Less cars makes public transport better, buses can run faster and to a more reliable schedule. It was cars clogging up roads that resulted in the decline of most tram systems.

There’s no legal requirement, just as there’s also no legal requirement for drivers not to park in cycle lanes (unless there’s also double yellow lines), which renders most non-segregated cycle lanes more dangerous to use than not.

Yeah, ‘decline’ would be a better choice of word there
It’s a project to build a database of things that can be used to determine your location in the absence of GPS. E.g. if you know the locations of some wireless access points that your laptop can see, you can make an educated guess as to where you are. BeaconDB is a user contributed database of this information, to rival the closed services offered by commercial companies (like Google and Apple).
BeaconDB attempts to do all of this in a privacy preserving way.


If you’re using X, then the GTK equivalent environment variable is GDK_SCALE. (I don’t think the Wayland backend does this though)
E.g.
GDK_SCALE=2 gedit


NewBridge is cool, I love the things that happen there
Just to clarify, NextCloud aren’t forking LibreOffice, they’re forking OnlyOffice. They’re two very different projects (OnlyOffice is a web based office suite, whereas LibreOffice is primarily desktop based, although there is work on making a web version)
