  • Kind of

    They've had several address resolution centers around the country, where reviewers look at mail and figure out it's address. They don't physically handle the mail, it's an image on a screen.

    Iirc they've been doing it this way since the 70s

  • Scam Altman says a lot of things. He also molests his sister

  • Mattermost say they will not clarify what license the project is under

    Jump

  • It would have. Roundcube existed at roughly the same time, had a better UI, and was clearly licensed, and still went nowhere

  • Proton's predictions for the internet, 2025 reviewed and 2026 projections

    Jump

  • Wish proton would focus on fixing some of the issues with their mail system in 2026. The fact that some issues have been open for years, with no movement, while they launch crap like an AI assistant, is disappointing

  • After I beat it, I was sad that it was over. One of the most engaging little games I've played in a long time

    It and atomfall were amazing

  • Google’s Sundar Pichai says the job of CEO is one of the ‘easier things’ AI could soon replace

  • Something that consistently makes bad choices with little more than random probability? You don't say

  • While we eagerly await the second coming of Steam Machines, it's worth remembering what a gloriously awful mess Valve got itself in over a decade ago

    Jump

  • I kind of wish they'd called em steam engines

  • Amazon is making it impossible to remove the DRM from Kindle Books

    Jump

  • I built a 3D printed ereader stand that has a RAM mount ball on the other side.

    Right now it's sitting atop a manfrotto monopod between my bed and side table. Eventually want to mount it on the wall, but the monopod has worked well enough I don't see too much need to change things up.

    With a cheap Bluetooth tiktok ring remote bought online, I've had a very enjoyable reading experience in bed, and if I drift off there's no worry about the device

  • Boox's Neoreader is surprisingly good, but KoReader just frog blasts it. And since it's just and Android app, it's trivial to install and keep updated

  • Free cellular for life, except Amazon has basically limited it down to nothing

    I loved my oasis, but the whispersync was, for all intents, busted, for the last few years.

    Finally moved to a boox go color, installed calibre, and couldn't be happier

  • Check out standard ebooks. They take public domain books and "clean" them up with really good typesetting, spelling fixes, and other things. All free too

  • Boox Go 7 Color II

    Install KoReader on it (it runs Android so it's literally just installing a new app) and you've got the best reading experience out there

  • If you can swing it. I really like bun for more traditional node stuff, because it has a ton of goodies built in, like a bundler

  • Tesla FSD turns off more U.S. consumers than it attracts, survey finds

    Jump

  • I only recently found out that FSD treats you like a poorly behaved toddler, with its stupid strike system. For those who are unaware, if the car doesn't think you're holding on to the steering wheel and paying attention to the road, it gives you a strike. Once you have one strike, you can't use FSD for the duration of that drive. Once you get three strikes, it's disabled for an indeterminate time period, typically a week, but you can find reports of drivers being locked out for a year or longer. Keep in mind, this is a feature you have to pay extra money for, on a subscription basis

    My Subaru doesn't give a shit if I accidentally let go of the steering wheel on a drive with its its lane keep assist system enabled, it just beeps at me with increasing urgency, while still doing its job
