For some reason It sounds like some obscure linux distro from the 90s

OpenStreetMap is the registered trademark of OSM Foundation, and they ask to please don't use mixed and confusing names like this for related projects. From the Trademark Policy:

You may not:

abbreviate the wordmarks, combine them with other words (“OpenStreetMapThing”), or substitute words in the mark (“OpenStreetThing” or “OpenThingMap”), especially where the new combination sounds similar to OpenStreetMap.

While they usually allow the use for open projects, it would be just easier to respect the request of the Foundation.

It's an interesting article, but how is this related to the community?

Those snakes seemed very sedated. A lot of animal abuse may be behind the scenes, they show the small room where the hyena lives, it doesn't look big enough for an animal of that size.

They announced joining Formula E in 2020, and the future of the hypercar category was not fully clear at that time, LMDh was announced also in 2020, I guess their Formula E deal was already settled before. In the late 2010s WEC didn't look very interesting. Porsche left it in 2017, the only factory team was Toyota in LMP1

I guess there is some, but not too much valuable content in spoken personal conversations. Current tech is not there yet, so it would be more costly in money and reputation to build some datacenters for this yet. If the money cost would go order of magnitudes lower they would wrap it in some marketing bullshit like "you can search in your all memories", lot of people would gladly allow it (iirc there was a black mirror episode about a device like this)

I think it won't happen tomorrow or in the near future, my point was they just reposted a 6 years old article without writing about a new and relelevant development in the topic.

An earlier version of this article was published in 2019.

While the content of the article is true, and I had to explain it to other people on the internet and irl multiple times in the last decade, the article doesn't write about the new TPU chips nowadays appearing in devices. With them full on-device STT will become more and more possible, so the tests mentioned in the article won't detect eavesdropping, as they won't need to send sound files to datacenters, only the transcript.

It would have been useful if they wrote about this new vector in the article, as TPUs were not that common in 2019.

The pin runs some android based software as the website mentions adb. You can build your own interposer, and they are selling the current official one on Etsy, in a 3d printed case. ~~It doesn't sound like something made in a factory. I guess it uses some off the shelf usb to jtag chip or similar.~~

The interposer files are in this repo: https://github.com/MaxMaeder/OpenPin

From the bom it seems it's just a micro usb to pogo pin converter, no chip mentioned, so the pin has an usb port, but pogo pin form...

Small and easy to wear form factor, monochrome laser projector are the two most interesting. Also a camera, microphone, a lot other sensors, packed in a tight case. If you build something DIY usually you can't make it this small.

GPL does not define how you should share it, just you have to share it some way.

I'm just emphasizeing, that they are following the license requirements, unlike some other manufacturers who doesn't even share they required to, anything else should be a plus and it's their decision.

I guess if the full stack would be foss they couldn't really sell CHR and other software only licenses anymore.

Routeros is based on linux, but afaik mikrotik only shares the source via email. A user set up an automation to send an email for new sources for each new routeros releases, and publishes the replies to this repo: https://github.com/tikoci/mikrotik-gpl

If you don't trust this repo you can also email mikrotik support and they should send you their kernel modifications. More info in this thread: https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=215585

This is not a well written arricle. They mixes up material design with corporate memphis, which is not necessarily related, they can exist independently.

Their actual problem with google's ux appears only in this paragraph:

The problem? Google’s actual UI & UX design is terrible. Whether mass-market or enterprise, web or mobile, its interfaces are chaotic and confusing. Every time I use Google Drive or the G Suite admin console, I feel lost. Neither experience nor intuition helps—I feel like an old man seeing a computer for the first time. I used Android for years (stock Android on a Nexus device), yet even after all that time, I struggled to distinguish buttons from plain text.

No examples, no reasoning, no good counter examples how it should be done, nothing. I'm not super familiar with google's web ux as I only use search and youtube ocasionally. They write here about android, but no android screenshots in the article. So is this about web ux only? Or anything google? The author couldn't even figure out what is their problem, this article sounds like "old man yells at cloud"

As per the linked FAQ,

What platforms will Sid Meier's Civilization VII be available on?

Sid Meier's Civilization VII will be available on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam (which also supports Mac and Linux) and the Epic Games Store.

The Steam store (preorder) listing shows all three platform icons so I’m guessing they’re not just talking about making it work with Proton.

No mention yet of Aspyr (who ported Civ 5 & 6) as far as I can see.
