The best pirates are librarians with legit ethics.
Preserve human knowledge and make it available to everyone.
I hate that you are right about mostly just greedy dipshits pissing in the high seas without contributing.
We should have taken up arms after Aaron Swartz…
Several of my utility companies and bank sites do this still. It’s absurd and in the stranger places.
What pisses me off is seeing more and more “You need to upgrade your browser for this site!” when using Firefox.
Having to use a spoof header gets frustrating frequently too.

What.cd. - RED is great but there’s still a hole…
He is referring to turning Lemmy code itself into a decentralized tracker software.
A torrent post to Lemmy that your client would download Meta data from etc.
Yup. No clue on cause etc. even some services on the irc are hosed.
Edit: in some other irc, saw word it’s being worked on and status ”wonky"
Tech issue seems. Don’t think a takedown or malfeasance.
If you are decent with script type stuff, and have tasker, I believe you can build your own via kwgt:

You can use tasker to set up variables that kwgt then can render in several ways.
I’ve only done simpler things but it’s worked well for me for years.
That’s fair, and understood in most cases that’s appropriate.
Unfortunately I’m my case, I need to replace missing muscle mass which should also then in turn burn more calories etc.
I’ll return to the video with that in mind. My long term goal is to some day learn from and spar with my buddy who teaches martial arts… He’s already helped me with diet adjustment tips to be able to stick to the changes the doc wants.
Fingers crossed
That’s frikken awesome to hear. I used to do century rides back from the 90’s and 2000’s, and really have missed the trails.
Thank you!
That’s fine except I’m not using it in straight power mode, and set my pacing by my heart rate. I’m using it exactly as my doctor advised.
If my heart rate is consistently maintaining elevated levels matching what the doc said, then the video is irrelevant.
An exercise you cannot control the pace of properly is counter intuitive and can be dangerous to certain health conditions. If used correctly, this only expands access to more users.
Key words “used correctly”.
There are people needing this kind of assist not from being fat. In my case, I’m in a long haul recovery from a severe spinal injury. Trying to rebuild considerable loss of muscle.
Without the assist, cycling would literally be impossible.
Due to posture needed for long walking, that isn’t possible yet for me either. Anything over half a mile destroys me for a full day.
My diet is already advised by a doctor. Your videos present like my food choices and lack of movement are 100% the problem.
Mine is pretty sweet… The tires made it much more comfortable to ride in general and having the motor for the assist on hills is frikken amazing. Really helps prevent the deterrence against using it as a bike.
The motors have quite the kick too… I expect the urge to get into trouble is great.
Heh, I think I just got one of these types inadvertently.
1000 watt motor (2x 500), large batt etc… I think it does close to 35 mph if I try but I haven’t even taken it out of pedal assist yet.
I’m in USA, so laws are more localized. I suspect this thing might be illegal, but it’s gray area right now. Gonna just behave with it and hope for the best.
The concern I would have is that currently there isn’t great established ways to get something like this clearly made legal… And I have a needed use case.
I weigh enough that clearly legal lower wattage bikes are all not rated for me… Barely. I’m using the bike to lose weight. In the interim, this is what works.
I hope they clear it in some capacity, like just age or “legal until you are stupid” like riding it on public sidewalks or such. A wattage limit overall is stupid unless there’s a way to certify you will behave.
I’d be interested in this as well, and would love to help test if you would like.
This is pretty slick, thank you for sharing the link!
Been on variations for a couple years… So far the best I can tell you is to be willing to try the others before giving up.
I’d have progress with one, plateau, then bump to a variant and it would surge.
Careful planning with my doctor going really far with this!
The various GLP drugs all have different stats and some work better than others depending on your body.
Currently on ozempic. It’s moving slowly but seems consistent in effect… The loss isn’t very obvious yet (3 months) but I do note a substantial decrease in desire and capacity. While trulicity was effective to a degree, it leveled off early for me. Trulicity has done well for my girlfriend, and her A1C has dramatically improved.
My case is use in combination with getting out on a bicycle, then long term the bike will be my check once stopping the GLP.
Don’t fear the higher doses. As long as you are careful with your dose timing, the GI disruptions can be managed and they do settle down a bit. If you bump up and find too much issue, your doc should be good with dropping back a notch. Find the most effective one for you but don’t push for never hungry.
Most importantly, don’t run yourself crazy with this. Calorie tracking is less important. The better goal might be to just work at habit forming… Pay closer attention to the other sensations toward getting full and react sooner. The meds for me primarily amplify that moment between “that’s enough” and “ugh just a little too much”.
Some basic sense as to what is high caloric density vs portion will go much further than counting exact calories in the long run, unless you plan to obsess over calculators forever. It’s good to establish an understanding of what is in your foods, but you don’t need to know how many feet between Chicago and New York to drive there. Approximation and regular cues to monitor yourself are more practical.
This was one of the best things I’ve watched in a long long time. Thank you for sharing. I was 2 years old when this was recorded, but much of her talk resonates as urgently current and valuable.
For others who might be interested in similar, Douglas Englebart and his team discuss many similar aspects of looking forward toward where we are headed, through the lense of history.
Initially read “liquidated” as “liquefied” and somehow it was both a more beautiful and disgusting image.
Thank you for the eloquence, Major.
That server sounds a bit older in the teeth… Has new thermal paste been applied to the cpu? Even if the reported temps are under 90c, you might be getting hot spots causing glitches inside the package.
Worth trying a couple of different generations of kernel as well, both newer and older. You might be hitting a regression somewhere.
Well I’m just gonna have to pirate it EVEN HARDER.
