I've seen it, but that's was a VERY EASY scenario of an isolated vehicle with nothing around, try to do the same in a more realistic scenario like a vehicle crushed downhill, with a bit of dry vegetation on fire around, another wi

Well... It's seems... Childish, to be polite... In case of fire, typically after a powerful crash since EVs are not catching fire for no reasons every now and then, of course fireman's have easy access to open the appropriate smal

The root problem is simply the modern, old, OS++ concept, or the divide et impera commercial concept. Classic systems was a single application, fully integrated. This design create a slow, incremental evolution and a plethora of small impro

It's not much related BUT beware a thing: in FLOSS we are open, to anyone, so a CIA engineer and a NK ones could possibly work on the same codebase and that's PERFECTLY FINE. Because code must be reviewed, and recent XZ Utils less

Well, while both option exists and obviously anyone is (almost) free to choose, I still fail to see convenience in living on someone else computer. Anyway, allow me a different scenario: you are Foo Bar, you have a bunch of documents and ma

At a personal|SME level? Who might want do DDOS John Smith or Pop's store? How much iron you need for such usage? That's without counting the various "datacenters horror stories" about how badly many providers are really

I've tried YaCy, but the amplitude of the crawling community it's way too little to make it usable so... For now there are not much options, for maps the situation is better with OSM, but still far from being usable like Google Ma

it's cloying how people (individuals and SMEs) forget that in the present time in vast part of the world we have FTTH with enough bandwidth and low enough ping that's MUCH better than a cheap VPS or someone else server. The only n

Like Schrems sentences you can't get that from USA companies, legally, but you can't get technically for ANY third party, because you are not on their servers, and no one else is there to control them. How can you verify what any

As an European: cloud is someone else computer, sovereign computing means users own their iron, sw and data, as government, so a sovereign computing means a State own hw, sw and data belonging to it. That's ALMOST the case for most EU

I've linked the laws actually existing, anyone can read what's in and take a personal conclusion. These laws are clearly a base for a coup, no matter how PR rhetoric can try to justify that.

I do not judge the package BUT have to note a very interesting thing: this package show a classical thing about human interaction with a computer, where data and code are mixed and user programming is a thing. People could remain in a &quot

Many people outside AND INSIDE France still have not much understood that the current government have transformed a step at a time the Republic in a ready-for-a-full-coup fascist state, for those who can read french I suggest trying: - htt

It's not enough: if you use Obsidian and you loose it yes, you can formally use your notes, but you miss the tool, or the workflow on them. We simply need FLOSS at all level, hw included, because we have already lost decades of progres

Oh no, that's absolutely needed, because yes, we can develop with git sending patches via and ML, IF people know your project exists. That's why we need usenet where we can have a freshmeat.net and co equivalents to makes new proj

I honestly do not get such programs, I'm from EU where equivalent programs exists in slightly different form (1€ old and abandoned homes for sale) and that's a total stupid initiative because people face MUCH bigger costs and stil

I'm curious how much time it will take for most FLOSS devs to understand that relaying on third party giant code hosting instead of put back usenet (it's cheap enough) to have visibility and keep the code REALLY distributed and RE

Well, with the important notice I do not know what's happened, having read only one part, my take is simple: why people develop for walled gardens? If Play Store, App Store etc became EMPTY because the only apps are from big tech they

My point is simple: in a future of resource scarcity due to overpopulation, needed mass relocations and supply chains reorganizations due to climate changes there is already and there will be no room for cities and trains. What's there

Maybe it's a translation issue: I simply say most trains in the world are not self-propelled wagons but one ore two with motors and the others pulled/pushed by them. And no, in the EU most trains have a single or two locomotive, o
