whistlindiesel also discovered this. it's honestly terrifying that these are legal to sell as "trucks" and people believe they can safely tow with them. Aluminum will only get weaker over time and is guaranteed to eventually

It doesn't even use steel for the frame. It's an aluminum cast. I didn't even know that was legal for trucks. It basically guarantees that these things have an expiration date. I honestly can't believe these are legal to

That looks like a fun stack—especially the Raku—but have you ever actually deployed anything using it?

Most of this is pretty standard stuff but one thing I did learn is some of the fingerprinting techniques I wouldn't've thought of. Like Mozilla/Apple not sharing GPU or battery information being used to confirm which browser

Oof that's hard to answer. I edit Wikipedia pages of botany-related topics so I'm usually reading stuff that's NOT 20-minute bites. I also have a particular interest in parts of nature that break the, imo, false dichotomy bet

Great question. It feels like there's no real options here except buying older cars. Mozilla did a review and every brand they looked at flunked https://www.mozillafoundation.org/en/blog/privacy-nightmare-...

Pig apple? Is that bad apples that are fed to pigs? Why would you need to rate those? Aren't they just, by definition, lowly rated apples?

Meh. Boom and bust cycles are common in most agricultural industries. Avocados are no different. In fact the industry in Australia seems to have already rebounded

It's not Linux, it's Ubuntu. Which is developed by Canonical. Which is a military contractor that has a permanent DoD team and works with the USAF. Which is bombing their country.
