In short, I do things because I like them, need them, want them to or would love to see them happen.

Do I like seeing 80+ stars for lists.d? Yes!
Would I love to see people using #NeoFloppy #SSDs for real?. Of course!
Do I want to see more #PersonalLightVehicles instead of #SuperUserlessVehicles? Yeah, Duh!
Do I hope for someone to build a tiny486 and use it with _OS/1337 for some #DataRecovery of #LegacyMedia? Shure...

But I didn't start any of these in expectation of anything. Neither Recognition nor Fame nor Money nor anything.

Would I love these to go big like #Linux did?

Yes, because in the end that project was successful because @torvalds has been open to contributions and that's how #Linux came to "run on [almost] everything [it could be forced on]", and that could not have been done by a solo developer!

So yeah, folks should be glad that people actually do #FLOSS / #OpenSource in general and thank them, because without it, we'd have a way worse world!

@modular hinzu kommt dass jene #Elektroauto-#Förderung ausschließlich für Fahrzeuge der EG-Fahrzeugklasse M1 (aka. "#Auto") angeboten wird und als #Subvention damit #PLV|s, #ÖPNV / #ÖPFV und #Fahrräder sabotiert.

Die #Hersteller dagen verkaufen immer teurere & fettere #SuerUselessVehicles statt #PersonalLightVehicles und selbst wenn Leute mangels #Bus, #Bahn (und Fähigkeit zum #Radfahren) das ökologisch sinnvollste tun wollen und nen #Kleinfahrzeug / #Leichtfahrzeug statt Auto kaufen wollen wird dies sabotiert.

Aber was erwarten anderes als #EliteProhection & #CarBrain-#Klientelpolitik wir von einer @Bundesregierung die von einem (Ex?) #Bankster samt #Internetausdrucker-Partei angeführt wird (welcher um bloß nicht mit #Lohnarbeiter*innen im delben Verkehrsmittel zu sitzen nen #Privatflieger nach #Sylt nimmt)?

If you have a problem with these, please kindly fuck off in silence!

This list is non-exhaustive...

#NoHumanIsillegal: #FerriesNotFrontex!
#PNCHNZS! Being a racist, fascist or otherwise shit person is a choice. People can choose to deradicalize, but not 'choose' not to be targeted by Neonazis!
#NSAfDverbotSofort - no excuses!
#TransRightsAreHumanRights
#HousingFirst, cuz #HumanRights are not negotiable, but precondition to even consider negotiations!
#UBI instead of #MeansTesting; Cuz survival is not optional!
#Education is a #HumanRight and should be provided to anyone without any paywalling or charges. This includes access to #Textbooks, which should be provided #DRM-free. All education material should be publicly available and it's creation and updates be paid by the public just like schools.
#ClothesHaveNoGender
#PublicTransport should be #free, #accessible and publicly funded and run.
All #infrastructure is a natural monopoly and should be publicly run and financed solely by either transit fees or public spending.
#accessibility should be mandatory without exceptions. Paywalling it should be criminalized as a hatecrime.
Every #home should have access to #DrinkingWater, Sewage Handling, #electricity and #fiber #internet. IDGAF if it's at some remote island or desert oasis!
#HealthCare is a #HumanRight, not a commodity!
#Politicans should have to obey the same #laws re: secondary income as #PublicServants and be barred from recieving any other #compensation, #bonuses or have any other income beyond the compensation for their post.
#Politicans should only be paid #MinimumWage!Wage
Everyone should have to contribute to #SocialSecurity programs and in return, everyone gets eligible. That means no exceptions for #billionaires and other rich people. If I have to afford ~ 20% of my paycheck for #healthcare then so can all the #Banksters!
#MinimumWage must be able to afford not mere survival, but actually be sufficient to afford #downpayment on a #home and not just #rent. It should also be automatically be adjusted with #inflation and not be a political bargaining chip!
Denying people access to legal #work is a crime against humanity. People should have a right to fair and non-discriminatory access to employment regardless of legal status.
#StockTrading should be regulated as #Gambling.
Advertising Gambling or using Gambling / #PayToLoose / "#PayToWin" / #P2W mechanics to minors should be as illegal as advertising cigarettes and liquor to them.
Banning or age restricting #LGBTQIA* content as "#AdultContent" should be illegal. #QueerErasure is indefensible. If you're to prudish to accept that #LoveIsLove then that's a "You" Problem!
#Cyberfascism needs to be outlawed and Corporations like #Palantir need to be disbanded, their assets stripped and their employees jailed for crimes against humanity. They are morally indefensible!
#BanBillionaires, strip them off their assets and wealth and redistribute it. #Billionaires should be sentenced to #CommunityService for life as means to (at least partially) undo harm caused.
#SuperUselessVehicles should be disincentivized and instead any #incentives and #subsidies should be given only to #PersonalLightVehicles of classes #L2e, #L5e, #L6e & #L7e.
#SexworkIsWork!
#CSAM is indefensible and authorities that shutdown Pedo Forums should be mandated to #delete [and report] all such content at the hosters and get them to delete it. This includes Kiwi Farms which got fired by Gandi [french registrar] for hosting CSAM!
It should be illegal to enforce foreign laws overseas. Yes this includes "#Embargos" from the #USA!

