Yeah, did the Chinese invent a mechanism for rapid growth of 3D printed ladies?
Because since the change in policy was 10 years ago, your 23yo chinese factory worker better like his ladies very young.
But I would also be careful attributing all the selective abortions to the OCP.
Sex ratio in live births was still something like 110% or 115% in 2020, and looked stable.
India also has a sizable sex imbalance in live births, and never had a OCP.
I think Breeze already includes folder icons of all colours, you just have to find them with that icon picker.
All the girls that just do not exist because of selective abortions?
Put in a SSD and you'll be surprised how far it can get you.
My father is still using a 13 year old 14" Dell I gave up 6 years ago. He's even using it with windows 10, and having a SSD it works almost bearably well. They keyboard broke, and with the laptop not being Win11 compatible, he asked for an upgrade.
I got him a 6 year old Thinkpad, but I'll install Mint and give him a VM for the few SWs he needs Windows for.
But why would you need to delete your account? Just stop giving then any more money. Don't renew your subscription, and watch the movies when you like.
Or, you know.... 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
You sound like someone who's never used a HRM before. Chest straps are simply the HRM design that's been around the longest, and is the most accurate and responsive.
All chest straps have exactly the same limitations if they don't work for you or your use case I'm sorry to hear that. You bought the wrong product, and a different vendor would have made no difference at all.
Just wash it well and resell it on eBay, I'm sure you can recoup a good fraction of your loss.
By now also the LED based readings, which you get from either a wristwatch or an armband seem to have reached a decent level of performance, so that may serve you better.
I don't expose either to the internet. I either vpn to the router, or (for movies and music) do most of the syncing when I'm at home.
Oh, I was able to fill 128GB, but with 256GB I still have not managed. I was not even close after ~2 years, and then I had to erase everything when I installed /e/OS.
I do take photos and (rarely) videos, I just don't keep it all on my phone all the time, I regularly offload them to the home server (Immich).
Same with Series and Music. That stuff lives on the home server (Jellyfin) and can be downloaded to my phone as needed, with transcoding on the fly to a lower quality that's reasonable on the phone screen (for video) or simply to Opus (for music) to save space. My earbuds are decent but I can't tell the difference, so that's good.
Oh man, do you have a minute to talk about our Lord and saviour Gadgetbridge?
It's an open source, 100% local Android app that can be used to replace vendor app for certain wearables. And it works really well with my Garmin Instinct 2s.
You can keep your Fenix going, and cut out the American server.
At some point we should have a serious discussion about what does it even mean to be a European company, to put in focus a common idea, even if it has blurry edges and if it doesn't translate neatly in all situations.
We're discussing smartwatches, and Suunto gets shut down for being headquartered and operated from Finland BUT owned by a Chinese holding.
At the same time Garmin is a Swiss corporation, but run from Kansas, so that's not European.
And all all all smartwatches are made in China anyway. Maybe I should make a post.
I have used many such chest straps, and that applies to all of them.
And I'm sorry it doesn't work for you, but my Polar H10 works. Which is now a decade old because I can replace the battery, instead of having a built in rechargeable battery that makes the whole thing disposable...
About the alternatives to Google Maps...
Navigation apps are a dime a dozen nowadays, and it really all depends on what you want to get out of it.
In order:
Organic Maps
It uses OpenStreetMaps, which are waaay better than GMaps with finding the nice things of life that are not paid. Such as trails (if you're in hiking) finding a water fountain in an airport, a public toilet in a town... But no traffic info whatsoever. It's 100% offline.
Magic Earth
Very good driving and general Navigation app, very pricacy friendly, has crowsdourced traffic information, IIRC you can opt out of contributing if you want (they only keep your data for a couple hours anyway). It'll get you to where you want to have dinner, but won't help you choose where.
HereWeGo
A bit more tracking but still Dutch, so not too bad. Has crowdsourced traffic info, and integrates TripAdvisor scores for restaurants. It's the only alternative I've found with some degree of reviews.
