Oh that’s nice. We visited Germany about 10 years ago and didn’t get international cell service, so we were relying on hotel wifi and other wifi hotspots. This kind of thing would have been great.

Ours was on a wall across from the office, but the wall opened up to the cafeteria just next to it. I recall students sometimes using it during lunch.

Unfortunately, you’re probably right.

Wasn’t Tesla the company that had a person (or group of people) dedicated to distracting him, thereby letting the rest of the company actually do work?

I LOVE that he thinks his leaving government to refocus on Tesla will solve the sales issue Tesla has been experiencing.

He just does not get it.

Who is actually creating a legitimate Facebook account at this point?

I moderate a few groups on Facebook, and every account I see for new members that was created within the last few years is a spammer. The people who wanted Facebook accounts already have them. Very very few actual human beings are signing up for new legitimate accounts at this point.

Facebook should just close the new account option. They’re working toward AIs talking to each other and won’t need human interaction any more anyway.

My previous laptop had a touch screen, and the Linux driver worked for it with no configuration on my end. Not exactly what you’re asking about, but I was impressed by how it “just worked”.

But that was a traditional laptop.

“Biden’s economy”

It’s a novelty vehicle.

It’s too big for many people. It’s not as functional (in terms of towing and hauling) as a regular pickup. People who buy pickups for business uses are, for the most part, are going to be very nervous about buying an electric vehicle from a relatively new manufacturer.

Even if you put aside the issues with Elon: The issue with the Cybertruck is that Elon never understood it was a novelty vehicle. The traditional auto manufacturers make these novelty vehicles from time to time, but the difference is that they understand what they’re building and know they’re only going to sell 10,000 or something per year, and probably for a short run.

Elon’s so far up his own ass that he doesn’t understand why everyone isn’t buying one.

Can’t I grill food? Or cook it on the range? Why do I have to use my oven to make meals?

Seems like these could be a good display/control panel for Home Assistant.

There’s a whole community for self hosting software.

Hopefully I did that right…

I meant including gas.

Looks like there’s one, the Nissan Versa.

I mean, are there any cars available in the US for just $20k? I’m pretty sure a base Mazda 3 was more than that when we bought ours five years ago (before the pandemic, and ours is a higher trim model). I don’t think they’re making the really small cars any more (like the Toyota Yaris).

Short version, I’m skeptical of this price point for even a small pickup. Great if they can do it.

You actually can nearly do that. Facebook inexplicably showed me how a few weeks ago. If a friend reshares something, you’ll see it, but it removes all groups, etc. It was stunning how little content actually comes from friends.

On the Facebook site (I’m sure it can be done via app, too, but I didn’t look), click on the menu near the top right, then click Feeds (under Social). Then click on Friends on the left.

What I’m hearing is we should have tossed his ass in jail before any trials.

I’ve been using it on my server for 6 or 8 years, and on my desktop and laptop for maybe a year. I’m not sure when I switched.

I like the stability, I generally don’t need bleeding edge software. And as someone else mentioned, it’s one of the packages distributors always offer.

Same here - daily driving Linux at home for at least 25 years now. I’m not a gamer, but for all the things I do, Linux has worked perfectly fine.

I struggled getting Zwift (online cycling game) running on Debian, and the issue turned out to be that WINE on Debian is a major version behind.

I did get it working, and everything else works (retro game emulators), but it’s like, huh maybe that wasn’t the best choice.
