I don't like data brokering in general, but they definitely need to crack down on de-anonymization.

I would guess the only decent thing in it is the Tesla motors. Body is riddled with issues. Batteries as well. And all the electronics are proprietary and for the most part not repurposable.

I look forward to a picture sometime in the future of a field of stripped out swastikars waiting to be crushed.

The ones that are ok are not starting reactionary political groups.

Just like accessing direct messages or any other form of personal data, it's never actually about the children.

While I totally agree with you about package managers, I still run into a lot of apps that the only install option is a .deb downloaded from a webpage. Which is comparable to running a .exe on windows.

If you have a good handle on DC systems and inverters it's not that bad. Hardest part in my experience is figuring things out with your power company if you're staying on grid.

Also at least in the us, check your town and state for rebates and such. A lot of the time these scummy solar companies are double dipping, charging you 20k and also getting a couple k from the gov through solar programs.

Watched this the other day, it's a good watch if you like lgr and/or have an interest in DOS strategy games. Personally I'd like to see more games experiment with hybrid game styles like this one did.

Been on graphene for a few months now. Aside from a few apps that are over-reliant on the Google ecosystem, it's works fine. Would recommend. Battery is also a lot better with all the tracking and such removed.

Or better yet, connect them to a voice chat ai that just wastes their time until they hang up. I wonder if something like that exists...

Yeah I really wish there was some sort of other option.