Every System that has a #clock inside has to self-adjust it correctly without user intervention. I don't care if it uses a time signal like DCF77, GNSS or NTP. Computers must syncronize their hardware clock to [Unixtime](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time) regardless of the used OS
#Police should only be allowed to carry and use what law-abiding citizens are to. If you don't trust your neighbour with a #gun, why would you trust a stranger who doesn't even have to evidence proper storage, training, proficiency and isn't subject to due diligence?
#QualifiedImmunity is #PoliceState horeshite and must never be allowed and retroactively canned. If you don't want #accountability or #consequences for those in power, you are a bootlicker.
Long-lasting peace in the #MiddleEast will most likely only happen if a unified #laicist nation compromising of #Israel and #Palestine gets built. It's just currently not intended to happen by both sides!
#Ukraine is the #LitmusTest for #EU & #NATO. If Ukraine doesn't win beyond the #StatusQuoAnteBellum (1994-2011) and doesn't get EU & NATO membership it'll either be destroyed by #Russia in Putin's neo-czarist ambitions and thus will legitimize & normalize the Russian #CrimeOfAggression, which will then focus on #Baltics and espechally #Finland. Already the western #cowardice of not following through on the #BudapestMemorandum puts the #NPT and the trustworthyness of the USA, #UK and The West in general into question.
A #TotalEmbargo against Russia is long overdue - including a #SeaBlockade, not just against the #ShadowFleet which poses a statistically inevitable risk for the #envoirment!
#NuclearPower is not #renewable and using precious radioactive elements to boil water to spin a turbine is an insult to #physics! #Renewables should be mandatory and we can talk about #Fusion once #ITER actually evidently works and is able to sustain net positive energy output into the grid.
"#AI" is #WastefulComputing and should be considered an #EnvoirmentalCrime and #CrimeAgainstHumanity, with all the prosecution it entails!
The only people that have a 'right' to be 'proud' of their #citizenship are those that actually had to put in effort to get #naturalized. People who won the #BirthLottery are disqualified.
Also anyone who is "proud" of their citizenship by birth evidently has achieved nothing on their own worth to be proud of! Even if it's just graduating school, driving license, forklift certification or some kind of art.
We need #RightToRepair, not only but espechally for #electronics! This includes tight mandates to provide #parts, #tools, #documentation and #support under #FRAND [fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory] terms.
#Patents on #Software, espechally #GameMechanics, should be illegal. No #patent should be issued without evidence of it being a genuine, new #invention with a demonstrable prototype. If #Kickstarter wouldn't accept it, then neither should any #PatentOffice!
#Patents of lifeforms and DNA have to be outlawed.
#Copyright to something should cease the moment the copyright holder refuses to offer the copyrighted work under FRAND terms. If buying isn't ownership than #piracy isn't #theft. Also #OneTimePurchase options [for a specific version] should be mandatory by law and #subscriptions only be allowed for products and services that actually incur costs to upkeep (i.e. bandwith and storage for hosting/streaming). Designing something as "#LiveService" when it has no reason (i.e. refusing to sell physical copies) to should be deemed a fraudulent circumvention of it.
"#ClientsideAnticheat" is #malware and needs to be prosecuted as such. Any "#AntiCheat" should be Server-Sided only.
#PriceGouging must be prosecuted harder, espechally when it comes to #utilities.
Just like #FuelPrices at a #GasStation, so should #ChargingStations be mandated to publish their pricing publicly in realtime and not discriminate customers!
Everyone should have a #RightToBanking without discrimination. Any closure of accounts must be legitimized by actual criminal activity (i.e. money laundering, fraud, terrorism financing, ...) and go through due process with appeals.
Everyone should have a right to free, unseizeable #ID documents without mandating #biometrics or other privacy invasions! These should be eligible as Travel #Passport and people should have global #FreedomOfMovement only restricted by an actual, individual judge ruling that went through proper oversight and appeals. Duplicate Issues to avoid Visa Conflicts (with duplicate Serial Numbers!) should be offered and granted upon request.
#Gender does not belong into ID documents! Just like weight, hair colour, religion, occupation and address don't!

