That’s awesome, have something similar but for national parks. Are you cutting them with a vinyl cutter?

I share the author’s sentiments. Would rather people read my posts and form their own opinions, than offload their thinking to a machine (while consuming energy and water to do so). And the idea that my posts would be scraped and used to train an LLM against my wishes makes me a lot less motivated to publish personal blogs.

Owned an Xperia 5 III and liked it enough to replace it with a 5 IV. Miss having options for a compact flagship like the 5 IV or Zenfone 10. Headphone jack ftw.

And energy. And water. And land. The list goes on and on.

Cool project. The closing slide was pretty funny

If you are working at an AI company, here’s how you can sabotage Anubis development as easily and quickly as possible. So first is quit your job, second is work for Square Enix, and third is make absolute banger stuff for Final Fantasy XIV. That’s how you can sabotage this the best.

Yep, their site is a marvel of organization and refreshing in how minimalist it has remained. These days it seems every e-commerce site hits you with email sign up pop-ups, sales banners, etc.

He’s more of a meat popsicle

Thanks for this. I’m using mainly Firefox to support alternatives to webkit/blink based browsers but the new ToU makes me a bit apprehensive about the direction they’re going.

I also had been test driving Falkon from KDE but will look into these as well.

This is the route I’ll probably go when it’s time for me to replace my laptop. The 14" Lemur Pro looks perfect for my use case (ultra portable) although the Pangolin looks more powerful.

Remember when they removed “don’t be evil” from their code of conduct back in 2018

yeah, I’m actively avoiding products that tout AI. It’s a worse experience and my data gets used to train some model for some company’s enrichment.

Apple Intelligence too. Thankfully you can still disable it

Yep, did the same. Started using Tuta for email, solid privacy and UI, app available on F-Droid, and the bonus for me was them being powered by renewables.

The language in the tweet was telling, i.e party of the “little guys” and tagging the president for visibility. You can’t turn a blind eye to all the other destabilizing things this admin is doing just because they made 1 semi-competent cabinet pick (which should be the baseline expectation).

After digging around, I’m going to try Tuta for email/calendar and Mullvad for VPN. Tuta’s €3 plan lets you have 15 additional addresses and 3 custom domains.

Anyone using a good proton drive alternative?

You can still cancel your subscription so that it won’t auto-renew in 2 years and it let’s you leave a comment when doing so if you want to voice any concerns.

Filing for bankruptcy in Delaware where they were incorporated

I was hoping their truck or lifestyle vehicle would make it to market, but yeah they had a steep hill to climb with all the turmoil surrounding the company, scaling production, and the change in political winds now being essentially hostile to EV manufacturers.

In August, Canoo moved its headquarters from Torrance, Calif., to Justin, Texas — asking 137 of the office’s 194 employees to relocate, while cutting the remaining staff.

Moving wasn’t going to save the company so why uproot your employees only to fold 5 months later

I appreciate my 12 yr old car for this reason. Also, physical buttons I can hit without taking my eyes off the road

Mustache on or off?

I’m a big proponent of buying local whenever possible. This plus something similar for physical products is really useful no matter where you live.
