I remember it got cold enough during that winter polar vortex thing that the power company was asking people to keep their homes at like 60 so that we didn’t overload the power grid and gas pressure. I want to say that was like 2016 or something when I used to live there.

Yeah, fair enough.

In that case, could you put them in Minneapolis and run them in like January?

I used to live there, and during the winters it can get brutal. During one of those polar vortexes is the first time I ever saw an air temperature of negative 50 with a wind chill of negative 70.

I agree, and this is strictly because Google wants to kill forks like Graphene OS. Anybody who implements this is going to get their tab immediately closed on my browser and I’m never going back. I will have zero tolerance for this.

I was just thinking this exact same thing.

Keepassxc (linux, winblows, crapple) Keepassdx (AOSP, spydroid) Keepassium (SpIOS)

I use a combo of osmand and gps-coordinates.net. osmand generally does not do good with addresses, so I put the address into gps-coordinates.net and have osmand navigate me to the coords. I find if you’re looking for a business, you might be able to do it. But if you’re looking for residential addresses, you can generally forget about it with osmand.

The only way I would ever even consider this is if the firmware was open source and the software to interact with it was open source and it had no direct connection to any sort of network at all and required an external device that I could turn off or on to connect to it an external network. Oh, and the hardware would need to be open source as well.

I am using KeepassDX for passkeys

Yep, so everything here is needing Google Play services. So in other words, it’s total bullshit.

It may not be quite as friendly, but PayPal or your bank can also freeze your account at any time and nobody can freeze your Monero address at any time for any reason.

So you can pick sovereignty or convenience. With Monero you have full sovereignty, but with the banking system you have a lot more convenience.

A wallet is nothing more than a piece of software that understands the Monero network and the way it works and allows you to store Monero. Look at getmonero.org for a list of recommended wallets.

Buying a product is actually rather easy. You’re just presented with an address and an amount and you can copy and paste that address and amount into your wallet and click send. You are also presented with a QR code where you can scan it and a lot of websites even present a open with wallet button that you click and it will auto fill in the address and amount necessary.

It’s a donation platform that uses Monero, and therefore, even if, for some reason, they took down your page, you still could receive money.

requires RCS, which cannot be used by anything other than Google messages and not on AOSP, so therefore useless.

Fedinsfw ftw

Brothers in arms mate. I use FOSS whenever absolutely possible. I hear about a new type of service, and my first criteria before evaluating it is, can I run it as FOSS? If the answer to that question is no, then I immediately reject that new service until I can use it in a FOSS manner. Do not pass go. Do not collect one Monero.

What is reddit?

This is actually something I’ve been thinking for a while that we would have the clear net would be very limited in terms of what you could see and do. And then you would have things like Tor and I2P where everybody else would go for the free flow of information. Anyone who’s too technically illiterate to use the dark web is going to have a very, very limited experience.

Exactly, and they should be held to the same standard too. If you’re going to laugh at one side for saying something hypocritical, you should also laugh at the other side for saying something hypocritical as well.

There is no red, there is no blue, there is the state, and it hates you.
