Gabrys1··on California's new tire efficiency rules could save drivers $1B a year
the original tires on my 2016 mazda 6 I bought new from a dealer in California were quite bad. Dunlop something. Bad on wet, okay on dry, lasted for short time. Replaced them after 2 years if I recall correctly. I wonder if original tires are any better 10 years later...

I conducted a fun experiment.

Prompted an AI this:

It's year 2005, and you're an AI on an alien planet. you get a piece of news from the future from a planet called Earth. Tell me what you understand from the text and what you think about it: (then pasted the article text)

one can do one level of tabs using # fragments and :target selector if I recall correctly
Gabrys1··on Oracle cut its Always Free ARM limits to 2 OCPU / 12GB, enforced Aug 18
This reminded me that I tried to create the account on the Oracle Cloud and claim the free tier.

I tried a few times it always went to some sort of verification that after some time ended up in a rejection with no follow up process.

fun

It should be both, I think. Same goes for queuing in the restaurant. Waiting for the table for 5 minutes, then 5 minutes for the waiter, then 10 minutes for the drink, then 25 for the food is better than waiting for the table for 25 and then getting your full order in another 5.

Basically you have an irrational sense of progress even if things get delayed

Firefox (Nightly) on Android: tabs don't work: when clicking on a tab, the URL changes, there's a slight jump in content, but the new tab is not selected. Hope this helps

Even a version without AC charging (just solar + regen) with a smaller battery seems like a good deal

ah... thank you

I don't understand the font bit. This is a terminal script, it uses the font that your terminal uses?

This is so true. Sorry you got downvoted.

Gabrys1··on Oomwoo, an open-source robot vacuum you build yourself
yup, Xiaomi products are generally easy to repair. I've replaced a suction motor on a Roborock, built one working electric scooter out of two broken (in direct ways) ones. The firmware on the scooter is easily replaceable, the one in the vacuum makes it easy to install valetudo. If only more manufacturers were this way.

Gabrys1··on I Stored a Website in a Favicon
Have an index.html that's also (byte-to-byte equal) served as favicon.ico. If that page "works" and the favicon doesn't show garbage, it is a website stored in a favicon (by my standards).

Gabrys1··on GitHub Stacked PRs
You can push to GitHub using Sapling. I wish Sapling open source was given more love, as the experience for non-Facebookers is subpar. No bash completion outside the box, no distro packages, no good help pages, random issues interacting with a Git repo...

Gabrys1··on Rescuing old printers with an in-browser Linux VM bridged to WebUSB over USB/IP
> I must apologise that I haven’t so far open-sourced any part of this that I don’t have to. Mainly that’s because I think this would be an awesomely sticky web property for a printer consumables firm to integrate with their sales site. And I’d much prefer it if they paid me to white-label it for them, rather than just forking a repo and getting it all for free.

They might be interested if they cared at all about the ease of use of their printers

Gabrys1··on VitruvianOS – Desktop Linux Inspired by the BeOS
well, I mean, why can't this ship with an X server? Or maybe it does and then I'm not sure why it is said that only Haiku apps are supported

why no X11?

For my daily machine, I need Docker, terminal, Firefox (for private browsing), Chrome (for work), VS Code and/or JetBains IDE. If this can feel a bit like I remember BeOs felt, that'd be awesome

Gabrys1··on Cockpit is a web-based graphical interface for servers
I tried using this to handle my 10-ish Docker containers, but I ended up using Portainer. Sure, not the same thing, but if someone (like me) thought Cockpit might be nice for managing a small Docker host, this didn't work for me
