  Christopher Borroni-Bird is widely credited as the inventor of the "electric skateboard" EV design.

  @berber@chaos.social With reggae, I've always loved the "dub version" where you hear the same track with only the beats. Sadly, we lost dub great Robbie Shakespeare a few years ago, and Sly Dunbar just last month. There's a decent chance that they're playing on any reggae favorite track.

  @JulianOliver@mastodon.social We shouldn't forget intermediates between self-hosting and megacorps. Mastodon is an obvious example: I'm not hosting this instance. (Thanks @Larvitz@burningboard.net ). signalapp@mastodon.world is run by a non-profit foundation. @nextcloud@mastodon.xyz comes quickly to mind. It's for-profit, but it has user-friendly principles. A similar description applies to @openstreetmap@en.osm.town and Bandcamp.

  @corbet@social.kernel.org Not everyone has access to a large pool of IPv4 addresses. Perhaps the new scrapers are therefore just different entities?

  Fellow cyclists, have a look at these helmet safety-test results: https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu/bicycle-helmet-ratings.html Some well-known brands like Giro and Bell have disappointing results. I found the info through https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.z8curin

  @llvm@fosstodon.org H2 makes a lot more sense for big trucks. Consider that most tractor-trailers accumulate their miles almost entirely on interstates. Many companies rack up a large share of their driving between their own facilities, e.g. FedEx from their airport facilities to their warehouses. In these cases, companies can host their own H2 infrastructure, or a smattering of H2 facilities at truckstops can serve a large fraction of trips. Why bother? Because truck tractors are too e...

I had not heard before of @404mediaco@mastodon.social but will definitely check them out. At about 8 minutes in, @RebelbotJen@infosec.exchange suggests the ingenious idea of using spare processor cycles to crowd-source spamming of LLMs. Perhaps "Prompt-Injection@Home"
