icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If you knew the internet was going to be shutdown, damaged, or colossally enshittified what software would you archive for use locally and use for a neighborhood/town mesh network? Why?241·2 months agoI have started to do this and I’m using Docker to host Kiwix. I’m currently using it to provide offline versions of Wikipedia, medical guides and tutorials for various programming languages. My plan is to put essential apps and information on an RPi and provide a broadcast hotspot where anyone can access the info.
I also live on top of a hill, so I’m saving up to put together a solar powered Meshtastic repeater that I can mount to my aerial pole.
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What acronyms are you annoyed to see take on other meanings?46·3 months agoWireless Application Protocol. I can no longer say on my CV that I ‘worked on WAP in the early 2000s’.
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto BuyFromEU@feddit.org•Analog barcode interpretationEnglish3·4 months agoBut by the method you use in your first 2 examples, you start with the digit to the left of the barcode, reading digits 1, 2 and 3 of the 13-digit code. In your USA example, you start with the digit inside the barcode and read digits 2, 3 and 4 of the 13-digit code.
Following the same rule as your European examples would give 509, not 099, no?
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto retrocomputing@lemmy.sdf.org•Silicon Graphics 50 Hz Gaggia Espressigo10·4 months agoI’ve loved the SGI industrial design since I first saw it in the 90s. It still feels futuristic to me today.
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesco trials giant trolley scales in GatesheadEnglish15·4 months agoYet more anti-consumer technology to go alongside the gates that won’t let you out until you scan your receipt, the ANPR in the car park, the hair-trigger scales on the bagging area, etc. All to crush that extra penny of profit from us.
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Europe@feddit.org•Germany to reach out to France and UK over sharing of nuclear weaponsEnglish610·4 months agoUK has American-supplied and maintained nukes so maybe not a great long-term prospect?
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•What's next? Picoservices?9·4 months agoWhat’s next? Femtofunctions
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Cyberpunk@lemmy.zip•Milla Jovovich Teases Return as Leeloo from ‘The Fifth Element’ in an Animated Spin-Off15·5 months agoBig bad-a cashgrab
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•After you blow your nose, do you look in the tissue?6·6 months agoTo be fair, your username kind of suggests you want to look inside everything anyway
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Google gets an error-corrected quantum bit to be stable for an hourEnglish3·7 months agoI’d forgotten all about Google+ until you made this observation
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Google gets an error-corrected quantum bit to be stable for an hourEnglish50·7 months agoAbout how far does this leave us from a usable quantum processor? How far from all current cryptographic algorithms being junk?
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•German island to end ritual of spanking women with cow hornEnglish185·7 months agoOk, good first step. When do the prosecutions for physical abuse start?
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What should i get my 10yo nephew that’s all into radical sports and anything physical for xmas?3·8 months agoI don’t know where you live, but if you have a Hado arena nearby, then a taster session might be a good gift. It’s an augmented reality sport which can be played casually or professionally. There are arenas all over the world.
Unfortunately their world site is a little out of date. I know quite a few kids in my area of the UK, at around that age, who are getting into it.
icerunner_origin@startrek.websiteto ShowerThoughts@sh.itjust.works•Could microplastics be eroding empathy in human brains?1·8 months agoThe impact of micro plastics cannot be studied because there is no control group. Hard to say what microplastics do to the human brain when the researchers might find it hard to form a group without brain plastic
Upskill. I’m not ‘upskilling’ someone, I’m training them.
Would you settle for a single clergyman?
Time to go all Wilford Brimley on his ass.
