Congratulations to Android for discovering the LG V20, whose 2nd screen did the same thing in 2016

My first time I started winging it with a raspberry pi, docker, and nginx and it took me like 2 months to get one service up and running and I didn't feel it was very secure - fail2ban didn't work, geoblocking didn't work, and updates were manual.

When I re-started from scratch with an x86 device and cosmos it has been shockingly easy in comparison. Not only is it much quicker to spool the service up (app store), they can be automatically updated, the proxy has options for geoblocking, rate limiting, etc.

I've even got some of the services below built from a custom compose file instead of the app store, some use remote storage and some are set up with OAuth SSO. There's still mild troubleshooting for a lot of things but it's been much easier for me to understand and fix issues, plus there's an active discord community as well.

I'm all in on Cosmos Cloud, been very happy with it

The unfortunate reality is in our system that is not possible unless democrats can achieve decades of overwhelming wins. We can't get rid of the things you mentioned without a majority in the house, and a 60% majority in the senate considering how often republicans filibuster. Even then, we need to claw back the 3-6 disadvantage in the supreme court for any changes to stick long term.

"At the extremes, a vegan cyclist will produce only 5% of the emissions a conventional pickup truck will produce, while a meat-loving cyclist will actually produce 42% more GHGs than the most efficient EV. " http://large.stanford.edu/courses/2022/ph240/schutt2/

I'm sure the exact numbers are a little open to interpretation but I've seen it mentioned more than once in different places. That said, I absolutely try to commute on my ebike as much as possible

Definitely a ton if variability in what you'd actually put out depending on bike type, speeds, diet etc

Paradoxically there are actually some indications that the calories burned while bicycling, especially from a meat-heavy diet, lead to more carbon emissions per mile than powering an electric car with anything other than coal. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1108357_electric-cars-vs-bicycles-which-has-a-higher-carbon-footprint There are still a wide variety of societal benefits to more bicycling but it's not quite accurate say "zero" impact I think.

Don't they do most of their launches from Baikonur in Kazakhstan?

I don't know about all manufacturers but Sony and I think Samsung both allow you to limit max state of charge to 80%, I just hit 3 years on my device consistently using that feature, and haven't seen much degradation yet.

Same here lol, it's been so long that I don't think I can even take delivery of a 2 seater anymore due to family size changes

I only have my one anecdote to go off of, but if you are located in the US eBay is full of enterprise computer reseller postings and mine arrived in very clean condition. And eBay generally has pretty strong buyer protections.

The beginning of your post sounds like you are still looking at hardware to buy, but the later half seems like you already have the NUC?

If not I'd suggest looking at a used HP Mini, Lenovo Tiny, or Dell Micro ex-enterprise PC. They can be had very cheap off ebay, run with similarly low power demands but very capable devices. I run an HP 705 G4 mini Ryzen 5 2600GE with 16gb ram, 256gb SSD, cost me about $95 and averages about 15w
