Labour investment in cycling and walking will be unprecedented, says Louise Haigh in c/uk_politics@feddit.uk

Agreed.

They put in some cycle lanes in my city recently, but they change sides of the road at intervals and require cyclists to cross the road.

It's so much hassle and so much more dangerous that I don't bother.

What do all the vegan chocolate brands use? I assumed oat, but now I realise I may be wrong.

Outraged fans

The original flavour is still available and no one is forcing you to eat the new one, so...

It's funny how people conflate a home Internet connection (e.g. DSL or fibre), mobile data connections and WiFi.

We didn't have these in the UK.

So you leave change for people hard up?

We always miss out on those kinds of warranty in the UK, so best to buy one with replacable batts.

Microsoft boosts Windows’ FAT32 partition size limit after nearly three decades in c/technology@lemmy.world

That's what I thought!

The real issue with Fat32 is the 4gb file size limit.

Ugh. There's always a parent or two to buy an expensive toy and start a trend...

EDPM vs Fibreglass for a flat roof (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

Hi,

Any of you folks know about EDPM vs Fibreglass roofing.

I need to make a choice for a property extension in the UK. I expect rain, a few hot days, more rain, more rain, and some ice.

The roof won't be load bearing (people won't be walking on it).

Seems like every other website has differing opinions on what's best. I guess because everyone is selling something.

Any impartial opinions on what you'd use?

Cheers

Any durable double edged razors at the sub £50 mark? (lemmy.sdf.org)
 

Hi wet shave dudes,

I've been shaving my head with a DE razor for a few years now. I've had a few cheap £20 razors, but they don't seem to last me very long.

On one the butterfly mecanism broke. My next was a 3 piece, which I dropped and the chrome chipped off. They were both Parker razors.

After some research, seems the way to go for durability is steel, but steel razors (e.g. rockwell 6s) tend to be above £100.

I'm not sure I'd be OK dropping that kind of money, so I wanted to ask: is there a good durable DE around £50?

Some razors are marketed as "tripple chromed". Are they any better?

Cheers
