@feliks @Jain um, I like watching videos on it since it's so adorably nerdy and many especially Roman numismatists quite cool, explaining the emperors, the living conditions, why the coins look how they look etc. but I do not own coins
Medieval coins look very different from Ancient Coins. They are flat, its designs look rather simple, and most of the time, they look like a step back from t...
``The mega project is a hydropower station on the lower reaches of the Yarlung Tsangpo River, a plan of such breathtaking scale that it redefines the very concept of a mega-project. With a projected investment of 1.2 trillion yuan (approximately $167-170 billion) and a planned annual electricity output of 300 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh), the facility is designed to generate nearly three times the power of the iconic Three Gorges Dam, China's previous "project of the century".
Its output alone would be enough to power the entire United Kingdom and is equivalent to 20% of China's total residential electricity consumption in 2024, enough for 300 to 400 million people``

Je cherche un 2ème téléphone, sans pouvoir dépenser beaucoup, pour séparer physiquement 2 cartes sim.
Besoin de - fonctions de base (smartphone quand même), - si possible qq chose pas trop "crade" sur l'impact environnemental, - avant tout j'aimerais pouvoir le faire fonctionner avec le moins possible de Google and co, voir pas du tout.
Cependant, il faut que ça reste facile d'accès, je reste très amateur...
Des idées ou suggestions de sources fiables SVP ??
Évidemment, je relique les Fairphone avec #eos , mais le prix est vraiment trop élevé (ou j'ai pas les bons filons) et je flipper de basculer sur #eos et rien comprendre...
Oui, j'ai lu plusieurs fois de prendre plutôt un pixel... et ça a bien contribué à m'embrouiller ! 🙃 Bon, pour le début et pour virer un max de Google, c'est un peu ce que je fais déjà sur mon téléphone (j'utilise Fossify, mais certaines des appli ne me conviennent pas). Je vais aller voir ton pouet épinglé.
Et il n'y a pas de téléphone qui, de base, sont déjà installés avec des choses "cleans" ? Je flippe toujours un peu, face à un téléphone...
@niavy @thhareau Oui, c'est ce que j'avais ajouté : les Fairphone me font de l'œil, mais c'est vraiment trop cher (et c'est pour un téléphone d'appoint pour la famille, l'école...). Côté Fossify, je garde SMS, j'aime vraiment bien le gestionnaire de fichiers, l'horloge, je l'ai désinstallée ce matin (2ème fois que l'alarme du réveil ne sonne pas et me met dans une situation pourrie cote pro), agenda m'a mis un super bazar dans mes plannings (sur Nextcloud, et là je teste aCalendar) 1/2
@niavy @thhareau @lakorin Ah merci. Connaissais pas (enfin si j'ai connu un easy cash quand je bossais dans la vente sur eBay, c'était des concurrents, peut-être les mêmes...).
@niavy @thhareau J'ai viré aussi note que j'ai vraiment trouvé mal faite, pas testé l'appli téléphone qui apparemment ne lit pas la messagerie et a du mal à gérer le multi-sim. J'ai garde galerie, pas super convaincu, mais ça fait le job (j'aimerais vie' une synchro, ça, ça manque), gardé l'appareil photo mais il bug, et pour le clavier, j'ai pas testé, je teste HeliBoard, avec lequel je rame un peu depuis dimanche. 2/2
@niavy @thhareau @lakorin Oui, c'était ça je crois. Il me semble qu'à un moment ils ont tenté de se positionner sur eBay (gaffe : je suis un vieux, je parle des années 2005 je pense, voire avant...). Nous on ne faisait que eBay, zn vente pour les clients ou un peu (rarement) en achat vente.
une possibilité pour l'impact environmental et que ce soit pas très cher, pourrait être de regarder du coté de l'occasion, vu qu'il y a des gens qui changent après seulement un an ou deux, y'a moyen de d'avoir quelque chose de décent (s'il a pas été maltraité, ce qui est le risque).
Après, y'a de bonnes chances que ce soit du samsung ou apple dans la plupart des offres.
Et l'avantages des modèles moins récents, ils ont plus de chances d'être supporté par postmarketos.
@niavy @thhareau Pour l'agenda, il y en a plein. Et vraiment celle de Samsung est top. Juste ils mettent de l'IA partout maintenant et ça me soule un peu sur la confidentialité. Pour l'agenda Fossify, il a basculé une bonne partie de mes événements en "public" et avec un statut "à confirmer", il a fallu que je prenne plein' de temps pour tout reprendre.
@niavy @thhareau J'ai pas testé. Il n'a pas d'accès à la messagerie visuelle (si c'est comme ça qu'on dit). J'utilise l'appli orange, y compris avec mon abonnement Bouygues, et j'aime beaucoup la fonction de filtre et de blocage basée sur la réputation créée par les utilisateurs. Ça marche bien.
@niavy OK OK... Je vais aller voir Yet Another... Oui, orange ont limité, mais on voit encore le pourcentage de classement en démarchage ou pas, et on peu bloquer facilement. J'aime aussi la fonction "ne pas déranger" qui envoi direct sur la messagerie comme si on n'avait pas de réseau, très pratique quand on est allergique eu téléphone mais qu'on es obligé pour le boulot.
@niavy (Heliboard : toutes mes lettres "n" sont mal tapées et sont des apostrophes, et au lieu de taper "pas" je tape souvent "oas", et découvre avec effroi une apologie de l'OAS partout dans mes écrits ! Bi' et auto-remplissage des mdp avec 1password cafouille sévère...)
@niavy Merci pour la disparition' de l'OAS ! 😄 Et merci ça va vraiment etre utile.
Et pour le call blocker OK. Reste tout de même le côté participatif de l'appli Orange, où tous les utilisateurs partagent la même base (mais ça ne bloque plus automatiquement sur la base des signalements comme avant)
heh, that like had me look again to remind what it was saying in the article, and saw the 1 comment:
  VEE LAVALLEE 15h  This conversation you're having is very much what I've been waiting for. Sue Hawley is an excellent speaker on government issues. If the party in power agrees that there are rules in place to counter these lobbyists, then why are they not punishing those who break them? Is this just another straw man rule in "transparency"? They makes laws, as you say, that should prevent dark foreign money in our political system. Why is it not working? How can this loophole they've created be overcome? We The People are living in a chapter of Orwell's book 1984. You and your guest pointed out that, yes those rules are there. But if nothing is done to penalise the culprits, when the rules are broken how can people trust whatever the leader says. I know I don't! I will exercise my right to vote always but feel I've been made a fool of for believing any politicians nonsense. If a £M can be given to allow these big money guys to infiltrate the highest office in the land, where does that leave us? I can actually answer that question. It leaves us with the British version of MAGA and a Starmer version of Trump! We need to stop this in our politics before we become embroiled in kleptocracy.

