"Today’s AI, she adds, “is dependent on all of the free-to-the-commons labor, billions of hours that are now being concentrated in the hands of a handful of companies that then get to launder that as ‘intelligence’ in ways that are further cementing information and power asymmetries.”

> If this letter is indeed about E-meters, the only electronic device Scientology is readily connected to, then Author Services may be concerned about how the Church of Scientology's reputation could be impacted if E-Meters are dissected.

The request is like so many other anti-Right to Repair arguments: Manufacturers are afraid that access to repair materials will expose some of their other dirty secrets," Chamberlain said.

Exactly… if they had nothing to hide, the devices would be already.

Requiring special training is not an impediment for a hardware device to be an "open" design… valve amateur radio amplifier or transmitter will readily kill you if you touch the wrong part, but lots of home-brew designs exist.

Secrecy exists because they've got something to hide.

Ten years ago, a tech-savvy group of people with type 1 ( ) decided to pursue a approach to their own treatment.

A few years back I was a stage manager at and someone from this group gave a talk about this on my stage.
I'm glad to see it is still ongoing.

The MNT Pocket Reform open, modular mini-laptop is now expected to ship in early 2024 following a successful crowdfunding campaign (this is a 2 month delay due to processor lead times). Case design has also been updated, and there's now a 3.5mm audio jack. crowdsupply.com/mnt/pocket-ref

"It’s like Tor and IPFS had sex and produced this thing"

Die veilid Bibliothek (gesprochen: vay-lid; eine e2ee, p2p, mesh, TOR, IPFS Bibliothek) versucht Verschlüsselung mit Überwachungsschutz zu verbinden und für Apps zur Verfügung zu stellen. Es bleibt spannend!! 😋

Vu que Prusia souhaite arrêter de faire du logiciel libre et du open hardware, y a-t-il une imprimante 3D réellement sous licence libre (hardware et software) que vous conseillez ?

"Es ist offiziell: Die Photovoltaik ist die günstigste Stromquelle der Welt. Das verkündetet die Internationale Energieagentur (IEA)"

"An sonnigen Tagen deckt die PV in Deutschland zeitweise über zwei Drittel unseres Strombedarfs. Damit ist Deutschland inzwischen Europas größter PV-Markt."

"Die Preise sind in den letzten Jahren radikal gesunken. Allein zwischen 2010 und 2020 um 90 Prozent."

After all these years and recent new like the or this litte embedded powered device is still the winner in comparison for me. Battery lasts more than twice as the other two, lighter, better to type on, faster in terms of real world usage b/c of bloated linux these days...
Thanks a lot @DragonBox for the awesome !
