They literally copied their supplier ( autostore ).

Unfortunately, auto.ol shared secrets with them, Ocado abused that in court.

Literally, Fuck Ocado. I wouldn't trust them.

Autostore ended up paying Ocado? How did Ocado abuse them?

Deep fried Mars bars are an English thing.
bitdivision · 17 days ago
They were supposedly invented in Scotland, and I've not seen them sold in an English fish and chip shop. Go to Scotland however and they're not uncommon.

How does one use weather data in an energy market, if you don't mind my asking?
bitdivision · a month ago
Seems like it would be pretty useful to forecast the supply of renewables (wind, solar, maybe some hydro).

https://recipin.com Recipe extraction and archiving to avoid link rot and blog spam. No tracking, no JavaScript, no AI[0], and just a dusting of CSS. Source available to run your own server if you’d like (https://github.com/bradly/recipin).

I’d like to add importing from a Pinterest account and continue adding support for all the creative implementations of the schema.org recipe format that different sites use.

[0] My partner has a bunch of handwritten family recipes, so I’m trying out an optional extract from a photo of a hand written or magazine recipe that uses AI. Not required and I may pull it out into its own service that spits out schema.org recipes. We’ll see.

The OCR -> schema.org pipeline would be useful, I've been doing it manually prior to importing to Mealie.

> I'd prefer the overhead to show up as its own line item, rather than obscuring the actual cost of the service.

While that’s what you prefer, the market (most other users, including whale spenders) doesn’t care to know the actual cost.

bitdivision · 2 months ago
I don't think that's true, however doordash surely know that some users might think twice if they saw that number separated out.

I think the headline should more accurately be that repo.or.cz has a UK geo-block. I'm unclear why it has one, since it's highly unlikely either that the site contains anything that is covered by the OSA, nor that even if it did, the people running the site should care.
bitdivision · 2 months ago
It hosts user uploaded content I would guess, so presumably the OSA could apply to them.

You’re talking about completely different aspects of the product though?

The second top level comment also suggests that this the cameras manual suggests the camera itself might be corrupting things.

bitdivision · 2 months ago
Sure, it's a different part of the product, but still worrying that it may have happened at all.

Looking at it further though, you're right, this probably wasn't apple's fault.
