  • I use debian based distro. Level of over 9000

  • Got the wife a grapheneOS pixel, she likes it and the adblock as well. But can't let go of Facebook , Spotify ,WhatsApp etc. Small steps

  • I think the puppet regime In Ukraine should be negotiating for peace. Do you think Ukraine should just continue to follow their masters strings, until everyone is dead?

  • Nah spent a year in India , best Indian spicy food ? London ;) I miss the green chillies as snacks though

  • Counter arguments has a premise of an argument.

    But no Im stupid please elaborate.

  • Can confirm that a lot of good banking apps and other secure verification app works on graphene without Google. Some shittier banking apps still need the sandboxed Google play.

  • I don't trust Lemmy world since they are fascist cuddling neo libs that block any that are not pro NATO

  • He have stepped down since march this year I believe. No need to trust , verify. He was a bit of a removed but that doesn't mean GOS is not trustworthy. Sandboxing on a separate profile ( truee separate which you only get on grapheneOS) combine with VPN , blocklist (VPN or DNS) and no gapps . Not that much. Especially if you run enterprise versions of apps. In EU it wouldn't be legal.

    Depends on your leverage here. But best to change school policy here. In many countries it would not be possible to force people to install WhatsApp or other programs on personal devices. Otherwise they have their own software or use email. Another thing if they provide the hardware.

  • Best option, use graphene and keep the propriety stuff on a separate user profile.

    There is also a WhatsApp to go on F-droid . So you need an account then you can use the webapp on the phone.

    But yea stuff like that sucks.

  • I WFH on permanent contract for one of the big ones. I never been at the office, I was recruited online, had my interview online and gotten about 4 months of training online , some more to come.

    It works fine. I am more productive than in an office.

    Equipment needed are provided and if I need anything I can just order it without much hassle, on the company dime of course. Knowledge is shared between everyone and all information is written down somewhere.

    So why are they doing it this way? They get a bunch of well educated people from all over the world. Great pay for the job, not so good if I had an employment in my field.

    But everyone are happy since they can WFH. The company get some really good people. At the same time they are forcing some back to the office in other areas. Because well realestate , but also because they didn't have the organisation in place before the pandemic.

    The surveillance part is really not a hard thing for them to do, we are measured on all kind of things. I assume it's harder for them to do this in other areas.

    And those are the ones they force back to the office and at tha same time weed out the ones who won't accept it.

    Never going to the office again , I almost would accept a sale position over that.

  • Earth have about the same land for quite some time. Same can't be said about forest areas.

  • I would like to be proven wrong but to me it just sounds like a sales pitch from some techbros. I believe it when I see it. "A better climate strategy, Jacobson says, would be to simply spend the money on building out renewable energy faster, so that coal and natural gas electricity plants can be retired more quickly"

  • I guess trees aren't as profitable... Only places these things make sense is where you have an abundance of energy to use. Such as Iceland where they using geothermal
