| techrights[sec]_ | at theminimum require "OSS" licenses for embedded software | May 07 10:03 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | there is a followup talking about encryption and rev-eng | May 07 10:03 |

| schestowitz-pi2 | that requires many people | May 07 10:11 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | even $1 from each can cause change | May 07 10:11 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | not to mention votes | May 07 10:11 |

| schestowitz-pi2 | it's like "afterlife | May 07 14:23 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | which incidentally we speak of right now | May 07 14:23 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | forgot the reaso... context | May 07 14:23 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | wait, oh, it was about me needing to renew my driver's licence | May 07 14:23 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | and we talk about how when people die they don't have this nuisance | May 07 14:23 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | or endless tasks like renewing "documents" | May 07 14:23 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | or letters from banks | May 07 14:23 |
| techrights[sec]_ | I'm not sure what to say about drivers licenses. I dislike having to drive. | May 07 14:29 |
| techrights[sec]_ | and dislike even more the obligation to own a car, especially one with | May 07 14:29 |
| techrights[sec]_ | an internal combustion engine | May 07 14:29 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | expired passport is one thing | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | we have 4 nationalities | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | but... if there is no continuity with the licence | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | then they might ask me to redo tests etc. | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | and that would be more costly | May 07 14:31 |
| techrights[sec]_ | yes it is important to minimize the wasted effort. Along those lines it might | May 07 14:31 |
| techrights[sec]_ | be useful to consider renting once a year for a day trip just to keep up on | May 07 14:31 |
| techrights[sec]_ | the practice of driving. | May 07 14:31 |
| techrights[sec]_ | :/ | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | EVs etc. even if I rent one, still need to same licence | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | btw, my licence still shows the same mugshot when i got the first one | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | aged 17 | May 07 14:31 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | driving only gets easier over time | May 07 14:33 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | and practice isn't a matter of law | May 07 14:33 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | nor need you provide proof of rent/purchase | May 07 14:33 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | (afaik) | May 07 14:33 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | driving itself is unsafe, even if due to other drivers | May 07 14:33 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | driving to just retain something is like turning on the engine] | May 07 14:33 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | to keep the battery of the car charged | May 07 14:33 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | a sign of a car being underutilised and thus redundant | May 07 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | :/ | May 07 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Practice is a matter of skill maintenance. There is also a traffic culture | May 07 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | which drifts over time and that needs first hand experience to understand too. | May 07 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | The newest cars use so much battery that you have to drive the hell out of them | May 07 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | each week just to keep the battery at usable levels. We had a charger installed | May 07 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | on ours so we can load it from the wall when needed and only drive once a week | May 07 14:34 |
| techrights[sec]_ | or so +/- | May 07 14:34 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | taxi @ 20 eurosx52=~ 1000 euros/annum | May 07 14:36 |

| techrights[sec]_ | Now that Uber killed the industry, taxis are at least 50 Eur per trip and there | May 07 14:37 |
| techrights[sec]_ | are no longer any local taxis either. | May 07 14:37 |
| techrights[sec]_ | Yes I saw that article too. Drivers used to be able to make a reasonable living | May 07 14:37 |
| techrights[sec]_ | with a taxi. Now they just barely scrape by, at best, all due to Uber and | May 07 14:37 |

| schestowitz-pi2 | topic-change | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | found a workflow bug | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i was emptying the wrong file | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | hence, my flattened rrrrr had become 55k lines long | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | not a big deal | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i began treating those filles as bonus/extras | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i use rrrr in firefox, but these can help hh.... hmmm... trying to find the word... | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | have a second go at collecting what was accidentally left behind | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | or cluster stuf that's easier to do algorithmically, e.g. youtube vids | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i plan to do the 2 topic articles tonight | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | having just finished all the "standard" stuff | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | bad day tomorrow for biking, we put them in the shed for now, need to grease up the chain after | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | all those months, but in high spirits and looking forward to things | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | as i said earlier, i see no rush to seek income any time soon, so staying healthy is key | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | we have so many protein shakes stocked up and i hope to be having a productive year after | May 07 14:41 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | the errands are done with, esp. the police report | May 07 14:41 |

| schestowitz-pi2 | and still not done | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | today i saw soldering gun new, 6 pound, inc. the metal strip | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | but would rather now perform jobs on thw prod pi | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | it's also our storage server and backup server for open/working files | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | as needs evolve and pi availability improves (prices down) | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | we might get more | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | for now i'm drowning in OK hardware and can attack the pimroni module to any other pi (i use 2) | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | inc. for this session (pi400) | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | one very positive thing is, my mind has less to process, due to no shifts | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | and sleep patterns better | May 07 15:57 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | i still take many naps, but when i feel like i need them, not in preparation for something | May 07 15:57 |

| techrights[sec]_ | The soldering is done separate from the pi and HATs are only ever removed or | May 07 15:59 |

| techrights[sec]_ | would be disruptive, but it's not a frequent event. Better to visit a | May 07 15:59 |
