These rules are convoluted and near impossible to apply. Specific braking speeds for some objects compared to others? That requires reliable computer vision, which hasn’t been demonstrated anywhere yet.

And those speeds? 92mph is 148kph! Why the fuck are cars even permitted to be capable of that when no road in the country allows it? And why would you want to introduce unpredictable braking scenarios at such speeds?

What is feasible is a speed limiter based on the posted limit, but that’d be too practical.

Thanks for posting this! I have the same router.

I love this. I can just imagine them paying poor people to drive and protest in their place too.

I’m not saying that she’s blameless, rather that a design of straight roads and traffic lights ensured that this was going to happen. If it wasn’t an old lady speeding, it would have been a dumb teen on their phone, or a middle-aged man “trying to catch the yellow”. If the road allows for dangerous driving, kids are going to die on it.

Congratulations, you’ve put an old woman behind bars. Who wants to bet that they haven’t fixed the street design in the last 4 years to actually prevent this from happening again? Are we to assume that prison is a deterrent here?

I mean, sure, she killed two kids, she should go to jail, but any street design that would permit the sort of driving that makes killing those kids accidentally is more at fault than the unlucky idiot behind the wheel.

A lot of places don’t have buses and the roads aren’t safe for kids to cycle anymore. The assumption is that if you’re a parent, you just have to “make time” some-crazy-how.

We don’t use X, and we don’t use Facebook, and I’m not even close to feeling sorry."

Love it. Subscribed!

This might be fun to write actually. Basically you need a central server you connect to via a websocket that would plot points out on a map (maybe with leaflet?) on receipt of notifications pushed via said socket.

The trouble of course is that with a central server, you tend to incur costs, so you’d have to pay, unless some sort of P2P mesh could be established between participating parties. That’d be a fun problem to solve for sure.

This line of reasoning is broadly underrated. Sure batteries are a thing, but if a liveable world means regular brown outs, I’m cool with it. The alternative after all is so much worse.

Very cool trick. I’ve never been comfortable with how Python package installation is effectively arbitrary code execution. It’s also a nice reminder that installing packages into a Docker environment is generally safer than going bare back metal.

Very slick. It looks like a thin wrapper around some pretty powerful tools, and I’m impressed that they’re still useful on such a low-power device.

I wrote an assistant a while back before Whisper was a thing, but now that I see what you’ve done, I’m going to have to go back and refactor.

I don’t understand. Surely if you’ve got a limited amount of water in the lake, drawing that water from a shallow well reduces the available water by the same amount as it would from the lake itself?

That was lovely, thank you!

I rather like the FSFe for general Free software stuff, but you may find nicer-looking stuff if you visit merch store for specific projects, like GNOME, KDE, etc.

You might want to consider just Dockerising everything. That way, the underlying OS really doesn’t matter to the applications running.

I’ve got a few Raspberry Pi’s running Debian, and on top of that, they’re running a kubernetes cluster with K3s. I host a bunch of different services, all in their own containers (effectively their own OS) and I don’t have to care. If I want to change the underlying OS, the containers don’t know either. It’s pretty great.

Revealjs is a pretty great replacement for PowerPoint, but it does require rudimentary HTML skills.
