Y'all know I try my best not to post negative stuff, but today is an exception. This. Is. Bullshit. Super bright surroundings. Not anything like dark sky. I simply will not accept this. If you, or someone you know, is a genuine rocket type scientist, and feels the same, let's talk. I have 40 years of metal fabrication experience, and access to surplus bowling balls. I'm thinking spin launch meets Wiley Coyote, but successful.

Alucinando con las novedades del CES. Todos los equipos que me llegan son Copilot+ que llevan NPUS con nosecuentos Tops y sus muertos a caballo todo IA ready y si te descuidas te meten un putisimo avión dentro. Mientras, mi nuevo MiniPC es un i5 con 12 nucleos y 1,3 GHz, 16 de RAM, SSd de 512 y GPU integrada, y con Linux no me hacen falta pijadas (y vale cuatro veces menos). Alucino con la potencia que pide ahora un Windows y todo el mundo picando. Ni el League of Legends a toda hostia.

Bose recently did an unambiguously good thing, by publishing the API for the audio hardware they were originally going to brick: https://www.theverge.com/news/858501/bose-soundtouch-smart-speakers-open-source

However, I've seen some people say "don't praise Bose for this, they didn't do this until there was backlash".

SHUT UP. Shut the FUCK UP. I'm DONE living in a society where you get dragged through hell if you make a mistake, EVEN AFTER YOU CORRECT THE MISTAKE. I'm so fucking tired of hearing stupid excuses for this kind of puritanism like "they should've known better" NOBODY KNOWS BETTER UNTIL *AFTER THEY MAKE THE MISTAKE*. THAT'S HOW LEARNING *WORKS*.

And before you say "Companies aren't your friend" PUNISHING THEM FOR FIXING THEIR MISTAKES WON'T MAKE THEM DO THE RIGHT THING EITHER. If other people, or companies, see someone get punished for both messing up AND fixing the mistake, they just won't bother at all!

People HAVE to be allowed to make mistakes. They HAVE to be given a chance to improve.

Tres aplicaciones #Android que me encantan para escuchar #podcasts
y tres cosas que me gustarían que cambiaran:

1era app- Podcast & Radio Addict: que la navegación no sea solo a través de un cajón, sino que tuviera la opción de una barra inferior.
2da app- Pocket Cast: que la pantalla del reproductor no solo sea de color oscuro, sino que tuviera la opción de cambiar al modo claro como hacen la mayoría de las aplicaciones.
3era app- Antennapod: que las carátulas no consuman tantos datos móviles.

I’m so angry with what’s in today’s news here in America I am having trouble stringing complete sentences together.

All I can do is say I #StandWithMinnesota and Governor Walz, with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, with all of the legitimate authorities on the ground protecting locals and investigating this horrific murder. I stand with the brave protesters there and around the country in this grim, grim moment.

The U.S. is truly at a crossroads. We haven’t seen such schism since the Civil War.

ICE should be dissolved and all ERO agents should be prosecuted and/or barred from any future public service. #Politics #UsPol

Es súper importante que entendáis que solo sois muñequitos dentro de mi teléfono

A ver si lo entiendo. Feliz de que Google te recuerde dónde has aparcado el coche, cuáles son tus hábitos de transporte, dónde está tu casa y tu trabajo. Pero que la DGT sepa dónde está tu coche cuando tienes un accidente, eso sí que no.

@tagesschau the wrong ICE is melting, the wrong amazon is burning

Thanks for the free 7-day trial of 2026.

I'd like to unsubscribe from whatever the hell this is.

"SpaceX's plan to launch an additional 15,000 satellites for its Starlink cellular system has sparked opposition and concern from rival companies and environmentalists."

Such as Viasat, Globalstar, DarkSky International, Blue Origin, Iridium, Ligado, and the Mobile Satellite Services Association.

"The big question is whether the pushback sways the FCC. The Commission's Republican chairman, Brendan Carr, is a supporter of SpaceX ..."

ICE has recently bought the capability of monitoring the location histories of entire neighborhoods worth of phones. The data is likely harvested from apps that sell your data, which filters up through data brokers and eventually to companies that sell to ICE:

I often hear Americans & rich brits justify buying oversized, polluting vehicles by claiming they need them because they live in the "countryside".

I call bullshit, Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to introduce, the Citroen C15⬇

QUESTION

If you lived in Germany in the 1930s and you found out that a family member was in the Gestapo (secret state police) what would you do?

Let me put this another way.

If you are an American and you know someone who is a member of ICE what are you going to do about it?
