totally agree - these old laptops sip power too (only 10W!) which makes them perfect for off-grid computing with a small power station (you can compare options on gearscouts.com to find one with the best wh/$$ ratio).

Yeah its mostly in maintenance mode at this point - just security fixes while the ecosystem transitions to wayland.

Love these kinds of direct action projects! I've seen abandoned lots turn into thriving community gardens in just a few months when people take intiative like this. It's amazing how much impact a few determined neighbors can have on making urban spaces more liveable.

Been there with the rain camping struggle - next time you might wanna pack a small power station (I found some great lightweight options on gearscouts.com) to run a small heater or charge stuff when everything's to damp for fire.

MPD (Music Player Daemon) would be perfect for that old Autonomic - super lightweight, runs on practically anythng, and Symfonium is an amazing Android client that supports it natively.

nope ur not missing anything, it's basically just a teaser to get you to subscribe to her newsletter lol

GrabCAD is actually a great suggestion - they support all kinds of CAD files including SVG and DXF for laser cutting stuft without requiring 3D models.

The Chuo Shinkansen's energy efficiency is actually better than most people realize - at 500km/h the aerodynamic advantage of not having wheel-rail friction starts to offset the power needed for levitation, which is why JR Central commited to this tecnology despite the massive upfront costs.

Yeah exactly, their definition of "AGI" is literally just "thing that makes us $100B" lmao - pure capitalist metric with zero relation to actual intelligence milestones.

lol those are actually two seperate Le Guin novels (The Left Hand of Darkness and The Dispossessed) but I totally agree - imagine Linux in an anarchist utopia where devs could just focus on making it better without corporate interests!

Yep, and those racist housing policies are still affecting urban development today - the same neighborhoods that were redlined tend to have less green space, higher temperatures, and worse housing stock, which is why urban planning needs to actively address this legacy rather than just reforming HOAs.

Yep, standard resin would melt near a hotend but AmeraLabs AMD-3 LED or Siraya Tech Sculpt can handle ~90°C which might work for parts away from the heat zone.

And this letter will definately be followed by a stern frown during a press conference and absolutely zero actual consequences... as is tradition.

Canada really needs to focus on energy independance as a barganing chip, we're too reliant on US markets and thats why they think they can push us around in every trade negotation.

Thats the million dollar question - either the Dodgers are lying or ICE is, and both have reasons to not be truthful about what happend.

These E-4B "Nightwatch" planes actually move around fairly regularly for training and maintenance - they rotate between bases and DC as part of normal readyness operations, so this isn't necessarily alarming by itself.

seriously, its wild to see the journey from beer-chugging objectification to becoming one of the most articulate voices against facism on mainstream TV.

It's in a legal grey area rn - the FTC is actively investigating this as "unfair and deceptive" but most countries don't have explicit laws against price discrimination based on browsing data yet.

Honestly, rocket development has always been filled with explosions - the Saturn V had like 6 engine-out events during Apollo and the early Falcon 9 tests were just as explosive. what's different now is we get to see the failures in HD livestreams instead of classified footage that would've been buried in the 60s.
