That power efficiency is a direct result of the instructions. Namely smaller chips due to the reduced instructions set, in contrast to x86's (legacy bearing) complex instruction set.

That is not the case for every country though. In France and Germany for example almost 3/4 of google requests are via IPv6.

I ordered some parts from them a couple weeks ago to build my own custom laptop, and they're finally on their way and I'm super excited! The article is missing this, but you can order hinges, keyboard (with or without case), trackball/-pad and all these things individually from them, and use them for your own purposes.

It is just mind boggeling how much MNT encourages hacking with their stuff. They even went and made a dedicated logo you can put on things that are made to work with the reform ecosystem / derivatives: https://source.mnt.re/reform/reform/-/blob/master/symbol-for-derived-works/mnt-based-reform.svg

You can also search for the founder Lukas F. Hartmann and find a couple interviews out there.

Not to me. Absence of QA allows faulty parts to make it into a plane, it does not explain why there are faults in the first place. For doors and wheels popping off there have to be either lethal part design mistakes, parts made from play doh instead of aluminium/steel, or the people on the assembly line throwing fasteners in the bin instead of putting them on. It's not like a door pops of because its seal touched soap once and somebody poked an unverified piece of plastic at it. Especially in aviation, where you need to have redundancies.

This simply tells you that the Railway app is open source, i.e. not proprietary. And you can easily build it yourself if you want to, just fetch the manifest and feed it to flatpak-builder.

Das BS ist ja egal, das kann man einfach kostenlos wieder runterladen und installieren. Die ganzen persönlichen Daten wie Passwörter, Geburtsdatum/Ort usw. was man alles so im Dokumente-Ordner und den E-Mails findet ist doch viel interessanter! Für Identitätsdiebstahl zum Beispiel, oder Bestellung von Zeugs mit dem Konto von jemandem anders.

For me it would be open-ness and through that privacy. The dream device would be some mobile convertible with the repairibility of framework, that is completely free and open source hardware and software. Like powered by risc-v, with some future open gpu, and every (storage-/keyboard-/touchpad-/touchscreen-/battery-/network-/wifi-/ etc) controller on it being risc-v and running open firmware as well. Just such that for every byte being processed in this device you could pin down the piece of circuit and line of code that makes it so. In terms of linux some future version of gnome on a immutable distro with flatpaks that have very tied down permissions would be a nice future to me.

And I think overall many aspects of this are moving in that direction. The biggest roadblock is probably a truly open gpu, and then highly integrated controllers like for storage.

It takes time, as it all is under heavy development. Just since very recently there are risc v sbc available that can run linux - before it was pretty much microcontrollers only. Be patient :)

The bitwarden clients also work when there's no connection to the server, since they sync the vault. You just can't add any new entries. That means spotty internet is not that much of an issue in terms of using it. It also means, that every device that has a client installed and gets used regularly (to give the client a chance of syncing) is automatically a backup device.

The parties that want or need this kind of long term support are companies for the most part, which could very well crowdfund the personell to carry out these backports.The issue is not the absence of maintainers, it is the absence of awareness for crucial foundations by which these commercial entities live of.

Heat pumps (like AC units, fridges, etc) become less efficient the greater temperature difference they have to pump the heat. So pumping heat from a 25°C room to a >100°C steam engine would become terribly inefficient. It would need more energy, which creates more environmental damage and climate crisis to source, and that energy heats the cities even more.

The only sane way to cool cities is to get rid of as much concrete and asphalt as possible (especially the vast amounts of ground that is covered for cars), and keep only narrower sealed paths for small individial transport like bikes. Plaster everything with trees and grass and other greens. They cool down the city dramatically and are able to take up the water that comes down at extreme weather events.

Escaping the urban hellscape cannot be achieved by building more stuff and throwing more energy at it. Just visit a park in your city and observe how the temperature changes, it is that simple. Mobility cannot seal all surface area, it has the be minimal, i.e. narrow paths and trains with rails that can also run on open ground / green areas. This implies of course not building secluded areas for living, shopping, working etc.. It has to be a mix, where commutes are short (i.e. like european cities, not american ones).

Use a systemd-service + systemd-timer. You can then run "systemctl start myjob.service" to check that it runs as you expect. If it works "systemctl enable --now myjob.timer" to kick it off as scheduled
