about wildfires in the west of the country."

Walkable towns or fossil fuel dependent car infrastructure?
Having the 9 am Belllingen traffic jam in mind:
“Poor planning and over-development in the once-sleeping... suburb has made overcrowded streets and parking a nightmare. It's turned what was a really beautiful little suburb into a place of a lot of frustration and disappointment”
"What we've seen overseas is this move towards a walkable city. Taking cars out, having really good public transport, having mixed-use development so you have retail, you have residential and then you have office buildings."

is it.. possible create offline package backups of stuff #installed ?
i know #deb files (#similar to #python #whl ) exist,
but usually, apt-get without internet is kinda :blobcatgooglytrash: ..
so.. is there a way to keep things "#offline" ?
(I don't trust package managment to have everything online always. #cdn . #repos, you name it)

You could write an entire new application without a single type hint in it, and it would work just fine. Static linters like mypy wouldn't be able to find as many problems without the hints, but that's a tradeoff.
Or does it somehow bother you when some #dependency has type hints in its code?

TIL: you can configure docker containers to start AFTER dependent containers are finished.
Perfect for migration tasks👌 !

Our food supply chain has an over-dependence on roads and fossil fuel
"Topography coupled with low population densities mean many regions are served by only one or, at most, two main roads suitable for freight trucks. We are nearly totally reliant on roads but our road networks are particularly vulnerable to climatic events and other natural disasters."
"As recent research highlights, there could be multiple benefits to reducing reliance on roads...Tackling our potential vulnerability to climate change needs to be undertaken in the context of a wider strategy for the entire food system."
