Soon ICE will have given Comcast enough money to provide a live feed of the neighborhoods they are targeting and where all the bodies are that match the height of their targets. We need to be finding the xfinity wifi hotspots in our neighbo

And they can turn it right back on again.

I have personally tested wifi imaging from a cheap old 2.4Ghz linksys router that was accurate enough to tell if my hand was open or closed, maybe 10 years ago.

Comcast has remote control of all of their equipment so they will just turn it on for you if they get a court order or a big enough check from an adtech company. Wifi imaging is a bit like a silhouette and generally accurate enough to work

Ah yeah that tracks. My enclosed Prusa MK4 is on a big stud-mounted shelf and my huge enclosed Prusa XL is on top of a heavy server rack with locked castors on a concrete floor. Vibration is not noticeable in either case.

Getting one with an enclosure like a Prusa Core One does wonders for noise reduction. Can even throw it under a desk. I had one in my office for years and no one could hear it on the other side of video calls.

My favorite thing to do at Apple stores as a teen was jailbreak display phones and setup reverse ssh tunnels on them, for reasons.

I just pull out calipers, take some quick measurements, then put them into OpenSCAD, export, and hit print. Between Honeycomb Storage Wall and Gridfinity almost every tool I own has a home.

Trust me once you start printing this you are going to want it all over your home and want new panels on demand for any otherwise useless wall space. 3D printers are cheap!

Also the proprietary license on multiboard is absolutely insane. Not only is it closed source, even the printed objects have strings attached. If you ever use anything you print from the multiboard library in a for-profit setting you are ob

But, importantly, you can 3D print a dildo mold.

My go-tos are the CIGA Eye Of Horus and the Bradley Element, both using a Leatherman Tread for a band with TreadLinks adapters so I always have some basic tools with me which get used a surprising amount.

No cell phone at all as I do not wish to have my location sold, rely on proprietary tech, or to be reachable at all times. I also use cash exclusively IRL so my digital footprint away from home is virtually zero. I am happiest being intenti

Signal is a non starter. Never had an account and barring major architecture changes, I never will. Weakly secured centralized control of metadata with no option to self host your way out of it, and a requirement of a phone number which mak

It is a solution for plenty of people and I am one of them. Your standards must simply prioritize UX over federation and E2EE.

Exactly. I have had multiple people I was close to die due to smoking created health issues in the last decade. Even if smoking is not as prevalent today, we are paying the price for it now.

Fast food addiction, free-refill-fueled soda addiction, tobacco addiction, weakly trained near universal use of automobiles for daily travel, and unequal access to healthcare are staples of American culture so I am only surprised the spread

I am a power user and have never experienced this. Their system must be disk bound or ram bound or something. Granted I have 0 systems I use with less than 64gb of memory. Ram is cheap.

In the decade prior to me abandoning cell phones entirely I used E2EE email frequently on Android via OpenKeychain and K-9Mail with a Yubikey. I did not want to be locked into Google or Apple ecosystems and the ship on a truly FOSS Android

Things working well with a few channels and a few hundred people are very different than working with thousands of channels and thousands of people.

Zulip lacks end to end encryption and decentralization so they are not remotely comparable.

I use a VoIP account from a pocketable linux laptop when I need SMS or calling capability on the go, which is rare. It can normally wait, so I normally carry no devices at all. Not carried a cell phone in ~5 years.

My team and I produce tons of software for consumers, but we open source all of it for free. Proprietary software should not exist and consumers are getting raked over the coals enough as it is.

I think the biggest missing bit in Tinfoil is lack of full source bootstrapped deterministic builds. That is an absolute requirement to ensure no single member of the supply chain, such as a single Debian maintainer or a Tinfoil release eng
