War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery. RAID is Backup. SMS is 2FA. Ketchup is Vegetable.

I worry that ordinary people are treating technology more and more like magic, not giving any thought to the massive conglomerates doing all sorts of nonsense behind the scenes, and not understanding that it doesn't have to be like this. Computers aren't magic, they bleed, they can be destroyed!

“If you wanted to go all in on the eco-front, there is only one phone for you– the Fairphone 4.”
@Mrwhosetheboss@twitter.com reviewed the best phones of 2022 & #Fairphone came out tops in the Eco-Conscious category, calling it “almost not fair to the other phones”. https://bit.ly/39gEcOo

Man taking firewood to home as fuel, I was like this man when I was a little boy, we were traveling about 7 kilometres with a bulk like this.

I am honored to be chosen by the Nordic ministers of culture to be one of thirteen experts in a new Nordic think tank. The think tank will take a closer look at the tech giants’ influence on democracy in the Nordic Region and come up with proposals for solutions.

The think tank will carry out the work over the course of the next 12 months, and will result in a presentation of its recommendations in the first half of 2023. 

So all thoughts and comments are welcome!
