A New Anonymous Phone Carrier Lets You Sign Up With Nothing but a Zip Code
You don't even need a zipcode if you use https://silent.link/ then you can pay with whatever crypto and have an esim where the balance never expires and it works in most of the world. I've used it a few months and it's pretty good if you don't need a phone number.

There actually was a transportation agency that had an ad campaign oriented around this idea. Basically people in the cars saw the train going by so fast and felt jealous because they were stuck in their cars.
Anyone remember what agency put this on?

IceDrive silently lost 12% of my files (3,000+ files) over 3 years. Check your backup NOW.
That's tragic. Sorry about your loss and hope you can resolve it.
My tip for everyone would be if a cloud provider is offering lifetime plans to be very careful because that doesn't indicate a sustainable model. Not saying it's always a scam but it's not a good sign.

I think it's because they build each app from source to ensure what you see on github is what you get. And I think it just takes a while to process with so many apps on fdroid getting updates.

If you really wanna get started with your own domain I highly recommend just getting https://purelymail.com/ setup for the hosting provider. It's going to be way cheaper than just about anything and you pay for what you use. I've been on it for a few years and never had a problem.

Heritage Foundation plans to ‘identify and target’ Wikipedia editors
Reply in thread
What solution would you propose? I assume the main problem is that it supposedly limits Wikipedia's ability to ban people that would otherwise just make another account? Maybe they could limit VPN editing to accounts with 500 edits or whatever.
In any case now seems like a great time to prod them to reconsider this policy.

What open source project(s) are you working on?
Most recent coding open source work was for OpenLibrary.org, which is a super inviting place to jump in and contribute.
But I have been maintaining my awesome list about social enterprises: https://github.com/RayBB/awesome-social-enterprise
I also started a community here for it: https://lemmy.ml/c/socialenterprise
I don't think they're like some grand solution or something but I like the way they move us (less dependence on the rich donating money and more emphasis on helping the community). That being said, there is a lot of "green washing" type organizations that try to use the label without living up to it.

Europe: Prepaid, internet only, no recurring fees
If your laptop supports esim you can checkout https://esimdb.com/ which as a pretty comprehensive list. Most of these are prepaid for X months and you get Y GB of data. So could fit what you need.
