  • My neighbors GMC Denali parked illegally in front of a stop sign and crosswalk, next to my other neighbors Mazda Miata

  • I considered them too. They got everything nearly right, and then they put the HVAC controls on the touchscreen. If they fix that before mass production, I'll look again.

  • The upcoming slate trucks are looking promising. About the size of a Kei truck, and absurdly customizable.

    Hate the low default range though. 150 miles, and I have not yet researched the adoption rate of EV chargers for highway gas stops.

  • Hey, I'll take anything over being stuck on the cliffhanger of Eli's death for 20 years, and wrap up the whole Combine story as best as possible.

  • Microsoft laying off about 6,000 people, or 3% of its workforce

  • It's not on the list, but I've been rocking the same KDE fedora installation through about ten version upgrades. Once you dial in your settings and software choices, it's fairly solid.

    The only issue I can recall was some weirdness with steam's dependencies blocking my last version upgrade, but it was easily bypassed.

    Congress bill renames Greenland as Red, White, and Blueland

    Jump

  • Dear Congress,

    Can you please leave comedy to the professionals on stages and TV? Running a government is supposed to be a serious business.

    LibreOffice: We still see people on the fediverse recommending OpenOffice, despite it having year-old unfixed security issues

    Jump

  • I still occasionally slip on that myself. It's the first non-Microsoft office suite I used and it's burned into my memory.

  • Want happier employees? Start with a 32-hour workweek – and 4 weeks vacation.

    Jump

  • 32 hour workweeks AND lower the overtime threshold to match. And that's just using my office job as a basis.

    The threshold from part-time to full-time will also need to be lowered accordingly for grocery store/fast food type jobs.

  • Elon Musk's X lost 11 million users in the EU over the past 5 months

    Jump

  • Only for normal users. Politicians will likely get a white glove treatment due to the media shitstorm they could invoke.

  • Hell, I'd even settle for them using something like postybirb to multi-post across all three platforms.Bonus points if the ones going to twitter are cut off mid-sentence and replaced with a URL to the official mastodon post.

  • I swapped the entire school computers to linux mint

  • Sweet.

    I would have gone with Fedora in order to deploy FreeIPA for an Active Directory equivalent, but this is a good start.

  • Israel will not stop war until Palestinians displaced from Gaza and Syria partitioned, minister says

  • Oof...

    Not bad, but this is the sort of crass dark humor I would expect late on a Friday night after at least five beers with my friends.

  • Slate Truck is a $20,000 American-made electric pickup with no paint, no stereo, and no touchscreen

    Jump

  • Sweet. Hopefully those batteries will also be manufactured and sold for long enough for me to get at least one first party replacement, before having to deal with third party vendors.

  • You know what... Give me an option for a bigger battery, and ensure that replacement batteries are going to be available for a while, and I'll definitely look into it.

    Well then First Lady Trump should be more careful with their words, if they don't want 'Following the letter of the law' to constantly turn into 'Malicious compliance'.

  • life is simpler on europa

    Jump

  • Peaceful. Heh. It definitely used to be peaceful, kiddo...But those days are so long gone, and the moon so scarred, that those days might as well be out of a fantasy novel.

    What happened, you ask? Heh... That's a silly question. Human nature happened.

    You see, transit to Europa was never commercialized. Not back then, and now likely never will be. And yet, humans still charged forward, to that pristine icy moon. Charging so far off the beaten paths. Away from comforts, away from contact, away from society itself... Ask yourself now, what sort of man would willingly throw themselves such absolute solitude?

    Prideful, arrogant, and sometimes even criminal, for a moment, Europa was a haven to it all. An age of constant advancement, stoked by the fires of so many supreme wills.

    It was never destined to last.

    Amidst that multitude, a hunger as old civilization grew. The hunger of dominion, festering in a place packed to the brim with wolves, but not a single sheep. Is it any wonder, then, that all it took was a single spark of prideful dissent? Just one, and it all gave way.

    To want.To discord.To violence.To insanity.To ruin.

    No one can stop you if you really want to go, kiddo. Actually no, that's not entirely true. You'll probably get interdicted and arrested on the way back. So I'll just tell you right now, there is nothing left.Only ash, ice, and the remains of the fools of that age. Magnificent fools, but fools nonetheless.
