At least they put a date on it. Jeff bezos claimed he would donate 12 billion dollars or around that to climate change initiatives.

6 years later and I have kept track of it for the first 4-5 years. He had donate a whopping <3% of what he pledged. Of course he paid a lot more to pollute more than he saved with rockets.

Tons of stuff are not on fdroid due to requirements by fdroid, a longer process to push releases, etc...

It works for many apps, but there is IzzyOnDroid for much faster releases as well as dozens of fdroid repos for specific projects by default available on NeoStore.

I am not experienced enough to know the ins and outs of why fdroid is so difficult and slow for some devs, but it has been someone limited in apps at times because of it.

Really depends on what you consider grinding.

Pretty much all MMOs or PVEs have you grinding for gear (helldivers 2 I don't feel is grindy in comparison, but some do)

Survival games like ark, valheim, etc.. Have you grinding for bases and the next section of the game

Pretty much all PvP games (CS2, valorant, apex, starcraft, Rocket league, etc...) have you grinding out muscle memory skills

The antithesis to these are instance-based games where at max you grind aesthetic gimmicks, but in single player games they don't have those like REPO where you always reset and fall guys where it is minigame based

The problem with these games is since you don't have a "reward for work" (grinding), people get bored of them.

Polar Flow (finnish company, makers the best heart rare chest straps and decent fitness watches)

Fitotrack (local only, open source)

Open tracks (local only, open source)

That is about it as far as I know. The open source ones I don't know if they are European specifically, but that are open source so it doesn't matter as much.

There was an old fighter pilot game that I used to play on linux back in the day all the time in the early 2000s. I can't remember the name but it was because my dad's laptop was very cool to me and ran SUSE, so I played that, super tux, and a few free games because the alternative was a windows 95 machine with a 10 gig upgraded hard drive.

For grounding, no. The parts are all qualified and have many many many modern ESD and ground fault detection, prevention, and mitigations.

The biggest problem with airflow is making sure it doesn't recirculate as much as possible.

Lego is actually one of the very few companies that isn't batshit crazy over video game IP. (Real life Lego clones are probably different though).

They even gave a shout out to Manic Miners (a rock raiders fan remake) on the official podcast and haven't done anything to take it down. I can't remember if they officially said they won't do anything also

Yes they do. Plaque buildup leads to gingivitis and cavities. It is in one's best interest to reduce plaque not because it makes your teeth look good, but because it will help you not have receding gums when you are older which leads to exposed roots, root canals, tooth replacements, etc...

Here is a long term study

Both probing depth and clinical detachment loss of the teeth were improved with an electric toothbrush.

They have to be a bit more waterproof than a toothbrush though...

Finally a QT browser because the stupid Firefox (and forks) always have disappearing GTK buttons randomly.
