Looks like someone out there had the same idea.

They’re currently selling a packaged system for ~$5k, which is a bit pricey, but maybe worth if you’re full time on the van life. Looks like you could probably fit 2 of these units on a typical roof, obstructions permitting. Alternatively you could do one tracker and one flat unit.

It looks like ground based 2-axis tracking systems can be found for ~$500-1k, you’d just need to bring your own expertise to mount it to the roof and program the controls yourself.

Semi-unrelated: others mentioned painting your van white (which you already have) but I’ll raise you one better - consider painting it with an IR-Emissive cooling paint, e.g., https://i2cool.com/

There’s unfortunately few products on the market at this time, but keep your eyes peeled.

Similar, but lighting system as a sleep tool. Lights start off warm white and slowly dim to amber / red, then off at the push of a button every night.

Nah, if he does away with elections I’ll mail him a postcard that says “I vote for Jill Stein” - that’ll leave him quivering in his boots and solve everything.

You know who is implementing RCV? Jill Stein.

No she’s not - she’s a physician, not a legislator. She’s not implementing anything except (hopefully) health care for her patients. She’s promising to make RCV a political priority, but even if elected, the president doesn’t write the laws.

And that even if is doing some heavy lifting, because it’s impossible for her to get enough votes (50.01%, because a plurality goes to the legislators to decide) to win.

What she can do, is syphon enough votes from from Harris to hand the country back to Trump (who I promise you will not solve the problem of genocide in Palestine), which is why the RNC and hostile foreign powers love to prop her up

Maybe it does, but not in a “we’re going to fix this” kind of way, but in a “we’re going to hand the keys to the castle over to the self-proclaimed dictator who may try to abolish elections entirely” kind of way.

If that’s what you want, just vote for Trump, don’t play around with this third party BS.

Voting for Jill Stein somehow constitutes a revolution?

It looks like you’re missing the “Manage shared info” section and “Personalized Shopping” link, which yields the above toggle for me (CA, US)…

The question is, is it gone because your privacy laws make it impossible to even offer, or because your privacy laws don’t require them to care about your opinion at all?

Both true statements. The banking apps that don’t work aren’t because google wallet doesn’t work, but because they use the same trust policies that Wallet requires in order to run (which GrapheneOS cannot meet because its not a “trusted” OS, per Google)

<end of list>

Some banking apps allegedly don’t work but i have never encountered one. If your bank has a mobile accessible website, it’s basically a non-issue.

Someone within 350 feet of this open WiFi network I hacked onto is low on rinse aid

Oh no, my privacy is ruined!

Tariffs are great for his base because they see it as a tax on their perceived “enemies”, when in reality they’re the ones footing the higher prices.

This is fantastic! Now I know exactly which manufacturer to avoid at all costs, AND they’ve made it harder for their competition to use this shitty system. Dear Ford, please keep patenting bad ideas.

In theory? It’s all about traceability and consent, preferably with a third party auditing system. A good skull salesman should be able to provide you with documentation of the origin of your skull and the consent obtained, as well as a contact at their third-party auditing firm. if the skull is fair trade, they should also be able to provide evidence that they are paying above market rates for their skull harvesters.

And when you’re Intel, those timescales are increased 10x, apparently.

It can be both things. The donors prop him up and give him the platform for money, but it’s the racism that earns him the votes, and ultimately votes are what you need to win an election.

Not necessarily, they’ll get some OS updates after google pulls the plug, but they’ll stop getting firmware and other hardware-specific updates.

Per GrapheneOS:

Pixel 4a (5G) and Pixel 5 are end-of-life and shouldn’t be used anymore due to lack of security patches for firmware and drivers. We provide extended support for harm reduction.
