  • Yeah, they got cloudflare running on their domain so even a bridge won’t help for that specific site. Depending on what you are using it for you can find alternatives with more RSS friendly sites. RSS-Bridge can track music releases through apple music even if you don’t use apple music. I am pretty sure you can find alternative sites for other types of media releases.

    I find this the best place to find RSS feeds that just work with out bridges:

  • Depends what your into. Hackernews is always a good feed to add, ars technica, your local news station, your local news paper, I got an rss-bridge running that posts to my feed when apps update with their change log, when a project on github has a news release, when one of my favorite artists releases music on apple music. Institute for the Study of War is also a decent unique feed if you want to read up on strictly tactical updates on ongoing conflicts.

    Honestly, thats the beauty of RSS feeds. They are everywhere, I got feeds aggregating memes, and webcomics. You can run a bridge that prowls instagram using your account and generate a post in your feed when your friend posts something. Literally RSS is all about turning the internet you use into your own personal feed without the BS algorithms crammed down your throat. Someone creates a post, and your feed gets sorted by time posted. Easy as that.

    I use Lemmy really for the social interaction. Something which RSS doesn’t have.





  • From an electrical engineering perspective H O S E D. Historically, “Oh you want to manufacture something cheaply but can’t due to IP issues or CCP conflicts of interests? Why not Malaysia, Vietnam or the Philippines?”

    People got to realize this is gonna jack up the supply chain so hard. Texas Instruments an IC manufacturer produces some stuff in texas. If my production is in Malaysia then surprise! Tariff to send components to Malaysia. But wait, programming, testing, packaging, and inventory of the boards is in the USA. So the PCBA is surprise surprise Tariff again. Now that the board is considered finished and ready to be sold, it turns out your customer is in china or anywhere else in the world…. So tariff. These Tariffs compound. The business isn’t going to foot the bill so its gonna get pushed to customers.

    I am really curious how the TSMC foundry in AZ is gonna work out. They can produce the wafers but packaging is done still in Taiwan. So tariff to Taiwan , tariff again back to the USA, and the tariff again because its an advanced electronic component?
