“We may be able to make good-sounding instruments out of any material”: Yamaha’s Upcycling initiative turns scrap instrument offcuts into one-of-a-kind guitars
  • I’d absolutely adore those guitars if they weren’t so damned heavy. I can’t imagine building off-cut versions will alleviate that complaint.

    New app was supposed to revolutionize school busing in Boston, but it made it worse and now councilors, parents want answers
  • Not sure what this sensationalist headline is about. Zum has been pretty damned good in my experience since last Thursday. There were tons of kinks that needed to be ironed out and clearly there were situations where bus drivers screwed up bad. But honestly, I’ve been impressed with the app and IMO the kinks will be ironed out. It has brought the BPS bussing system to a whole new level of transparency. I can tell down the SECOND where my child and my child’s bus are. Before, you’d get a phone call saying the bus is running late or they couldn’t find a bus driver.

    Is there a webplatform for searching the items of local shops?
  • At least in the cannabis industry here, they have a piece of software that they use to submit their inventories to the state. My current plan is to look into incorporating my system into that so I get accurate reports that are required by law to be done anyway.

    I’d love to discuss further the pitfalls of my idea and any special considerations I might need to make.

    Is there a webplatform for searching the items of local shops?
  • I’m not sure yet TBH, but you’re welcome to help or build your own.
    I intend to make it an entirely free and open source platform that allows retailers to broadcast their inventory to aggregators. No ads just like Lemmy, though I suppose that the feed itself serves as kind of an ad.

    It was intended for the cannabis industry. Then the plan was to roll it out to the rest of the retail world when it has evolved enough.

    There’s also veilid.

    I even started a community here: https://infosec.pub/c/lemventory

    Time to criminalize environmental damage, says survey
  • It ALL hinges on making elections fair in the first place. Closed primaries and first past the post rules make banana republic democracies seem fair in comparison. Until those issues get solved, I only see the “adults in the room” deciding to boil the oceans for profit while codifying it into law more each year.

    It’s hard not to be cynical.

    Why does it seem the world is all of a sudden concerned about sexual orientation? Especially America. Did I miss how far we came as a society to see it take a 40 year step backwards?
  • If it’s as bad as it is in the US, they ALL want to privatize it.

    I’ll never forget Joe Lieberman swooping in and literally letting health insurance companies completely rewrite (destroy) the Affordable Care Act from an incremental step toward Single Payer into a law that codifies their profiteering. It put everyone into three categories:

    A.) people who make more than their incredibly low income means testing are required to shop for expensive private health insurance on the free market. Health insurance companies literally raised their rates right after this. Because of Joe, health insurance profits, medical bankruptcy, and death from being under/uninsured (70,000 people per year) are at an all-time high! Any real illness won’t be covered and you’ll be forced to cover it with a GoFundMe!

    B.) people who face stiff fines if they don’t have health insurance (neoliberal paternalism much like charging people for plastic bags and sugary drinks)

    C.) people who somehow manage to sneak in under the means testing income bar! If you are 300% or more below the actual poverty line, you get the most bare bones medical insurance possible!

    www.cbsnews.com MBNA Paid Biden's Son As Biden Backed Bill

    Hunter Biden Paid Undisclosed Amount As Consultant While Joe Biden Supported Legislation Backed By Credit Card Industry

    An oldie but a goodie.

    This utterly corrupt demagogue was blatantly bribed by the big banks to funnel a huge chunk of the incomes of all able bodied, educated people in the United States into the already absurdly rich banking industry.

    It makes me so angry when someone asserts that Joe Biden is a "decent man". No. He really isn't. He's a corrupt, greedy sociopath with slightly different marketing than his spiritural brother, Donald Trump.

    The sooner we can all realize that it's the VOTING SYSTEM in the US that needs to be completely reformed from scratch, the sooner we can stop defending these types of grifters.
