I think every government should be providing email service the same way they provide physical mail service. With all the rights currently given to physical mail.
We’ve tried that in Germany. The De-Mail was already dead when it was born.
They already are:

It’s both, a crater and a mountain. But, when somebody aims to investigate it, the quantum function collapses to either solution. The last time, it happened to be a crater.

For railway, there is already some neat project for visualising the reach in a certain travel time from any city with a station. https://www.chronotrains.com/de/explore
Depends, when actually speaking Swedish only with Scanian accent, they are ok to understand, but when switching to Scanian – impossible, but in a different way than the Danes.
Seconded, if Danes would take the hot potato out of their mouth and start speaking proper Swedish. :p
I assume part of the confusuion is that the earth is not flat. If one would create a Voronoi diagram on the surface of a globe, the resulting borders would still be straight lines, but, when projected, it depends on the projection, whether they remain straight.
The creator probably started with a Mercator projected map of Europe and then calculated the distance between any point on the map and all capitals. The distance on two points on the spere, however, cannot be obtained by counting the distance in h/v pixels on the map and applying Pythagoras, as Mercator projection exaggerates horizontal, east-west, distances. So one needs to map the pixel coordinates back onto the sphere and calculate the distances there.
It’s definitely a nice map though.
I haven’t found the announcement itself, but replies by Tumblr mentioning it.
Vaduz is the capital of Liechtenstein.
The conclusion of a master’s thesis at Lund University / LTH (Sweden) onto that topic provides some information on why green is chosen over red:
When it comes to the performance of green light in comparison to red light, we have seen that under white smoke conditions, on average, green light has performed better than red. While under black smoke conditions, red light was the better of the two, in line with the previous research. Nonetheless, the reason why green is the most commonly used color still remains independent of its performance against red light. As previous literature has proven, people perceive green as safe and tend to choose it over red in these situations.

As the highs lows are part of the earth’s atmosphere and thus trapped in a non-inertial frame of reference, they indeed experience the fictitious forces, such as the Coriolis and the centrifugal force.
Their skills store lists the Home-Assistant skill. Yet, I haven’t used it by now.
I hope it works out.
Usually, you notice it, as Mastodon automatically adds an @username@instance for everybody the commment replies to, Lemmy doesn’t.
The process of actually projecting the contours on the globe onto a flat (cylindrical) map is by either putting a strong light source inside the globe and place the paper cylinder around it. This projects the contours onto the cylinder. The contours then need to be traced onto the cylinder using a pen.
The other option, e.g. if the globe isn’t translucent, is to paint a longitude/latitude grid onto it and start with an empty rectangular map with the same grid structure. Then, for every trapezoid on the globe, its content needs to be transferred to a the coresponding rectangle on the map.
I’m pretty sure, we would use a costly alternative anyways.
Essentially, almost nobody ever used it, not even all offices and authorities.
