Sounds like she's rarely out never noticed you use it either... Which makes it interesting both because of the uncommon UI and workflow, and she has not had regular observations to learn from.

For those of us that have operated both it's a non issue.

But think of how you'd go about it with zero knowledge. I bet most would try dialling the number without lifting the receiver.

Hey, that's exactly the computers I was talking about. The IIe, and students playing where in the world is Carmen Santiago, logo writer etc.

The energy required to produce the solar panels is huge, is even go as far to say worse than concrete.

The panels are usually embedded in a resin, or urethane or some plastic like material, extra thick too, to withstand the traffic over it.

All that combined with the reduced energy yeild from the compromised use situation... It's not great.

Solar on rooftops has far higher output per area. This better return somewhat offsets the energy that goes into them.

I'm actually really trying to play devils advocate... But I'm struggling.

I came to get away from the main stream socials.

I came to minimise my farmed data footprint.

I came to find other like minded people.

These principals alone are shared by quite a few I guess.

If we end up hooked up to the machine we were trying to escape from then coming here was near pointless.

Hard disagree. Android user here. The number of times if had to show iPhone users how to use their shit is annoying.

Workflows agree no better on a fruit phone than an Android device half the price.

Great minds think alike?

Administering a school where there were no computer mice (but were computers)... Is there a picture for that?

404... Beer not found.

The act of making them so that can be ridden on significantly reduces their output.

Combined with laying flat instead of at a favourable angle... These solar paths and roadways are a terrible idea.... And I'm someone who loves solar.

EEVblog on YouTube goes into good detail about this.

Cats are great pets and companions.

That's how we differ.

You're focusing on being radical and using emotional buzz words (death of children), where as I'm actually interested in changing the status quo with regard to cars, and have been effective in doing so at a local level without making an ass of myself.

I share what I've achieved when practical and many good discussions come of it.

What have you done today?

Yell at the internet about 'trucks' that very few actually use and get a few pats in the back for it?

The difference is, fuck cars is an ineffective and damaging community when it comes to influencing positive change, and you think you're part of the solution when in fact your part of the problem.

People are never going to take a community like that seriously while so critical and full of negativity.
