Gotta see one of these with parking.
Maybe not new, but probably some refurbished ones out there.
Though, I was in Bogota and at a Panamericana store selling new computers I was surprised how many of them were sporting Windows 10 stickers. Didn't look close enough at the CPUs though.
OEMs blowing dust from the processor stock cupboard, beware

I didn't make this I just wanted to share here before I add it to my weekly urbanism roundup newsletter https://urbanismnow.com/
On escaping the narrow confines of one’s own polity
I didn't know a better community to post it but I liked the way the author talks about solidarity for social movements in general.
If you really wanna get started with your own domain I highly recommend just getting https://purelymail.com/ setup for the hosting provider. It's going to be way cheaper than just about anything and you pay for what you use. I've been on it for a few years and never had a problem.
What solution would you propose? I assume the main problem is that it supposedly limits Wikipedia's ability to ban people that would otherwise just make another account? Maybe they could limit VPN editing to accounts with 500 edits or whatever.
In any case now seems like a great time to prod them to reconsider this policy.

Need someone to make an overlaid side by side comparison.
What's wrong with android? I have bitwarden setup any basically any time I tap a password field it offers me to fill in from my vault.
I'm not sure but there is an open letter that you could sign that could have some hints https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40986638
If your laptop supports esim you can checkout https://esimdb.com/ which as a pretty comprehensive list. Most of these are prepaid for X months and you get Y GB of data. So could fit what you need.
What is your use case for navigating? I feel like if I'm in a new place OrganicMaps isn't so great for discovering POI. But if I'm in a place I already know decently it's pretty rare I need navigation anyway. I'd like to use OrganicMaps more though :)
Seems like a nice option to have! FFsend is my go to https://github.com/timvisee/ffsend

Writing Wikipedia articles about topics I'm interested in. Great way to learn more and share it with others.
Huh. I saw cashback many years ago on tv or something but could never figure out the name even after a lot of googling. And here we are I've finally found it thanks to you. Maybe I'll give it another watch. For a long time I've thought about the thing of not looking at the clock when doing unpleasant activities. Thanks!
Woohoo! I think the fix for iOS audiobooks that I helped (well asked enough questions that someone else then fixed quickly) bring into the world! https://blog.rayberger.org/fixing-jellyfin-ios-audiobook-streaming
What do you mean it doesn't support repeated tasks? I have bunch of monthly tasks that show up once per month.
Thanks these are definitely a step in the direction of what I'm looking for!
However, I'm more interested in the GitHub specific stuff like comments on issues and pull requests opened and labels changed. That sort of thing to see what is being worked on.
Looks nice but I wish the clipboard history could be based on number of items and not just time.
Appreciate the kind words :)
Heck that I love to see it! How was it getting into the code base for the first time?
The little fix I contributed to is on there :) https://blog.rayberger.org/fixing-jellyfin-ios-audiobook-streaming
