So, good news: Since you apparently aren’t scraping the content, only the UI, my first comment is irrelevant. And this probably doesn’t break AGPL.

Bad news: If I’m understanding you correctly you are copying and re-serving someone else’s page design and layout, which might fall under reproduction of copyrighted material and may be an even bigger issue than what I said in my first comment. Especially since your Terms of Service appears to claim ownership of the design.

If I were you, I would really make sure you aren’t breaking law with this. Seems like something that could come back to bite you very easily.

Hey, just so you know this is legally iffy.

PieFed.social is hosted in the EU, and this amount of scraping can fall under the Copyright Directive 2001/29/EC and the Database Directive 96/9/EC.

Even if the content is public, EU law can restrict bulk extraction and republication. Especially if you’re mirroring a substantial part of the site or making it available through your own frontend.

Might be worth reconsidering what you’re pulling and how you’re using it, or atleast making sure it’s legal.

edit: I’m obviously not a lawer, this might have no problems related to that, but I would make sure if I were you.

It’s just safer, makes it impossible for the chassis to be un-grounded while the machine is powered. Doesn’t really matter if you’re the only one using the machine and trust yourself to always remember to check if it’s pluged in.

I think this is rather unlikely to happen, but I should mention it:

There’s also some potential to create objectionable current, since neutral is already bonded to earth. And if the PE is pluged into a into a different outlet (or somehow else has a diffrent path to earth), you create parallel paths. There would be small diffreneces between those paths in resistance (and voltage). That means a tiny current can circulate between them, instead of going through the intended ground path.

Those currents should be small, simillar to what you already measured, but they create unpredictability (edit: worded this wrong, they don’t create unpredictability but rather are a sign of it, the unpredictability is caused by the closed loop to ground). If a real fault happens it could make the fault current split changing how a breaker responds. Also, if you have audio equipment, and the objectionable current path goes through it’s ground path you could get some noise/humming

I would say you’re right about it being just parasitic/capacitive current. And 4.1 uA and 43uA is thousands of times smaller than what would be dangerous, so that’s a no for the kill you part. If you’re very woried about the reading, you could add a 10k-100k Ohm resistor between the machine body and the ground while measuring, if voltage drops to near zero it’s fine.

If you decide to add a ground, please don’t do it with a second plug. Replace the cord with a 3-core one, attach PE to both the machine body and motor.

I remember an article (read it somewhere around 10 days ago) where something was used to access Signal messages of a defendant in a case regarding an attack (shooting I think) on a ICE concentration camp. Might be this, but I’m not sure.

I don’t think the linux foundation founds any other kernel besides linux (they found plenty of other stuff ofc). And Linux is hardly the only (production ready and stable) kernel around.

There’s the BSD family, that has the most popular kernels besides Linux. I think there’s also a couple more use-case specialised ones like Illumos. And there’s some experimental kernels, like Hurd (I think there’s a Hurd/GNU Ubuntu or Debian official distro around) or RedoxOs

I would have guessed Meta, Zuckerberg paid the most to get the bill in California passed.

Good to see a corpo lose, but this is hardly a hit to them. 99$ million is pocket change for John Deere, they had around 5$ billion dollars in net profit last year. That’s not even 2% procent.

If I took the avarage yearly salary in my country, minus taxes and cost of living expenses, and took 2% of that I probably couldn’t even buy a book.
