New laptop sticker. We'll see how it ages.

"The Lotus Emeya achieved the best result to date. In 20 minutes, the vehicle recharged sufficient to drive 458 kilometres. It had already charged from 10 to 80 per cent after just 14 minutes."

...or EUR 44k for the Ioniq 6, which is also a really nice car, and is the second fastest charging, by one measure, getting 253km of range in just ten minutes. They're very pretty, I've seen quite a few around Paris already.

I haven’t formed my thoughts fully, but I think about this often: running a more ethical, less extractive and capitalist business.

I’ve spent years doing this and what surprised me was the lack of appreciation for “doing things right”. I thought there was a certain audience (often, the indie web one) who would. but mostly what I’ve seen was heavily entrenched capitalism.

I'm finding that only a tiny minority of banks in Europe will deal with non-profits. Like, what's up with that? They take you through weeks worth of paperwork and email back-and-forth to open an account, and then finally someone says "Oh, you're public-benefit... we only serve for-profit companies."

That's just not a thing in the US. In and out in a half-hour, never any too-snobby-to-do-business-with-you.

@yatil @fox @glsbank

...but... why should the bank care what your purpose is? Why are they that far into your business? What possible good can it do them?

"News

2024‑05‑23 - On May 21 at 15:30 UTC the c-root team at Cogent Communications was informed that the root zone as served by c-root had ceased to track changes from the root zone publication server after May 18. Analysis showed this to have been caused by an unrelated routing policy change whose side effect was to silence the relevant monitoring systems. No production DNS queries went unanswered by c-root as a result of this outage, and the only impact was on root zone freshness. Root zone freshness as served by c-root was fully restored on May 22 at 16:00 UTC."

Why, I wonder?

Nice! @littlesnitch just shipped version 6, and it includes encrypted DNS to Quad9!

?? It seems to think it's on. I haven't tcpdumped it yet...

This is quite rare - the C root-servers are out of sync with the rest of the world by 3 days. Since that time there have been no changes in the root zone, except for DNSSEC signature updates. It appears all C instances (operated by ) are serving an outdated zone. For now this has no operational impact, but that might change

woody,

@bert_hubert

Cogent is in the midst of three different peering disputes, with Tata, NTT, and HE, so their connectivity is pretty limited at the moment. Most people cannot reach https://http://c.root-servers.org for instance.

There's been a lot of conversation in different channels about whether this is sufficient to call their competency to run a root into question.

I could fly to Dublin in less than two hours (net). I could do the trip with fast trains and boats in a day.

Or I can stick to slow trains and take three days.

Either way, the journey starts here. And now.

@partim

Everything between Paris and Amsterdam has been booked solid for two weeks, more or less, and it's spilling over into regional trains. The direct flights CDG-AMS are now 4x usual price as well.

Ouch. What Fediverse codebase are you using?

woody,

@jochie

I'm using Pleroma and a Pleroma derivative, and don't recall seeing any issues of this kind.

Hm. I don't think competing with the Model 3 requires copying the windscreen from the Cybertruck.

That said, I quite like Pugueot. Their e-Rifter is one of my very favorite vehicles.

Yeah, I don't imagine that will make it to production.

The 508, which this replaces, is ubiquitous for police and government cars here in Paris... it'll be nice to see those upgraded.

I guess 25mbps counts as broadband.

Arrrr... I was going to cross-reference this thread with the one in which Dana Sibera disclosed that she uses exclusively these self-printed-and-padded notes:

...which took me down a rathole of trying to figure out how to find her thread about it, which in turn led me to this:
