  • I seriously wish I had a phone that was just a linux machine. That can already do all the things I want it to do. Then I’d have a brick phone with eternal battery life for that single functionality.

    But as it is that would not have mobile internet, which is pretty much a must. So you’d have to get a sim card for that, and then you might as well have the phone functionality on that device. And you just (re)invented Linux phones.

    My point is that I hate what phones are and I wish it was just a small touchscreen PC without all this locked down bullshit.

    The GPL states that its text must not be modified. I take this to mean (though I’m no lawboy), that if you wanted to have a license with the same terms plus some changes (the butthole rule), you would have to rewrite the whole thing. It would not nearly be a “GPL license”.

    This is very important nitpicking I’m doing here, okay?

    The effects of microplastics(/nanoplastics) on humans aren’t fully understood yet. We mostly know that they are now everywhere, and are being linked to a number of health issues.

    This article suggests that boiling hard tapwater can reduce the intake of microplastics via the formed “scale” trapping the plastic particles.
