Even if it's not satire I think it's still worth understanding other people's perspective even if we think they are wrong they have the same opinions about us and not opening up and listening to them creates an unessessary divide that we see now in America.

If you want to set-up disk encryption you should probably understand that while the server is booted up as far as I know there will be no disk encryption leaving it completely available for anyone to take data from
Although most people entering your house would probably unplug the laptop and open it at there own home the data could still be valuable if it stays powered up with battery power.
Thanks for the peertube link.
Fair enough, I'll stop bugging you.
A rasperry pi idles at about 2 watts vs a laptop that idles at about 4 watts. At $0.30/kwh (a very high price for electricity) you would save 5 dollars per year on electricity. This laptop trades blows with the rasperry pi and costs half the price (55$ aud vs over 200$ aud for a brand new pi 5) Even this second hand one costs 110$ aud which is twice the cost. With that cost of electricity it would take 11 years in order to break even. And that's only if you consider monetary cost and not environmental cost.
I have a Samsung phone. I checked app cleaner to see if there are any meta services and there weren't any so I suppose I'm good.
This is generally not true. If you are using your laptop as a home server chances are it's going to be idling 99% of the time and laptops are generally pretty good in terms of idle power draw if you manage to disable the screen (or just disconnect it, take it off and find a way to repurpose it)
And in terms of environmental impact saving a laptop from landfill is definitely better since the majority of a computers impact is from the co2 emmissions from the manufacturing process. And this isn't taking into account the likely ethical considerations such as supporting terrible mining practices for resources like cobalt.
The construction cite issue is a fair point. If you really need traffic maybe you should try using magic earth. It's not FOSS but the privacy would still be leagues better than Waze (which is owned by Google)
Your right, I'm sorry about that I made an edit to correct it.
Thanks for asking i've been wondering myself actually. I looked it up and organic maps doesn't actually do traffic, although magic earth does (another not foss but apparenty privacy respecting map app that uses osm) It says it's just crowdsourced from the general public who uses magic earth (in an anonimous way, I guess there are enough magic earth uses for it to work since Some people say it works really well. (although others say it doesn't you should probably try it for yourself.)
On another note that I also found from my research just then, traffic knowing apps don't actually improve travel times but they do make previously congested places more congested. sources:
Edit: Magic earth is not foss so there is no way to varify that the app is actually respecting your privacy like it says it is, i'm sorry for any confusion.
