Ok thanks did not know that. But let's compare this against a better approach.

Energy use for recycling

Vs reuse

Standardized bottle and jar sizes with pant ( not sure about en word, you pay a bit extra and get it back when returned) that instead of being melted down get a cleaned and reused.

Sweden had a good system that's still works but not as good as it use to ( some types was removed and different sizes in use) but still have it for 33 cl bottles, as an example.

Haven't tried myself but looking at a Mac for next time. Seems to be great experience and hardware integration somewhat up to speed. GPU issue is tackled a while back. https://asahilinux.org/ https://macdailynews.com/2022/04/26/asahi-linux-on-an-apple-m1-mac-mini-is-unbelievably-fast/ the fedora version was launched a few months back so I assume there is a lot to do. But active development and usable

Plastic recycling is the biggest scam of them all, they ship tonnes of it all over the world. PET gets "recycled" once. Ship around the world, Get some fleece clothes back which can't be recycled.

For non plastic:

Most my packaging materials are going in the fireplace. That way a get energy back.

instead of A, clean it with hot water using energy B, getting in my car driving to recycle center using energy C, have it shipped to a recycling plant,other side of the world or whatever. Using energy from oil.

Material for paper can be made co2 neutral. Organic waste , sure just compost it.

Metalls yea here we have something we're it's great to recycle.

Glass. Meh just heated sand. But old glass needs to be disposed of somewhere so yea it is a point in recycle it.

What should be done is reuse and not using materials I can't recover energy at home from. That's a heck of a lot better.

Glass bottles that gets refilled is a great example. Other good ideas is to repair instead of throwing a way stuff. True for everything from cars to laptops.

From a capitalists view recycling means (to a certain extent) free labour, raw materials and transports.

Reusing and repairs means less sales.

Recycling is for most parts a scam

https://www.beeper.com/faq#how-does-beeper-connect-to-encrypted-chat-networks-like-imessage-signal-whatsapp

So yea a bit of trust put in beeper. Matrix bridge and self host is as I said better.

This is easy. For services that's not so good to start with , like SMS , WhatsApp etc.

For sensitive stuff i use signal with a fake number. Or other channels.

[–] LoveSausage@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

My way around the issue with the app and its collection is :

  1. Install in a separate profile with empty everything. (So they get an empty contact list)
  2. Install beeper in a different profil and connect WhatsApp to beeper.
  3. Remove all permissions from WhatsApp. There if I need to reconnect sometime.

Oh and using fake number is also a good idea. And yes not as good as selfhosting I know. Signal is an option if you can get them to switch. Telegram is crap.

I had an old windows AME install on a separate drive I forgot about. Updated grub in peppermint (Debian) voila all of the sudden my windows was added , no fuss at all. Simple nowadays

Lineage does not have any special privacy features besides not having gapps. You can use Microg for a balance between privacy and convenience.

Use aurora store and don't login with any account. You will need the lineage for microg version or root to get it working

Just happen to see this. Sounds interesting. Anyone used it? I don't like the salepitch but more info on GitHub. https://github.com/Gedsh/InviZible

What would the downside beside speed be in comparison with paid VPN and no root?

Just a thought in relation to the debate of payment models used in Foss an closed code projects that got going with the sync app (and elsewhere).

So I donate now and then to projects I like. I realised it was a while since last time.

Ok so who did I sent to last time? How did I send it , it was like 2 different crypto some PayPal and something else I think?

I will have to check every single project used to see how to send , how to separate donations and actually remember everything.

What would be ideal , check in on F-droid , select from my list of installed apps , add a few non-android projects I also want to donate to. Selecta sum , single or recurring. Pay one sum and have it split between projects.

Seems like there would be plenty of incentive for this to be made to reality ?

Perhaps some other solution out there I haven't heard of?

router choice 4g (lemmygrad.ml)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by LoveSausage@lemmygrad.ml to c/technology@lemmy.world
 

My current router is a teltonika 950 . I bought it for use in a campervan but sold the van and kept the router. I have an extension to use one of the antennas outside my window.

4g coverage is spotty , forget about 5g.

loved and praised this router until they decided after 2 years to not update it. Never buying a teltonika again.

I have proton VPN.

I would like to have a setup with 3 different settings . One guest net with VPN and ad/malware block . 2 private with same settings. And 3 non VPN for use for work ( has it own VPN) .

Looking at GL inet routers. A good choice? Can I combine my current T950 with one of the cheaper glinet ones? Thing is I live in a country that it's illegal to get a anon SIM card so I think keeping the teltonika and connect a glinet one to it? Ideas?

 
 
 
 

So I have an extra pixel phone to use exclusively for the car. I've read somewhere that it can be done as an graphene build including AA. However does it really work? Bonus question . Wife is in love with Spotify , can it be used with any other app that does not report everything? Tested it out on rooted stock but blocking different trackers and endpoints crashes the app. Google got location from it in 2 sec

 

So Cloudflare MtM for websites which logs ip . Bad

But doesn't everyone log IP ? If not cloudflare then the hosting company? Aren't this a client side issue ? I.e use a VPN.

What would be an option to cloudflare? Existence of any hosting provider that is a good option? Looking at moving to githubpages once my paid hosting expires in a year

How will Wei and cloudflare happen/do/enforce?