#PersonalLightVehicles

Ich hab ja einen Renault Twizy und inzwischen gibt's ja auch den Nachfolger (Mobilize Duo) zu kaufen.

Das Dingen deckt letzlich 90% meiner Autobedürfnisse ab.

@BrennpunktUA @plusmid @ulrichkelber Grundsätzlich geht viel mit PET (+Fasern), Stahl/Aluminium & Triplex / Polycarbonat.

Nur besteht kein monetäres Interesse ein

Auto < €20k
#L5e-#PLV [≤15kW] <€10k
#L2e-PLV [≤4kW] <€5k

anzubieten weil die #Marge bei #SuperUselessVehicles höher ist als der Verkaufspreis kleinerer & leichterer Fahrzeuge.

#PersonalLightVehicles und das komplette Kompakt-Segment (3-Türer Hatchback) sind quasi tot und das bisschen was es gibt sind #KeiCar-Importe mit größerem Motor als 660cm³ Zweizylinder!

@monkee +9001%

Weil FETT kann jeder, schnell können viele aber effizient & kompat nur wenige.

Dabei sagen selbst Forscher*innen dass wir kleiner und leichter bauen MÜSSEN!

Wir brauchen #PersonalLightVehicles statt #SuperUselessVehicles!

Ideal wäre natürlich #RechtAufÖPNV, #RechtAufHomeOffice & #RechtAufGlasfaser aber das ist noch illusorischer!

https://github.com/KBtechnologies/PLV

@plusmid @ulrichkelber O.o

Keine Frage: Statt #SuperUselessVehicles sollten die vorallem mehr #PersonalLightVehicles baun und sufhören #überfettet|e "#Crossover"-Shice zu verkaufen!

@lisp @ntv Ich will nen VW 1L!

Aber in bezahlbar…

#PersonalLightVehicle #PLV #PersonalLightVehicles

@paul @futurebird personally, I wished #VehicleTax would go by #deadweight and #dimensions and incentivize #smol and efficient #PersonalLightVehicles over #SuperUselessVehicles…

Currently the #EU vehicle classes for #PersonalLightVehicles either have severe limits in terms of deadweight and/or power & maximum speed…

Granted, if they want to incentivize #cheap #EVs they gonna have to either exclude #batteries or incentivize #Methanol #FuelCell or ease up on said restrictions and bring them closer to #KeiCars!

Either way, I wish the @EUCommission & @europarl_en would be ambitious and basically push for the "European EV equivalent of a #TataNano"...

This would be a good shift to combat the #Enfattening and #Enshittification of #cars!

OFC as @notjustbikes, @SheDrivesMobility and #AdamSomething will point out, this does not give Governments from #EU to #City and #County an excuse to slack off on #CyclingInfrastructure, #PublicTransport and #WalkableNeighbourhoods, but at least it's a step away from shoving more bullshit into #cars and to counteract the trend to sell way too expensive, #thicc and heavy "#luxury" cars!

https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/115539629687950888

#PersonalLightVehicles

Can soneone confirm or deny that @EUCommission / @europarl_en is planning to release a new #VehicleClass for #PersonalLightVehicles?

Cuz that would be great!

https://github.com/KBtechnologies/PLV

#PersonalLightVehicle

Seriously, if all the #BEVs are *overpriced #SuperUselessVehicles instead of #PersonalLightVehicles then this is 100% self-inflicted...

