Having my 1st DC fast charge via CCS experience. Need to get a NFC capable credit card is becoming clear. Oh well got it working with buggy, proprietary app.

Universal plug and charge can't come too soon..

The fact that HN looks at this and concludes "this is not open source" because it's not on github makes it more interesting to me, not less.

This is a pretty interesting approach at an alternative to the current free software development process. Using #Dynamicland of which I have various incohate opinions.

The idea of, here is my binder full of programs and here's a tool to diff it with your binder full of programs and patch from one to the other, could be implemented without expensive projection displays and cameras and a hidden cloud component. Free software doesn't have to be published globally.

(Or just package any firefox fork already, so those of use who care can switch to it.)

ok, I'm just gonna say it. Debian needs to find a maintainer for firefox who is not employed by Mozilla.

Debian should be stripping out all this adtech that Mozilla keeps putting in.
We've been filing bugs for years, and they are continually ignored.
It's probably not happening because that's a lot of work, but having a Mozilla employee involved leaves Debian vulnerable to a perception of conflict of interest.

how on earth is "duopolize" a word that is "obsolete" and only was used in the 1600's?

it's the dominant mode of most of modern commerce, industry, politics, that doesn't just happen.

I don't really want to reprogram my electric teakettle, but I am curious about one part of its programming: What was the idea behind making its base emit a plaintive beeping cry when the kettle is left off of it for 5 minutes? Poor sad base separated from its child, wanting to warm it back up.

5 hours digging post holes... 1/4th done

Neighbor helped unload the lumber, and I unloaded 1500 lbs of concrete bags. That was a full truck.

hauled in the rest of my supplies for the #solar install

This is how behind I am on everything. After deleting about 6000 other blog posts unread.

I'm pretty behind on everything, but how did I not hear that every major browser let javascript connect to 0.0.0.0, even the ones that tried to block access to localhost and localnets?

I mean, I have code for my own little thing that gets this right. I read an RFC while implementing it of course. Thought that 0.0.0.0 was common knowledge anyway.

it is weird seeing 0.0.0.0 being given the named security hole treatment.

This one is very reproducible and I'm curious what it could be. My best guess is maybe gnome shell is crashing+restarting and paperwm loses its place?

(gnome 46 brought this new delight)

the mddle mouse button thing is nothing to my other recent #gnome problem. When I plug in a USB power cable, #paperwm switches to a different window

Now imagine a slightly wobbly USB cable

I doubt I have long remaining with this software

my middle mouse button paste stopped working yesterday

I eventually found the #gnome config for it. It was set to allow pasting. I turned it off. Then I turned it back on. Pasting worked again.

It should be impossible for your software to behave this way.

traded grain for rock

getting my rock delivery before winter, yay!

about 4 yards for solar panel mounting purposes, and then something like 15 more yards spare will be spread on the driveway

rock day!!

#offgrid solar charged my EV 10 miles today over 4 hours. not bad at all for such a small PV system.

If it wasn't for winter, this would be sufficient ;-)

nope, that's kmph. Why do people omit units everywhere in software?

charging the EV at 1.8 mph according to its API. heh

Apparently the API can be used to reduce amps lower than 5, which is the limit in the UI. I haven't played with that yet. At some point all power will be going to run the charger and computer and none will be going into the battery.

Power is looking good and steady from the EV's POV..

consuming slightly more than production, but 100 watts for a few hours is not a problem at all for house battery and it will charge up this evening when there's not enough power to make sense to charge the car
