This seems like one of those terms without any clear origin, and the Wikipedia doesn't list this potential use as one of them. I'm not saying it isn't true (I don't know), but @[email protected] you could edit the title to something like "the term 'blockbuster' may have come from". Or even just add "[disputed]" to the title

I guess I'm out of the loop, why is Blogspot blocked?
Can you message me with the link? I can look into it from the admin side. You may need to chop it up into parts if the instance is blocking it:

A different calendar app might have something better
If you have a common pattern, you could create a custom calendar with that pattern. For example, if you always want 3 reminders for this schedule:
You can make a calendar with that preset, and then for any events that need that pattern, you set it to that calendar
That's actually around -18°C (to -23°C)
So it is in line with everyone else
What did you make the chart with? It's nice for something done on mobile
I like it! There are some third party apps using their API

I believe Waymo has a better set of sensors (Lidar + Radar+ Cameras instead of just cameras), more processing power, and more research / time / resources spent on it compared to Tesla.
So it's not that we aren't ready for self driving taxis, but rather about which cars are ready to provide that service

The new @pixelfed webUI is amazing, and I didn't even mention the new photography features 👀
We'll be testing the beta on a pixelfed.social subdomain next week, and yes, you can too.
So it looks like groups functionality is coming up, and it is separate from collections, which is getting a redesign. I'll have to investigate exactly what those new changes are, but it is exciting regardless!
That's a good point, it looks like one of the other admins has locked the extra post and redirected users to the post with more votes. In the future I'll do something similar based on which one was posted first

The article and original title: Vancouver's new urban forest strategy faces challenges, academic says
Excerpts:
The city's goal is to increase its canopy cover – how much of the city is covered by leaves and branches when seen from above – from about 25 per cent of the city to 30 per cent by 2050, according to the updated urban forest strategy.
The plan sets a target to plant about 165,000 new trees over the next 25 years, and encourages residents to plant trees in their own backyards.
And while the plan has drawn praise from one expert, both city councillors and staff have acknowledged there will be difficulties in meeting the goals set out in the report.
In the wake of the B.C. government pushing hard for cities to increase housing density, Sheppard advised councillors to minimize the loss of existing urban trees when approving rezoning proposals.
The other map:
Multiple councillors pointed out the stark divide in canopy cover between neighbourhoods.
Shaughnessy has 41 per cent tree canopy cover, while Strathcona — which includes the Downtown Eastside — has only nine per cent.
The difference can be particularly significant during heat waves, according to the staff report, which says that vulnerable populations in low canopy areas faced a higher risk of heat-related deaths.
Coun. Mike Klassen asked staff to explore how to reduce urban heat islands in neighbourhoods with minimal tree canopy cover, including a "GreenShades" system that suspends large sails with planted greenery over streets.
The updated urban forest strategy passed unanimously with Klassen's amendment.
