  • About the composting - if you live in a region which has a professional compositing facility, properly sort your rubbish and don’t compost on your own.

    Composting emits a lot of greenhouse gases and professional facilities capture them and use them in less harmful ways. So if we were all in-house composting our bio-garbage it would be more harmful for the environment than using communal services.

    It’s a little bit different for gardening products - those first capture greenhouse gases and would rot on ground anyway so composting kinda balances out. But still, for example if you’re cutting your grass just leave it on the ground and rake it. This way it’s not gonna rot and will fertilize your lawn.







  • I create tables every day for run-of-the-mill stuff that simply doesn’t need a database. No one has time for that.

    It seems that your issue isn’t the lack of tables in sheets but no easy way to create a simple db.

    If we want to break Microsoft’s monopoly than we can’t do that by reimplementing Microsoft’s monopolistic ecosystem. And that creates the opportunity to correct questionable and arbitrary Microsoft decisions.

    People are used to MS Office now but so were they used to typewriters a few decades ago. And if we’re changing OSes we don’t have to stick to one office suite.





  • Slightly related to the issue of remembering addresses, I think the main issue is with the fact that local nameservers are pretty much non-existent if you’re not running OpenWrt or OpnSense. Which is shameful because the local nameserver is an amazing quality of life tool.

    Also the fact that officially there are no local TLDs except for “.arpa” while browsers won’t resolve one word domains without adding http://

    And don’t get me started on TLS certificates in local networks… (although dns01 saves the day)
