    I have a Volkswagen ID3, I love the adaptive cruise control. Yes, it gets it wrong in some spots (signage isn't great here in Asturias, Spain), and it gets it wrong in both directi…

    I just tested. I'm 99wpm on a splitkb.com Kyria split ortho and 102wpm on the built-in keyboard of my macbook, doing a single run on each on monkeytype.com. Switching layouts (e.g.…

    Google nowadays just seems afraid to store personal data. Google have moved your maps history/timeline to be on-device only, seemingly in response to geofence warrants. They're als…

    My experience is the same, git-annex just doesn't work well with lots of small files. With annexes on slow USB disks, connected to a Raspberry Pi 3 or 4, I'm already annoyed when w…
