It was funny to see some colleagues that moved from here to Germany to work on automotive industry, and almost overnight started to defend "stopgap" alternatives like hydrogen ICEs... IMHO the biggest advantage of an electric car

The car is an extension of your home, and driving to work (or to run some errand) is sometimes the only moment you have for yourself, alone, where you can listen your favorite music in high volume and "thinking loudly". If you are

I was working on something vaguely similar to this and to LoRaHaM: https://github.com/elvis-epx/sdr/tree/master/LoRaMaDoR but most hams around are stuck in 2M analog, some even find configuring a subtone

I really like the B612 font, while I agree the bracket^Wparentheses are strange. Any font suggestions?

I have had this unpopular opinion since the beginning of the decade: Linux should just adopt AOSP UI, be able to run apps, and that’s it.

One thing is, voice over phone is so compressed that it actually took a long while for this kind of voice cloning (and associated frauds) are all over the place. We are going to need 2FA over voice communications :)

It is the same for men, too. I had everything set up to retire at 35... then I married. Sure, I am a more socially productive person now. My kid will someday pay taxes that will finance the retirement of people that didn't bother to ha
