I wrote something similar 9 months ago (just relying on VLC functionalities + youtube-dl + avahi) and I have been using it since then (but less elegant): https://gist.github.com/frafra/9f5770c6af6e4dcdf91ba815225e5...

Thanks, I read your comment on the gist too; I added them, but I have no direct experience. My gist was not intended to be complete, but a mostly EU well known VPS providers. A proper git repository with a nice markdown table would be bette

You are right, I have never heard of that thanks. I just added them to the list.

I use Linode, but it was $10 or more, while I've just seen there's also a $5 VPS called "Nanode". I added it to the list and I will test it more in the future. Thank you!

New York and Atlanta DC only. I wrote down pros/cons of various ~$5 and below VPS services in a Gist I have been maintaining for a couple of years: https://gist.github.com/frafra/4688b146ca6d55accb768c3557939...

I knew that charging under water freezing temperatures could damage the battery, not storage or usage. Could you please share some details? I am evaluating to buy an electric bike, but during winter temperature can get to -20 °C/~0 °F,

It depends. As I could charge it both at home and at work, I would prefer to have something integrated and less prone to problems due to water/snow/ice. As I live in a cold country I really appreciate the internal hub with the pro

I agree with you and I would like to share what just happened to me with Scaleway. Scheduled maintenance on their network, notified 1 week in advance. "No action required", they said. My IPv6-only VPS stopped to be reachable from

No, there are various studies, but I picket that one just because is from the very same researchers that got different results previously.

It has been proven that gluten intolerance/sensitivity does not exist (while celiac disease is very real), so this article seems suspicious from the very first line. There are various studies about that, and even researchers that found

+1: landfills is the worst option and should be never used for non-inert materials (that is why EU mandates incineration before bringing waste to the landfill). It is very hard and expensive to do it properly, with a perfect first layer, in

They are not, different oils have just different mix of different fats, determining consistence at different temperatures. Micro-nutrients are overestimated; you do not eat olives or drink olive oil because you want to get "micro-nutri

Sorry, but "chemicals" is another meaningless word. Everything is chemical, a molecule has no memory, so it does not matter how it has been produced. Unprocessed vs processed: I was not talking about that, but your statement is no

"unnatural ingredients". What does it mean? Are "natural" ingredients better a priori? Is a molecule that is produced by a living organism better than the very same molecule synthesized in a lab? No, there is no scientif

Let's not overgeneralize. There are many recycling that do not export garbage elsewhere and they are profitable. Recycling metals is easy and works well for example; it is not inefficient nor dirty. Avoid producing waste, reuse, recycl

Btw, it is possible to use the compatible ~= operator (PEP 440) within requirements.txt.

Will it be released under an opensource license? It would be nice to try to improve, especially because it is an educational tool.

Would it possible to choose a different language? Edit: someone else already open a issue (see issue no. #8)

Sorry for not having quoted the exact paragraph in my very first comment. You can find the reference just above; it stops to work at around 90 mph (150 km/h) - Tesla Model S manual, Collision Avoidance Assist, page 95. Additional limit

Exactly. "Automatic Emergency Braking operates only when driving between approximately 7 mph (10 km/h) and 90 mph (150 km/h)." -- Model S Manual (you can find it online)

Radar is not active if the speed is higher than a specific threshold; it seems it is written in the manual.

Sure, but the discussion was about energy and carbon footprint, not economics; I just reported what Elon Musk said the last presentation about how to produce the fuel starting from carbon dioxide. Economic viability has to be proved, but I

Musk said that the fuel (methane and oxygen) for Mars expeditions has to be produced on Mars, using solar panels, water and capturing carbon dioxide available in the atmosphere, and he also stated that the very same procedure could be used
