  • Every car you’ve ever seen on the road is electric and has digital components. Electric vehicles just use a direct drive motor powered by a battery instead of powered by gas combustion. Your 2026 lifted F250 is just as digital as your 2012 used Nissan Leaf.

    The killswitches in question would apply to all new vehicles, not just electric ones. The US version of the law makes no provisions for remote shutdown, only for something akin to a passive breathalyzer. “Obviously once that’s in place it can be used to manufacture car accidents” your brain is conspiracy poisoned and you’re listening to talking points from the likes of Ron Desantis. Please take a break from the internet and go enjoy your local park.










  • Holy moralizing and bad faith presentation from that takedown you linked. I feel like you have to be primed to dislike the guy going in to take that thing seriously. By the end of the essay they were straight up lying about DeVault saying he “bans projects he personally dislikes” which is obviously not what happened to those who read the linked SourceHut TOS change.

    Almost the entirety of that takedown is “this guy likes drawn loli art oooooo how DISGUSTING how REVOLTING we just HATED meticulously cataloguing every image he tagged on a booru site but we HAD to look at all this loli porn that we HATE so we could put this dossier together.” I stg these people are all closeted enjoyers of the stuff they run moral crusades against.

    Also hilarious that the anonymous author complains about DeVault writing an anonymous report on someone else as a point of contention in their anonymous report on DeVault. These people are so unserious.




  • Recently switched to ucore. While I cannot for the life of me get SELinux to let my containers run without Permissive mode (my server was previously Endeavour OS and either didn’t have it or I disabled it long ago), I’ve otherwise had great success.

    The config is a single yaml file that gets converted into a json file for Ignition, which sets everything up on first boot. It’s an OCI-based immutable distro with automatic updating, so I can mostly just leave it to its own devices and everything has been smooth for the first week I’ve been using it.

    My Docker root directory is on a separate drive with plenty of space, so setting up involves directing Docker to that new root directory and basically being done (which my Ignition config handles for me).
