Calling GrapheneOS a “basic thing” when 99% of people will never touch their OS is a bit of a stretch.
Redex@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Turkiye thwarts delivery of 1,300 booby-trapped pagers heading to Lebanon91·3 days agoPossible, but I wouldn’t really see this as evidence of that in particular. Israel has been conducting subversive actions against Hamas and the Houthis for a long time and something like that pager attack was likely being planned far ahead.
Why did I not know this, I’ve been suffering for so long. Makes it 50 times better. If only the swipe worked better now.
I like the FUTO keyboard, but it’s just so annoying that it doesn’t support multi-lingual typing and the swipe just isn’t as good as Gboard.

It looks pretty promising. Had to modify it a bit to fit my S21 with a case, but it fits like a glove. Just have to print the last few components.
Redex@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Could wastewater plants simply heat up water past 500C to decompose all chemicals and output clean water?1·6 days agoOk yeah the second part makes sense, but for the first part I was calculating it based on hand washing, dishwashers would be way less since you have to split the usage per person in the household, which holds for hand washing as well. Idk for other people but when I’m alone I use the dishwasher probably every 3-4th day and for handwashing I’d say 20L is realistic, double it maybe but still isn’t that much.
Redex@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s dominance on search is declining – for the first time ever!English1·7 days agoLate reply but: Ecosia lets you choose between Google or Bing, but I guess that isn’t really your point. The main thing is it anonymises your searches, so you do get some additional privacy. Additionally, the hope is that one day they build their own index. They just recently announced that they’re gonna start one with Qwant.
Redex@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s dominance on search is declining – for the first time ever!English1·7 days agoLate to reply but: from what I heard, Kagi is really good at search (at least when it comes to filters and the such, not sure about base results), but it’s paid so that’s a disadvantage (and also a plus since you don’t get ads nor is your data being sold off), and it’s US based. DuckDuckGo also uses Bing but I guess they have more sources than just them. In my experience it’s about the same, maybe a bit better on DDG, both have shebangs (! for DDG, # for Ecosia) which I find extremely useful.
Redex@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN BusinessEnglish72·7 days agoI disagree. There are many situations where a truck is better suited for transport than a train. The US already has a pretty large freight train network. I agree that there definitely should be more investment in rail as well, but there’s no reason for both not to exist at the same time.
Redex@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Kawasaki is developing a robot to be ridden like a horse - Asia TimesEnglish26·7 days agoThis is a concept for a hydrogen powered robot for 2050. There is no shot they’re developing this and even if they are it’s literally a quarter of a century from now. This is just marketing BS.
Redex@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Could wastewater plants simply heat up water past 500C to decompose all chemicals and output clean water?3·7 days agoYeah but it says “at home” and gives recommendations how you personally can reduce water consumption (like more efficient taps or showerheads), which makes me believe that it’s not your entire direct and indirect water consumption (which realistically isn’t even relevant for the argument since the water used for crops isn’t gonna be getting treated anyway)
Redex@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Could wastewater plants simply heat up water past 500C to decompose all chemicals and output clean water?71·8 days agoHow the hell do people use that much water? Are they including water consumption needed for the products we use or? Let’s say a flush is 8L and the average person flushes 5 times a day, that’s 40L. The average person needs about 2L of water a day. Let’s say an average shower is 100L. Cleaning dishes at worst is probably like 20L per person without a dishwasher. That’s like 160L of water per day and I feel like most of those were over-estimates. How did they get to that number?
Redex@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s dominance on search is declining – for the first time ever!English95·10 days agoYeah but don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Among other things, they just recently announced that they’re starting to build an alternative index with Qwant.
2 but thicker and a bit different handle.
Redex@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Sales of Hard Drives for the End of the World Boom Under TrumpEnglish8·14 days agoYeah and it’s also probably pretty small runs, so that’d make it even more expensive. I feel like it’s a fair price for what it is, would never buy it myself tho.
Whilst I get your point, their point is still valid in the sense that you just can’t extract that energy from gasoline in a more efficient manner than just burning it. For practical purposes, gasoline truly is that much less energy dense.
I know multiple friends that easily eat that and myb 20-50% more on a regular and are some of the most fit people I know. Ofc they exercise a fuckton and only eating food like this would probably lead to cardiac arrest, but my point is it depends on the person.
Sometimes it’s fun to hop onto the hype train and experience a cultural moment, or get something that’s trending. Buying Helldivers 2 after 4 or more years when the sales get big enough won’t let you experience the cultural hit it was when it hit. I’m not saying you should always follow the herd, heck, the vast majority of the time I don’t, but sometimes it can be fun.
Look at these cute bastards, how can you not love them.
