I think there is a reason, why crank or hub located motors are the norm now.

I think you should add a bigger "Download" button to your download documentation (i.e. here: http://www.pibakery.org/docs/install-mac.html).

It's good to have the explanation for beginners, but for people that just want to get the software (and kind of know what they're doing) there should be a bigger button in addition to the text link. :)

I remember the time from an old job, were most employees did nearly nothing on Friday afternoons. They were burned out from the week and waited until the time was up to finally go home.

I work 4-day weeks for a few years now and I can say that I don't want to change this anytime soon. Having more time for friends and family makes me much more happy than a bit more money. And of course, I feel much more relaxed on Mondays since every weekend is a "long weekend".

If we educate people that privacy is a privilege, they might not do things (sharing personal information) in the future, that they would otherwise do.

And i'm not talking about world-changing stuff here, it's the little things, like sharing very personal information on social media, like my party picture example from above.

The problem is, most people don't understand the implecations of their doing. And that's why we, who understand those issues, need to educate them.

Another thing is, social media is sold as this warm and cozy place where all your friends are. But in reality, you share your information with big corporations that want to make money (which is totally fine, they provide a service).

People just need to understand, that social media is not a private and social environemnt, it's a tool, provided by a company that has (in most ways) no interest in your personal privacy.

The fight for privacy is not for us, it's for generations to come.

Some people go crazy and share everything, but more and more people share less[^1] and if they share something, it's only something that holds together their "clean image".

If you'd tell them, that you can take a picture of a random person and search that picture out of a pool of people and get their contact info (as a private company / random programmer with enough data), they won't believe you or tell you that something like this is only possible in movies.

Even today it's no problem to analyze the Facebook picture of some random person and calculate a chance of that person being an alcoholic in X years based on the number of party pictures they share.

Before sharing personal information online, people should not ask themselves what could be done with that data now, but what is possible with that data in the future.

If Facebook is going out of business (just as a thought), their data has a lot of value. Don't think that they will delete everything. It will go to the highest bidder!

Can i use it as a basic Mail.app/Thunderbird alternative, without leaking my personal data to your cloud?
