Liftoff alternative

Welcome and have fun.
Sell them and buy low budget low power consumption disks that would fit my purpose.
Enterprise-grade usually has enterprise-grade power consumption. From the power saving alone you can buy nice stuff.
Technology isn't to enable users to do what they want, but to let corporations do what they can get away with.
They can, when they limit CO2 emissions as much as possible and compensatw for the remaining emissions by planting trees and other tricks.
Also, 'being carbon neutral' can mean several things:
- ensure the company doesn't produce CO2 (net)
- ensure the company and the commute of the employees doesn't produce CO2 (net)
- ... plus suppliers
- ... plus transport of the goods produced
- ...
And so on,... it all is just how you define it.
My house is the greenest in the neighbourhood and probably in the country. That it has nothing to do with being eco friendly but more with the paint on it is just a minor detail. ;)
Humans totally ignore that they are part of nature. Most think that reduced biodiversity won't include them.
Having the same sence of humor proved crucial for me, next to loving pets. I dated someone once and when she asked why I asked her I told her I liked older women. She was 3 days older. (And not amused)
I felt totally comfortable with a girl I met at a forum meeting we started seeing each other more. She had pets and the same sence of humor. She's my wife for 14y now, we have loads of pets. On my birthday I get gifted a younger wife, on her birthday she's rescued from an old man. She's 6 months younger.
"Survival of the fittest" when used to indicate the stongest should survive. Instead of the one best suited for (fitting) the situation.
We can only hope that this year finally opens the eyes of the deniers. (Before nature decides to finally solve the issue)
As long as there are people playing a game, there will be cheats. However, I decide what happens on my device, not a game or software developer. When the developer thinks he can set requirements, he is barred.
Not a single piece of software is worth risking my device for.

What do you consider your bad decisions when starting?
(lemmy.world)
At the moment I've dusted off a guitar and a bass I bought close to 20 years ago, an Ibanez EDB300 bass guitar
and my FrankenFender
a modified/mutilated Fender MusicMaster.
Without more experience then just messing about with a bad accoustic I thought those weren't to bright purchases, but at least I had a chance on getting to learn to play them, although I just started last month. (after fixing the FrankenFender, the added pickup is dead)
When shopping for some useful additions (tuner, neckband, stand) I however found the Fazley FMB218NT
at a very low cost, so I just added it to the basket before checking out. I think for now, buying a fretless bass when just learning to play tops it (for now), although I hope it manages to force me to concentrate more on the left hand.
I guess I'm not the only one that was a tad to enthusiastic when starting, what do you all consider as your (initially) bad decisions and how did they turn out?
Edit: Layout corrections and used my own pick for the Fazely instead of a static one from the shop (that didn't work in !liftoff@lemmy.world)
people won’t be addicted to it anymore
Wishful thinking. I'm wasting more time on Lemmy then I ever did on Reddit/Facebook/Twitter/...
However, the biggest advantage to me is that I can filter out what I don't want to see, not be forced to accept what is thrown at me or leav. (I did the latter on all) I now have the option to hide away from 'normals' again.
When you look at the world and see what is considered 'normal', who in their right mind would want to be like that?
And we have liftoff. ;)
Sorry, couldn't resist.
