This infographic from Kitchener Utilities is very cool. IMHO education re: how #energy has been used/supplied historically is useful for future planning...
tinyurl.com/3659z98d

Pdf is of a sunflower & the stem is a pipe with little boxes that go from 1903 to 2022 describing how the utility's function/ownership/etc has changed

There's a lot of benefits to a community-owned #utility - for ex they're looking into district energy & adapting for #climate resilience here

@waterlooregion

Hi guys, I have tried the #CC1101 from #Lilygo. It is important that you pay attention to the identification CC1101 if you want to reproduce this yourself, because the device is also sold under other identifiers with a different range of functions and looks exactly the same.

It is a
#hacker #tool with which you can record and analyze #Wifi, #Bluetooth, #NFC and #Lora signals. You can also use it as a #BadUSB #development tool. It is much cheaper than a #FlipperZero, but also has a smaller range of functions.

It is somewhat disappointing that the default firmware supplied is only suitable for testing the screen, LEDs and controls. It is otherwise useless and should therefore be replaced immediately.

For my first test I choose the
#firmware from #CapibaraZero: https://capibarazero.com

It is very easy to
#install via the #browser. However, my Firefox refused to do this, which is why I used Thorium (a free Chrome variant): https://flash.capibarazero.com

Stay tuned and follow me if you don't want to miss it and I'll tell you what you can do with the device.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell @kallemp @0xF21D @chu also it's not as if things can't be better...

#AmericanHealthcare is shit because it's #ForProfitHealthcare and not regulated as a #utility and #CriticalInfrastructure!

  • After all, the same #tech and #medicine is also available in #Europe and it's not as if people here are magically more healthy and go less to doctors or whatever...

@caseyliss @therett LOL. FWIW, I convert to dark icons in the evening as a subtle hint to think about putting my phone away.

Later in the night I convert to oh-my-god-ugly all dark blue icons as a not-even-close-to-subtle smack in the head to stop using my phone and go to sleep.

So... #utility

In any event, not a significant bug. Do what you can when you can.

@bojkotiMalbona @energisch_ @mina @Nickiquote If it was my decision, #Germany would not have signed up on #FATCA bs.

That being said I've not found any #Bank in Germany that rejects #US #citizens (as basically everyone who is a resident regardless of legal status (i.e. seeking asylum, on tourist visa, permanent resident) or even legal address (i.e. even homeless people can get a bank account) as clients per-se since #Banking is regulated as a #utility and every #ConsumerBank must offer "basic accounts".

  • The only problem may be that almost all will #KYC their clients in person and with #cooperative-owned #CreditUnions they'll OFC demand a minimum buy-in of shares (usually around €50-100).

Granted a #BankAccount in Germany is kinda essential and without it one can neither get paid (all employers will wire money using #SEPA, paying wages in #cash isn't even legal in most cases) nor can one make rent, pay utilities and insurance bills (even the most slimy landlords don't want cash!)...

  • Same goes for #CashlessPayments: #girocard is the standard supported by every #BankingCard, as #CreditCards are virtually nonexistant (outside of very rich peoples' pockets and business peoples' / freelancers' wallets) due to high fees and banks being extremely stingy to even approve a credit card that isn't a #prepaid one at all...
