The difference is that in the USA about 10 million Americans have been out in the streets protesting all of the fascist regime’s abuses. The judicial branch of the US gov’t is also making efforts to block illegal abusive actions with moderate success. The difference is that in the USA we have the rights to fight these things.

How did that process work? Did you just connect the +/- ends of the cell to the +/- 12v wires of the PSU and let it feed from the high-amp outputs? Imagine there’s plenty of amps on the GPU and CPU power wires

Yeah that’s a good point. Ours uses the same refrigerant system as the AC to cool the battery, and the actual “charger” for the battery is inside the car being controlled by its software etc. The cables that plug in on the outside are technically just power wires, with the charging brains inside the car. That would be amazing if they could update the software to rejuvenate the battery once a year or something.

Important note near the end of the article - they aren’t saying we should cook batteries really -

“The team’s hypothesis is that the structural disorder developing inside LIBs may become a “tunable parameter” that, if tweaked using chargers at precise voltages to alter said battery composition, could be used to rejuvenate the batteries in our tech without fires.”

This is a good old idea that goes back to the days of desulfating lead batteries with powerful shocks of high-amperage current. Might just need a special Healing Charger that applies the right voltage/current to dissolve the bad crystals in lithium-ion systems

Speaking of the M-cpu Macs and RPCS3, I got the old PS3 Demon’s Souls to work pretty well on an M1 + 8GB RAM Mac last year. Pretty nice to be able to play a “PS3 exclusive” Souls game on a Mac considering the total lack of Souls titles available for MacOS.

There is the Skywind project, but I’m not sure if any progress has been made in the last year

Holy shit it’s Bloodborne 2 with jetpacks!

Imagine discussing your emotions with a computer, LOL. Nerds!

That’s just a web search, we already have had that for decades and it didn’t require nuclear-powered datacenters

I didn’t even know “private” posts were a thing on the fediverse but now I guess I know to watch out for that. Maybe I’ll post some privates after losing about 30 lbs

The solution is asshole first, bore second, idiot last.

I promoted Lemmy several times on Reddit and didn’t have any problems. I don’t really give a fuck if they ban that worthless account so I will continue to do so.

Cheese frisbee!

Bandcamp is great for music downloads

It depends, sometimes you can “buy” digital ownership from these places in the form of DRM-free files. If you are able to download the DRM-free file and make a reliable backup of it, then I could call that actual ownership. This is how I approach my music and ebook libraries. I don’t do subscriptions for streaming anything but TV.

You can even buy books directly from publishers. Recently I wanted a hardback copy of a book and it was out of stock, backordered, or absurdly high priced on all the big popular online places. Ended up ordering it for MSRP from Penguin Random House direct.

1. To get a camera with RTSP or ONVIF (video stream output) support, you look at the specifications of cameras that are available for sale. Web search engines should be helpful for this pursuit.

2. To get the surveillance functions of your camera streams (recording, alerts, etc) you install software on the Raspberry Pi that aggregates and records / analyzes the camera feeds. Zoneminder, Shinobi, and Motioneye are some examples of that kind of software.

It’s not that hard, and you only need cameras and the raspberry pi.

Pretty much any wifi camera that supports standards like RTSP or ONVIF can be made to work with open source camera stuff on the Pi. Also you can store the videos on the RPi’s storage (USB or SD)
