The right to repair. It’s going to require the ability to make changes to the software on the vehicle. At a minimum the ability to replace the public encryption keys used to communicate with the servers. The bootloader and software is probably locked behind signing keys; so you need to be able to disable or add your own keys. I doubt anyone has access to the full protocols used to communicate with the servers. So, the full technical standard need to be released (which is never going to happen) or reversed engineered through unencrypted traffic analysis and reverse engineering the software.
A good right to repair law could require some of that be releasable while the company is still active or all if the company goes belly up. IIRC there was a smaller EV company that went bankrupt and there was a concern that once the servers were shutdown the vehicles would be bricked. Not sure what happened in the end. In any case, cars as IOT is the stupidest idea ever created.
Neat buuUUUuuut.
Does Revolt have federation?
As of right now, Revolt does not feature any federation and it is not in our feature roadmap.
[…]
What can I do with Revolt and how do I self-host?
[…]
You can self-host Revolt by:
- Using Docker Compose and our recommended guide.
- Building individual components yourself from the source code.
It’s basically a bunch of islands.
New D&D meme just dropped: Okay, boomer wizard.
I give it a 5/10. No mention of beans, unix socks, or tankies.
I don’t care if they are evil or incompetent or both. They’re decimating the federal workforce which will have long term consequences. Some of which will be fatal and not just for Americans.
Congress hasn’t passed a budget yet for the fiscal year, only a continuing resolution. The fiscal year started on Oct 1. So, Congress could include language that legalizes the buyout in the full budget, in theory*. There’s going to continue to be lawsuits against it before and after the budget becomes law. So, who knows what will happen in practice.
In any case, my take is anyone that took it will find that it won’t work out like they hoped. At a minimum they will have a stressful couple of months. At a maximum they will find that they screwed themselves.
*IANAL so apply appropriate skepticism to my Thursday evening quarterbacking.
I don’t know if I can give a straight answer. Agencies and their divisions, orgs, branches, teams have to do records management. There’s a federal law somewhere in the federal registrar. So a certain amount of historical knowledge is preserved. Where, how well, and how far back is a bunch of rabbits holes.
But what I think you might be getting at is tribal knowledge. Everything that’s passed around orally or by experience rather than being written down. There’s always that risk with people leaving and that knowledge going with them. But that impact can vary depending on agency practices, work culture, or even just the responsibilities of the person leaving.
The area I’m keeping an eye on are the people with decades of knowledge and experience that are also skilled enough to apply all that to their niche fields within an agency. They’re usually the ones in federal service for the long haul and are some of the more difficult people to get time with. If an agency is gutted and that living knowledge base is lost then the agency will struggle to fulfill the missions Congress has directed they must do as federal law.
Of the handful of people I know of, most were retiring anyway. They’re basically getting 7 months of paid leave. I wished one person a happy retirement last week and then “welcome back” this week. They’re working until the end of February.
Of the one person I know that isn’t eligible for retirement, they were planning on leaving anyway due to circumstances in their family.
What I’m interested in is how many of those people will be back by October as contractors. I’ve seen it before where someone retires and then a few months later they’re back working in a similar job. Just because someone leaves gov services doesn’t mean their skill sets aren’t in demand.
The people who voted for the authoritarian liar. They are equally shocked at the leopard knawing on their face.
Fukin hell, I’m in this meme. At least all my customers are engineers. So, less orcs that need slaying.
Reddit has also taken action to issue a subreddit entitled r/IsElonDeadYet - in which a user posted near-daily that Musk had not passed away - with a permanent ban.
This is what I like about decentralized systems. They treat censorship as damage and route around it. Case in point !iselonmuskdeadyet@lemmy.world
Line goes up - corpo social media must have done something stupid again.
Well this is interesting. Some background:

You wouldn’t happen to have some malware on your computer or logged into an account from a compromised computer?
IKR, this is the first time I’ve heard of someone running milk directly through freshly ground coffee beans.
I’m surprised Barrett was 1 of the 3 in the dissent.
Well, a piece of shit can become liquid shit, and liquid shit can become aerosolized. So, yes it’s possible for someone to be shittier than a piece of shit.
