I think that the intended meaning of "sustainable" in this case is that it is a form of fuel which is not fossil but renewable, and that it has neutral carbon balance.

Sure but even if they connect the dots, basically nothing is at stake, at least in my case. The only reason I have an account is for small things like Youtube's "watch later" list.

This is what works for me: I open a new personal account (using a fake name) every few months, when I open the new one I delete the old one. Obviously I don't use Google for anything important e.g. email. Basically, at any given time I

Yeah for me as well, it's just a way of recognising teamwork. If anything I would say it's the opposite, excessive "I..me..myself" can become a red flag in some cases.

Parent has a point, there are so many things that don't even make sense in other languages, for example in my native language we don't have a word that corresponds to "Refactor", any possible translation would be weird a

I'm in your same boat, English as a second language and I dislike having to use my native tongue for dev-related concepts, it just doesn't work.

yes that seems to be the point. NAS is over the network, USB is supposedly "cold storage" (unless you keep it connected 24/7). Imagine something like: all drives on your desktop PC are compromised due to a PSU malfunction tha

Look I think our main disagreement comes from here: > People create things that they want to use themselves, not because they have to satisfy KPIs about number of users to their management. Instead, for me it is more something like: &quo

Those are all ad-hoc hypotheses. I agree with the first part of your post, where you state that there are better distros for PinePhone. But this is still highly problematic because most people don't want to install a distro from a micr

I have a PinePhone, with the distro that was recently selected as the "official" one, so it's supposed to be the most polished[1]. I can't even do things as basic as placing an app icon on the home screen, and expect tha

The minimap plugin mentioned in this article is unmaintained. Looking at the plugin page, the last version was in 2018 and judging from the reviews, it only works for some users but for many others it no longer does. I would like to know if

Yes if you use your camera as a hobbyist I agree with you. For professional use, the clone stamp solution is not going to work, as I explained in the sibling thread. In that case you would need to have your sensor professionally cleaned, wh

I’m not familiar with edit templates, they would be ok as long as they can be stored for later reuse, this is because the typical workflow in news is that you don’t edit 300 photos all at once at the end of the month, it’s more like: you ed

Like in any field, when you go from hobby to doing it as a job, any trivial task becomes a problem if you have to repeat it dozens of times per month. Perhaps you can create a macro to apply the same edit automatically to all your imported
