I sync Garmin to intervals.icu and then use their mcp server
basedrum··on A statement on the Tor Project's relationship with Mullvad
How does someone sensibly come to such a wild conclusion?
basedrum··on How I over-engineered my book
Where can I find the source for these? I'm currently over engineering my own book and you have done interesting ideas is love to reuse, without having to reimplement.
basedrum··on Pixel 11 Pro Fold
I've got a pixel 9, I don't see any meaningful changes here worth upgrading. The hardware looks essentially the same, except for a better camera and a ruby but if more battery. What am I missing?
basedrum··on llama.cpp
I have a framework 13, but I couldn't imagine running a local llm on it, how do you do it? Do you have a eGPU?

basedrum··on Nobody Pushed Back: Why Engineers Stay Silent Until It's Too Late
Engineers are conditioned to find problems, it's why we have the saying "don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good". It's paralysing. Often we raise problems outside of our lane, and that drives people nuts. This article is suggesting that we never raise issues, I've only ever seen the opposite, where we cannot keep our haranguing to ourselves and we fail to know when making a point makes sense or how to make our point and move on
basedrum··on My smart sleep mask broadcasts users' brainwaves to an open MQTT broker
Name the company, hiding it is irresponsible
basedrum··on Noam Chomsky's wife responds to Epstein controversy
He could have created this, and then Epstein decided not to launch it? It can exist without you and others knowing about it.
basedrum··on Noam Chomsky's wife responds to Epstein controversy
Just because you can't find it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Also just because you give it hard to imagine, does not mean that it didn't happen, or that people with better imaginations as you could accomplish that.
basedrum··on Noam Chomsky's wife responds to Epstein controversy
Why do you find it implausible that he got money to develop this challenge? I work in the non profit space and we get these kind of gifts all the time, with minimal strings attached or sometimes the deliverables don't see the light of day. 20k is actually small in my experience and they often come from random people who support our mission. Sure we do investigate and sometimes refuse based on findings, but we don't know or find everything. Taking money doesn't mean you know and support everything the person who have the money ever did, thought, said...
basedrum··on Claude Code's new hidden feature: Swarms
How is this different from GSD: https://github.com/glittercowboy/get-shit-done

basedrum··on Privacy doesn't mean anything anymore, anonymity does
Fun fact, mullvad browser is created by Tor in collaboration with them.
basedrum··on Privacy doesn't mean anything anymore, anonymity does
Look into the Apache module called mod-remove-IP, it's old and hasn't had any changes for years, but it works much better than just disabling in the logs because it will also persist those removals throughout any frameworks. Also with Apache you cannot as easily destroy your error logs which sometimes have IPS in them. Consider nginx as an alternative
basedrum··on Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Definitive Oral History of a TV Masterpiece
Meeeeemories... manos hands of fate, what an era
basedrum··on Obscuring P2P Nodes with Dandelion
The explanation for why Tor is different makes no sense. Instead of using a highly audited, 20 year proven, research backed protocol, let's invent something else? NIH syndrome
basedrum··on Making RSS More Fun
What is this? I can't find any information about the site
basedrum··on Microsoft won't let me pay a $24 bill, blocking thousands in Azure spending

Android please
basedrum··on How Secure is Tor? Not secure at all
Your assumptions are based on faulty understanding of how tor works.
basedrum··on How Secure is Tor? Not secure at all
Clickbait title is usually a good indicator of clickbait content.

I see in the comments that the author is an academic, my cursory look of the site makes me disappointed to see such weak rigor applied here. This looks like a hit piece dressed up to sound scary. Not going to waste my time further on its claims when on the surface its given me this impression. Strikes me as yelling and not listening type of personality.

basedrum··on Show HN: memEx, a personal knowledge base inspired by zettlekasten and org-mode
Would be interested to know how this compares to logseq etc
