This is interesting, but it'll have a JH7110 and microsd for storage, so it's basically just a RISC-V SBC but in a Framework mainboard form-factor. SBCs with that specific processor seem to be pretty cheap, like the Milk-V Mars wh

Not at all. You can go to a website and click a button in less than a minute, and you don't have to do it during business hours, sit on hold, or deal with a pushy sales rep trying to convince you not to cancel (well, unless they do wha

The FTC has been more aggressive and actually doing their job under this administration. Idk if this particular case will have a satisfying conclusion, but I'd say the chances are as good as they've ever been.

I don't know what you consider "stable enough", but the 30% packet loss demo in the article is pretty impressive.

OP and I are very similar lol. I bought a Pixel 7 Pro on eBay specifically so I could use Graphene (screw buying new; used is good for the planet and it doesn't give money to Google). So far, I have been loving it! Also switched to Org

I think "stolen" is perfectly fine to use here, but I don't think you're correct. The definition of theft usually involves depriving someone of something, which is why piracy and copyright infringement are not theft. The

I don't know what it is about Discourse, but I can never get into it. Maybe it's the UI? It feels like a disorganized mess to me.

I've been on Discord channels where the mods are constantly getting pissed off because people keep asking the same questions, so much so that they ban people when it happens. I'm starting to think that this is part of the appeal.

Three chat apps. Why can't Quicksy's contact finding feature be added to Conversations instead of being a whole fork? Delta chat I kind of get why it's a separate thing since it works differently, but it still seems counter p

The interesting thing (to me) about Nostr is that it let's people actually own their data in a relatively accessible/simple way. It's by far the simplest implementation of these modern decentralized protocols I've seen,

I didn't realize we were going so far back. In that case, Perl may be more convenient than Python/Go, and almost certainly a better choice than bash. Still, > If you want to write some code (e.g., a launcher, installer, utility

This is interesting, but I don't see why I would use this instead of Python or Go? With those I'd get portability, modern features, etc but with the added bonus of a powerful standard library and ecosystem. Don't get me wrong

"They" would be Meshy. Again, I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that you can't grant a license to some IP unless you own it.

Nostr would be so cool if it wasn't associated with bitcoin. I know the protocol has nothing to do with crypto currencies whatsoever, but the people who use it are predominantly in that world. This is a cool project though, so nice job

They mention using a service called Meshy for generating models, and I noticed that they have a free plan where the generated assets have a "license" of CC-BY-4.0[1]. Any lawyers in here that can comment on that? They're clai
