Well, yeah. My first interaction with the internet was a friend’s technical savvy dad who had compuserve.

yeah, I’d really like a thing like jellyseerr that’s easy to hook into the *arrs for browsing for suggested/popular/new music.

Funny thing, I tried using newsgroups for their intended purpose after rediscovering that Thunderbird is also a newsreader. The amount of topics is large (and really old), but the ones I checked out haven’t had many updates. Though i admit I haven’t been brave enough to dive into the alt. group yet. It reminds me of the internet before the web.

except SpaceX is selling for all we know to be military starlink with extra capability to the US goverment.

ReVanced patching will become more common

time to demand apps in other repositories. Bonus if it’s f-droid compatible

I’m no Elon fan, it certainly got worse shortly after he took over. You’re looking at Twitter through rose colored glasses if you think the last half of Jack’s Twitter run was anything but a disaster

It was also already gone to shit before Elon took over. Jack did most of the damage to Twitter and he’s why I never signed up for bluesky.

Also, ingredients to a recipe aren’t covered under copyright law.

How much is Jack involved? He was the reason Twitter went to shit to begin with.

And to be fair, there’s a lot more terrestrial things that causes GPS interference. I work with a guy that runs a boosted CB radio and it causes havoc with GPS signals. EM geometry is really interesting on how signals get encoded. It was fun studying how CDMA and GPS work.

TrueNAS is switching apps from kubernetes to docker. Might wait till October if wanting to spin up something new. I’ve got to figure out how to migrate my TrueCharts apps or find the equivalent when the time comes to upgrade

I remember my first serious build, blue acrylic case with as much black light reactive components I could get

Anyone know if this will affect the Edison motor guys? No one domestic would sell them axles, so they are sourcing their axles, some of their electronics, and batteries from China

Just wait, image manipulation will happen at image creation and there will be no “original”. Proving an image is unmanipulated will be a landmark legal precedent and set the standard for being able to introduce photographic evidence. It is already a problem for audio recordings and will be eventually for video.

Well yeah, I’m not concerned with its ease of use nowadays. I’m more concerned with the computer forensics experts not being able to detect a fake for which Photoshop has always been detectable.

It’ll sink in for you when photographic evidence is no longer admissible in court

Not common enough where anytime one happens it’s still newsworthy. We’ll see if that continues as the percentage of BEVs on the road grows

I still want an electric truck for random work, but I do love my bolt euv. I bought it with the intention of giving it to my kids when they start driving. The only thing I’d change if I could would be the DC charging rates. It charges too slow unless you plan events around charges and then it doesn’t matter.

If the truck prices weren’t so ridiculous because of all the luxury features in them, I’m sure I’d have an electric truck. When I searched for a base model Ford Lightning there were 3 east of the Mississippi and all 3 dealerships wanted $30,000 over msrp for them.
