Producing an EV battery can generate around 2.5 to 16 metric tons of CO2. 1 Manufacturing a gasoline car produces about 6 tons of CO2 and over its lifetime, an ICE vehicle emits around 35.9 tons of CO2 from fuel production to usage. 2

I believe there is already plans in the timeline to bring Tumblr to the fediverse.

I opened my first Gmail account during the private beta (2004). It’s not my daily driver account, but I still use it for government stuff like taxes and healthcare. It kinda blows my mind that it’s 20 years old.

Where’s the lie?

I feel like I’m bracing for impact. I think it’s gonna get a lot fucking worse.

30 miles south of LA, my choices were:

• $65 for DSL through AT&T
• $75 for Cable Internet (That they called Fiber) through Charter’s ancient network
• $30 for TMo 5G when added to my family plan.

The TMo had more than double the speed. We need competition in this space. All the legacy companies are fat, slow, and lazy.

Their static website hosting is probably the best in the business. We seriously need some competition though.

I used to be a Janitor, and now I’m a web designer. I still go to trash businesses and make them all pretty.

I’m a man and I… I don’t know…

future firmware updates are expected to include encryption features

IDK is the average TikTok user really installing VPN software on it’s phone?

Yes. From the article a, 2500% spike in VPN usage.

TikTok is not a platform for political discussion

Yet, despite that, it’s working as one. Effectively.

Banning websites in the year 2024 is never going to work. The average user is more savvy than the average lawmaker.

There was this idea that instead of having the web powered by large data companies like Google and Meta you could keep all your information in the blockchain. It was an attempt to “take back control”.

However, most of the proponents kinda forgot that the web is already decentralized and only portions are controlled by Meta and Google.

Then, of course, we had the grifters come in.

The whole thing was built on a misunderstanding of how the web actually works.

I’ve never let go of bookmarks and RSS. Still the best systems around.

I like to eat green beans like french fries. I’ll even dip them and catch up and/or barbecue sauce.

Nothing on my plate can touch, especially if they are different textures. Textures are almost as important as flavor. This is the main reason why I don’t eat zucchini.

When I really like something I want it the same way every time. Don’t try to dress it up with new stuff, it was perfect before, I want it the same way.

That’s one of my favorite things. I started doing that one hot summer and now I do all year round. Cold chocolate is the best chocolate.

I spend a lot of time with YouTube running while I work. For reading the news I have RSS feeds that I’ve accumulated from sites that I like. I spend a lot of time on Lemmy and Mastodon.

I don’t use search as much anymore, cause often when I’m searching for a solution my results are more accurate using Chat GPT (and more and more local LLMs).

The internet is changing and that’s okay.

That’s always weird. Like, do we hate the Easter Bunny too?

I went the seed box route and I’ll never go back. It’s faster and I don’t even need a stable connection. Start the download from my phone and it’s waiting for me when I get home.
