Not sure raidproof exists. If they get there and it's running, all they need is something that is already connected and can read it, so your surface area is huge. If they know you have things they need, and are aware you are technically competent, They're just going to disconnect network, leave it running and call in pros. Anything is probably enough to get past local LEO, but if the feds come in, they're going to get what they want unless you're rolling your own drivers.
When 9-11 happened the Fukushima I couldn't tear myself away from the footage. Ended up being the same in Reddit with live updates, would have been the same with Tiktok I suppose but I never engaged on that.
I moved Youtube back to clients that only gave me who i follow, moved to lemmy/piefed.
I just want enough news to know what's happening. I don't need every gory detail or every opinion piece on it.
I've love to have private alpr's in my neighborhood. We've had mailbox thefts and people driving around breaking into cars, even had car stolen. These guys are changing their plates regularly, but it would be super cool to at least get a neighborhood wide alert if someone who's done done shit has rentered our neighborhood. I'm just not keen on giving that data to 3rd parties lock stock and barrel
Looks like it's a POC. The entire 2-day show was run on battery power + inverters. They set up a stage, lights, and sound, and ran it for long stretches without having mains available. No details on KWH or actual design; I expect the batteries were in trucks or sea crates.
I could see this being useful for doing shows in rural areas or older venues without sufficient power. It would also drive companies to make more efficient gear, which is something not commonly on production radar.
I've been looking through the source. I could totally fix it, but I worry no one would appreciate my code chops :) And I think the current work on the db changes might invalidate anything I actually try.
I absolutely hate what Plex has become. I bought a lifetime pass a long, long time ago, and ever since that purchase, they seem to have done nothing but strip features I need and force features I don't want.
Now if we could just sort the jf collections type in ways other than by date ;)
I just need JF to be in the same neighborhood as the corporate stuff for security and end-user ease of use. I can do a hell of a lot of complicated stuff on my end, but walking grandma through a change is painful.
Maryland scrapped single-use bags a few years ago. I doubt it did a huge amount to keep things out of the landfill / recycle stream, but it DID get them out of the local outdoor environment which is a huge win to me. I think there are slightly more consumers who use durable, reusable bags, and of course, quite a few with shitty reusable bags that likely won't last their own carbon footprint.
I don't think it's a winnable battle until people are in charge of carrying their own containers. Everything needs to be distributed in bulk. But if we just carry around a ton of plastic containers, we're just in the same rut. Metal sucks because you can't see through it and glass that's durable enough for the purpose is heavy AF.
When you're eating for one, you can get away with fast food. Sure, it's expensive, but achieving an economy of scale while feeding one person requires taking an Adulting 401 class.
You're gonna spend a lot, but less than what you would probably waste.
Your parents can buy a $5 bag of potatoes and make fries for days :)
My teen can demolish a family-sized box of mac and cheese and a side of veggies.
The real pain for your parents is probably waste.
7YO: I WANT NOODLES,
makes them noodles
they don't eat the noodles
Me: Why didn't you eat your noodles?
7YO: I DON'T WANT NOODLES!
Me: What do you want?
7YO: I DON'T KNOW!
I don't know what I'm making them next, but now I know I'm eating noodles for dinner... 🎵come on hot sauce, my old friend 🎶
You can also use HA's voice assistant app on Android. It's servicable, but the syntax is a little too rigid. Alexa had a certain level of ambiguity where it would infer the lights in a room or a single light and do it's best. HA's like WTF are you talking about.
I do worry about the longevity of unionization in the gaming industry. There's a lot of churn and high demand for the positions. There's remote work now, scabs don't even need to show up to cross the picket line.
It's crazy that they're going to cap Antkya to 3-5 stories for the whole city
Seems like there should have been plenty of better options for devastated cities, but perhaps the angle of improvement pushed NYC on top. Paradice was pretty much just phoned in :)
To reduce future fire risk, new homes in Paradise, California, must be surrounded by “defensible space” free of flammable vegetation and built of fire-resistant materials.
Yeah the cap they introduced is damning. They just cut it back a touch... Oh, if you want to play a lot, you have to pay just a little bit more. It wasn't enough to make them bank or pay for 15 more hours of server costs; it was a toe in the water to gauge the community's appetite to pay more for less.
That's indeed where they're headed. I was just clarifying what the service was. I wouldn't pay for the service. I buy/play what I can run. When I do buy a game, I try to move toward non DRM titles, if I do buy a drm title and there's a stripped version, i'll always tuck it away in case steam ever loses their mind.
Might be a bit pedantic, but it is good to note they're not actually FOSS, they're non-commercial source available.
The intent is somewhat reasonable, you can't use their source to make a commercial product.
That said, i'm pretty glad the FOSS community doesn't work that way.
Also of point, i trust them far more than any of the other non-FOSS options.
It attempts to set your bit, it has a 1:10 chance

Algos have us all doom-scrolling.

I even split on bluesky, wasn't healthy.
Fediverse is just about as healthy as I can find.

I think their naming leaves a lot to be desired :)
Pulled the CC data from downsub, asked AI to summarize, then reviewed the CC to make sure it was accurate.
It's mostly fluff centered around data about a couple of new packs and claimed ranges.
20 kWh Pack
30 kWh Solid‑State Pack
Claims to be largest motorcycle battery of its kind
SO they're decently large, can charge quickly, I'd be a bit surprised if they were getting those actual ranges in real-world scenarios.
One too many apparently :)
I'll survive.
100%
Ads, selling private data, adding AI, cutting features.

I love EVERYTHING there except
I can fix it, and it's no big deal, but I provide services to friends and family who'll need me to walk them through it.
That's the stuff where we lose out to corporate products.
