Bandcamp knows what the people want

The safe temp value gave me a chuckle

Yes.

Only way is to secure your IoT devices/routers/cameras/etc.


Through personal responsibility? That is not scalable; look at how many compromised devices there are. We need a better solution as an industry.


Yep. Manufacturers / distributors should be held responsible. Aligning the incentives is half the battle.


A "do not connect to the cloud" physical flip switch on the IoT device is what I want. Where can I sign the petition for that?


A physical switch is extra BoM / cost, and doesn't make sense in the context of a networked device. Just make it LAN-first / LAN-only. Any Internet-enabled features should happen on the gateway, and be opt-in.


Yes, need to protect Azure from those evil manufacturers.


Azure AWS and cloudflare will survive, then everything else will pay them for protection; when all of the internet is captive, they will lobby for regulation to reduce the costs.

It would be better to get the regulation set up before stronger gatekeepers are created


"a better solution as an industry" = "corporate authoritarianism"

I'd rather these attacks continue, than they not exist at all, because the latter is only possible in a world without any freedom.


This is intensely ambitious.

I just kind of want to see what comes out of this.

RISC-V ftw and if they got lightweight, local-first AIs with a decent site-map of each program; that could be really unique and fun; if not annoying to use in practice.

I see the future they want so badly.


If you grew up with image boards in their heyday (pre-2004) then X could feel a bit nostalgic.

However the word filters (to suppress messages) does dampen it a bit.


I mean, is 4chan better than those image boards? or worse? how about 8chan


I wrote a 8-bit ripple adder when I was 16 one night; I thought about this idea then but it seemed like a massive undertaking.

With all the additional redstone items/capabilities however I could imagine most circuits could be more and more compact..

All in all, really cool


Income tax was supposed to end after we recovered from the Civil War anyhow, so it's, by any other definition applied to any corp or business, unjust theft (like autobilling someone after they paid off their loan).

So of course it doesn't work. Also plausible deniability, if you overpay, rarely will the gov give you back what you give them, and if they do, it's months afterwards.


if it auto saved to local storage then it would 100% be a daily use Markdown capable editor


That's an excellent suggestion — I'll make sure to add this feature.


Mumkey Jones will not be happy to hear this

learn to decompose is probably the most rage-baiting phrase I've heard in a long time. Breaking down a problem into smaller parts is not "decomposing"


It's not rage bait, it is an extremely well established term in CS.

> extremely well established term in CS

3 citations..

Studied CS in college, got my degree, went and worked for the last 8 years (in software) and i have never once heard decomposition used in anyway during my time in college and out until this very moment.
