they/them
This has nothing to do with that. Signing in with an account other than OP’s wouldn’t have done anything.
What I feel is missing from the practical suggestions section: why cache images at all? They should be stored on the server they were uploaded to, and nowhere else. The image URL would be attached to the post, and could then be used by clients to fetch the image from the original server.
I thought lemmy did this, but it seems not (any more?).
They have used a file named “Thin Red Line for Nurses Flag” as the key for the red line on the map. If you click on the red line in the legend, it will take you to that file.
The article is pure fluff. (even includes “synergy”). Most sentences don’t mean anything. Was this maybe just AI generated?
Regarding the topic: if people wanted this feature, it would already have been implemented. It’s not like the topic is obscure, or that it’s difficult to implement.
[…] drones will carry items to Graemsay and Hoy where postal staff will complete their delivery routes.
Graemsay gets 2-5 ferries a day (assuming the passenger ferry can take mail), Hoy gets the same ferry, plus 3-6 a day at the other end of the island.
This feels similar to this experiment on North Ronaldsay, which already has 3 flights a day, which can deliver the mail. I think Carla (in the video) puts it well - there is the odd occasion where the mail has to be left till the next flight, due to the plane being overweight.
(Also, I don’t see how this new trial is more of a “service” than the North Ronaldsay one, so the headline is kind of incorrect. Also, “Orkney has become the first location in the UK to have mail delivered by drone.” is a complete lie, even thought they link the other article right below it.)
I’d be more interested seeing the delivery vans replaced with smaller electric vehicles. Usually when I get my mail delivered, it seems that the passenger seat is large enough to store most people’s deliveries.
Yeah, the Orkney Islands are also experimenting with tidal generators (Wikipedia/European Marine Energy Centre), though the weather there is ideal for wind energy.
I’m a techy, and I regularly take my cats for long walks.
