@andre123 credo che qui altri ti possano essere d'aiuto, io non uso quelle cose da cellulare.

Non capisco tutte queste critiche per un servizio che mette a disposizione una suite tipo quella di Google ma basata su un SW Open Source, appoggiandosi interamente su un'infrastruttura europea.
A me che sono alla ricerca di alternative a Google sembra quantomeno un'iniziativa molto interessante, sicuramente da tenere sott'occhio visto che al momento non sono ancora partiti (non ci sono neanche i prezzi dei vari piani).
Siete tutti oppositori politici russi o iraniani che avete bisogno di sistemi che vi rendano irriconoscibili anche ai vostri genitori? đ

Hackaday Links: March 15, 2026
Some days, it feels like weâre getting all the bad parts of cyberpunk and none of the cool stuff. Megacorps and cyber warfare? Check. Flying cars and holograms? Not quite yet. This week, things took a further turn for the dystopian with the news that a woman was hospitalized after an altercation with a humanoid robot in Macau. Police arrived on scene, took the bot into custody, and later told the media they believed this was the first time Chinese authorities had been called to intervene between a robot and a human.
The woman, reportedly in her seventies, was apparently shocked when she realized the robot was standing behind her. After the dust settled, the police determined it was being operated remotely as part of a promotion for a local business. Weâve heard thereâs no such thing as bad publicity, but weâre not sure the maxim holds true when you manage to put an old lady into the hospital with your ad campaign.
Speaking of robots, the U.S. Library of Congress recently discovered and subsequently restored Georges MĂŠlièsâs Gugusse et lâAutomate (Gugusse and the Automaton), a short film from 1897 thatâs considered the first piece of science fiction cinema. As far as anyone knows, itâs also the first time a robot appeared on screen, although this isnât exactly The Terminator weâre talking about here.
The runtime is less than a minute, but to make the short story even shorter: a guy cranks up a robot that gets bigger and bigger until it turns on its maker and starts to hit him with a stick. The human responds in kind by smashing the robot with a cartoonishly large mallet until it poofs out of existence. The modern film school interpretation is that itâs a cautionary tale about the dangers of technology, ye old Black Mirror, if you will. Since nobody can ask old Georgie what he was going for, weâll just have to take their word for it.
Returning to the desert of the present, Tomâs Hardware reports that at least one manufacturer is starting to pack their new RAM with an additional non-functioning filler module. With prices skyrocketing, this allows folks who canât afford to fill all the memory slots on their motherboard to stick something in there that at least looks the part. This may seem pointless, but consider that many gamers and other power users have PCâs with clear side panels to show off their elaborate internal layouts. We get it from an aesthetic standpoint, but it also sounds like a new way to potentially get scammed when buying parts on the second-hand market. Though, to be fair, it could be that weâre just overly cynical after watching that Georges MĂŠliès film. At the very least, the current price of memory certainly makes it feel like weâre being hit with a stick.
Finally, what good is living in a cyberpunk world without the occasional bout of rebellion? Thatâs where the Ageless Linux project comes in. This is a Linux distribution thatâs intentionally configured to violate the California Digital Age Assurance Act, which essentially states that the operating system must ask the user how old they are and make this information available to any piece of software that wants to know.
To be fair, being in violation of this law right now is easy â indeed, the OS youâre using now is almost certainly not compliant. But the idea is that it may bend the knee at some point, while Ageless Linux wonât. One could argue that they started the project a bit too early, but frankly, the whole thing is performative in the first place, so if it gets people talking, thatâs enough. Weâre particularly interested in their idea of making a non-compliant hardware device thatâs cheap enough to distribute while still meeting the definition of a computing device, as itâs written in the California Digital Age Assurance Act.
Think they would mind if we borrowed the idea for this yearâs Supercon badge?
See something interesting that you think would be a good fit for our weekly Links column? Drop us a line, weâd love to hear about it.

@ajroach42 @djsundog @alyx @vfrmedia @rey this is like watching people fall in love on discord, but more usefully to humanity

@rey@toot.cat @alyx@frogs.lgbt @ajroach42@retro.social @vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de you don't need a license for a forklift, just $100 and a driver at the nearest soda bottling plant who'd like a free long lunch across town :fingerguns:

Huh. They look like extras for the robots in #Interstellar

@alyx @djsundog @ajroach42 @vfrmedia now is the time when we get to find out who in Seattle has a forklift license
