Anyone have a recommendation for a good wireless #CarPlay adapter? Looks like almost the entire industry is cheap AliExpress no-name crap. Only half-legitimate looking one I've found is this https://www.aawireless.io/en/products/aawireless-two-plus?locale=en-US

I'm glad to see someone is working on a federated #Discord-like platform. Too much of the open web is being centralized on Discord, and it's soon to become a public company. We know what's going to happen after that. #Federation https://itsfoss.com/roomy-discord-alternative/

The really unfortunate thing is there just isn’t a real alternative for YouTube out there. The fedi alternative #PeerTube is great but very limited in the amount of content, and so is #NebulaTV (which is great as far it goes).

Step 1: Lie to people about voter fraud.
Step 2: Point to people who believe the lies as justification for voter suppression.
Step 3: Profit.

First up, selections from the exhibit currently on display of Bizen ceramics. Each piece is hard-fired clay but without the glazing you usually see. It's a native Japanese art form that was revived in the 1930s after falling out of fashion. All of these pieces are from the 20th to 21st century.

Learn more about community solar in Oregon and find yourself a project here: https://www.oregoncsp.org

2024-09-04 15:51:30 UTC

Community solar is a great project. I've signed up for it myself not to save money but just to get more solar on the grid. If you’re low-income, there’s a good chance you can save a lot on your electric bill. If you’re not in a position to put solar on your roof, this is the next best thing. https://www.opb.org/article/2024/09/04/pdx-community-solar-cully-portland/
