What I was trying to get at is that the class boundaries get fuzzy for both the riders and drivers. And where you draw the line will have consequences for both riders and drivers.

Only women can request women drivers? Ok. Will trans women and intersex people be allowed to request women drivers? They are an especially vulnerable group.
What about women drivers?
How will the boundaries of these classifications be determined, and what happens when someone tests these boundaries?

EQing for a flat in room response is NOT ideal!
Correcting a speaker requires measuring the *anechoic* response, and only the bass should be tuned to subtract the room's effect.
This video [1] provides a crash course on science of audio reproduction.

FYI, when attempting to apply this to speakers, the anechoic frequency response is required. If you try to equalize for flat-in-room response, the results are terrible. See this video[1] for loads more information and context.

No, FUTO made a new "Source First License"[1] that is not Open Source by the OSI definition.

This is actually a common misconception. In blind testing, the average listener reliably prefers the more accurate speaker. There is a talk [1] by Dr. Floyd Toole that is an excellent crash course on the science of sound reproduction and listener preference.

If you are interested in contributing to OSM to make the data better in your region, you can even make basic edits from within Organic maps, including adding addresses.

Yes, there are many possible conflicts of interest in mapping. This is why I'm excited to see the improving usability of Open Street Maps through apps like Organic Maps, and big commercial investments in open mapping data from the Overture Maps Foundation.
In many cases OSM has much more detail than google maps, with business listings and addresses being the biggest exceptions I have encountered. Fortunately, business listings are one of the main things added to the first data release from Overture Maps. For the curious, you can interact with the POI data [here.](https://bdon.github.io/overture-tiles/places.html)

To my knowledge, we just have to guess based on the various development details that they have teased on Mastodon/twitter.

System76 might be willing to collaborate on this. They are designing a trackpoint into their upcoming in-house laptop, and they make open hardware.

I have also only seen a couple JRE episodes since the Spotify takeover, but the UI is not my problem. My problem is Spotify trying to seize control of an open ecosystem.

This is why Graphene OS has an auto-reboot feature. So that a device cannot be kept plugged in until an exploit like this is discovered.

What about system76? They ship several models with coreboot.

Not to say that this would be a good idea, or that anyone does headphones this way, but you could implement PID control with analog circuits. Capacitors, resistors, and Op-amps.

PewPew Live.
It's similar to geometry wars. It has lots of game modes, great controls, and great music.
