Assuming V2G means Vehicle to Ground, this is something I would like to see for the following use-case.

I would like to use my car battery as a temporary home battery in the inevitable case of a grid outage. This opens the option to bring energy home from another location. Reduce or eliminates the need for a battery in a grid-tied house.

Am I crazy?

Edit: Granted that doesn't mean the energy company can use my car's battery at it's whim. I think compensation would be required and would actually make a lot of sense. It isn't like the electric company could build out a battery system for cheaper. It would need to be a higher compensation than to PV though. Batteries are more expensive and should be compensated as such.

Maybe, I switched myself and family to bitwarden. Once I did the transition I realized how easy it was. I spent maybe 5-10 minutes to help my mom transition.

tldr: 1) Create bitwarden account 2) Export file in Lastpass 3) Import file in bitwarden

Same, it begins. My ISP needs to get it's act together.

Dude! This exactly. Think about having to explain that to NASA. Ahh sorry I can't fix this major SEC issue because our developers can't do a release atm. It went over as well as you'd think. I had to pull out our actual contract to be like "Well... we actually have like 8 days to fix this criticality of SEC so..." Then prayed to Al Gore and Linus Torvalds that what ever this dependency was would be resolved before I got my ass handed to me.

This is awesome. I can't wait to dig into it. I was contemplating creating creating the same thing roughly. Maybe I can now leverage this instead :-)

Btw if you do this often look into the Auto Reader View addon. Then the common places you visit and can use reader view will be viewed in reader view immediately. The escape hatch works to which is nice. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/auto-reader-v...

Agree, I'm wondering when they start going door to door removing peoples "right" to be on the internet due to their beliefs. It seems the silent stick has finally come to the US and likely the whole world by extension/association.

That's is interesting. Makes me wonder what will happen now that this is happening to a much broader group of people. The migrations and reactions will be larger than we have seen in the past. It feels almost like we are seeing the slow creation of internet slums. An expansion to the legitimate dark web?

This shakes me deep. Web 3.0 can't come soon enough.

Can anyone talk to if nixos can reasonably be used to run a desktop setup?

Agree, I hope it's a possible solution. Just thought it was interesting after hearing about the technology a few days ago in relation to sound suppression and rocket launches.

Interesting, this claims that fish and other wildlife can pass through but they don't seem to explain how it's different from bubble barriers used to deter fish from passing into underwater construction zones related to drilling or pile driving [1].

This is very cool. I've always wanted to do something like this. I hope to use snuffy in the future. Thanks for the great walk through!

I think in a way you are countering your first point that it's good that it's simple. I'm not big into the facial recognition space but I'd imagine that the tech is saving personalized feature vectors and not images. Thus making the definition already moot. Then again maybe that means the language isn't simple enough.

The social media loophole seems ripe for exploit. As long as the destination of the content goes to a social platform it's all free game.

I wonder what they will consider a social platform as people develop new systems to get around this law. Cuz logic and unknown reasons.

I feel the same way. It seems like the future is going to be some cyberpunk place where people have masks or face tattoos to obscure tracking regardless of legislation like this. I'm very pro privacy and facial recognition is quite scary but it seems an impossible tech to contain.

In theory, but not in practice, we can ensure governments aren't using it but businesses and private individuals seem almost impossible. Certainly underground businesses will take advantage of it like the mafia or other groups who figure out how to weaponize it.

Meh, I think SLS will fold after a flight or two. There is no way to justify spending $800M per launch, assuming they launch at least twice, every 1.5-2 years when NASA could spend $150M for a Falcon Heavy launch or less when Starship starts flying. Especially when SpaceX can provide many launches per year.

Then again the US government doesn't really care if taxpayer money is well spent. NASA needs to shift gears to science and exploration. More rovers and deep space probes please and thank you.

It's kinda important to note why they have been barred. They broke international space laws and were caught hacking JPL. Additionally china's space program is tightly tied to their milliary unlike NASA, ESA, JAXA, CSA, and Roscosmos.

This tells me either they don't have to pass their automated testing suite to do releases, or worst of all the functionality is broken on purpose. Anchors are HTML 101. Something is really messed up somewhere for this to be an issue for 8 production releases now. This started in Chrome 76 and 84 is the current version.

Having had 5 others in my life die from traditional cancer treatment I can certainly understand why people look for alternatives. I've seen brain, skin, blood cancer as an adult and I'm not sure what other cancers relatives had while I was growing up.

I've always worried if I would have the strength to fight or cave.

peer-to-peer distributed hosting has been maturing.

Cloudflare has an ipfs gateway. https://blog.cloudflare.com/distributed-web-gateway/

The Brave browser also supports ipfs out of the box.

This is the Web 3.0 movement. The distributed web is on its way.

Yup, my sister said she is making two times as much here in MO. She was blown away. Honestly I thought it was a mistake in her favor until I read this.

One brick on the road out of CCP's China.

Finally, we start talking about the real issue. \s

Seems like a possible future use-case for systemd's homed. Maybe there will be a utility in the future to help setup configuration. 1 internet point for the person whom implements it first.

Do you have any suggestions on alternative methods, personal or otherwise?

I wish Opera would open source their presto engine. I'm guessing that isn't possible due to some licensing issues. Personally I find it unfortunate that all that amazing work will be lost. While I didn't use Opera due to it's proprietary nature, as a browser engine it was competitive for its time.

I'm having the same feeling now about the EdgeHTML engine which is now being fazed out. This engine was a breath of fresh air compared to trident. It was bringing value to the internet space.

Granted, I do realize there are perfectly valid business reasons Opera and Edge switched to chromium.

It is if your the one maintaining it. It's not like people are paying the person to accept their patches. If they want their patch applied they can fork the project. The maintainer isn't a slave to others.

Under what obligation does the maintainer NEED to accept any patch? It's his project he built. He can build or destroy his work as he sees fit. If you have an issue fork it. This is how things like libreoffice, mariadb, and countless other projects have come to exist.

I use Temporary Containers all day. Love this addon. This is fantastic not only for privacy/security for everyday use but also great for testing sites while doing development. It becomes really easy to be logged into all the different types of users in a website at the same time and see the interaction.

Thanks for your perspective
