electricduck··on Tangled, a Git collaboration platform built on atproto
Since its just a regular ol' PDS, you can simply login to Bluesky and change it there!
electricduck··on Nostr is public key microblogging that works
I wouldn't say it "works" very well at all currently. With the large influx of users and the no moderation design is making it an insane target for spam now
electricduck··on Plasmo – A framework for building modern Chrome extensions
This should have really said "WebExtension extensions" instead of "Chrome extensions" as it's a standard across most modern browsers these days
electricduck··on New Japanese banknotes expected to break vending machines
Heh, this happened in the UK too when they introduced new shapes of coins for already-existing currency. Just like the UK, Japan businesses have been forewarned for some time and this is mostly clickbait nonsense.
electricduck··on Was Y Combinator worth it?
You know, I've been reading Hacker News for god-knows-how-long, and it never occurred to me to look up what Y Combinator even was.
electricduck··on ‘X’ logo installed atop Twitter building, SF to investigate permit violation
Did... did he not learn from a week ago when they failed to remove the Twitter logo?
electricduck··on By 2028 there must be fast chargers every 60 km on the EU’s key motorways
Those do exist and there's plenty of them: it's known as "co-charging". There's even one literally called ChargeBnB.
electricduck··on Linux has achieved a 3% desktop market share
I'm kinda surprised this entirely forgot to mention the SteamDeck. I'd love to know how much of an impact that had, considering apparently 3 million units have been sold (according to Valve). Alas, how many of those users know they are running Linux is another question.
