Kenji’s approach to crispy potatoes is still a favorite:

I’ve also used sshfs to mount a remote directory and edit using my local editor/env.

I agree, but this would only work if people used RSS in the mainstream. They should but they don’t. So it seems posting to a social account that people can follow for updates is the path of least resistance.

or has been repaired by a third party.

Oh, the horror!

Sure, speaking in terms of why he could bring more votes:

• He was a teacher for 20 years and has a Midwestern small town vibe that could appeal to a lot of voters
• He has so much charisma and isn’t afraid to call out far right leadership, but he does it in a way that does not alienate that voter base. He has even taken his message to fox news.
• He started the whole “weird” thing that is now being used effectively to nullify Trump and Vance’s empty rhetoric.
• His record as gov in Minnesota speaks for itself
• He’s very popular among labor unions

You really need to listen to him speak to understand his potential impact. Here’s a 10 min video containing a few of the interviews I’ve seen (after the short intro): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1-nR3dRCAM

Not a terrible pick, but Tim Walz makes so much sense.

I wish you were wrong about the complicity of the consumer, but as you said, years of “nothing to hide” drilled into their brains has conditioned the majority to accept this status quo.

Very true, but I can still dream haha

In an ideal scenario the EV driving tech could run locally with no network connection, and I can plug in something open / 3rd party for the network connected techie features

Thanks. I’d pay more for an EV that doesn’t build in any tech at all outside of the primary function of the car.

We need to draw a line between “essential auto technology” and the internet-connected convenience tech. I would love an open source project like GrapheneOS for autos. Or even just a tablet I can connect to the power and the stereo/mic for any sort of internet connected functionality (GPS, music, etc). Either way I want my open source OS to manage the modem firmware as I have no trust in these companies.

It’s insane to me the complete lack of consumer protection in the digital age. Our cars used to be our sanctuary. A symbol of freedom and comfort. Now they’re dystopian nightmares that make me very uncomfortable.

Not only that, but you have companies replacing apple/android auto with shit tech they have no business building. Predictably there are leaks all the time.

Genuine question: are there any options out there for someone who wants a simple car and is willing to pay a little more to avoid built in spyware and subscriptions for every tiny feature?

Did I say “do it our way”? No, I said be critical where it is deserved, both parties. These protests target the Democrats.

Both parties are on the wrong side of this issue.

This is an oversimplification that ignores important context. Pushing the sphere doesn’t open the door if the sphere is not in power.

That’s a dangerous assumption in an election year where even if they do not vote R, they may not vote at all (this is a position voiced by many, and prevalent in pop culture) which could hand the election to “America’s Hitler”.

This year, criticism should be levied against both parties, and that’s not happening. Republicans in congress literally just applauded the genocide.

Next year, assuming Harris wins, continue to protest their position.

Where were they at the RNC, hmm?

Well these controllers ship with bluetooth connectivity, so it stands to reason that they should work towards their intended purpose.

I’m able to play most games with noticeable yet acceptable input lag, but not for competitive/online games. It feels like it’s close, and efforts toward optimization could get it there.

On the other hand the 2.4ghz dongle doesn’t work out of the box so that would be a nice addition.

You’re saying a higher res screen would cause issues with battery life and performance in the current deck, but we’re talking next gen.

Edit: I misread the post. The screen upgrade can only work in next gen and your point stands.

+1 for new screen. The bezel is really bad. The current resolution just doesn’t show enough detail on some games (Rocket League for example looks awful on the deck to the point where you’re playing with a handicap)

Controller input latency (using the newer “xbox wireless controller” connected via Bluetooth) needs to be improved

Ergonomics could be improved. After a few hours, the neck starts to feel it. So I find myself compensating by holding it up higher. Not sure how they could improve the neck issues without a detachable screen or something. Hand/wrist discomfort could definitely be improved.

It’s ironic that a FOSS self-hosted app would use a platform where you must forfeit your privacy to register and ask a question.
