Few notes: - reverse osmosis does not give good water, it's way less salty, but not much good to drink; - thermal desalinization gives PURE water, so we need to mineralize it before drinking, and that's demand typically clean sand

Well... In app terms you ask for a cronjob and msmtp wrapped in a simple script... The hard part for you would be not being in most spam list in few hours.

You miss a part: it's not just real estate. If we WFH, we own homes, not in dense cities. If we own homes we start having maybe a shed with p.v. and storage, a homelab, which with modern FTTH connections could be a small machine room a

Thanks to the author and those who post here to have well written down what I say for some years! I add a thing: giants NEED the city to keep their business, who use Uber in a spread area where parking is never an issue and we all have cars

I suggest a very different reasoning: we know WFH works, we also agree that in large part of the world we have enough sunlight for p.v., battery storage could be cheap [1] and FTTH connections start be be very good for modern time. Who have

Well... An IT startup should have no need of NexCloud/O365/Google suite and so on, simply because techies know how to share files and produce documents in way much better ways. Staten that, as a POOR solution to collaborative work

I definitely follow you but noting a thing: the more we "advance" the more we implement again very old solutions, back for the pioneering Xerox PARC era, some random examples: - most UIs actually have switched from the "comme

Honestly I do not favor this paradigm, no matter if NextCloud, O360, SandStorm and alike: the point is that we should teach the desktop paradigm, syncing data around, not using desktops as monsters, hyper-expensive thin clients or more prop

People need to learn because resources are scarce, so we can't keep up using big buildings for less than 12h/day, to move between them, just to consume services (from collective transport to ready made food, wasting money in fast

Mh, so in the long run instead of a mobo you prize a desktop composed by a large unique integrate brik with at maximum external PSU and screen? Or the other end, looking at my desktop where the Nvidia card it's not much a card but a co

There are few points: - there is no FLOSS culture in most people, so the classic model "I publish and maintain my code, others get it from free and give back their improvements equally for free" does not work anymore in most cases

This is not a WFH peculiarity, is the bad company architecture to blame, where workers can extort time and managers can't see that. It might happen more FH than FO simply because managers tend to have little to know digital culture, bu

Personally I found just issues with people not understanding WFH, those with no home office room, those who work on a laptop, always at the same desk of course and so on. There are MANY, but that's not a WFH problem, is simply a proble

Well... I own a small, self-made (legally here, France) domestic p.v. with small storage (5kWp/8kWh LFP). The storage is just a very expensive backup able to keep the home when I do not need heating from one sunny day to another, able

It's not sufficient, of course, but it's still the best we can do now, not only for mere safety but also for innovation, interoperability. In such an open world there is little room to purposefully sell crap to sell after fixes fo

Surely we can't guarantee a really trustable system, in the end even Linux or Gcc aren't really audited before use. BUT still having open design, FLOSS code published from the first commit and developed openly allow to trust the p

Hum... For those eligible to WFH, there is no higher salary, simply state WFH or you will not find any workers interesting in working for you. IT workers united means no IT company can survive against them.

And that's precisely why I'm look for the moment people realize the power of being united and say "from now ANY company mandating RTO will found next to zero workers interesting in working for them"...

Usenet still exists, anyone can run a server and hosts public groups, emails even if with some giants hurting the freedom are still universally common. The main issue is how many know them and decide to came back to them. Oh, we also still

I suggest reasoning about mobile devices vulnerability, cars included (since nowadays are just smartphones on wheels, equally connected). If we allow closed source crap so spread, we are at danger because sooner or later a similar attack or

People like to forget a thing: Kanban, which is the scrum "ancestor", was designed for FACTORY MASS PRODUCTION of already designed parts, not for designing new ones, on other words it's a system that works only if what you do
