Please tell my neighbour with his 4m99cm (barely legal) van/truck... if I'm parked front side first (charge port to my shed) and he parks opposite side of the lot I can't even get out.

This is the main issue I have while using Lemmy for a few weeks now. Echo chambers really become each other's echoes. The amount of deja vu 'news' that I have already seen a week ago from another community on another instance is too high. The same discussion goes on repeat. Feels like going in circles.

For those concerned about the 'Signal leak'; Signal did not leak anything, Vance et al. screwed up their user access management.

Zen looks nice and some of the UX concepts (workspaces, glance, split sidebar from vertical tabs) work well. The 'fit & finish' and the way changes are pushed (unilaterally? Unvalidated with endusers?) feels very much like a 1 man hobby project though.

Canonical Ltd. Is registered in London, England. How is that a US organisation?

Pardon my ignorance, but why yet another fork? Aren't there already hardened distributions suited for government use? To me the hard part seems to be the services needed for enterprise mgmt; software provisioning, policies, user acces mgmt, auditing/compliance scanning. Perhaps a good idea to look at parties that can also offer 'corporate' support at scale. https://ubuntu.com/gov perhaps?

Can also try Here Wego. It looks a bit more polished and I have better success using its search function. Only downside: spoken navigation instructions are TTS only and sound quality is bad over Android auto...but I have them disabled anyway.

Yes, but a bad example of one very quickly heading towards autocracy. Some characteristics like screwing up your own economy and blaming 'the foreigners' rings a distant bell.

There's the Danish company Lyngdorf, who make the CD-2. It costs a whopping €2999,- though. NAD is Canadian and makes CD players around the €400 mark. If you consider Canada an honorary EU member that's an option ;)

Aren't there several companies that donate to both running candidates, just in a 'betting on both horses' kind of way? Just making sure you're in good graces with whomever becomes president.

Perhaps https://www.cheapasssunglasses.com/ ? While the shop is European (Dutch), I expect the glasses are made in China.
