I sort of love that these two vehicles have the same bed size.

The Kei's is actually a bit more useful because you can fold down the sides.

An electric Kei could be a game changer in cities.

Mozilla is truly an advertisement company now. From the bottom of my heart, fuck you, everybody at Mozilla.

The Internet archive lost its appeal in the HACHETTE case. What a huge, devastating loss for all of us.

The Android evil-genie promise: You may have an open source phone OS. But if you actually compile it from source yourself, you will be banned from running any software. Or at least, they'll try as hard as they can to ban you from running software. Also, if you decide you want to build or even *download* the source, you're going to need to purchase a dedicated 1 TB SSD to check out the repo, and also download our forked version of git to check it out with

@mhoye sounds like that's a step up from SMS, but the downside of centralized control with an organization hostile to alternative clients or APIs seems like there are more underlying problems with the idea.

No. Child porn is abhorrent, but the situation is more complicated than your question implies.

If you have a more nuanced take on the situation, perhaps a write-up of your thoughts and referencing those would be more useful than taking 5 second pot shots at people.

@csstrowbridge in what way is it a bad take? What's your take that is more correct?

Trying out censorship.no/ web browser (built on ). Interesting concept of p2p sharing of the public sites visited in order to circumvent censorship. Curious as to how effective it will be.

On One Wheel, the now defunct quarterly unicycling publication by the Unicycling Society of America, claimed that someone named Ben Dova survived the Hindenburg by fast rope descent for most of the way to the ground before gravity did the rest. Can't be real, right? Well

The trend of building surveillance into all new smart TVs is "incredibly invasive and little understood,” EFF’s Jacob Hoffman-Andrews told @arstechnica. "Nobody wants a snooping and snitching television, but lately that's all you can buy.” arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/0

@ojrask strava is a lot of things. It's a personal workout tracker, community leaderboard, social hub for friends and like-minded people, and data collection service. Which aspects are you looking to replicate?

Okay bicycle people: I know of Strava and would like to try something like it. But I would prefer something that is open source, community run, and maybe even something I could self-host. Any ideas?

Continuing the journey, finally got setup and usable. Integration with (via HomeKit which doesn't require any Apple hardware), IPP (can see ink levels and printer activity), and (can see how many devices are active and what they're doing). Need admin access to to see how the solar panels are producing. Also looking at frigate.video but it doesn't have an easy yunohost install yet.
