Hyundai Ioniq 5 works like this. Flush handles that can extend mechanically or can be extended by pushing the front of the handle into the car, to make the rear protrude. Then pull the rear to open the door.

I have to add a recommendation for https://supernotes.app/ (N.B. Not the Canadian e-notebook maker with almost the same name). I have been using supernotes for a while now and it's something I actually enjoy using; a feeling that has been absent for a lot of tech products for a long time.

They're an independent business based in the UK and the owners are very active and responsive to supports. Works seamlessly for me across browsers(vivaldi), windows, linux (Mint) and android (GrapheneOS) and they have Mac, iOS, and a VR app. My only complaint is that I believe they host on AWS

I've got no affiliation with them, I'm a customer and I really like what they do and how they do it (except AWS) and since they tend not to appear in these lists often I don't think many people have heard of them.

Wish I could upvote your comment more than once. Thank you for the injection of clarity.

She's in the files too. Little doubt she knew what was going on, and yet she chose not only to not speak out, but she profited from Epstein money and contacts. She might as well have been holding the girls down. Inaction is a chosen course of action and all who knew and did nothing are guilty.

All the proposed services/technologies would benefit the wider consumer base and the user but switching is too big an ask for many people. We need to encourage people into using "as well as" the global defaults. That will build the network effects that lower the cost of fully switching

An easier and bigger immediate impact would come from people replacing Chrome and google search with respectful alternatives, and/or replacing gmail or outlook with private services like proton or tuta.
Starve the surveillance machines a little bit.

Brilliant. Target the money without collateral damage to third parties

"super stable, backward compatible system without "AI"" Sounds like Linux 😁

If they want voter information don't they just ask Microsoft? Or Facebook? Or Google/Amazon/Apple? Pretty sure any one of them are more than capable of supplying far more detailed information than a state government.

Can we all buy cheap hardware when the bubble bursts and the billionaires decide not to pay the electricity bills for these ridiculous datacentres?

Brave New World has to be on the list. In many ways we already walked into the brave new world while worrying about 1984

I agree. New user introduction is very poor. Took me ages just to choose an instance - and that was in no small part because I'm here not only to escape the enshittified chokepoint capitalism of american big tech, but also because I'm utterly sick of the domination of US centric points of view and censorship. Even though i know communities are not instance locked, I wanted an instance that is not likely to be managed in the same way. Time will tell if I chose well or poorly
