the one where the democrats are the 'party of slavery' because of what the parties stood for in 1860. yeah that's why I'm voting for Lincoln and the union this year dumbfucks
A blockchain that uses proof-of-work would waste far more energy than it would save, just on doing the accounting. What blockchain do you propose using that would have a minimal transaction cost, in watts and in coin?
If we're talking about local charging of EVs, I guess that would be a little like putting a gas pump in my front yard for my neighbors to use. Probably going to hit zoning issues if you open that up to general commercial use.
How does a 'solar energy blockchain' know where the electricity used to run it comes from? There's no difference between 120v ac coming from a generator or coming from the grid, or coming from a solar array.
I used to keep a text file in each project, with todo items at the top and a 'done' section at the bottom. File gets too big, start a new file.
Now I use a note taking program that stores markdown notes with links in between them. Kind of the same idea, mostly, some notes are to-do items and others are lists. I have about 10000 notes in there.
I occasionally use curl myself but never really thought about what language(s) it used in its implementation. Curious if there are power curl users to whom its internal implementation details would really matter. For me its mainly just testing my own websites and vulns there are unlikely. If I was using curl to scrape a lot of sketchy sites I might care about its memory security more.
One thing I kind of miss is autohotkeys on windows. It was relatively easy to do things like set keyboard keys to act as mouse keys. I did that once when I was getting over tendonitis.
These days I have a keyboard with mouse keys on it and a trackball also with mouse keys. I can use the middle button on the trackball and scroll with it, but I can't use the middle button on the keyboard and scroll with the trackball, which would be more ergonomic for me. Haven't figured that one out yet.
That said, I mostly don't miss GUI stuff. I use a tiling window manager and command line utilities to do most things on my system. Its kind of primitive I guess, but the benefit is it works exactly the same on remote systems, headless servers, etc.
Elect lawmakers that would pass single payer, like they have in europe. However, this is an unrealistic expectation in our modern political landscape. So we need to change the political landscape to make that possible.
find a way to dismantle the right wing propaganda machine, or make one as powerful but not a fountain of lies. Difficult since the right wing has the full support of the billionaire owned news media. They are pros who have studied pyops inside and out and excel at it.
join the democratic party and attempt to overthrow its pro-rich leadership. difficult. Is it really a democratically run institution?
create alternative orgs
create coops and/or nonprofits to provide better options than predatory insurance companies. maybe easier because its grassroots and small compared to changing our national leadership. There's a danger of genuinely helpful institutions being outlawed due to mainstream medical lobbying.
direct action
we've already seen how successful propaganda of the deed can be. but will it actually produce change, or just lead to repression? it has at least communicated the extent to which Americans are disgruntled - not just the deed itself, but the overwhelmingly positive reaction to it.
general strikes, boycotts, other demonstrations might be a possibility. you need an effective campaign to get people on the same page.
Its mainly because of some music groups where I find out about local jams and gigs. But yeah its practically unusable. Have been thinking about starting a friendica instance for the music people.
So, what is the security surprise? “When writing an email in the Gmail app on your Android device, you can now drag and drop contacts in the addressee fields,” Google said.
Recently updated a nixos machine that was on the shelf for five years or so. A few options and packages had been renamed, fixed those, upgrade completed with zero problems.
Probably had a big fight with Jefferson Davis