@reticuleena @peterjelinek deshalb dominiert #China und #Japan, statt dass #Deutschland und die #EU inventives für die EG-Fahrzeugklassen #L7e pushed und wie Japan #KeiCars aka. #PersonalLightVehicles priorisiert...

https://infosec.space/@kkarhan/115491546768125958

@ulrichkelber am Ende ist es doch nur #Selbstsabotage der eigenen Industrie weil #US-mäßiger #Protektionismus beschissene #SuperUselessVehicles pusht statt brauchbare #PersonalLightVehicles zu nem brauchbaren Preis…

Die Zahlen zur "V.R." #China sehen erstmal groß aus aber >95% davon sind #KeiCars und #Kleinwägen, der Rest (Mini-)Busse und LKW die juristisch noch unter EG-Fahrzeugklasse M1 fallen…

@hllizi darf gern auch außerhalb der EG-Fahrzeugklasse M1 sein wenn das anderweitig nicht machbar ist...

Klassen #L2e & #L5e bieten sich für #PersonalLightVehicles geradezu an...

Not that I advocate for combustion engines - far from it.

I just want #FuelCells to finally steamroll #LithiumBatteries because refueling #Methanol is faster than any charging could ever be due to #EnergyDensity and #Physics...

Also #FuelCell solves the #RangeProblem or rather "#RangeFear" elegantly with existing (or at least trivially convertible) infrastructure, as it's way faster and cheaper to clean a fuel storage tank and pump and converting it to IPCA 99,9% Methanol, which whilst toxic upon ingestion is abundant in nature to the point that unlike #gasoline it's naturally being decomposed by bacteria and fungi.

Instead of displays of #hyperconsumerism we need should demand smaller and more efficient like the #VW #XL1 (or rather #1L / #L1 but without #enshittification into a "#GermanEngineering #Shitpost" ...

Cuz that's what happens when someone decided to go completely bonkers in terms of high-end...

Affordable #PersonalLightVehicles are the way of the future.

And that's why I propose to aggressively work towards #PersonalLightVehicles and whilst some people may easily consider products like the #TataNano yet another billionaire's doodling turned into a product of a person who is inherently not perfect (but who'm I wished to have the chance to have tea with, but sadly never got.)...

Needless to say what one thinks of the Nano (which I'd love to have one as collectible if I ever got more money than sense!) or it's predecessor, the Indica (which looks like an #Opel #Corsa C 5-door.), we can propably agree that if we can't have #PublicTransport reach every village in a reasonable frequency 24/7, Personal Light Vehicles are the way to go.

Cuz we can all agree that the #WankPanzer by #SwastiCar isn't going to "save the world" (despite some dellusional #BEV fans thinking!) because it's overall #wastefulness is the Problem.

But also there is no #US equivalent answer to say the #OpelRocks, #CitroenAmi or even #KeiCars for that matter, with some states having been lobbied by #US car makers to explicitly outlaw #PersonalLightVehicles for no valid reason (but that they cut into their margins)... I mean, ask @tikibunnyimports about the issues some #DMV|s will create for buyers who not just want to collect weird smol cars but actually drive them.

Now granted, espechally when you let a convinced petrolhead with racing license like #MatthiasMalmedie drive that #PLV, you gonna see him dislike it and "not get it"...

And pricing-wise the #OpelRocksE needs to come down way more, with competing vehicles from "P.R." #China being about €1k cheaper in spite of penalty tarriffs...

Still, we can all agree that we need #SmallerCars and with very few exceptions, a #PersonalLightVehicle makes way more sense than a jacked-up pickup truck that won't even fit into most urban roads in #Germany and espechally #Japan.

Jokes aside, the #Enshittification and #Enfattening of #Cars as well as spread of #CarCentrism #Propaganda from the #USA is a massive issue.

#Affordable, #accessible and #available #PublicTransport is a non-negotiable necessity even if we don't give a fuck about #ClimateChange simply because at this rate, people will soon be unable to afford anything.

#Greedflation needs to be actively combatted by #regulation and that also means setting the right #incentives...

For example, keeping Public Transport affordable and thus induce demand (See #DeutschlandTicket) is one way.
Another Option is to prioritize #PersonalLightVehicles over #SuperUselessVehicles in terms of #RoadTax, #Parking and #regulation.

The #Netherlands were once almost as #CarCentric as the #USA [ @notjustbikes can propably vouch for that looking into the History, digging up 1960s & 1970s Amsterdam as example.] but they chose to do something about it with the fact that as a #German I can vouch for the fact that the Netherlands have excellent roads and far less traffic due to viable alternatives.
