What does anyone think of a co-op sales site, similar to Bandcamp? That's the idea behind Mirlo.space. I just put up a new album and see that you can batch upload all tracks (a paid feature on BC). Sales commission is 7% (less than half of BC). They've only been around for a minute, so there's lots of work to do. Something to check out:

@randulo Love seeing more cooperatives!

Question is if its a registered cooperative company & in which country. How is it run? Do they have a charter/bylaws? Is it run democratically with a board or a single owner? Is it an LCC and without contractual obligations to actually be a cooperative.
Reading their about page my first thought is that this needs to be clarified.

Bandcamp "posed" as a cooperative but was very much a for-profit company that sold out so want to avoid that happening again.

Lamppost EV chargers are the answer to how you charge your vehicle in cities.

This is possible because when energy intensive street lamps were replaced by LEDs, there’s excess power for charging EVs.

All cities should do this. ⚡️

@davidho This isn't accurate, you do have put down larger wires.

In the city where I live they run 5G10 wiring as a standard which is still generous.
The dimensions aren't limited by the load, but the wire length. The resistance turns the wires into radiators at the lengths used for municipal street lights.

Here are some rough examples:
On a 16A fuse you can manage about 300-500 meters max length
On a 10A fuse about 500-1000 m
This is still only enough to trickle charge a single vehicle.

I'm doing another one of my little surveys, this time to see which parts of using on the desktop are the most problematic, and the various issues people are having.

I'll make a video on these results next week, and depending on the answers, maybe I'll make more videos on specific issues, either to explain these topics, or to see how we could improve.

So, here is the form, feel free to fill it out and share it around, so we have as many answers as possible!

@thelinuxEXP I think this is a great initiative! Figuring out what is offputting to new users and providing tools to make it a little bit easier.

I've been learning and getting familiar with and plasma recently. It's generally considered to be one of the most familiar desktops for moving Windows users.

What I had most problems with is installing and configuring software that isn't in any default package manager so having guides/wizards helpers built in would be my suggestion. 😊

The feature is a fucking nightmare lmao

However, Recall won't actively hide sensitive information like passwords and financial account numbers that appear on-screen.

Marketed to be "on your device only". |

It used to be a meme to ask someone to delete your browser history when you die. Now you gotta ask them to dep fry the whole computer> To use Recall, users will need to purchase one of the new "Copilot Plus PCs" powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon X Elite chips

Got it, so avoid these PCs. Only a matter of time before this comes baked into more chips though. Gross.

New Windows AI feature records everything you’ve done on your PC

@dalekcoffee It's complete insanity. I don't know what they're thinking turning people's PCs into spyware. Not even asking for consent, just: Congrats, we made the choice for you!

Anyone with this crap on a compromised PC will now not only lose their passwords but their whole life and identity. A scammers wet dream.

Someone linked me this meme video before:
