What's next? Hopefully domestic-component grid storage batteries and EV batteries for greatly reduced cost and less reliance on China.
Any serious effort towards a "green" future is going to require better home and vehicular energy generation and storage. We need gridscale batteries and EV batteries, cheaply, now.
Individuals should not be making their own medical or psychological diagnoses. Correct.
California needs to wise up and realize that you can make functional firearms out of $20 worth of hardware store parts. They can't stop the signal.
Shinzo Abe got his cheeks clapped with a homemade gun in a country with roughly zero legal civilian firearms, and a violent crime rate of less than 1 per 100,000.
Can't stop the signal.
I use Audire from F-droid. It relies on the APIs of Shazam and AUDD. But it's a FOSS app, there is no account to log into, and I'm running it on Graphene so it's also sandboxed and permissions restricted.
Awesome, glad they're doing it.
The problem is the price and the timeframe. The next batch is available next May?
For that price, more than a year from now, you'll likely be able to assemble or purchase a small form factor PC and build it out with similar or better components for significantly cheaper.
I think the treasury should issue a Darrell Sheets commemorative $40 bill.
TV plots were a lot more rudimentary and formulaic back then as there was less competition (like 3 channels total).
Lots of "so-and-so's boss is coming to dinner and it has to go perfectly or else, and unsurprisingly, hilarity ensues"
For years they ran a program to reward people for using Bing (they still technically do, but the payouts are next to nothing, maybe $5-10 worth of gift cards per year).
10 years ago you could accumulate a passive income of several thousand dollars per year by farming Bing Rewards, Perk (before that company went under) and a few other programs.
I mean, shit. 10-70% in 5 minutes? If that vehicle architecture and those chargers become even semi-ubiquitous, we are looking at a scenario where those EVs are road-trippable and there are no more excuses.
Of course that is asking a lot in the US at the moment.
The problem is that even if you do convince them to eliminate office culture, many CEOs are more likely to skip straight past the "let existing domestic employees work from home for their regular salaries" and instead go to the "outsource everything to the Philippines or India for 1/5 the personnel cost" strategy.
I run Immich on mine with an external drive.
You can also use DDG, Startpage, spin up a SearX instance, or a number of other options.
