  • Gadgets for people who don't trust the government

  • Our meshtastic network was pretty robust at one point. It hurts that I'm not at a good point geographically, as well. I have a massive ridge between me and most of the network. That also made technician-level ham pretty pointless from home. At one point, about 3/4 of our messages on our mesh was just people in aircraft overhead. I know we are flyover but it was very demoralizing.

  • We've had a pretty active mesh where I'm from but I see this very similarly to ham radios. They are great for specific scenarios but not terribly useful in everyday life. I still have my meshtastic node powered on but I rarely connect my phone to it to check things. When I do, there aren't that many nodes that are active.

    Overally, I'd say it's great if you can afford cheap hardware and/or want to build but you aren't going to get much daily use out of it.

  • Microsoft CEO wants you to stop calling AI "slop" in 2026

  • I have as much as possible. In my personal life, it's easy. At work, not so much.

  • How about we just stop using Microsoft products instead?

  • The Case for Blogging in the Ruins

    Jump

  • Thanks for posting this. It's a great, and very timely post. I've been trying to organize my thoughts on topics for a few years and can't seem to find a good medium for publication. I'm of the age where I've seen the concept of blogging come and, seemingly, go. However, I believe we are on the cusp of change with people growing disgusted with the current status quo. Long-form writing may be poised for a comeback. That would make it good to get back into practice earlier rather than later.

  • If Tom Cotton is against you, you must be doing something right.

  • I'm a bit surprised to see a permanent Arkansas license plate on it. There's a better chance of it having an expired temp tag.

  • Linux laptop that sleeps (S2 vs. S0ix)

  • Always did like the look of those models.

  • Thanks for the Archi Wiki link. I always forget about that thing. I'm a bit fan of the late model, low mileage computer purchases. They are cheap and I'm keeping something out of a landfill in Africa.

    Jump

  • That's where my AMD focus came from. I assume the BIOSes are different and may at least have the option to re-enable S2. I've seen a few of the 8840 processors and the laptops look nice. There's specifically an Asus one I like but I've ready mixed reviews on it with Linux.

  • I'd love a Framework but the 13 is a bit too small for my old eyes and the 16 is just too heavy. I've gotten spoiled by lightweight laptops. I was looking at that 16 for a long time, though.

  • No kidding. My old Dells are great but the newer beefier one requires me to spend alot of thought on keeping it charged. I went back to my M1 Mac just for the lack of worry about having enough power. I wish MS didn't have such power over the vendors but I also wish we could figure this out on the Linux side. I've searched and searched for an S0ix solution but finally gave up and asked here about other hardware.

  • I've heard alot of those stories but have never experienced them. I hope I'm not just trading one problem for another in trying to find a good sleeping laptop.

  • Ex-CISA head thinks AI might fix code so fast we won't need security teams 😆️️

  • Except that most risks are from bad leadership decisions. Exhibit A: patches exist for so many vulnerabilities that remain unpatched because of bad business decisions.

    I think in a theoretical sense, she is correct. However, in practice things are much different.

  • Unfortunately, humanity is better at making people feel small than building them up. And the folks who succumb to this are likely already in a compromised state so it will be hard, if not impossible, for them to pull themselves out alone.

  • Exactly this. It’s the same playbook for more than just those two groups.

  • Please let this be a snowball effect. We have propped up MS to the point that they don't care that they are shoveling shit to their customers. I hate that they are so entrenched. I'd love to see them fail miserably.
