I know right? Open source hardware has so many potential benefits over commercial. Significantly decreased price, privacy, good documentation, right to repair, no conflict of interest and potentially one day performance. Imagine we have engineers from across the world improving a single computer chip design, generator design, solar panel fabrication process, or maybe even perhaps an open source fusion reactor blueprint someday in the next 20 years (pun intended).
I’m seriously considering starting something like this myself. Open source blueprints for power generation/energy storage (regular batteries, thermal sand resevior based batteries, hydro power generation), water filtration, machine tools for fabricating anything, CNC machine, plasma cutters, hand tools, etc. Basically everything you could need to live Open Source.
The problem as always is getting enough designers, engineers, and volunteers.
Oh? I didn’t know that. They seemed like a good organization to me too. Open source hardware is quite lacking compared to the software side so I hope they succeed.
Found a nice list of resources for RSS. The internet really does feel like an echo-chamber now! There is so much noise to signal. Hopefully this post helps reduce the echoing a tad. I would love if you shared some tips for getting started with RSS if that’s alright!
Here’s a collection of awesome RSS feeds I know about. I’m not too familiar with other lists but perhaps others are?

Sorry didn’t mean to cause any trouble. I collect and share internet resources with others. If you want to verify this for yourself, my post history has questions similar to this one. I removed the image to make this post more ‘generic’. I am genuinely trying to share resources. My apologies if it came across as advertising.

No it’s not. This was one example of a powerful resource. Another is Libgen, and the List of Awesome

Thank you, great resource! It’s very sad to see the feds going after libraries with the recent attacks against libgen (And potentially Internet Archive). Hopefully these libraries truly will be preserved forever. Information belongs to everyone.
In his ruling, Judge McMahon wrote, ‘The plaintiffs (the publishers) have suffered irreparable harm as a result of the defendants’ (LibGen operators’) unlawful conduct and will continue to suffer harm if the defendants are permitted to continue operating LibGen,’ and said LibGen’s operation should be stopped.

Amazing! Thank you for the tips and taking the time to write this!
Not a video, but a resource. If you want to mass download playlists yt-dlp is the way to do it easily.
That is awesome! This is why Lemmy is the best social media site. Thanks @reddig33@lemmy.world for the resource!
Ayo?
In the words of Ubisoft we need to feel “comfortable with not owning your game”. If buying is not owning then piracy is not stealing.
Got any recommended resources for piracy sites/lists?
Vsauce is awesome! He makes you question everything after each video!
Also…
Some of my favorites are from Edward Frenkel and the Langlands Program. In analogy the Langlands Program can be thought of as the “Theory of Everything” of mathematics linking various seemingly disconnected fields together.
Another great video is from 3b1b where he shows Pi somehow emerge from 2 blocks colliding against each other.

Your comment belongs higher. When given the opportunity to make money by social media advertising sometimes in the thousands or millions, companies, share holders, and conflict of interest groups take it. Cablemod’s burning adapters, cryptocurrency scams, payed positive youtube reviews are some great examples. In general there is no honor system and its best to assume anything that can be abused will.
Also manipulating votes is incredibly effective towards swaying public opinion due to the bandwagon effect. Spend a days worth of effort making fake accounts and downvoting any opinion you see as undesirable and most people will follow suit. This is especially bad in echo chambers like on twitter, reddit, etc.
I wish a broader audience could be aware of this. The best I can do is try to spread the word.
