@starbreaker@mastodon.sdf.org it does. But you know, you start small, is a marathon not a sprint

r/waterniggas got quarantined by the #reddit admins. Drinking water is shocking and possibly offensive

This day started off with a headache, and was downhill from there.

Stay hydrated.

@HerraBRE Sorry to hear that. You daughter is already testing you!

@starbreaker@mastodon.sdf.org mesh wifi network is a thing, in some areas coverage is actually pretty good

@HerraBRE
This goes both for big and small solutions alike. The lack of a shared way of measuring the environmental impact is problematic but I'm not sure is solvable: factors are a lot, and hard to reduce in simple formulas.

Odum gave it a good shot, ending up with a system which is interesting but IMHO not usable.

Measuring carbon footprint in some other way, such as the direct impact, is oblivious to the indirect effects... it's a topic I'm thinking a lot lately, and in some sectors (I mainly know the agricultural one) some standards are being developed which may be a good start.

@GreenandBlack@sunbeam.city @switchingsocial@mastodon.at

Thanks, is new but seems promising, I'll keep an eye on it!

@dadegroot Dominion fan here. Looks gorgeous!

Yes, this assange image strucked me as familiar... #freeassange

@dev awesome to see project is still on! Thanks!

@smbsy
Seems cool, thanks for sharing

@eshton
What do you mean? I meant extinction of whole species

@eshton
Can't you just think of something worth crying for, for the sake of it?
Like the extinction of the tarpian, or the caspian tiger. Or, idk, the global loss of soil, or all the amazing people in the history of mankind who are almost forgot(I'm sure you know some in your field)... and then you can also stop crying 'cause we still have many species and we can save then, we still have soil and we can increase it, and those people are almost forgot, but not quite yet

@prismo we are humans, we screw up from time to time, sometimes in a spectacular way and that's ok.

I'm sure the community will support you in this moment.

Looking forward to the extended post.

@dazinism no worries, I found some nice stuff and bad stuff in there, mostly it was the only one that popped into my mind with a POC =D

@js290 @dazinism @rynras

I see.

I think he is still useful now, I know people who are getting more interested into scientific matters, or that really digged the Cosmos episode on climate change and understood more about it thanks to him.

If for you talking favorably of science (in your words evangelizing of scientism) is something that is not compatible with being useful, I guess he is not so by your definition.

@js290
Can you define "useful" in this context?

@dazinism @rynras

@dazinism

What was the episode? I just listened to a few of them, not really a fan.

You are welcome, it was a nice find for me too.

Basically it leverages the work profiles on android, which is something I didn't know about. It's separated from the rest of the OS, not able by default of accessing the main profile's data, and under the control of an administration (shelter, here).

Another nice use case is if you want two profiles, for example two whatsapp profiles, or whatever, in the same device, as some apps are so retarded they think multiaccount is just for morally devious people who do not deserve the usage of their precious software.

@starbreaker@mastodon.sdf.org
thanks for your suggestion, that is what I would do but unfortunately (or, luckily) I'm not an employee, I need it to sell stuff online and to share info with other contractors, so no one is going to pay me for a monthly plan, another mobile and so on =D

What I ended up doing is installing #shelter, downloading #whatsapp with #YalpStore, cloning it into shelter and removing it from my main system.
I am all too aware that it's not a full #VM, I'm just putting some wire net around it, not a full box, but it **shouldn't** be able to access my data.
It has its own contact book and gallery to refer to, and I can avoid giving it many permissions.

By using shelter I can also freeze it, so that I stop it from running on the background no matter what, which is good.

It still sucks, but I couldn't come out with something better.

I guess sooner or later I'll have to go with a second device though, it's mostly the phone bill that bugs me.

A shout for the nice people who helped me:
