Fond memories of TWiT in the early 2000s and his longstanding media deconstruction and analysis on the No Agenda show, where they eschew traditional advertising, run on open source software, build community, and rely on…
The New York Times can suck a lemon, 40 minutes of my life, multiple calls and transfers to cancel a subscription. Hopefully this will be meaningfully enforced.
"...so there's no real environmental or economic reason to repair the old ones" The environmental benefit to EVs with long service lives is substantial vs. crushing one in a landfill six years after it rolls off the…
Thread / matter network seems to be beginning to integrate connected home devices across the big cloud vendors. Door & window sensors, temp/humidity sensor, lock are 'endpoints' and use low power, light bulbs & strips,…
The United States recognizes the People's Republic of China as the sole legal government of China and acknowledges the Chinese position that Taiwan is part of China. This is known as the "One China policy". The United…
New cable, tried both ports. The update was the only x-factor.
This is good advice. I kept my 4k Vizio offline until updating the firmware on a whim. The update broke the ability to run 1080p@60hz from my PC, making it effectively useless for normal use. The annoying part about the…
Would an ARM-based mainboard variant be a possibility down the line?
Accounting for economic units is evident as far back as the Akkadian empire 5,000 years ago. Double-entry bookkeeping, central banking, ACH, SWIFT, etc. are iterations on a theme. CBDCs represent an incremental shift…
ZSA moonlander has been a joy to use. After a few iterations using their highly polished and user friendly customization tools, I found a great layout and have been using it for over a year. Going between Planck (kit,…
Toyota Tercel SR5, VW Diesel Rabbit, Toyota Pickup, Tacoma, etc. are all enjoyable to drive with a standard (manual) transmission. It is also a joy to be able to service and replace the clutch when required. Here's to…
This reads like imperialism. Do you think Alaskans should be able to have a say in whether land is developed or improved adjacent to where you live, say, in Alabama? Wouldn't make much sense to me..
Please consider visiting rural Alaska. It might be more vast than you imagine. Please consider there are people in this community who need access to a critical resource that you likely take for granted. This particular…
Your view seems fundamentally misanthropic - instead of autochthonous population having access to a resource that you take for granted, you would rather kick them out into an expensive urban area where their life is…
'Adverse development' is the term they use for the King Cove community's road to access an airport for emergency medical services. A group of rural Americans need access to a critical resource. They aren't building an…
This reads like 3rd rate propoganda. No possibility of supplying monoclonal antibodies?
"An initial cohort will launch with 30 fellows in the fall at more than five participating agencies including GSA, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and the Consumer…
What happened to google? Rhetorical
Parent seems to be referring to MIDs [1] "Mediators of Individual Data (MIDs) are a union-like organization championed by technologist Jaron Lanier as a framework for addressing the key issues around user-generated data…
AT&T cellular lists a user's data usage in kilobytes rather than gigabytes on the account page to obfuscate their poor business practices. Paradigm of credulity.
Half of a billion in lobbying dollars well spent by FAANG[1] - business as usual continues for facebook despite their decreasing popularity and repeated scandal and failure, from Cambridge Analytica to Libra. Those in…
A webcam that "just works" seems like a herculean task if the goal is to have native compatibility with most devices without installing a package - Chromebooks, Apple, *nix, etc. but given how decent cameras are…

What are the blocks to developing community-driven libre drivers for common/cheap printers? Would it involve a lot of reverse-engineering and unique edge cases for each unit?
