Even parts is kind of a problem though. I had an expensive appliance break and the service guys told me that the part I needed wasn't available anymore.

So forcing companies to keep spare parts a number of years after the product goes out of service should be law. Cheap things 1-3 years, expensive things 15-20 years. Or force them to open source the full specs so that 3rd parties can make the part.

 

This was old-ish news, but it's too cute not to share in it's own article. Thanks to https://lemmy.world/u/Ooops@feddit.org for the link.

Yeah, I don't edit the headline. It comes right from the source, so if it's different then they changed it.

Very weird, what's the point with EU standards if you can just choose to ignore them?

Any idea of integrating it into I2P? Being able to torrent files anonymously would be nice maybe?

Then we hope for a speedy arrest and a lengthy prison sentence including de-radicalization therapy.

Does that have live traffic data and people reporting obstacles and traffic and such?

Seems they've released a name but not caught him yet.

Since magic earth went freemium and started charging for the useful bit of it I'm waiting for an alternative. ME was closed source, but I was willing to overlook that since it at least wasn't google.

Basically I want a libre version of Waze not owned by Google. Extra sweet if they could save the traffic data in an open format on a platform where volunteers could pool resources, like IPFS or Hyphanet or something like that.
