Perhaps more to do with this. Google no longer has legal problems in the US under Trump.

These outlier polls give me the heebijeebies. Some friends are very calm looking at the "nicer" polls. I can't shake the feeling that they're missing some undercurrent.

What the 🦆

I think there's more than that in mismanagement on the side of the German state, but these are definitely key elements.

So you're saying it's safe to use their DNS without worrying much about data collection? 😂 I like it.

Not exactly what you want but thought worth mentioning - Cash Passport. It's available at Canada Post locations. You can also buy single-use credit cards there. I think both require ID however so they're not suitable for anonymous purchases.

Some additional keywords on the tech behind this extended range capability:

... self-generated anode battery technology (which no longer uses traditional graphite anode material but allows elements to deposit on the current collector in metallic form, increasing volumetric energy density by 60% and gravimetric energy density by 50%)

...

Additionally, CATL's self-generated anode technology can be adapted to multiple material systems. For example, when paired with sodium-ion systems, the energy density can reach 350Wh/L; with phosphate systems, it can reach 680-780Wh/L; and with ternary systems, it can exceed 1000Wh/L.

Source

The source cites CATL, but this self-generating anode tech has apparently been studied for a while by more than CATL.

You may still get hit with the tariff if it's shipped from overseas. In such a scenario, you're the importer and likely responsible for any duties and fees.

This thread makes me so proud 🥲

Seems like they forgot to take an important lesson of FDI's success in China - take shared control of the new assets. Neoliberal indoctrination would do that to you.

The next government should pass a complementary law that requires these companies to cooperate with Canadian media (and pay according to the existing law) or exit the market. The first law was never complete.

I was with you back in the day, but they way the world and these companies have shifted over the last decade in how they operate just makes this an instant no-no for me. I wish it wasn't the case because we could have nice things if the system didn't require them to profit-maximize.

Is there an open source package that the Internet Archive runs? What is it? I assume sites like archive.is run the same. I'd like to know if I can also run it for self-hosted archiving.

 

Oh boy, what a landmine to navigate around...

That's it. ♥️

On March 14, commuters will be reimbursed their single-ride TTC fare when transferring to and from GO Transit. Additionally, TTC riders will also be able to use their free two-hour transfer to and from other municipal transit agencies.

Wow.

It's an SPST-NO micro switch. Don't waste time searching for it. I already wasted mine. Just let me know what it is if you know it off the top of your head. 😊

Very interesting watch. Shows very clearly how different prisoner's dilemma strategies work and what traits make a successful one.

 
 

Canada's economy was essentially unchanged for the third consecutive month in October, missing growth forecasts, but gross domestic product likely edged up in November, Statistics Canada data showed on Friday.

Here is our regular update that explains what we have been working on for the past two weeks. This should allow average users to keep up with development, without reading Github comments or knowing how to program.

Last Friday we finally released Lemmy 0.19.0, after a long development time and extensive bug fixing. Read the announcement to find out about the major changes. A few days later on Wednesday we had to publish 0.19.1 to fix a few more bugs that slipped through.

@phiresky fixed the critical bug with outgoing federation in 0.19. Previously he fixed an authentication bug in lemmy-ui which was blocking the 0.19 release.

@dessalines fixed the broken logic for "hide read posts". He also fixed a problem with email login being case sensitive

@nutomic reenabled pushing to crates.io so Rust developers can easily interact with Lemmy. He also made performance optimizations for /api/v3/site and the optimized the Activitypub context sent by Lemmy, reducing the database size and the amount of data sent between instances. He fixed various tests to prevent random failures in continuous integration 1 2

@dullbananas has long been busy improving the database queries for Lemmy, such as fixing a bug in the way different posts sorts are combined, and improving the test cases.

This is our last update for 2023. It was a very busy year for Lemmy, and it looks like 2024 might have even more changes in store. So lets enjoy these holidays, have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Support development

@dessalines and @nutomic are working full-time on Lemmy to integrate community contributions, fix bugs, optimize performance and much more. This work is funded exclusively through donations.

If you like using Lemmy, and want to make sure that we will always be available to work full time building it, consider donating to support its development. Recurring donations are ideal because they allow for long-term planning. But also one-time donations of any amount help us.
