Yes that's a nice thing to fix a problem with a software update. But isn't it funny how the possibility of updating after purchase seems to mean that products ship without really being well tested. If there's no possibility of fixing problems once something is in the field, then you make damn sure it works before it goes out the door.

Whoa, better make sure all my pwds are in keepass! Didn't know the fines were so hefty for that.

Firefox for most browsing (especially youtube with ublock), chrome for facebook.

Ah yes the "Full Self Driving" brand of limited autopilot requiring constant human supervision.

Brother laser printer, black and white, ethernet connection. So fast, so reliable. Do you really NEED color? I find that its not that important, and if I need quality prints, like for photos, a 300$ printer isn't going to cut it anyway.

Looking seriously at this one, especially because my main laptop has power/hinge problems. Waiting on verified linux support tho. Crazy that the thinkpad one is 1K more.

The author seems dead set on a tauri calendar implementation. I came across what is apparently a scheduling toolkit in rust:

https://github.com/fmeringdal/nettu-scheduler

Which I guess could be used to build a desktop calendar app. One flaw in the ointment is that a calendar program really needs email integration. Downloading an ICS file and manually transferring that over to your calendar app isn't going to cut it.

Which brings us to the lack of solid calendar servers. I've searched but I haven't found anything popular, OSS, easy to install, and useful for groups. Radicale exists but multi user support is a janky hack, while Nextcloud has unreliable sync. I'm looking for features like:

  • reliable calendar sync
  • sharable calendars.
  • scheduling help - when to have a meeting?
  • how many attendees for a group event, how many invited etc.

Hot take: tire particulates are a conservative anti-EV talking point. "My V8 mustang weighs less than an EV, therefore its better on pollution than a EV because tire particulates". Totally disregarding the impact of tailpipe emissions.

aw, he may be a genocide loving nazi, but at least its from the heart. won't someone give him some money?

 

I miss RPAN! I could connect with my phone and stream any time, and there would be viewers, if only a few at times. Sometimes a lot though. It was great practice playing for an audience. Lots of great feedback and interactions, helped get me through the pandemic.

What's out there in the fediverse that's similar, if anything?
