captainastronaut@seattlelunarsociety.orgto Technology@lemmy.world•The Epochalypse: It’s Y2K, But 38 Years LaterEnglish5·5 days agoYeah it only felt like it wasn’t a big deal because it became a big deal early enough for there to be plans made. And because good people doing hard work to prevent a problem wasn’t newsworthy after the fact.

Is Said to Draft a Plan to End Its Ability to Fight Climate ChangeEnglish2·5 days agoI really don’t get the point of being a billionaire in a world that is falling apart. How do they not see it affects them too?

captainastronaut@seattlelunarsociety.orgto Technology@lemmy.world•We're Not Innovating, We’re Just Forgetting SlowerEnglish2·13 days agoAgreed it definitely depends on what you buy. I inherited a stereo amp from my uncle who always buys really nice gear. I have had it repaired or been able to repair it anytime a component failed and it is now 30 years old. But it was built to last that long not to be disposed of in five.
Right to repair is not just for nerds and tinkerers. We all deserve repairable products.
captainastronaut@seattlelunarsociety.orgto Technology@lemmy.world•A lawsuit against Tesla and its driver-assistance technology goes to trial in FloridaEnglish5·13 days agoAnytime I get one as an Uber I try to play stupid like I can’t figure out the door handles. Slam the doors, pull the emergency door release (if there is one), push against the motorized door close mechanism. Ask if there’s a shade for the glass roof. Anything to remind the driver that it’s not a good car, especially as a taxi.

Very low and yes. They work great for IoT, as long as it’s not mission critical stuff as messages can get dropped or arrive out of order sometimes. But for something like monitoring a remote sensor station that’s within the Lora range, without needing a cellular plan, yes.
