Yeah. Pity indeed. Also think the stylus is coming soon (TM). Still I wouldn't mind one.
This is great. I have couple of those HP machines which are awesome but was just stacking them on my desk. 10 inch rack will be great for them. Need to do some hunting.
You dont need to explain email so federation does not seem to be the issue here IMO. The problem is money which FLOSS projects usually don't have. The successful ones have perhaps enough so that the devs can put food on their table, but not much else. Most of the apps are after Dayjob hobby projects. It's hard to compete with those who have teams of paid staff.
Disroot founder here 👋 if you have any questions I would be glad to answer. Been doogfooding all services myself as primary communication means. We are small team of ethusiasts and we mainly reuse code writtem by awesome FLOSS contributors in form of services. Not reinventing wheel here. Next year we will celebrate 10 years of existance \o/
Will GPG be baked into the app or still relay on third party like open key chain?
Yes. been following his work for over a year now. I am in the process of building my house but hopefully next year I will have more time to work on energy side of things. I plan to build solar collectors similar to the one from videos where you concentrate sunlight using mirrors and heatup oil. If I manage to get good results and warmup the oil to over 100C (400C should be possible), I plan to build sand-battery in the ground.
Not everyone, but is majority is covered its fine (probably half of it would do the job). Usually parking places or places where you are allowed to park a car are marked so actually shouldn't be an issue.
That's undoubtedly perk of having a house, parking or dedicated spot. But even without those at least here in NL infrastructure as is is pretty good even for those without didcated charging spot. I thin what should be easily done is slow charging spot on every parting spot. Cost wise it's not much and pulling max 2.5kw should not be much of an issue for the grid. In that way every car would have a dedicated charging to fill up over night if needed. Cost of such implementation wouldn't be to big either.
Yeah infra is the issue. Which is stupid as providing simple (16A) socket per car would be sufficient solution for most cars. You come back from work or your commute and just plug the car to slow charger. Over night you are charged enough for next day.
Nah. Anxiety is something you have for first month owning your first EV. Once you adjust to the different way of using the car you realize you drive the same way as petroleum car. One important thing is being able to charge at home IMO. Even from just a socket (16A) is sufficient for most daily cases.
Finally a great action from those folks!made my day.
I'm personally against clonning communities as i think it's largely defragmenting already small communities into seperate little islands. The idea of federation is to create spaces where people can participate together no matter the instance they are from. Creating copies just goes against this idea IMO. One does not need to be on the isntance to participate in communities. That's the beauty of federation. I understand there might be reasons sometimes to do it, but if your idea is to just copy bunch of them so that you're the mod, I find it a waste.
As for disroot's branding of such communities. I think it would require admins to be part of the moderation of such community as it gives others the impression its related or at least supported endorsed by the team. Our idea for the instance was to make it more of a free for all approach then curated set of communities (eg. Beehav). So it makes sense that disroot branded communities are somewhat rated to disroot team or a project. At the same time other communities hosted on the server can use whatever branding they want.
So to sum up my position. I am rather against this idea. Using branding creates association for others. Even if you use disclaimers that it isn't. Since your communities are independent, I would rather see you create a unique branding to your comms so that people seeing them could straight away know who are they moderated and run by.
