Is this just lack of dedicated GPU on mobile?

Didn’t know that was a cover, but also recently found out that Ghost of Tom Joad was a cover too. That’s the one I came to post.

This is why I avoid Bluesky

Zelda BOTW knows when you’re climbing a big cliff and it’s more likely to rain.

My wife leaves lights on all the time. I gave up and just put in smart plugs and lights so I don’t have to get up and turn them off.

Typically I prefer plugs, but with things like a nightstand lamp that has USB charging ports on it, I don’t want to turn off the whole device, so I use smart light bulbs.

The only smart appliance that I’ve found useful is the oven. If my wife leaves it on I can turn it off from my phone.

Is it because Netgear is a “US” company? Meaning they are on the US stock exchange, have corporate offices in the US, and manufacture everything in Asia?

Yeah, it’s not a trivial problem to solve either, especially if platforms censor mentions of decentralized alternatives.

However, it’s hard for the oligarchs to censor the fact that an organization like EFF exists, and hopefully someone clicks on one of their posts and reads something on their blog about decentralized alternatives.

There are a lot of tricks for peeling boiled eggs, but fresh eggs from a chicken coop in your yard are a different ballgame.

Yeah, he seems to think that the over-moderation is a good thing, and Cindy tries to convince him that censorship is bad and the answer instead is more like what you can do with the Fediverse, you can move servers if you don’t like how the server is moderated and who they federate with, but people are free to say what they want in their servers.

I think it’s for rough terrain, like carrying packs of supplies through war zones. So not full climbing but at least able to step over rocks and debris.

The real question is, how can the rich make money off of changing this? As soon as someone figures that out, I’m sure it will change.

What is it about Graphene that disqualifies it? Is it just the requirement to have Google hardware? Or is AOSP not considered Linux even though it uses the Linux kernel? Or something about proprietary drivers?

Both IBM and Oracle I haven’t really worked with because they’re heavily used by massive companies. We had an Oracle database when I was in banking that was because we were self hosting a loan accounting system. IBM does backend data processing stuff for massive companies like American Express and Bank of America. All of the smaller shops I’ve worked in have built things on Microsoft’s stack.

It’s more that local authorities are offering incentives to big tech to bring in those data centers, ostensibly because they think it will benefit the area, but more likely because it is benefitting the local authorities personally through kickbacks or campaign donations.

This is the first I’m hearing of Aurora, that seems promising. I’m guessing you’d use FDroid for anything that is available there but use Aurora for anything that is only on the Play Store?

That Democrats were aborting babies after they are born, and that immigrants are eating our cats and dogs.

Thoughts on pros and cons? Do you still install apps through the play store or are you using FDroid?
