Announcing airbreak, a toolkit to jailbreak inexpensive CPAP machines to turn them into emergency #COVID19 ventilators by unlocking all operational modes and allowing custom software extensions. https://airbreak.dev/
@dthompson did they survive (or is the storm still incoming/in-progress)? What technique did you end up trying?
@dthompson hmm... Tomato cage too high for 60mph+. Would create too much of a sail
@dthompson if sides are high enough, could try a tarp over. If not, maybe bricks or something to add height (or a tomato cage in middle) plus weights on perimeter?

Signal is likely getting burned by their centralized approach exactly as I have predicted for years.
We need -decentralized- e2e encrypted chat servers so there is no central party to strongarm.
@matrixdotorg@twitter.com can be self hosted as a Tor hidden service.
@torproject why does the guardian project F-Droid repo only have 9.0.7? And also annoying that the version listed there is the Firefox ESR that it's built from, not the public 9.0.x
@mhoye depends what is meant by "out-there" but the moonrim is interesting.

@gael maybe repost without the fbclid tracker?
@mhoye I don't know... It could be used for comedic effect, too.
For those who didn't know: Google knows the geolocation of each Android smartphone user, in real time.

Zoom: lifeline and privacy risk. If you're looking for an alternative, try Jitsi Meet. https://www.forbes.com/sites/kateoflahertyuk/2020/03/25/zooms-a-lifeline-during-covid-19-this-is-why-its-also-a-privacy-risk/
@Gina might still be appropriate for you. TPM is about coordination between groups, clear communication, dealing with changing needs and expectations. It's managing devs (and others), not developing directly.
An analysis of the Zoom #privacy policy and all that's wrong with it:

In short: better don't use this for anything sensitive and don't make other people install the Zoom app - ever.
Many proprietary software companies are currently using the extended homeoffice situation of many employees to offer lock-in solutions gratis or even labelling them as "free". But take care to build on Free Software. Else your solution today might turn into a burden tomorrow:
@kyle if you get a chance, consider getting something like this. I found it to be a useful and inexpensive upgrade. Wastes less wort & easier to read.

@kyle interesting. Never fermented in keg (have used buckets but usually use glass carboys). Some get extra active like Belgian Quads, so having a blow-off tube option is handy.
@kyle a friend just got a BrewZilla so gave that a try. Curious to see how the grainfather compares
@martin mapillary or https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Photo_mapping would be reasonable, depending on the nature of the mapping.
