Don’t buy anything from Google. It’s an evil company now.

They need the money to sue more grandmas.

Yup. But also note that Lemmy is not redundant. You can bring back this channel but without our conversation. We need redundancy and replication.

I for one would want a more open source system where a single guy running a server doesn’t have all the power in the forum. It would be awesome if a fedi form of forums took over and one could replicate all the info as relays.

I think this is a good point. Another person made a similar comment. And I it totally makes sense. Like I could serve my resume on my personal website and then just link it to a short description on a Lemmy instance or channel that was relevant.

That makes it at least a little harder for data scrubbing bots to get my info when I’m not looking for a job. I can just take my resume off line. With kinked in you basically come to the employee store, find a shelve and you permanently glue your resume there hoping that someone would call you. So all your info is right there for any phishing to take place later.

So then Photoprism is going to lock my photos and ask my mom for money to see them?

Its selfhosting, not freehosting for yet another asshole company.

I started with handmedowns donated to my by someone from mastodon that was getting rid of junk computers. All tiny think stations.

Tell them you’ll bring the music but instead play books at them during quiet times…lord of the rings anyone?

Yeah, gimmy Linux instead!

I’m not gonna believe any of it. It’s probably not just backdored, it probably has its central server at the FBI. Google/Apple/Microsoft have zero respect for your privacy.

All I can say is that it works. I’ve tested this using a flashlight and polarized film on the lamp and on my safety glasses. It makes everything evenly lit. Other light sources become useful since you’re not blinded by the incoming light.

I know. It’s not my idea, this is old old. So its amazing how much we seem to like people crashing at night.

One big challenge with this is that the human eye has not followed all the technological advances… Its still gonna give you shit after the age of 40. So that means you cannot have a simple mirror reflection system where the driver simply focuses on stuff outside of the car and then from time to time onto the HUD. But I think Mamazon and the apple companies have figure either automated focusing or long distance focusing such that the eye doesn’t have to focus on shit up close while driving. So it’s totally doable.

Maybe guns are the solution. Just gotta aim for the LED’s! Lol.

Yup pretty simple.

Its just weird. Once you see it, its just like any other thing in life.

There’s Horizontal and vertical polarization as well as circular polarization. In a simple explanation , think of horizontal as a fence with horizontal bars so that only the horizontal part of the photons pass thru. Now once those horizontal photons pass, they will meet surfaces, which will reflect back their light so your eyes can see it. However, in this experiment only the vertical photons will pass your windshield. Because polarization depends on the angle of incidence, you will get some of the horizontally polarized light back as vertically polarized light which will pass thru. The effect is psychedelic. I totally recommend you to try it. You need polarized glasses, a flashlight and a piece of polarized film to place on your flashlight. The colors and shapes come back to you without defined form or glimmers so stuff looks normal, but weird as heck.

I agree with you. Our king Elon tried to make our cars automatic. Our felon president trumpfus will be banning electric cars and orange lights because he doesn’t like to be called orange face.

But yeah otherwise not too crazy of a solution.

If all LED headlamps followed a new polarization standard, things could be very cool. As an example, let’s say the headlights could only shine horizontally polarized light and the windshields could only pass vertically polarized light. That means that one could see every thing very clearly because you wouldn’t be blinded by the cars coming on the opposite side. Your light would illuminate everything in from of you, which would then reflect non polarized light back at you plus all other light reflections from other sources like street lamps. Houses could be fitted with the same filter film as older cars. Similarly, people could wear polarized glasses and get the same benefit.

Should your company get a fedivers account?

Let’s look at the process:
