@0xabad1dea @mcc If the drivers are implemented properly (big if 🙃) it should be fine. But yeah.. 😅

@Azuaron @aral "We use a 307 and not a 301 (permanent redirect) because we want the latest site to have the chance to override the URL in the future."

Hey web devs, not breaking links doesn’t have to be hard…

Heard of the 404 → 307 technique? (Well, now you have!)

@hyc @ariadne You could if the battery provided enough burst power, or if on-ramps had overhead or inductive power transfer for the acceleration.

@hyc @ariadne "Basically 2hp, which won't even get you moving on a flat road" is inaccurate. Arbitrarily low power can get you moving on a flat road with suitable reduction gearing. But in particular, 1-2 literal-horse power moves a horse drawn carriage made of dense legacy materials. It's plenty for an efficient CF frame.

@Gottox @ariadne No, I think filesystems attract the sort of people who are happy with layering violations and breaking contracts to get what they want.

If you're trying to achieve things without doing that, what filesystem you use hardly matters.

@hyc @ariadne "Cars would have to shrink by an order of magnitude..."

Bingo.

@ariadne I await EVs that charge purely from the PV panels on them not a silly theft-ridden charging infrastructure. And that have batteries whose mass is measured in kilos not tons.

@ariadne I can't stand the whole domain of filesystems and the people it attracts.

@emma Any Christian who won't say "nazis aren't welcome in our church" is part of the death cult.

@mastodonmigration @mekkaokereke @KraftTea My impression is that it's harmful to have groupings like "$gender in $field" or "$race in $field", for reasons of targeting and others. Instead fix the under representation in the main $field list by including folks.

Despite my strong differences with many of the decisions made by #Google over recent years, I can't emphasize enough what an utter disaster for the privacy and security of ordinary users most of the DOJ "remedies" being suggested to the judge in the Google antitrust case would be. I can't figure out if DOJ just isn't considering these issues in their rush to create "competition" in a manner that wouldn't actually help ordinary consumers at all -- and more likely just cause them more tech-related problems and confusion -- or if the folks at DOJ working on this simply don't really understand the technical realities involved.

@mcc I've never seen rolling luggage that's not crap. All the wheels are bad plastic on plastic friction, no bearings whatsoever, for pivot or roll. Lasts 2-3 trips at best. I want to work out a mod system to replace the whole rolling mechanics.

@mattmay It could partly have come from the lost connections and channels for information that mainstream media won't report to get from savvy ppl to everyone else.

@shauna @aud Yeah, I really wish there were someone making a "don't have to tinker or think about" setup for Debian without corporate conflicts of interest with the user and without abdication of the core responsibilities of being a distro.

@MovementYVR Utterly mind boggling that ppl blow that much money on cars *per month*. I don't spend that much per year. Not even counting whole household.

@shauna @aud I've never used it but my experience trying to support ppl who do has always been "that's a problem you never would have had if you weren't using the enshittified fork of Debian". 🙃

@rrrichardzach @histoftech That would be any mastodon users who followed @bsky.brid.gy, right?

@shauna @aud Sounds like Canonical is both an awful employer AND an awful FOSS citizen...

@shauna@social.coop ah! No, no, I’m glad you didn’t have to go through it! I’m also glad others are aware of how ridiculous their hiring pipeline is (and how incredibly biased)! Just like… people should stay away from their postings. They’re not worth the energy to even read.
