  • Termux. A Debian-based Linux system running on top of unrooted Android.
    It lets you interface with your phone’s functions (GPS, calls, etc.), and install packages to extend functionality.
    Turned my phone into a mobile network troubeshooting device, lets me grep through my sms, and I can ssh into my server on the go.

    With AnLinux you can install a full standard linux system in it, including a GUI, and connect to it with a VNC viewer. (AnLinux is just a helper script linking to some dude’s repo, so if you are at all security-minded, you can also bootstrap and install any Linux distro manually).
    So you could have a Debian with Gnome desktop running on your unrooted phone.




  • One more time, for those in the back:
    New types of nuclear power can’t be developed and built fast enough to help prevent the climate catastrophy. We need to (and are on track to) be carbon neutral in 20 years.
    Building new nuclear power plants is more expensive than any other form of energy.
    They hamper building renewables because they can’t be switched off quickly, which means they don’t fit into the flexible energy infrastructure that is needed to use renewables.
    They are unnecessary. Germany already replaced the power from nuclear with renewables, and are continuing to reduce coal power.
    Solar and energy storage capacity are exploding (pun not intended), and the costs are dropping through the floor right now.

    Even if nuclear power is 100% safe, it’s obsolete already.
