This is great. I have couple of those HP machines which are awesome but was just stacking them on my desk. 10 inch rack will be great for them. Need to do some hunting.

You dont need to explain email so federation does not seem to be the issue here IMO. The problem is money which FLOSS projects usually don’t have. The successful ones have perhaps enough so that the devs can put food on their table, but not much else. Most of the apps are after Dayjob hobby projects. It’s hard to compete with those who have teams of paid staff.

Disroot founder here 👋 if you have any questions I would be glad to answer. Been doogfooding all services myself as primary communication means. We are small team of ethusiasts and we mainly reuse code writtem by awesome FLOSS contributors in form of services. Not reinventing wheel here. Next year we will celebrate 10 years of existance \o/

Will GPG be baked into the app or still relay on third party like open key chain?

Still the forks do not bring anything to the table apart from stripping stuff. So still we are forced to rely on Mozilla.

Yeah sad to see this happening. Sad you need to reach for forks to have it fixed. And sad there is no other alternatives. Whether we like it or not, Firefox is currently the only alternative to Google’s monopoly.

Yes. been following his work for over a year now. I am in the process of building my house but hopefully next year I will have more time to work on energy side of things. I plan to build solar collectors similar to the one from videos where you concentrate sunlight using mirrors and heatup oil. If I manage to get good results and warmup the oil to over 100C (400C should be possible), I plan to build sand-battery in the ground.

Just another test.

Not everyone, but is majority is covered its fine (probably half of it would do the job). Usually parking places or places where you are allowed to park a car are marked so actually shouldn’t be an issue.

That’s undoubtedly perk of having a house, parking or dedicated spot. But even without those at least here in NL infrastructure as is is pretty good even for those without didcated charging spot. I thin what should be easily done is slow charging spot on every parting spot. Cost wise it’s not much and pulling max 2.5kw should not be much of an issue for the grid. In that way every car would have a dedicated charging to fill up over night if needed. Cost of such implementation wouldn’t be to big either.

It looks like the goal will be more people getting pissed at the climate activists. Which will make it harder for those who are actually doing something more then just publicity stunts.

Yeah infra is the issue. Which is stupid as providing simple (16A) socket per car would be sufficient solution for most cars. You come back from work or your commute and just plug the car to slow charger. Over night you are charged enough for next day.

Nah. Anxiety is something you have for first month owning your first EV. Once you adjust to the different way of using the car you realize you drive the same way as petroleum car. One important thing is being able to charge at home IMO. Even from just a socket (16A) is sufficient for most daily cases.

Finally a great action from those folks!made my day.

But all those actions are exactly same as signing petition. Just louder and in many cases made more about the protesters then the protest. It’s more like doing something so that you feel you tried and media writes about it which males you feel like you did the change. But nature doesn’t give two shits about the protests neither is the current economy of consumption which leads us to the disaster. Being on the internet, discussing this matter right now is contributing to the problem and only shows that our life style, which we are happy with is the problem.

And yeah blocking the street causes much more pollution plus losses off everyone, so not sure what’s the goal there either

But how is that action going to stop the water from rising. I am too very much concerned with climate change but I don’t see much point in those actions. They don’t really bring anything to the table nor have any impact on the matter, apart from antagonizing people to the issue perhaps.

Nope. We failed.

Battery size I think here is the difference. Leaf, specially the old ones come with 22kwh battery. My Zoe is 52kWh. Think newer Leafs also come with 52/64kwh packs but are much more expensive then Zoe. At least that was the case when I was researching it when buying a car last year.

And this is the most scary part of it. Specially that it isn’t just France or Germany but pretty much across the board young people voted for biggest populists out there.
