Using the rather fittingly named Dracula theme. Fantastic darkmode theme for qbittorrent

Phone tech is really boring. Almost everything looks the same, they are all x% faster than last year’s model which still does everything perfectly fine. In terms of hardware, the phone has kinda reached the optimal place.

I’m not the target audience for bleeding edge phones though. I take photos, listen to music(using Bluetooth and wired headphones), browse the web and message people. I don’t really play games or use it for work.

By far the most interesting thing to me is foldable phones. I really like the idea of a flip phone, but I don’t think it would be too happy sitting in my sweaty pocket while I cycle.

Ohhh can I partake in this.

Fluoride contamination, consequences and removal techniques in water - https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlehtml/2022/va/d1va00039j

See look at the scary headline, and the first sentence - “Fluoride contamination has created a drinking water crisis globally.”

Only downside to this paper… it kinda mentions how great it is for humans to consume low levels of flouride.

Yes, where it can be moved and stored or potentially used in other applications.

Wasnt a difficult search.

And yes, more money(realistically probably a lot more) is needed to refine and improve the technology. No it isnt going to end climate change, but it is a small part of what is needed.

They keep throwing around threats of leaving.

Do it… do it you absolute chickens.

I love Firefox, it is my desktop and android go to, but fuck apples bullshit.

Look into Orion browser, it allows you to use chrome and Firefox extensions on iOS, it does mean no easy bookmark or tab sharing, but small price to pay to be able to use the net again properly.

I used to use it a lot. I still have some nice headphones that I like using, but they have become 2nd choice. I have bone conducting headphones that I use daily.

I prefer them, because I can still communicate, ride the bike, and never have to pause the music. But if I have to do anything loud, the wired buds are coming out to plug the ear holes.

Yea great, you linked to something that hasnt been updated in a long time, and doesnt work with Safari 13 or newer(latest version is 17.1).

This link - https://safari-extensions.apple.com/details/?id=com.el1t.uBlock-3NU33NW2M3 - For ublock for safari is dead.

Like I said, ublock is not available and hasn’t been for a long time now.

Ublock is not available on Safari, and hasnt been for a long time.

They removed the dislike button. That improved the platform right?

I dont think removing the screen complete is the right way around this. Having something that can display maps and more information is good. But it should have never become the only thing.

You need buttons and easy access to functions that are always available in easy to remember places. So that you aren’t spending attention away from the road when you want to change the fan control.

Fuck this bullshit touchscreen only nonsense, actual physical buttons are superior in a car.

It is the single biggest reason why I havent thought about getting an iphone. I have an ipad and it is alright, but I have gone back to using the significantly worse specced Fire tablet, so I don’t have to use Safari.

This is why I am unfortunately back on windows. I use a couple programs everyday, and unfortunately they do not run on Linux. And there is not a usable alternative either.

I was rebooting to windows, doing what I had to, and then rebooting again. But it is just so disruptive and not user friendly.
