Which app?

Big adult size tricycles with a cargo basket or saddle bags. I’ve seen them used in big factories/plants for maintenance crews.

Something breaks and the maint guy hops on, loads up his toolbox and cycles out across the plant to go fix it.

Unfortunately not all goods are going to the same places. Nor are all goods moving at the same pace. Freight trains are a great piece of logistics infrastructure, but they can't just be US logistics infrastructure.

The US rail system is very well established and has been well built out since before the rise of the automobile. But goods need to get from the rail depot to the end destination and right now the best we have is enormous 18-wheelers and as long as those are on the road, it's too dangerous for me to want to take a smaller car

What about trucking and shipping? The US - where this study took place- is huge, and most of it is very far from ports. 18 wheelers/semis are the biggest users of the American highway system and are necessary to get goods to/from production and consumption sites

These trucks also contribute to the rise in vehicle size. I did not like driving when I was in a sedan sized car sharing the high speed highways hours from cities on those highways

“ Even if every individual person on the planet reduced their discretionary carbon footprint to zero, the electrical, industrial and agricultural systems of our economies would continue to emit greenhouse gases and make global heating worse”

So we don’t need to talk about individual’s footprints?

I remember early twitter thinking RT was some guys initials and was so impressed at how popular and cool he was. Everyone was tweeting him and he seemed to be everywhere

Then I learned what it meant.

Never meet your heroes

Not VR, but I’ve been wanting one of these too. Pokémon Go flirted with it with steps and egg hatching but I want a classic fantasy MMORPG where my workout is the grind and then the play part is all fun

I know the feeling. I think your best bet would be sharing with her gently and honestly, and if that doesn't go like you hope then looking into some couples' counseling/therapy to resolve this if she's agreeable.

Family baggage is tough and there may be stuff she needs to work on within herself too before she's ready. Encouraging that is a good way to be supportive and work towards the goal of kids together.

Strongly advise against ultimatums

Yes please! I miss real buttons and the tiny blackberry form factor so much

the 24 hour clocks I've seen usually are set up like this so daytime is the top half and night time the bottom - as though the tip of the hour hand was the sun

Here's the nonprofit mentioned in the article. I like hopeful people like David Vaughan

highly recommend Noble Blood podcast if you like this kind of stuff. totally changed my views on history. the narrator does a great job of showing that people are, and always have been, people - noble or not. part of the reason so many nobles died in the past is that people then didn't know what to do with ex-nobles either

It would keep bad guys from being able to send commands to the ICS devices without authenticating to them first. Or if they’re trying to hijack the engineering workstations within the OT system it would prevent them from using th epic, the programming software to make the changes, or from communicating at all with the industrial endpoints

It’s not just the networks, it’s the devices themselves. There’s no concept of security with any of the older OT hardware. They’re basically appliances designed for a “trusted” network where all users are there to do the right thing.

It’s almost a battlestar galactica kind of thing where we need these big systems but it’s really risky to have them fully networked and online

Fun fact - the original picture at the top of the article was the Allen-Bradley PLC-5/80, but the toolkit focused on Omron and Schneider and Codesys systems.

I’ll bet someone at Wired got a phone call from AB’s lawyers

This is going to be our reality for the next few decades as threat actors focus on new ways to wreak havoc or extract ransom from mid- and small-scale critical infrastructures (I.e., regional water plants, that one factory that keeps the whole town running, power grids, refineries, etc)

This digital transformation/ IT-OT Convergence needs to happen, but it’ll be a bumpy ride

Edit - I say mid and small scale users because the big ones will have the funding to properly secure themselves for the most part. Sure, we’ll see them get hit too but the smaller players I worry about most

What is her beef against landlords? Or homeownership?

Why does she not consider managing investments work?

> What about the, say 19 percent of Americans in the upper-class income tier, who will defend their right to be landlords, to increase their unearned wealth through their investments?

What line of work are you in where you’re using this tool regularly? Curious to know

Beautiful. I love it! Dark mode is beautiful. So very well done. This went right to the top of my bookmark list.

Only constructive feedback would be if it can better fill a normal 16:9 desktop monitor - it looks optimized for mobile, which is great - but it's too small and narrow for keeping open on the PC

If you like MLB - this reminds me of Playball which runs in the terminal.

It immediately reminded me of http://68k.news/

Warning about HTTP; no HTTPS if you're concerned about that sort of thing.

I guess that’s what I’m getting at. Like this is for work, my company has dictated that we do SSO into the desktop app. I was wondering if there was something I was missing besides the browser version.

But for personal use- totally makes sense

What’s the alternative? Not run software? Run it all in the browser? FOSS only?

Also check out atompunk, which is a jetsons-esque atomic powered future. The Fallout video game series is a great presentation of cool atompunk tech/aesthetic

Why can’t art be mass produced?

Have a blog or updates or anything for the game? I love me a good monster battle rpg

What ever happened to the smarterchild bot? I remember being amazed as a kid that it was a robot on AIM that would reply just like a person. I don't remember it being dumb like modern "AI" chatbots, but it would play coy if it didn't know the answer in a reasonable way. I feel like we've regressed from there.

RIP old buddy. I hope you didn't save our chat logs from that era because man that would be cringey to look at now

absolutely the case. i'm new to Linux and wasn't around in the good old terminal only days - the abbreviations are arcane

why is ch change directory but chmod is change mode? why not cm? or chd?

i had to look this one up because the only explanation i was given for the name of the command dd was 'disk destroyer'. had to go into some old forum to learn that cc was already taken for make and so they just went to the next letter down the line??

it's buck wild in there. i like it, but i've taken to just treating some commands like magic spells because the commands are so impenetrable

every other week release for the podcast, not weekly*

Darknet Diaries is so good. To anyone who hasn't listened, highly recommend. Jack hits a homerun each week and the story about JSR and NSO was buck wild
