Se state negli Usa e avete Comcast, potete cambiare canale sbattendo gli occhi. Anche così, chi è che guarda ancora la tv?
Money quote: "Wlodkowski says that channel surfing is just the beginning. Soon Comcast’s eye-gaze technology will be integrated with the company’s smart home services, allowing customers to turn on lights, control the thermostat, or open the door with their eyes. He says that Comcast isn’t collecting user data from its accessibility programs. “Entertainment should be enjoyable by everyone without having to disclose their disabilities” he tells Quartz. No data is kept unless customers specifically request that their preferences be logged on their file, he says."

Modaioli ma ambientalmente responsabili. È possibile. E non parlo di abiti riciclabili brutti come la fame. Bensì, abbigliamento con moderazione ma gusto e attenzione ai dettagli.
Money quote: "It’s becoming clear that frequent consumption of anything—especially overly trendy, seasonal, or fleeting fashion—is environmentally damaging, unnecessary, and irresponsible.
As we begin to eliminate or discourage all the plastic bags, containers, straws, and other temporary items used in food service and grocery, so too are the excesses of unsustainable apparel becoming apparent.
How does one reconcile the seemingly opposed motivations of being stylish and excited by fashion while also living a small-footprint lifestyle?
There are a number of strategies and practices that can help."

Non li uso, ma sono curioso. Vita, morte e anche qualche miracolo degli RSS
Money quote: "About a decade ago, the average internet user might well have heard of RSS. Really Simple Syndication, or Rich Site Summary—what the acronym stands for depends on who you ask—is a standard that websites and podcasts can use to offer a feed of content to their users, one easily understood by lots of different computer programs. Today, though RSS continues to power many applications on the web, it has become, for most people, an obscure technology.
The story of how this happened is really two stories. The first is a story about a broad vision for the web’s future that never quite came to fruition. The second is a story about how a collaborative effort to improve a popular standard devolved into one of the most contentious forks in the history of open-source software development."

Fotografi che vogliono essere "leggeri"
Money quote: "After much deliberation and experimentation, I settled on Adobe Lightroom CC with their cloud service as my main image storage and editing platform. The scaled down desktop app provides everything I need for my editing. Over the course of a week or so, I uploaded all of my images into the Adobe cloud. Prior to beaming everything up, I did a good bit of Spring cleaning, ruthlessly deleting a lot of old work. As of this writing, I have 32,000 images in the Adobe cloud. My subnoscription is for both Lightroom Classic CC and the CC cloud only app. When it comes time for renewal, I expect to move to CC cloud exclusively. That will cost me a mere $10 a month for the cloud storage I need."

Padre e figlio lasciano New York e vanno a vivere per un periodo in Alaska. Illustratore e autore, lui crea un libro fantastico, dimenticato per decenni. Signore e signori, riscopriamo Wilderness".
Money quote: "One hundred years after Rockwell Kent, father and son, went to Fox Island, their own lonely, snowy paradise, discovering Kent’s book feels like uncovering a secret. Now little-known, Wilderness makes going off to the wilds of Alaska—as long as they’re not so remote, not as Into the Wild as the places Christopher McCandless sought—seem like an excellent idea. The book counts as forgotten classic of nature writing, with striking illustrations by Kent, that paints a picture of people settled in lonely landscapes, a dream that seems impossible a century later."

Alla fine del 1800 Edison, conosciuto per invenzioni "elettriche" ma in realtà creatore industrioso e industriale di molte altre cose, ebbe l'idea di fondare un'azienda che realizzasse dei prefabbricati in cemento da un'unica colata: si costruiva la gabbia in legno a forma di casa, si colava il cemento dentro e voilà, ecco la vostra brown stone monofamiliare di cemento. "Stranamente" questa non gli è andata molto bene. Comunque in New Jersey un po' di casette di cemento stampato ci sono...
Money quote: "In theory, this would result in a whole new kind of home with various benefits: fireproof, insect-proof, easy to clean, and at a very affordable $1,200 per house. Edison saw this as a potential solution for cities with housing shortages, allowing people to move from slums to cheap new residential areas of poured concrete houses. To help with this, he chose to donate the patented information, completely free of charge, to qualified builders."
