UK highways departments have had essentially zero budget for 2+ decades now. There's no funding to completely retrofit every single residential street to match the new signage. Most of them are already incredibly narrow and tight compared to your average North American street.

I'll take a look, cheers. Got an Raspberry Pi lying about somewhere I could use

I signed up for this month's ago and I'm still not in. Every time I log into the app to check my waitlist, I'm some random number in the 3000s, and not always lower than last time. Why is this do you know?

I assume the Siri and Google assistant white noise just download the 20 min file when you ask and just repeat that. Whereas an 8h podcast of a 20 minute repeated sound will use 8h of bandwidth

This will be controversial too but having the same community on each instance doesn't work either. There are 3 major Android communities and none have very much content, and lots of reposts etc

Really wish there was more content. I've been trying to post stuff but I never get any comments either. Anything other than the few mainstream communities is just dead

More video is uploaded every minute than anyone can ever watch in a lifetime. It costs money to store and serve all that.
