New NASA Map Details 2023 and 2024 Solar Eclipses in the US
NASA has released a new map showing the paths of the 2023 and 2024 solar eclipses in the United States.Vanessa Thomas (NASA)
I traveled to Bend Oregon to see the 2017 eclipse. It was my first total solar eclipse and it was awesome!
I plan to observe the October 2023 eclipse from home (it will be partial from my location).
The April 2024 eclipse will be total from my location so I am hoping for clear skies on that day and plan to observe it from home.

The Cargobox Urban Utility EV
Cargobox is a design concept by Meelis Lillemets for a small electric utility vehicle that embraces the boxy aesthetic in a rib-crkottke.org
itβs been a couple of days but still: reminds of this vehicle that drives across my hometown Nijmegen (The Netherlands) and surrounding countryside. Itβs a tourist thing, solarpowered EV. Itβs called βZonnetreinβ or (loosely translated) βSolartrainβ.

It's kind of funny since they make fun of themselves.
He sings that we need a song without drugs (then sex) but with good text. Well the text is "lo lo lo lolololo lo lo lo". Then everyone tells us that our songs suck and the whole stuff repeats in some slight variations.
Lots of humpa humpa Europop ...

Linux AppImage Finally Addresses Greatest Flaw!!
Linux Appimages were at one point incredibly convenient and easy to use, that point is long past and now they don't work out of the box on distros like Ubunt...YouTube
is it a bit cynical that my first reaction to the title was "probonopd left the project?"?
Appimage on the development side feels so much like a tool of someone who fears to move on, to let go control and trust other poeple. I honestly dislike this, probably out of experience.
