draughtcyclist,

Someone has to pay for the R&D to make EV’s possible. So far, that’s not BYD. It’s been US and European countries.

draughtcyclist,

As an operator, this who thread reads like a bunch of devs who don’t understand networking and refuse to learn.

Sure, for smaller applications or small dev teams it doesn’t make sense. But for so many other things it does.

draughtcyclist,

I like how people assume they bought them to make games instead of buying them to eliminate the competition.

They know, they just don’t give a shit beyond short term gains.

draughtcyclist,

Well yeah. The companies are state subsidized and a good bit of the tech is stolen from electric car companies in other countries that actually have to pay for R&D.

draughtcyclist,

Not at the same level, no. And we frankly shouldn’t be doing that either.

draughtcyclist,

Don’t forget the painful, venomous bite!

If I find one in my house, I’m killing it. They’re my irrational fear. You can’t talk me out of it.

draughtcyclist,

Legitimate question… I thought Operation Paperclip just brought over the Nazi scientists after WWII? What am I missing? We’re there politicians or other Nazi party members included?

draughtcyclist,

That makes more sense, I didn’t realize it affected intelligence communities as well.

draughtcyclist,

You we’re getting as free YT videos? I’m just paying to be harassed for now because I don’t have time to shop around for a replacement. Killing podcasts was the last straw.

draughtcyclist,

You know they didn’t. God bless the decentralized nature of git. They just got the public repos.

draughtcyclist,

But git is decentralized by design… Just self host.

draughtcyclist,

Does the Toyota Crown come in a PHEV flavor?

draughtcyclist,

This is a fantastic write up of the problems we are facing in the US automotive market. Broken regulations incentivize large trucks/SUV’s, including for electric vehicles.

Smaller vehicles use less energy. Smaller vehicles cause less road wear. Smaller vehicles are fine for most use cases - but I recognize not all use cases. Smaller vehicles cause less damage in collusions to other cars and pedestrians.

I’m not saying to take away any options… But let’s stop incentivizing the wasteful and start incentivizing the efficient. I as a consumer would love to see more small car options for selfish reasons. They handle better and are more fun to drive.

draughtcyclist,

How much money has China invested in Africa?

draughtcyclist,

Best way to make the switch is by immersion. I’d also like to add it’s best to do it when you’re not being forced on a timeline, and you have time to deal with it. All my personal machines made the jump 7 years ago and I don’t regret it.

draughtcyclist,

I guarantee there is a Zabka very close.

draughtcyclist,

This is a helpful link (finding another Denisovan fossil outside Siberia), we still need DNA evidence. Good to know the current theory is more strongly supported though.

draughtcyclist,

It’s not though. Plug in hybrids address two issues that plague electric vehicles: range anxiety and limited supply of lithium for batteries.

You can make 7 plugin hybrids for 1 fully electric vehicle. Solve for charging infrastructure, and this is still a problem to be solved.

draughtcyclist,

I agree. However… I do have a public repo with my helper scripts in case I need to set them up on a new machine. best of both worlds!

draughtcyclist,

Agreed, IaC has helped that process a lot. I just used to curse.

draughtcyclist,

If I had to guess after managing enterprise WAF across hundreds of domains…

It’s either a crowler or vulnerability scanner, and may be scanning by IP address. I don’t think you configured anything wrong.

You may want to add some form of captcha or user agent based filter to get rid of it. Good news is that it’s not necessarily something to worry about.

I’d avoid IP based blocking. It’s only temporarily effective.

Planning on moving over from Windows 10 to Linux for my Personal Work Station. Can't decide which OS I should switch to.

Windows has been a thorn in my side for years. But ever since I started moved to Linux on my Laptop and swapping my professional software to a cross platform alternative, I’ve been dreaming on removing it from my SSD....

draughtcyclist,

I’m personally using Mint for this exact purpose. It just works and I don’t have to think about it much.

I love Mint for the simplicity. My only complaint is the lack of Wayland support for cinnamon.

draughtcyclist,

It’s a trade off between puncture resistance and handling. I personally don’t want to ride these tires or gatorskins. I’ll stick with my continental gp 5000s, and just deal with punctures sometimes. The ride and grip are so much better they’re worth it.

draughtcyclist,

Preach. This is a symptom of a world rapidly going to shit. But hey, we have AI to accelerate the direction we are heading.

draughtcyclist,

It does, and I’m here for it.
