I'd guess Germany, since it's a VW and the artist is German, but I couldn't find anything authoritative saying the location.

Brilliant phrase! I'm an archiver myself partly because it takes me ages to watch things, and partly because some things get returned to again and again. I could definitely do with a cull, but it's easier to commit to more storage.

This feels very Star Wars

It could be that it's more normalised, or that post-Covid people don't want to share public transport as much.

Whatever the reason, it's good news as the more cyclists there are, the more that planners will have to take them into account - making it easier for more to become cyclists. Let's just hope the momentum continues to fuel this virtuous cycle.

I love it, I hop to see more.

Yeah, it's not very clear, sorry. I've edited.

It was $2 million in supplies and materials for the city, but the total venture lost him ten times that.

To be honest, that's an AI summary of the Portuguese post. I clearly didn't check it properly before posting and I don't know much about Ford himself.

Remember Hanlon's Razor.

e: The Portuguese post seems to be largely based on this Guardian article, that also describes it as utopian:

Ford believed fair treatment would make his workers more responsible citizens and, in the process, solidify a client base for manufacturers. The Rev Samuel Marquis, one the heads of Ford’s employee relations office, once proclaimed that Ford’s cars were “the by-products of his real business, which is the making of men”.

But some of Ford’s social ideas were highly sinister – most notoriously his anti-semitism, which featured prominently in a newspaper he himself printed, the Dearborn Independent.

Good question. I assume it's DHT delivering peers that aren't in the tracker(s), or maybe a problem with the tracker(s).

The format's "# connected (# total)" in every client I've seen.

Did you mean to link to right at the end? (You can remove &t=422s if not)

I'm out of the loop here, what's this about?
