Or simply install a physical button.

Stackoverflow gets quickly steamrolled by AI.

We’re not 100% there yet, but the writing on the wall is there. Just my opinion, of course.

I agree that it’s not great that telemetry is shared, but to say that you buy it “just” to share your data is an exaggeration. I am sure you do useful things with it.

That said, yes, it is bloated and I wish you could really turn off all telemetry. Am totally with you on that.

The way mobile providers charge. The likes of Vodafone, any random Telecom, T-Mobile and so forth. It’s a huge scam, bordering theft sometimes. Want samples? Here we go:

“Your credit expires in x days. Better recharge now to not lose it!” (Banks should start doing this /s)

“Your credit has expired. Better give us more money within our generous deadline, or else we are forced to delete your number. We love you.”

“Your data has expired. We now charge you a horrendous amount every minute, because we are too greedy to warn you in time. For technical reasons we also cannot stop you from using data after your allowance has been used. Fortunately you still have credit, huh?”

“Your data expires today. We don’t insult your intelligence by telling you when. Surely you remember when you bought the package, right? It’s not hard to count 24 hours. We also do not send any SMS anymore to save the environment.”

“Your data has expired. You need data to buy a new bundle. Our app charges data for our convenience.”

“Social media data only works for WhatsApp, but not for Signal. But who uses Signal anyways?”

“Use our customer friendly support chat. Conveniently it uses data. ‘Hello, I am your smart bot speaking. How can I help you? I might understand you if you type one of the three questions I have been programmed to answer. Do you want to know more about our products?’”

Edit: added point 2, minor corrections for clarity

Endless Sky found it’s way onto my device recently.

OpenStreetMap (OSM)

OpenStreetMap is a free, editable map of the world, created and maintained by millions of volunteers. It includes data about roads, buildings, shops, points of interest, and more.

Many of the benefits of Google Maps without all its spying and advertising.

Bonus in line with this: OsmAnd.

Edit: a more lightweight, but fully FOSS OSM client: Organic Maps. Blazing fast and under constant development.

Edit 2: Here is a Lemmy community dedicated to OsmAnd: [email protected]

Everything by Bart Bonte.

This is either a work of singular art or complete and utter madness.

There’s only one course of action: will try no matter the cost.

Also, thank you for using the metric system, fellow global citizen.

I envy you for having been there.
