Because the backend for media storage in Lemmy is pictrs, and svg isn't one of the supported file format.

That said, I wish as the instance admin that we could store some custom emojis as svg :(

We could make them very light on resources, and easily scalable.

18°C is recommended, especially for uninsulated pipes and where the ambient heat may have trouble reaching, as these spots may get colder.

More importantly, check your home insurance coverage policy, some will set a minimum temperature to maintain to be covered, with some exemptions in case of a power outage and other things outside of your control.

Clothing

  • Make sure to have a good winter coat, neck gaiter, hat, gloves and boots. Staying warm and dry is important.
  • Hand warmers can be handy if you expect to be outside for a while. There are several variants (chemical, reusable, rechargeable)

Driving

  • Winter tires. It may seems like an extra expense, but it will make your summer/all-season tires lasts longer. In some provinces, they are mandatory for residents (ex: Quebec)
  • Make sure to clear the snow from the car, INCLUDING the roof (aka don't leave a snowhawk). Keep that snow brush in the trunk.
  • Make sure to keep your windshield washer fuild filled.
  • Have a small snow shovel just in case you get stuck in snow.
  • Keep one of those metallic safety blanket, and those emergency candle in case you get in an emergency.
  • A car battery booster might come in handy. A drained battery isn't fun.
  • Drice defensively, it's easier to lose control of the vehicle.

Homeowner

  • A good shovel to clear out the driveway isn't a luxury
  • Some sand in a bucket with a lid, to put over ice patches when it gets slippery. You don't need to put a lot, just enough to not fall.
  • Be sure to keep the temperature above 18°C. If the temp inside the building drops too low, ice can form in water pipes, and you can imagine the mess it can make when a pipe bursts.

At least not everyone is toxic online.

One option would be for the big manufacturers to ignore the market and see if new players are able to thrive in such a market or not.

If the amount requested is too steep, they'll end up with no new players and a shortage of high end phones, which is sure to piss off a portion of the population.

Of course, those that cares about fighting disinformation are leaving the platform, further concentrating the filth that prefer to hide the facts when faced with them.

Let it sink, it's unsalvageable.

Not very surprising, they'll likely push multiple lawsuits in swing states. At least the state justice systems learned from 2020 and 2022 and are expediting these lawsuits to avoid dragging them out and further erode confidence in the electoral system.

LegalEagle published an early access video on Nebula for their paid subscribers explaining the different scenarios to come, and it should show up on YouTube soon.

EDIT: The video is out

Personally I use it when I can't easily find an answer online. I still keep some skepticism about the answers given until I find other sources to corroborate, but in a pinch it works well.

Quebec is phasing out using these agencies, and it's bringing back a good portion of those nurses in the public system.

Hi, we've noticed some server instabilities around 9:20AM (Eastern Time) this morning and it seems our hosting provider had some issues, which lasted for about 40 minutes.

We also took the time to reboot the server after the event just to make sure we're not running into other issues down the road, sorry for the downtime everyone.
