On the open source side of things, I'll add that gadgetbridge is pretty rapidly making progress with Garmin devices. Might not be enough if you're deep into the Garmin ecosystem etc, but if you just want something simple and private, it's a good alternative.

I suggest using the nightly f-droid repo as there's new updates multiple times per week.

They are right that Garmin sleep tracking is pretty inaccurate though. Not so much the length, but identifying the sleep stages correctly. But yeah, it's like how drinking alcohol fucks your HRV up, it's just showing the issues alcohol can cause.

Or they manually create their own typography engine using ed, the standard editor.

Or emacs with org-mode.

Humans don't work this way, especially knowledge workers. We need breaks to function at our best, and constantly doing work for 8 hours (or more) is not it. Not to mention the health issues that come from constantly sitting.

I do about the same amount overall I just don’t get around to it as quickly.

That's the important part. Who gives a fuck when and how you finish your work, as long as you do. We can only be productive for so many hours a day anyway.

tl;dr $500 rebate for e-bike, $200 for e-scooter

Has the typical low wattage and low speed limitations. Seems to be some confusing wording on whether e-bikes are limited to 200W or 250W.

The drivers for your card needs to support the required extensions, and the hardware needs to support the particular codecs as well. So if you don't have already have encoding/decoding support for the given codec with OGL etc, this won't add it most likely.

The main benefit is that application devs won't need to add multiple hardware decoding/encoding APIs, and can just target Vulkan. Cross platform support in particular is currently a mess due to the different APIs on Windows/Linux/Mac, so this will simplify things greatly. Eventually, driver devs will be able to just support Vulkan too, but that's a long way off.

It's just a pretty typical comparison with rich, highly developed Western democracies. Considering the US has the highest GDP in the world, and also the country that spends the most on healthcare per capita, coming last is damning.

I understand that trucks and SUVs are more dangerous to pedestrians due to increases in hood height and reduction in curvature (along with reduced visibility). Is this not correct?

As someone who already has a Deck, I'm more keen on this. The Index was very expensive and only had a limited run. Mind you, the Index is expensive in general and I hope they aim for Quest level prices this time around.

This is regarding the NZ government's plan to introduce higher speed limits. Unsurprisingly, the conservative party is in power at the moment.

It became very obvious after starting this channel that probably the biggest motivating force for people who care about urbanism is, simply, the fact that places with great urban qualities are often so unaffordable. Enter YIMBYism, the movement that says the more neighbors, the better, and the more people who can afford to live in a city, the better it is for everyone.
