Consumer Culture/Materialism--Lecture by Professor Hollie Martin (2014)

You enter the dizzying space called the shopping center.  You gather as many goods as your budget (if you keep one) will allow (making a list, checking it twice).  You (considering yourself nice rather than naughty) celebrate your excursion and delight in your new, shiny stuff.  What is wrong with this picture?  Professor Hollie Martin (Glendale College English Department) takes a look at how our stuff may be - 1/2

Is switching from Googled Android to a ROM like Lineage or Calyx really good enough? It seems like asking for headaches to piggyback on Google's stuff while fighting against it. So things like Aurora and NewPipe keep breaking. Polishing a turd?

Maybe it's better to make a clean break and move to #pinephone. But the base model only has 2GB of RAM. I find it hard to believe that I can comfortably run a modern DE and browser with more then one tab open in 2GB.

Finally happened!

🌎 🌍 🌏 I'm working on a #map of #Mastodon servers "near me" basically mapping servers that are region-specific, as a way for folks to find Mastodon users in their region. Blue = signed on to the Mastodon Covenant, Green = I"m not sure they did.

This is my first time using #openstreetmap so I'd be grateful of any and all feedback, and offers to collaborate - I assume I can share the map for editing somehow 🤷

Run 5K once, twice or three times a week, especially in the morning, before breakfast. Whatever the weather, dress accordingly. Do short distance, run often. Started 5 years ago, never stopped. More energy, more focus 😉

Today's #Covid19Cymru headlines:
The fairly rapid fall in the number of cases continues. Deaths are very slightly up, though that's probably just noise at this stage.

The exceptional fall in cases of yesterday (which I suggested was suspect) probably was indeed a little unrealistic, though not so far off the mark as I thought it might be. Along with today's figure - which is not quite such a dramatic drop on a week ago (but still a relatively good one),
