Not in Australia where it is illegal for the police to touch your phone.

Totally agree about WhatsApp as I no longer use it due FB shenanigans. A lot of people do though which is interesting as it so easy to move.

Using things like Signal and WhatsApp may reduce your footprint further.

I’ve used wifi calling from hotel rooms overseas as well as locations where mobile coverage is poor and it works fine. I suspect (not know) that the voice network provider knows pretty much where your location is though.

Iran’s religious leadership learned the lessons from the Cold War that using proxies to achieve their strategic objectives was the way to go. They are probably the reason that there is continuing strife and a major driver to why Israel has continued to be increasingly extreme. Effectively they have been winning the game as Israel is now ruled hardline religious nuts.

The Canon driver needs to be installed on Fedora and has never worked out of the box without some tweaking. Canon is not really in the Linux support game.

The Canon Pixma has always problematic for me with driver issues.

Another name for leaf blowers is air brooms and air brooms are useful for big jobs. They now come as battery powered which is better on two fronts as they are quieter but more importantly they are not using 2 stroke motors. Apparently the 2 stroke is the most polluting of internal combustion engines whose design hasn’t really improved since they were first invented.

It’s more about metabolic health rather than weight loss or gain. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of cellular biology and not having enough or poorly functioning mitochondria leads to all sorts of problems like inflammation and metabolic disorders like diabetes. A well functioning mitochondria should give more energy and better performance as well as better health.

Try High Intensity Interval Training. Really intensive short workouts of a few minutes seem to regenerate mitochondria.

It depends on what the publishers publish for. If it’s money then Peertube is probably not attractive.

Thanks. It was not obvious. I wonder how well the distinction is appreciated by the target young audience? I know that the young seem to simplify their use of language.

I thought Russians referred to motherland not the fatherland. Is this a Putin shift?

Sadly pedestrian wait times are not being optimised as well, so there is not much to help with liveable cities.

Road designers say if you want traffic throughput in high traffic situations, use traffic lights instead of roundabouts. Apparently there are a lot of studies that show that.
