#USPolitics

Two things that most Americans support:

#1 https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-joint-resolution/54

It's only 3 paragraphs, but the TLDR is to reduce the amount of money in politics and limit the rights that corporations have.

#2: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/right-to-repair-reform-section-1201-of-the-dmca

Fix the DMCA so that it is once again legal to repair (and use) things you own, even if they have a "digital lock".

Most relatable thing I've seen an AI say so far, to be honest.

@Techaltar @dalan Following up on the "scroll past on #youtube to watch on #nebula" topic - I'd love to see a browser extension/ #revanced patch/etc. that automatically marked videos watched on YT, and maybe even gave them a thumbs up.

It could be either when I watch the same video on nebula, or simpler, just as soon as the video appears on the YT channel/playlist (on the assumption I will watch it on nebula).

I want to both support the creator and train YT to recommend more like it to me.

The "no, fuck you!" bit set, with bits for every security screw I've ever seen and a few I haven't!

Guess what happens when you ship a brand new computer monitor in the same box as a bag of dog food?

I'm loving the specs on this $55 tablet:
https://www.staples.com/linsay-7-tablet-with-holder-and-pen-wifi-2gb-ram-32gb-storage-android-12-black-f7uhdp/product_24479012

* Processor Speed (Ghz): 7.5
* Tablet Processor: 1 to 2.9 lbs.
* Tablet RAM: 1
* Operating Platform: High Resolution 1280x800 IPS Screen
* Tablet Use: 1024 x 600
* Depth in Inches: Yes
* Tablet Weight: 1.2GHz quad-core
* Weight (lbs.): 2GB
* Tablet Resolution: Kids
* ...and more!

It's as if they wrote down (mostly) correct specs and then put them in a blender!

Wow, using a Raspberry Pi with an SSD feels so much faster! This beats some "real" computers I've used! It boots up in no time, the browser opens nearly instantly, software installs zip by, etc. I'm impressed!

(Also, I think this tiny little 2230 SSD adapter I found on eBay is super cute :)

I just lost $0.03 selling on ebay. Ebay charged me a $1.02 fee on an item that sold for $0.99.

The buyer paid $5.40 ($0.99 for the item + $3.96 shipping + $0.45 tax). Ebay used to increase the shipping price to account for their fees, but stopped doing this recently, leading to situations like this on low-cost items.

(Note: the screenshot shows $4.95, which excludes the tax. However, ebay's fee is based on the total amount including tax.)

I set up my wife's record player the other day and noticed her speakers also had an optical input. So today I connected a Raspberry Pi with shairport-sync for Airplay from her iPhone and headless Plexamp for my music.

Now we can both play music from our phones without having to fuss about with bluetooth! Very happy with how it turned out!
