Oops! I saw police overreach and just assumed it was US.

Even if it was glorifying nazis, that’s still protected by the 1st Amendment. The police had no business stealing these properties from the owner.

Is it satire, though? These ghouls are actually nazis, after all.

Won’t happen. Google ran YouTube at a net loss for a decade before turning a profit. Very few companies have the kind of money to invest like that. Video hosting is crazy expensive, especially when it’s free.
It’s actually the backseat, if you move the camera using mods.

It’s like resuscitating a dying animal, just so you could kill it yourself.

Read beyond the headline. This is about Pixel MDM including more data, not about RCS actually having any significant update.

This isn’t really even about RCS, but okay.

It’s a ton of fun. Honestly, I suggest you play it the way I did as a kid, and bring out a bunch of paper and pencils and start drawing your own maps by hand. There’s something magical about that process, imo.
- Chozo@fedia.iotoAsk Electronics@discuss.tchncs.de•How would I make a HVAC simulator to see what a thermostat would do if the indoor temp was 425°F (frozen pizza cooking temps)9·3 months ago
I used to work as a PQI contractor at Nest, and we actually had test setups like this in the office that were just a circuit breadboard mounted on a plate behind the thermostat. The thermostat doesn’t really “communicate” with the HVAC control system at all (all it does is just send ~3V along the circuits based on its current mode), so as long as you have the circuits routed properly on your board, the thermostat will think it’s connected to a real system.
The stock firmware doesn’t let you go above a certain temp (like 80F or something, I forget the exact limit). But if your custom firmware allows it, the only thing that would realistically happen is that it just runs a 3V circuit to what it thinks is the heater, infinitely, since nothing is actually causing the ambient temperature to raise at all. The ambient temp reading comes from a sensor on the thermostat, itself.
I had a teacher in 6th grade who told us that God placed the earth the perfect distance from the Sun; a few inches closer and we’d all burn, and a few inches further and we’d all freeze. I got detention for standing on top of my desk and asking why I wasn’t on fire yet.
That kinda shattered my view of teachers being arbiters of knowledge.

Mopeds are motorbikes.
I think the canted touchpads are a nice touch, and inline sticks are the way to go (I can’t believe Nintendo and Microsoft continue to get this wrong).

This makes me doubt the author of the article’s credibility. What exactly is the “perfect resolution” of a hand painted piece of art?
High-enough that you can’t distinguish individual pixels with your eye. At least, that’s how Apple defines their retina displays; not sure if these guys are following the same standard for that terminology or not.

What about this is clickbait?
If they promoted it on another FOSS platform, nobody would see it.
