They need to raise gas tax to offset EVs, ergo, higher gas prices!

I'm very very lazy. Id rather have the OEM supply their own model than to get a 3rd party.

Then again I'm one of those heathens who pay for OEM camera batteries rather than wasabi power (which are amazing in their own right)

If you're okay being in the EU, I use Ionos. €1 a month with a IPv4 address and no contract.

On the US side, Oracle has a free tier for 2 arm CPUs. You could load balance between them, but they're still kinda slow.

Either of these you can test for very low costs and see what you enjoy.

I'm using Outline. Is that safe? I've never tested it against a hostile nation though.

I often skip first gens hence why I got a 12th gen and then upgraded it to a 7040 series. Super happy with the battery life and performance.

I may have missed it, but as of now, framework doesn't offer the controller board by itself just yet.

Knowing them, it's probably not too far away.

Oh boy, German internet prices would like a word.

All jokes aside, it's gotten way better the past few years.

But I'm still paying for texts. Imagine that.

But do you sanitize and vet your carrier data?

Triangulation using cellphone towers is not unheard of and they can subpoena it.

Then again, a national state actor going against a private entity is rare and the private entity will often lose.

Same thing with my home cameras, I use unifi because it's easy and the data is stored locally. That way the police can't subpoena Amazon or any of the big companies for their cloud data.

I'm being very facetious. Privacy is a losing battle. You fuckup once, you negate a lot of hard work.

You can upgrade literally everything on it.

They just released a new high refresh rate screen for the 13 inch. I'm seeing if it's worth buying.

Wonder if the old display can be used as a portable monitor? I would assume so.

I got an Intel 12th Gen laptop but wanted an AMD 7040 gen CPU. I was going to live overseas for a while so shipping laptops via air is questionable.

So I bought the 12th gen and then a year later upgraded the main board. No issues other than VeraCrypt being annoyed.

No shit. I'll need to look into this. Thanks for learning me up.

Optional how so? It's a rotating key. Unless you have all of those keys to export into your computer, then you'll be stuck with the current synced key.
