- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
These Mavicas could become popular again now as retro tech. There’s a lo-fi aesthetic growing in photo and video that’s all about compression artefacts and old image sensors. Physical media and its inconveniences is also having a moment as a novelty and maybe even a broader movement.
- Comment on Google Wallet lets UK users turn their passport into digital IDs 2 weeks ago:
However, it is important to note that these digital IDs are not a replacement for the original physical ones. Furthermore, U.K. residents cannot use digital IDs at airports for travel.
Additionally, Google states that it is also exploring certification with the U.K.’s Department for Science, Innovation, and Technology, which could enable residents to use their digital IDs for alcohol purchases and other purposes.
So you can add your passport to Android but effectively not use it for anything? Does anywhere in the UK accept this Google system as ID?
The article also mentions a partnership to add Railcards to it, but there is already a Railcard app for that, so I’m not sure what this actually for.
- Comment on Google Wallet lets UK users turn their passport into digital IDs 2 weeks ago:
We already have a semi privatised identity system with the PASS card scheme for proof of age, its government backed but the actual physical and digital IDs are provided by various public and private groups.
- Comment on Introducing Lab Rax: A 3D Printable & Modular 10" Rack System - The DIY Life 2 weeks ago:
There are 4 bay units that would fit on a 10” inch shelf. I’ve seen some DIY projects too.
Using SFF/mini PCs is also popular, there are models that can take multiple SATA/NVMe drives

There are few if any 10” UPS units available anyway so weight is less of a worry. It’s one of the biggest weaknesses of the 10” system currently.

- Comment on An Alarming Number of Gen Z Ai Users Think It's Conscious 3 weeks ago:
In the general population it does. Most people are not using an academic definition of AI, they are using a definition formed from popular science fiction.

- Comment on Keir Starmer does not believe trans women are women, No 10 says 3 weeks ago:
Labour chose to take this particular stance today. There are many other approaches they could have taken, they could have also tried to dodge the matter and kick they can down the road, but instead “trans women are not women” is what they have chosen to actively embrace.
(Further) pandering to the transphobic lobby is not necessary, and what’s been said today is far beyond pandering.
- Comment on Keir Starmer does not believe trans women are women, No 10 says 3 weeks ago:
They could have announced they would look to introduce new legislation to address this. They could have said just about anything instead of what’s been said today.
But they didn’t, they are instead parroting the court ruling as if it’s a final settlement on the issue.
There is no weaselling around these words, the only debate is whether it exposes cowardice or bigotry.
- Comment on Trans women should use toilets based on biological sex, Phillipson says 3 weeks ago:
Even by the low standards I had for Labour’s approach, this is depressing.

- Comment on Bots increase online user engagement but stifle meaningful discussion, study shows 5 weeks ago:
The platform owners don’t consider engagement to me be participation in meaningful discourse. Engagement to them just means staying on the platform while seeing ads.
If bots keep people doing that those platforms will keep letting them in.

- Comment on Neurodiverse people on benefits to be helped into work in bid to cut welfare bill 3 months ago:
Getting employers to do so will probably require improved labour laws and investment, which doesn’t look forthcoming yet.
Instead I fear we will end up with some more unbinding guidelines employers will ignore, and then those who still cannot find work will have the rug pulled from them with the cuts.
