@ajroach42 Ah, given the "small town" context, I was assuming an area where no makerspace would be readily available
@ajroach42 Public soldering table?
@scanlime So what they're saying is, we should express our discontent on the RPi forums?

"Excuse me," said the robot.
"How can I help?" the librarian asked.
"I have just been manufactured. My training includes everything I need to work, and to navigate society."
"That's nice."
"But..."
"Yes?
"Is there more?"
"Yes!"

@porsupah Do they have some indicator as to whether a given ebook will have DRM? For some reason, no mixed-inventory e-book seller seems to do this...
@SigmaOne@toot.party @prehensile@tech.lgbt For me it's like, there are certainly jobs that I'd like to do *sometimes*, but not full-time (or on any regular employment schedule really), and simulators can scratch that itch for me
@SigmaOne@toot.party @prehensile@tech.lgbt People are all like "but if we didn't force people to work for their money, nobody would do any work, nothing would get done"
And meanwhile vast swathes of people are playing Hard Work Simulator 2022 every weekend on their time off
@wmd@chaos.social Other: the security value in 2FA comes from having two isolated *environments* needing to be compromised, with each of them being at least nominally secured.
This is why "login on laptop with 2FA auth app on phone" is 2FA, but "login on phone with that same 2FA app" is not. And why a (safely designed) hardware key can make a good second factor (it's an isolated environment).
I hate the refrain of "something you know and something you have" so, *so* much. It's ambiguous, doesn't actually teach people *why* a second factor is secure, and it's at the root of so many wrong conclusions about 2FA...
@aeva Ohhh, I thought you meant a wood fireplace! I have no idea about the gas ones.
@aeva Is it an open fireplace? As those are generally not just very (indoors-)air-polluting but also not very efficient heat-wise, compared to closed wood burning thingems

@triton It appears that at least one instance admin was misled about the UFoI and has since cut ties: https://stop.voring.me/notes/98iy4aijak (but I don't know the details/context)

welcome to all those beginning to notice the strongly defended ties between (the computing) industry and agents of oppression
other folks came to a similar realization not that long ago when GitHub's ICE contracts became better known
the roots are even deeper than that. You can dig into some of that by reading or listening to, for example, Fred Turner here:
https://thedigradio.com/podcast/counterculture-to-cyberculture-with-fred-turner/
there's a lot more where that came from
It sure seems to me like it's doing an awful lot of detecting filament runout, for a unit which doesn't have filament runout detection
