The author seems dead set on a tauri calendar implementation. I came across what is apparently a scheduling toolkit in rust:

https://github.com/fmeringdal/nettu-scheduler

Which I guess could be used to build a desktop calendar app. One flaw in the ointment is that a calendar program really needs email integration. Downloading an ICS file and manually transferring that over to your calendar app isn’t going to cut it.

Which brings us to the lack of solid calendar servers. I’ve searched but I haven’t found anything popular, OSS, easy to install, and useful for groups. Radicale exists but multi user support is a janky hack, while Nextcloud has unreliable sync. I’m looking for features like:

• reliable calendar sync
• sharable calendars.
• scheduling help - when to have a meeting?
• how many attendees for a group event, how many invited etc.

nope

Hot take: tire particulates are a conservative anti-EV talking point. “My V8 mustang weighs less than an EV, therefore its better on pollution than a EV because tire particulates”. Totally disregarding the impact of tailpipe emissions.

aw, he may be a genocide loving nazi, but at least its from the heart. won’t someone give him some money?

IMO this device is more of a prototype for working out issues with risc-v in a framework chassis. Not really for doing practical work at this point. Could mean that framework expects a powerful risc-v chip in the next few years, and wants to lay the groundwork for that now.

Seems to me mainly of interest to devs who want to prep for a future generation of risc-v chips.

I’m more looking for a federated RPAN than a tiktok.

And the word grok comes from stranger in a strange land, not hitchhikers guide.

Yes they literally pull in particles from the bathroom air and blow them directly on your hands.

Mercedes “full self driving” is only on designated routes.

Just like mercedes ‘full self driving’ this sounds like its on limited routes where there’s been extensive testing. I don’t expect truck driving to go full auto on arbitrary roads in the next few years. The tech is not there yet.

I blame the politicians like Richard Shelby actively preventing any other technology from being used or even considered. The lack of zeal was from the people in charge of the money, who clearly had no interest in space beyond its ability to get them and their pals larger McMansions on a golf course somewhere. Myopic, stupid and corrupt assholes.

Its kind of insane that EV manufacturers are making battery packs out of a lot of individual cells, rather than one integrated unit like this.

The biggest downside I see to the shuttle is how it blocked anything better. Spaceflight got stuck in a local maximum for 30 years, possibly solely to enrich certain congressional districts and well connected contractors. True reuse is needed to make manned space travel possible to more than a few elite astronauts, and the shuttle never had that.

And they were smart enough to recognize it as a huge boondoggle and cancel it, before killing a bunch of astronauts.

There’s the thinkpad x13s. But its pretty slow. Should be snapdragon elite laptops coming out this year tho.

Its longer than you think!

I might consider one used, for 1/3 or less the price of new. But would be holding my nose for sure. And not enthused about driving a phone with wheels, but there’s hardly an EV out there that isn’t.
