I'm Sarah. I'm a Brit who fled to Portugal on account of Brexit, increasing intolerance and the British weather. I like climbing (although I can't do much any more for health reasons) and sailing. This is a Friendica account. Friendica is kinda like Facebook as Mastodon is kinda like Twitter, except they can talk to each other.

@gAlienLifeform this is what much of the EU public is voting for, cheered on by the media which finds the extreme right irresistibly sexy.

They are voting for murdering desperate people.

And they’re going to keep doing it, because it’s easy to push the narrative that these people aren’t human beings with hopes and fears and desires, but some amorphous threat that “must be stopped”.

We can be better than this, but we never see to chose to be.

@silence7 Mecca, you say?

In Saudi, you say?

Fossil fuel HQ? That Saudi?

@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.

@Monomate @boem Because he owes the banks a shedload of money which he may have to start paying back if the value drops too much.

@DolphinMath “look what I made you do to myself!”

@uriel238 @cyu Realistically, I can't see it being cheaper than implants, and will probably need lots of orthodontic treatment when the new tooth comes through.

I have an implant, with bone regeneration, and honestly, it's just a tooth. Even with the bone regeneration, my total time in the chair was probably less than 90 minutes.

And, bonus, I can't get toothache in it, and if it breaks, it's 2 weeks to replace it like nothing happened.

The only way I see this competing with implants if it's cheaper (honestly can't see that happening) or less hassle (again, seems unlikely).

Implants are that good, and they're gonna be hard to displace as the "gold standard" to replace missing teeth.

@Stopthatgirl7 if they paid attention to the opt out, they wouldn’t have asked me three times, when I said to opt out the first time.

@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”

@fry I love CarPlay, but my Leaf can also control climate without leaving CarPlay with the use of actual physical buttons.

Best of both worlds.

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

@Australis13 @HowRu68 There certainly should be.

@Veritas "I'm sorry, I can't find speech recognition has reached human cognition levels in your Apple Music library."

@Uprise42 @fry At 400km, you and I have different definitions of short range.

@Skunk Nice. I’m happy with the M2 running MacOS and just spinning up Linux VMs in UTM as needed. It seems to handle them without breaking a sweat and, for self hosted stuff, having the VM bridged to a VLAN tagged interface gives me that extra reassurance without having to have the whole machine on that interface.

If the baddies compromise the Friendica server, I can just Remote Desktop into the Mac and nuke the VM. Bye bye.

@Agraetawahtollroad the hell is your problem? STOP SPAMMING THIS ARTICLE.

@Agraetawahtollroad please stop spamming these articles.

@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.

@ninjan friendica can get quite heavyweight.

@Moonrise2473 Tailscale is literally a VPN app.

@glasgitarrewelt Thanks. The routing is less the issue than creating the interface that sends traffic to the Tailscale exit node. AIUI the way Tailscale operates on OpenWRT is to provide an interface whose destination is the tailnet, not an exit node.

@Uprise42 @fry It sounds like you got the one with the smaller battery.

@fry I love it. The use of ChaDeMo over CCS2 is a bit of a pain, but I can live with it.

@aniki because it was the cheapest machine available for the performance I wanted in a useful form factor.

@TCB13 I was surprised as well.

@fearout @ourlifeintoronto Specifically, is this a way to remove the need for it in our models or not?

@Moonrise2473 VPN apps are supported as of TvOS 17. Tailscale is one of the first

@BornDeranged Honestly, moving stuff to the cloud is trivial. Everything is in containers and I can just setup the nginx reverse proxy that’s also running on the VLAN to redirect to the cloud. Job done.

@BornDeranged I’m running everything in containers. Not got anything which cares which architecture the server is. Data is data.

@ourlifeintoronto The article touches on implications for dark energy. Anybody knowledgable in the area able to say a bit more about that?

@deleted I couldn’t find one with equivalent performance to the M2 for less money.

I am not purchasing in dollars.

@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.
