Well yeah. They'd care if it lead to impeachment or something though.

Absolutely hate cars with those stupid big screens on the console. Give me buttons and knobs any day.

I loved minidisc. It was just too late to the game with mp3s hot on its heels.

I know, crazy right? The thing must be 20 years old now. Shows how versatile it is.

Yep. And it doesn't need to be charged every night like apple watch or similar.

Am looking for a new one if you have any recommendations.

Came to say this. Fax just refuses to die.

Thats not what they're using it for. This is an alternative to pumped hydro or big lithium arrays.

The article mentions using greener things like waste and soil.

And if you were using redundant mine shaft thats greener than building new structures.

Recycling lithium ion batteries isn't easy either though, and you might not have the geography for hydro.

Love clever and simple stuff like this.

I'm taking a more relaxed approach. As long as its not owned by a US tech giant I'm fine with it.

E.g. Signal is US but is nonprofit and open source, GrapheneOS is Canadian.

I was thinking they'd be the easiest to reconcile - Christianity is just Judaism with extra steps. Islam is very similar to Judaism even though no-one talks about it. Jesus exists in all three but they have different takes on him.

How do you get apps and updates?

I get apps from Aurora and Obtanium (github, fdroid etc). I'll download the odd app from Play store where it won't work otherwise.

I have Aurora and Obtanium set up to do automatic updates. Play store is set to manual.

My concern is primarily that I am relying on Aurora when that could be a risk. I think I read somewhere that the GrapheneOS team prefer Play store to Aurora - something to do with its anonymous logins.

Are there any other risks?

Maybe I'm being stupid but where are the notification settings?

I cant see anything in the app, in droid settings it looks as though the permissions haven't been requested?

Am on GrapheneOS if that helps.
