  @return2ozma Dear god, it would be lovely if Americans actually realised that they're only about 5% of the world population, and not actually as important as they think they are.

  @los_chill @LWD there isn’t one. The oligarchs and billionaires want feudalism.

  @LWD @L4s Ha ha ha. No.

  It means people get to starve in poverty because society has simultaneously decided that if you are t already rich then you must work as a moral imperative, but there is no work, and so while starving in poverty is unavoidable, you deserve it anyway.

  Because we live in a fucking dystopia.

  @sndrtj Point being, it’s not like this is the fuselage failing. It’s a plug that wasn’t fixed in place properly.

  This is the difference between “critical design flaw” and “someone fucked up putting it together”

  @HowRu68 Lots of informed discussion here. reddit.com/r/aviation/comments…

  @Australis13 @HowRu68 There certainly should be.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alaska Airlines Grounds Fleet of Boeing 737 Max 9 Jets After Midair ‘Incident’⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  @Australis13 @HowRu68 "Fuselage" is misleading here. Reports are that it was an exit door plug, which are installed as "blanking plates" in extra exit rows that aren't used in particular seat configurations.

  This suggests it was improperly installed.

  @31337 @wooki as someone who lives in a country which regularly produces >100% of its requirements from renewable sources, the EV is a no-brainer from a CO2 perspective.

  @ExLisper yes. It does. It’s just easier. I miss it when it’s not there.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chinese Carmaker Overtakes Tesla as World’s Most Popular EV Maker⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  @ExLisper No. I’m paying attention to the road, because quite often it doesn’t cope with sharpish bends and you need to take over.

  It just reduces the driving load.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chinese Carmaker Overtakes Tesla as World’s Most Popular EV Maker⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
  @ExLisper @Hazen I use it on my Leaf. It just massively reduces the cognitive load involved in long drives and makes me feel more energised when I reach my destination. I leave my hands on the wheel (it gets arsey if you don’t).
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chinese Carmaker Overtakes Tesla as World’s Most Popular EV Maker⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  @originalucifer @L4s Went and had a look, and they do the same “iPad on wheels” thing that Tesla does.

  Honestly, I kinda hate it. Want a car that works like a car, not a gaming rig.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scientists successfully replicate historic nuclear fusion breakthrough three times⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  @Funkytom467 no, JET was doing power plant research.

  NIF is studying detonation of fusion explosions. The only other way to do this is to set off a thermonuclear bomb, which the US has signed international treaties promising not to do, and which is trivially easily detected from the other side of the world.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scientists successfully replicate historic nuclear fusion breakthrough three times⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  @Uranium_Green those are literally fusion bombs.

  But there is a test ban treaty in place, and has been for some time.

  NIF provides plausible deniability to study fusion ignition without setting off actual nuclear weapons. This is what it’s always been about. It isn’t power plant research, and never has been.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Scientists successfully replicate historic nuclear fusion breakthrough three times⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
  @L4s oh, it’s NIF again. Totally not bomb research, honest you guys.

  @shiftymccool I don't have either, because Tailscale lets me browse my home NAS from anywhere anyway.

  @mihnt OTOH, if it’s just you looking for access, consider Tailscale.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:
  @mihnt Well, you could try Dyndns?
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  @aniki As I said, I did the comparisons fully expecting to get a NUC. The Mac was cheaper at the performance point.

  As for US prices, not especially relevant to me. Import taxes are a thing.

  @Skwiggs Few months. I was using an old laptop with Debian before but Friendica was cooking it, literally.

  The M2 Mini doesn’t break a sweat. It just takes the load and gets on with it.