BREAKING NEWS, folks! Kash Patel—tremendous guy, doing the job the boneheads at the FBI never could—just found THOUSANDS of Russia Hoax documents in “burn bags” in a SECRET ROOM!

Even the classified annex to the Durham Report—hidden, because they’re SCARED of the truth! My good friend John Ratcliffe, working with the best—Tulsi, Pam Bondi, real winners—getting ready to DECLASSIFY everything. People are saying, “Mr. President, how deep does the corruption go?” Deeper than Rocket Man’s missile silos! Under Trump, we EXPOSE the lies, we bring the truth to the American people, and we WIN so much you’ll get tired of winning! This is the GREATEST takedown of the Deep State in HISTORY—spectacular, marvelous, and only possible because we have the finest people on the job. Stay tuned, folks—this is just the beginning!

A lawmaker was doused in gasoline and set on fire inside his office Wednesday in what authorities say was a personal attack.
Danville City Councilman J. Lee Vogler, 38, was at work at Showcase Magazine around 11:30 a.m. when a man entered the building, confronted him, and poured a flammable liquid over him, police said.
The suspect burst in carrying a 'five gallon container' full of gas which he dumped on top of the politician, his boss and the magazine's owner Andrews Brooks said.
Vogler attempted to flee but was chased to the front of the building, where the suspect ignited the liquid and set him ablaze, Brooks added.
Vogler was airlifted to Central Lynchburg General Hospital and was described as 'awake and talking' by Brooks, although police did not provide details on the nature of his injuries.
Shotsie Michael Buch Hayes, the suspect who set councilman Lee Vogler on fire in Danville, Virginia, on Wednesday, had divorced his wife just two weeks back, the Daily Mail reported. According to the Danville Police Department, Shotsie Michael Buck Hayes and Vogler knew each other and the attack stemmed from a personal enmity.
"Israel just transferred the administrative authorities over Hebron’s iconic Ibrahimi Mosque from Palestinian to Israeli hands. The move is the first step in Judaizing [Israelizing] Muslim places of worship in Palestine...In other words, Israel seeks to erase the Palestinian character of the site and limit or completely block Palestinians’ access to it" No real coverage in the press
Israel just transferred the administrative authorities over Hebron’s iconic Ibrahimi Mosque from Palestinian to Israeli hands. The move is the first step in Judaizing Muslim places of worship in Palestine.
This follows years of harassment of the Palestinians living in the area around the mosque, including theft of homes by colonists ("settlers") who from upper stories threw refuse onto passing pedestrians.

According to the DOJ, from 2022 to 2024, Williams paid a teenager to photograph and record himself sexually abusing his younger stepbrother, a boy of 8-10 years old during the offenses. The teen was instructed by Williams to force his stepbrother to watch pornography and then engage in sexual acts.
>Based on the investigation at the time of this release, the victim and the suspect are known to each other and the attack stems from a personal matter not related to the victim’s position on Danville City Council or any other political affiliation.
#Today_I_Learned about: 'tight tassel wrap.' Although the nation's corn crop is in great shape, "tight tassel wrap occurs when the topmost leaf of the corn plant fails to fully unfurl, trapping the tassel and preventing it from properly shedding pollen. When temperatures rise into the upper 90s, these silks may also lose receptivity to pollen altogether." more here: url.nead.us/d #Agriculture
