  • I really never understand why right wing governments without exception choose to not only hinder, but actively remove green energy. Like, I get hindering it because they are all owned by fossil fuel oligarchs, but actually spending taxpayer money to dismantle it makes no sense whatsoever. It is already there, just ignore it??? There is literally no downside to just ignoring it. If the right shut the fuck up about green energy and just went with it, they could solve half of their impending “immigrant problem” and could focus effort on fucking up and making other parts of the country worse like they want… Plus if climate change ends up not being “a hoax” 🙄, then they get to continue being parasites instead of their nationalism and identity falling apart as the world does.






  • Racism is not fascism. Imperialism is not fascism. Nationalism isn’t facism. They are characteristics that sometimes or often lead to facism. Facism has a fairly explicit definition. Things can be a part of each other and overlap each other without being each other.

    If I make a snowman, that doesn’t mean that the carrot is a snowman or every snow sphere is a snowman. You can say that when you see me laying out the carrot with 3 balls of snow and a hat, it is leading to a snowman, but it has not always been a snowman.

    But yes, facism is a huge danger and on the rise all over the world. Not even just in white western countries either.



  • Sorry, I misunderstood what you are trying to do here. I thought you were trying to use the Atom Echo itself as a media player. Disregard that arduino library comment, it isn’t relevant. I just watched the video since I couldn’t earlier.

    Indeed what you are doing should work. Are you certain that the upload was successful? With GPIO21 set as the speaker output, the speaker data should absolutely not work. The fact that it does means that somewhere along the line, the GPIO22 is set as the speaker output.




  • It doesn’t request location access, it doesn’t request contact or phone access, it doesn’t require you to sign into a microsoft account, it doesn’t constantly send data back home, etc… It only requests file permission and camera permission while you are using the app. A lot of apps harvest your data, and the entire Windows OS is built around harvesting your data and spying on your every click. This app doesn’t seem to do that as far as anyone can discern.




  • But to be fair, even 2 ASUS WiFi 6E on their zenwifi like for example are like >300€. A Cloud gateway ultra + U7 pro + PoE injector is around that too. For me the router/AP entrance is in a place that barely gives a signal so it makes so sense to have an access point there.

    So I would get more or less the same signal with 1 access point + a wired router than 2 access points.

    Depends on your situation of course.


  • Let’s be honest, it doesn’t work for 30% of listed businesses either… Typing in more than 1 word automatically returns utter crap.

    If I type is SPAR, I get all supermarkets near me.

    If I type in SPAR supermarket because that is what it is listed under, I get this BS, random supermarkets 60+ km away. Even if it could only parse out supermarket because of how badly it parses, then it still could take supermarkets near me.

    When I type in just supermarket, I get the supermarkets near me. Any time I type more than one word, the search completely breaks…
