I had one of these around 2011! Used it to host a websocket server - a novelty at the time - during a conference talk, and it held up to 30+ clients before dying.
+1 to this. I seriously believe frontend was more productive in the 2010-2015 era than now, despite the flaws in legacy tech. Projects today have longer timelines, are more complex, slower, harder to deploy, and a maintenance nightmare.
I remember maintaining webpack-based projects, and those were not exactly a model of simplicity. Nor was managing a fleet of pet dev instances with Puppet.
Neat. What I wasn't able to find was the dynamic library, just the `litestream` executable. Was there some secret you used for the litestream dylib? Thanks in advance!
Got it....you beat me to it. I had just figured that part out!! I didn't understand that part. ALSO, and this might be helpful for others, in the releases section, if you expand the little blue link at the bottom that says something like "see the other 35 assets", then the VFS extension will be downloadable from there!
While the software is indeed behind - e.g. Nio already had all of this in 2022/2023, and a much better UI, I'm sure the upcoming Rivian R2 and R3 would sell very well in Europe.
Europe will probably be the largest market where US EVs will try to compete with Chinese cars. BYD is already selling better spec’d models for less than this Rivian, and Xiaomi will enter the market late 2026.
I don’t see how Rivian can compete, either on price or features.
Doing long highway drives is effortless. Think cruise control, but you can let go of the wheel.
The hardware necessary for level 2 autonomy is estimated to cost about US$400 in a Tesla. Much higher for companies using Lidar though prices are coming down as well.
I don’t think that the production model will look like that, I believe it’s a wrap. Also suspect it’s a bit of a joke on the model being called the R2 (the colors and patterns are reminiscent of R2-D2).
For some reason dutch advertising agencies went all-in on AI. There are tons of local commercials using the most terrible generated content and voiceovers.
Screentime helps, but it doesn't really solve the problem. They still see the exact same content shared by friends at school, and 15 minutes a day is enough to do damage.
There's hardly any parallel between the type of political content (or corn) that was available on TV in the 90s, and what's found in today's social media. It's not political commentary, it's a constant stream of pure, unfiltered manipulation, lies, brainwashing, prejudice and antisocial behaviour.

This is exactly what conservative talk radio was like, and it radicalized a bunch of boomers – especially the ones with long car commutes who had limited counter examples. There’s a direct line between the guys joking about eating spotted owls or how feminists were too ugly to worry about rape to the modern environment, or saying that the government was discriminating against white men, but the difference now is scale and variety: now it reaches more people and there are more flavors available so the young woman who would’ve been turned off by Rush instead gets some wellness influencer talking about how birth control causes cancer.
Rush Limbaugh started broadcasting in the 80's. Fox News in the 90's. Prior to that you had decades of propaganda against "communists" and anti-war protesters. Prior to that you had blatant lies about what would happen if black people got civil rights. Before that you had blatant lies about women's suffrage. The bullshit has always existed in very large quantities. The common uniting thread for the vast majority of the bullshit is conservative beliefs. They are always doing their most to make the world a worse place for some group or another.
