Mashimo··on Americans' social activity has steeply declined in the past 30 years
> , none of those would quite fit the definition of "friends".

Why can't the big group of acquaintances not lead to real friendship?

I would haver guesst that's the way you find friends. Stranger -> acquaintances -> friends -> close friends?

Mashimo··on OpenCode 2.0
What do you mean there is some kind of throttling?
Mashimo··on Tiny Little Office
The word processor is buggy. When switching between touch typing and swiping the cursor ends up in the middle of words.

It's estimated requests based on average usage just to give you a better idea.

For some models your 10 Usd sub will get you 60 Usd worth of tokens per month.

But you can use any sub from other providers if you want. You can just log in with openai account and use chatgpt models.

Mashimo··on Amazon pushes up prices across the Internet
VAT should be done by AliExpress now, at least that is how I understood it.

Sadly it's only limited items, but you can also filter for just items that they have in their EU warehouse.

I recently bought some stuff (Ps2 controller etc) and it was still cheaper including shipping and duty then to order it in EU. Package was checked by customs.

Mashimo··on Amazon pushes up prices across the Internet
Could you sell a box of 10x Item A on amazon, and a box of 15x Item A on your own website for cheaper per unit? Without triggering the amazon Fair Pricing Policy?
Mashimo··on Apple's new 'Switch to Safari' campaign details why you should ditch Chrome
But how does ublock origin lite, the v3 version, blocks adverts on youtube just fine?
Mashimo··on Denmark set to allow return of 'physical force' in school
Yes, I read it, I was just quoting from "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels"

    Eddie: Oh, and if Tom or anyone else for that matter feels like givin' them a bit of a kickin', I'm sure it won't do any harm.
    Soap: Yeah, little bit of pain never hurt anybody. If you know what I mean. Also, I think knives are a good idea. Big, ****-off shiny ones. Ones that look like they could skin a crocodile. Knives are good, because they don't make any noise, and the less noise they make, the more likely we are to use them. Shit 'em right up. Makes it look like we're serious. Guns for show, knives for a pro.
    Tom: Soap, is there something we should know about you?
    Bacon: I'm not sure what's more worrying. The job or your past.
What is "TFA" though?
Mashimo··on Citroen revives the 2CV for an electric age
2CV and ID Polo would do that for me. There is a market for it.
Mashimo··on Citroen revives the 2CV for an electric age
Miata!
Mashimo··on Citroen revives the 2CV for an electric age
Why does it need the same qualities as the old car?

People want cheap and small electric city cars, why not make it in the style of an iconic car? We already have plenty of mid sized cars that look all the same.

> The Chinese BYD Seagull is a real car for $10,000 which is quite large to boot.

I think the Seagull cost ~20 000 to 22 000 EUR in a lot of European countries. Who knows what the Citroen 2CV will cost in china.

Mashimo··on Bitwarden Dual License Model

From a quick look, that seems to be Desktop only.

Mashimo··on `123456' password used in Danish CPR data breach
I'm not super familiar with SSN in US of A, but I think the Danish one is not has secret. Don't get me wrong, the leak is not good, but there is a limit to what you can do with it.

Targeted and real looking spam mails come to mind. Hey <NAME> with <Address> and <CPR>, you have to log in <fake government website> to verify X Y Z.

Apparently some pay day loans or similar with just CPR + name is or was a thing. But lets hope that will change now. Bonkers as CPR should be be treaded as a secret.

Mashimo··on Tell HN: GitHub refuses to remove cracked copies of my software after a month
I can post the link, but OP does not want to, so I decided to follow his request.
Mashimo··on Tell HN: GitHub refuses to remove cracked copies of my software after a month
I just searched "github Photopea-offline" and found one within the first 2 results. Uses "Photopea" name and logo.

No.

> Also, how small is "smallers models?"

Just click the link?

It's LFM2.5-230M

Mashimo··on Penguin Mail – open-source Rust email client for Linux with AI
Because "Find me that mail from last year from Peter or Pat? that I never replied to" is easier for most people then setting a bunch of filters and regex.

Quick grammar correction can also be nice. Not super important, but nice.

Mashimo··on Denmark data breach exposes 8.8M people's personal data
Yes, and then it was found to be against the law. So now it goes back and fourth on what is owned to the mink farmers.
Mashimo··on Denmark data breach exposes 8.8M people's personal data
Yeah, I believe you.

But it's still worse in a lot of other countries.

Mashimo··on Gitframes
Oh, brilliant. I can do source control by just sending .diff file via email to my colleges...

No but to be serious, I don't know how well this works but it CLEARLY targets people who want motion graphic animation / keyframe stuff, that you normally would do with AE. If you just want to cut a few clips it's not even targeting you. No reason to get all upset about it.

> Where's your source to back up this claim?

Feel. Having lived in Denmark and Germany. And working for the public sector.

MitID is just chefs kiss how many other countries can you log in to your bank, student loan, and local municipality with the same sso. Country wide app for local transportation tickets of different types. EPJ / Elektronisk Patient Journal has it's fault, but compared to other countries[2] yet again not that bad.

Shit man, even something simple has going to the doctor for blood tests. I think you can get the results on the same day via app. Maybe next day. In Germany[1] you have to wait a few days, then the Dr. calls you with the results and then you can ask him if he can mail it to you.

What in Denmark actually requires you to get physically to the municipality? Weddings? Even divorces work online. Compare that to Germany, Austria, Italy etc.

Why do you think Denmark is not one of the leading countries in digitalization?

    [1] Probably dependens on location / Bundesland.
    [2] https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elektronische_Patientenakte_(Deutschland)
Edit: Just looked at some real benchmarks. One from EU where they put DK at 7th out of EU27 https://composite-indicators.jrc.ec.europa.eu/explorer/indic... And one UN E-Government Survey from 2024 where they rank first. https://publicadministration.un.org/egovkb/en-us/Reports/UN-... (I just looked at an overview)

I can't say how accurate these lists are. But they match my observations. Nordics lead.

Or how there still are over 200 people working fulltime on the corona mink .. "event"

That said, compared to other countries the tax / SKAT is also quite decent.

Mashimo··on Denmark data breach exposes 8.8M people's personal data
Mhh, I don't know. In Germany they proudly proclaimed their BAföG / Student loans (SU in Denmark) is now digital. But what was digital was just the client side, on the government agency side they still would print out the applications. And because they where used to people sending in paper, they had to hire more people to help with the printing. AHHHHH. That is the state of German digitalisation.

There are things I wish I could change in Denmark, mainly the power sockets and number system (Base 20 what the heck?) but Denmark is on a good course when it comes to IT understanding. Both the broader society and government implementations.

Yes yes, Estonia is better. But Denmark is still doing good.

Mashimo··on Sales of sub-€25,000 electric car models set to rise sevenfold
I think it's a max, not a minimum.

You just have to wait 2 years to get an ID.Polo :P
Mashimo··on Denmark data breach exposes 8.8M people's personal data
You can just apply for protected address. I did that once, because I did not want that my .dk domains whois would show my name and address.

I managed to get protected address, it's just to log in somewhere and request it. I can't remember the details, but it made for example banking _slightly_ more annoying. They would call me so they can send me a letter. Also makes it harder for people who know your name to look up your address.

Never managed to get my name removed from my domain whois and at some point removed protected address again. In theory, if I share one of my other .com domains on the internet, an attacker could reverse DNS the IP, find my DK domain and thus get my full name and address.

I don't think this is AI related at all. What makes you say that?
