What is the best commune in Brussels?
No seriously, I need you to tell me!
For the annual Brussels Notes rankings, I'm asking people to tell me why their Brussels commune is better than the rest (or not)
So, tell me!

as a girl with a PhD in natural language processing and machine learning it's actually offensive to me when you say "we don't know how LLMs work so they might be conscious"
I didn't spend 10 years in mines of academia to be told ignorance is morally equal knowledge.

The Brussels-West police force - whose officer knocked down and killed an 11-year-old in the park, has decided:
- not discontinue car patrols in the park
- not force their officers to do bike patrols
- not integrate dedicated training on how to deal with kids

I think this is the first time I have seen this presented graphically. It really illustrates how cars have been designed by engineers to maximize their killing power.
In crashes, high-fronted cars typically strike adult pedestrians above the centre of gravity, often first hitting vital organs.
The higher the vehicle front the more likely a person will be knocked under the car, rather than pushed to the side, at speeds of up to 50 km/h.

I have a few questions about this tracking method:
1. Can't browsers block *all* non-same-origin requests to localhost?
2. Can @noyb.eu or someone nuke Facebook from orbit here?
