Those are fair points but why not use that land to expand cities and homes, especially with the population continuing to grow we will need places to house people and using the land to build only solar farms will eventually have to be either moved when things expand or have to be skipped over and move communities further from natural resources where most cities are built close by already. I don’t think solar will be the 1 technology every region should use to solve the power problem but for sunny desert areas like Nevada, Arizona, Texas etc solar is good. Northern states could other technologies for power generation not just focusing on solar in the end.

I feel like this could be a slippery slope for whoever is in charge and if not done right which is more than likely it’ll be like going back in time where anytime someone disagrees with something “you’re being hysterical” then you get institutionalized.

Tile is also another option but not sure how their policies are but relatively cheaper option and uses other people apps like airtag depending on location of course using Bluetooth.

No worries I forgot where I found this but it was my phone background for so long lol

Ya that’s true take em out young before they can make an impact probably why our public education system is shite too. Pretty much training us to work some 9 to 5 and sit and produce rather than be creative and think outside the box. Only when you have money and status can you actually learn something that helps you figure out the world and how it runs.

The sad truth let’s hope we can keep fighting back and maybe one day we can get some younger people in there that actually care about the people and privacy.

We’re free to do whatever we want as long as it’s what they want. Reminds of the Henry Ford saying you can have any color you want as long as it’s black or something like that.

It’s probably cuz they keep losing and aren’t able to convince enough people so of they group it altogether with another bill they can try to pass this without anyone knowing while trying to say they’re protecting us but taking away so much more. I just can’t believe they keep trying this and more and more people are starting to agree cuz the whole “I have nothing to hide so what does it matter” argument.

Ya it looked great too bad they never got to finish it. But there has to be a copy out there that’s mostly done. I wonder if it’ll ever see the light of day.

Mine has to be Demonik It looked pretty cool and I remember watching the movie to “promote” it, Grandma’s Boy.

I set something like this up for my dad but using kodi and some add-ons then connect it to real debrid. It’s like $20 USD for like 6 months. I was able to get him to cancel his cable since he was paying like a hundred dollars + his subscription services a month.

And I have it running on a firestick 4k so really inexpensive.

Yeah and they have to take them every other month VS making any decisions so they don’t lose them cuz how terrible would it be to make a decision that could possibly support any of the people who voted them into office.

With how many times they go on vacation a year, I’m lucky if I get to take a week off let alone months our of the year.

Yeah it makes it easier if something breaks or you don’t like it delete it and start again with something else.

Spin up some distros in a VM and give a go it’s fun to relearn how to use a computer again and having more control over what and how you want things done is amazing. I started playing with Linux and VMs in my teens and loved it and wanted to pursue a career in tech. Plus breaking things and fixing them is something I enjoy.

My old job was located out of the city and the times I worked there were no busses running (4am til whenever we were done) so I drove ~30 minutes to work, then work between 12 to 14 hours then drive back, which can take between 30 minutes to an hour if there was an accident. Then only being able to sleep like 3 hours a night then repeat the process was torture.

I’m so glad I was able to get a remote job where now I actually have time during my work days to do other things like actually go to gym everyday and be able to see my family more rather than just work and sleep.

Ya everytime I reset my phone or get a new one I head to xda to download Mixplorer.

Still rocking my Oneplus 7Pro but thinking I might want to upgrade to the new Google Pixel 8 when it comes out. I like stock Android and Google phones have been pretty nice from what I’ve seen and from the little amount of time I’ve used and played with them in stores. I like the ability to install a privacy focused rom like GrapheneOS too. But the only thing now holding me back from deciding on the Pixel 8 is the temperature reader like that’s something I know I won’t be using and I don’t want to be paying for that when I know I won’t be using that feature.

In the US Father’s Day and Juneteenth are the same weekend and some places are doing a 3 day weekend
