Yeah, but there is no button to remove all of them at once. And the next time you’ll visit the site, they’ll just get installed again - so I don’t think it is very useful to delete them.

This is a browser feature called ‘service workers’ which indeed allows websites to keep a process running for e.g. notifications.and pending updates.

Can be highly annoying. Visit ‘about:serviceworkers‘ to see the installed ones.

Yeah, and Wikipedia, linux,… have become important as well, without big corpo

This article is about global electricity production, not all energy combined. This is an important nuance, as much energy consumption uses fossil fuels directly, namely cars, many (older) house or industrial processes. Only a small fraction of this is electricity, and in the grander scheme, the “renewable” part is only a fraction: https://ourworldindata.org/energy-production-consumption.

So, while this is a step in the good direction, it is only a very small one.

@BlackLaZoR@BlackLaZoR@kbin.run would you mind updating the title to reflect this?

There are some who repurpose some Ikea-stuff as server racks: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=ikea+server+rack&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fi.pinimg.com%2Foriginals%2F81%2F84%2Fab%2F8184ab11849051f4fa0f66f50b0ac97d.jpg

How can we make sure their privacy claims about search aren’t bullshit?

(I still trust them though, just pointing out it is an equivalent problem)

Shoutout to https://f-droid.org/en/packages/deckers.thibault.aves.libre/, which shows your pictures on a map without any cloud service.

I used this one or a similar one a while back. Pure magic. It started downloading a ton of stuff, and half an hour later I was greated by a (slow) macOS, good enough to do some tests of my webapp on Safari.

Is now a bad time to pitch https://mapcomplete.org/surveillance ?

Bwa, we’ve had worse ;)

It is the abbreviation of OpenStreetMap.org, a crowdsourced map of the world. You’ve 100% sure already used the data of the project, in the form of Organic Maps, OsmAnd, the maps on Facebook, instagram en Whatsapp or Pokemon Go.

Well, in a way, they do provide accurate geolocalisation for indoor environments based on wifi networks. And it is right that having internet/bluethooth access also (more or less) reveals your location; but that doesn’t make it ethical.

You forgot “Use AI”

Yes. I’m mostly developing a website, and testing on another browser is necessary every now and then. But that is my only use reason.

My main browser used to be firefox till tw9 weeks qgo, but it started to be buggy so it’s LibreWolf now.

For maps: either OsmAnd or Organic Maps. The first one is a beast but needs to be tamed, the latter one is more user friendly. They are both based on !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml

Additionally, you can use https://mapcomplete.org to improve the maps (or the online editor in openstreetmap.org)

Some shameless advertising: there is an OpenStreetMap-community on lemmy: !openstreema0@lemmy.ml

Shoutout: we have a community here to on lemmy: !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml

Hijacking the thread:

You are all welcome on !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml to discuss anyting OpenStreetMap-related

Also have a look to https://mapcomplete.osm.be - this one works on mobile and desktop and has many thematic maps (e.g. one for shops, one for cycling stuff, one for toilets) and you can improve the data there as well + add images.
