In Europe (mainly Germany ATM) there has been a wordplay on this for a few years, the "kidical mass" movement:

I am not of the persuasion that a for-profit corporation can maintain a standard. A standard in my mind is an industry-wide effort to create an open, low baseline and barrier of entry without proprietariness. Even if 90% of bikes have a Bosch motor, that's not a standard if it's not open.

While I agree that more standardisation would be beneficial, especially regarding electronics(!), the rest of the bike is fairly standardized (wheel / bottom bracket / pedal screw / steering column diameter etc.) . Unfortunately, I think the introduction of electronics via ebikes and other "new" technologies for the bike are diluting that standardisation in my perception. For another view point of why biking may be shit in your area, I invite you to watch a few videos of this channel: https://youtu.be/ORzNZUeUHAM

Can you point me to a stream / site to buy the film "we are as gods"? I don't see any button on the the stripe press page nor anywhere else on the net.

As often, there are multiple sides to the story of Arabic clans in Germany. A journalist and a member of a Clan-Family sat down and did a 12-part podcast to try and clear up with some of the preconceptions people have about these clans. It's called "Clanland" (in German).

I don't want to play this awful heist down, the podcast gave me some perspective to clan structures in Germany though. What the thieves did is absolutely appalling.

While also seeing deep belief in corporations sceptically myself, I don't think it should be the root cause of scepticism toward apple. The maximisation of proprietariness paired with this "deep belief" breads a really hard possibility to switch vendor (of whatever product), locking people in so much that the perceived cost of privacy-breaching software is lower than the cost of switching.

This is really impressive! After a few legit responses, I got this: with the input

The sun is shining today so I am thinking about going down to the lake and sail my boat. I shouldn't go by bike because

I agree on the general problem of identity. Implementation-wise one could also think of some kind of digital numberplate, which can change, so that people can't follow you around on the net, but is still unmistakenly linked to you or your device.

I second this! I've been sending sensor data into the https://sensor.community cloud for over a year now, with dead simple setup and forget-about-it attitude since then. For the lazy there is also an option of spending ~50€ for a plug-and-play version [1]. Independently of that, you also get a grafana web GUI after registering your chip, e.g. [2]. On another note, I hope these databases from similar projects stay mergable or the projects even merge.

Interesting, care to share that site?

I don't want to criticize the survivorship bias, but i'm finding it hard to work with the example used. Isn't focusing on (great white) sharks at the shore based on the fact that more people will encounter a shark at the shore, and therefore should be primarily informed about these encounters?

There's an interesting follow up investigation [1] npr did a month ago concerning plastic recycling. Essentially they confirm what OPs article claims.
