@Delta Chat why is there no choice between 5 weeks and 1 year?

#Delta Chat

in reply to 🌴 Seph 💭 👾

not sure. Maybe raise the topic at the support.delta.chat forum if it's of strong enough interest to you.

@Delta Chat Moderate importance, but seems a weird choice not to have quarterly and semi-annual delete options in there

Don't know, but I do like Delta Chat, except that they now started a background connection which is always open.

So Silly - Not Loud enough!!! So Stupid IMO!!!

Over 23,000 Chevy Equinox EVs hit with a recall for this weird reason

Small print on signs at a tram park and ride hid the fact I could get clamped

#Criminal, #private #parking corporations


Our car was clamped while parked at the NET Forest Tram Park and Ride in /Nottingham, and we had to pay £140 to have it freed.

The prominent signs displayed at the entrance state that those parking without using the tram will be clamped. We did use the tram to and from the city centre after walking in the adjacent park.

It was the enforcement officer who pointed out a notice on the BACK of the entrance sign which stated, in small print, that #drivers have to buy a ticket on arrival. We appealed citing inadequate signs but the appeal was rejected.

@Tiki Bunny Imports 🍹🐇🛻🏳️‍🌈 Any thoughts?


President Donald Trump Has Apparently Given Kei Cars the Green Light for the U.S.A.


Huh, we'll see if'n anything comes of this, Trump does have a habit of saying non-vetted things, but...

if this is true, then it will be the second of two things. He’s actually done during both of his presidencies that I like, and think actually did give benefit to the country. But this is Donald Trump, so it could be walked back in an instant either by him or by one of his cronies.
in reply to Xoa Gray

@Xoa Gray @Tiki Bunny Imports 🍹🐇🛻🏳️‍🌈 Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, but it'd be cool to see it happen, especially with the push back coming from a quasi governmental agency that's been leading to them getting banned.
in reply to 🌴 Seph 💭 👾

yeah same here. I would love to see them made just across-the-board legal. I’ve wanted one for years specifically a Subaru Sambar.
in reply to Xoa Gray

@Xoa Gray @Tiki Bunny Imports 🍹🐇🛻🏳️‍🌈 I don't think we'll see that, but there's a lot to do, after all I do believe the law banning them wasn't targeted at them, but more mainstream vehicles that were being imported, so exceptions could be made for them, from decreasing the wait time on importing them, kneecapping the group that's trying to ban them, simplifying the import, creating a special classification for them and maybe city cars, hard to say, Americanized versions definitely won't happen though.
in reply to 🌴 Seph 💭 👾

Oh yeah, there's a lot of things that could be done. But the American auto industry lobbyists are spending millions to do everything they can to make sure it doesn't. That's where the real fight is right now.
in reply to Xoa Gray

@Xoa Gray @Tiki Bunny Imports 🍹🐇🛻🏳️‍🌈 I find it hard to imagine American car company manufacturers worried about these, despite the increased interest, they wouldn't likely offer much competition as they're not a segment anyone operates in here. Now for side by side and UTV manufacturers, a definite threat.
in reply to 🌴 Seph 💭 👾

worthless drek. Kei cars as imports would destroy the US automakers. Domestic ones would suck and be ibscenely expensive so... Safe to ignore.

@the three-day monk The point is that everyone always trots out their not safe for our roads as a reason to ban them, and yet the same people barely even blink at the idea of motorcycles, scooters, UTVs and golf carts being allowed on roads, the latter two restricted to neighborhoods.

As to crash standards, I doubt the older ones are particularly good, the vans and pickups have little more than a piece of sheet metal between you and what you hit, though the newer ones are getting a small (very) crumple zone, and I think ABS now.

Hi Muse, I would expect nothing but a civil discourse from you and so I was just clarifying things, rather than trying to win an argument for the sake of a fragile ego. Have a nice weekend!

@Khurram Wadee I have a speech in one of my plays where a character goes into how important elephant poop is to the planetary ecosystem. The poop fertilises and disperses seeds, it also provides for critical insects who pollinate everything. Go elephant poop! hehehe!

Police banning protest against #King as #arrest threatened in Windsor


Anti-monarchist activists have said they were #threatened with arrests when they planned to protest a #royal procession in #Windsor on Wednesday

Campaigners said that they were told by #police they faced arrest if they protested near the royal procession, with police citing concerns about the banner and amplified noise.

Officers were also accused of telling protesters they faced arrest if they heckled the monarch.

Graham Smith, CEO of Republic, said: "#Thames Valley Police have today decided that #protests are essentially #banned. #FreeSpeech is conditional on arbitrary decisions by police inspectors, denying people even the right to heckle public figures.
