Are you talking about the 1996 side scroller? I’m still seeding that torrent.

Nice! Another person who did this for their son. There’s an open source hoverboard hack software which means you don’t even have to go through all of this motor controller junk like he did. No reason to waste good electronics with proper power stages and stuff.

This is the hub adapter I used for the particular model of pedal car I picked up from a yard sale: https://www.printables.com/model/270276-hoverboard-hub-adapter-for-pedal-car

And this is the replacement, larger steering wheel I made early on. https://www.printables.com/model/266452-biohazard-steering-wheel-for-pedal-car

I didn’t end up removing the pedals like he did, what I ended up doing was adding an encoder wheel to the pedals, so that my (then 4) year old son wasn’t having to work so hard to pedal through the rocks/sand/grass. So I turned mine into more like an electric-assisted pedal car.

Also, the big benefit of using the old electronics is also that it has the proper charging circuitry, and is basically ‘free’. I didn’t own any hoverboards prior to this project, I bought a bunch of them on Facebook Marketplace for like $20/ea

Digg is excited about “AI” moderation. So, they’re gonna be going the route of banning users for wrongthink just as Reddit did. I don’t think it’s going to be that popular.

If that’s the case, then why do all security professionals use Signal instead?

Any time you hear about anyone high profile using a chat app - what are they using?

They’re using Signal.

There’s a reason why they’re using Signal; as far as security it’s the best one out there. Sure, it’s tied to a phone number, but a phone number isn’t an identity.

I might not have much of a horse in this race as someone that only really plays Minecraft once in a blue moon (and normally swiftly puts it down because I’m not that kind of creative and I get too stressed out from survival mode), but honestly, I’m not a fan.

This says it all. This person should simply shut the fuck up and not be a games journalist.

We’re not talking about the politicians here, we’re talking about individuals in society who aren’t responsible for the things you point out. Normal people who visit Lemmy.

Nobody is calling anyone communist, it was used as an anchor point for the reference in the political spectrum. Hell, the word communist wasn’t even used, you’re putting words into my mouth.

The word “Nazi” has been devalued so much because of how easily the word is thrown around. It’s slapped onto anyone and everyone who doesn’t agree with wildly out of touch values commonly put forth on Lemmy.

Politics isn’t black and white. It’s not even a fucking spectrum. It’s a multi-thorned spider graph with an incredible number of facets surrounding everything from Employment, to Belief Systems, to Social Safety, and many other things. To immediately label anyone and everyone who doesn’t hit FULL FUCKING TILT on all of your issues a “Nazi” just means you’re not mature enough to have an adult conversation about the topic and that you’re living in a bubble of unreality.

We have more in common than we disagree on. The first step is not throwing a tantrum like a god damn child.

The problem is literally that people keep labeling anything slightly right of genderqueer marxist-lenninist a “nazi”. There’s plenty of common ground between what Lemmy considers a “Nazi” and actual Nazis.

And now they’re partnering with Proton!

I sync my watch history with trakt.tv – I believe there are plugins for both Plex and Jellyfin which can transfer those watch histories via that service. I don’t know of any other way.

You can do whatever the hell you want with enough lawyers.

Revolt is F/OSS

It’s not just a company with a clone of Discord, all the server back end, etc is open.

Bath doesn’t refer to the tub, it refers to bathing. You can ‘sink bathe’ with a rag and running sink water.

So a half-bath, contains 1/2 of the common furnishings for bathing.

Sounds like you’ve just always gotten away with excuses instead of learning to admit you fucked up and owning it. Has nothing to do with ADHD and has more to do with showing personal responsibility.

Instead of becoming defensive, learn to admit you fucked up and leave it at that. Apologize for fucking up, and ask for some help remembering if you’re forgetting. Your partner is doing the right thing by communicating with you, and you need to do the right thing by admitting when you’ve fucked up, apologizing, and trying to fix it.

it is illogical and self destructive to let an external being have power over my happiness, health, satisfaction, human experience… especially if this being is heavily influenced by tech companies (instagram, facebook, apple), media (hollywood, netflix, movies, shows, music), governments, religions and her friends who are also heavily influenced.

Bro, this is not how relationships work. You need to step back and get a better perspective on the real world. Relationships are equal partnerships. They should generally make both partners better people, not suck the life out of one or the other.

See, this is a perfect example – this person very clearly thinks that all men only want to have sex. It paints that picture absolutely perfectly.

They asked Women if they’d rather be alone in the woods and come across a bear, or a man; and many of them chose bear because they thought men were untrustworthy.

It’s more an expression of misandry than misogyny. Men are defaulted in many minds to be violent sexual predators.

Everything they do is in pursuit of making more money.

That’s where I’m saying you are wrong.

Publicly traded companies are beholden to their shareholders, and MUST strive to make money above all else. Privately held companies can put that profit motive behind other more important motives. Sure, does Valve want to make money? Absolutely - we’ve all got to make a living.

But is that their ONLY goal at the expense of everything else? Also, clearly not - or we’d have ads on every steam store page, we’d be paying monthly for steam, and you’ve seen all the shady, shitty things that all the other wanna-be steam competitors have done. So clearly valve does not value profit above everything.

Valve’s best behaviors and worst behaviors are motivated by profit.

That’s where I disagree. Valve is not a publicly traded company. It is not beholden to shareholders to strive for profit above all else, and it shows in Valve’s leadership.

“Valve Child Gambling” brings up nothing. Care to enlighten me? As well as hand-wavey “a lot of concessions”…care to elaborate?
