The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

  4. Sealioning will not be entertained.

  5. No promoting of plant based capitalism

Tell us about a personal project, hobby, side thing, activity that you’ve been getting into lately.

A friend recently gifted me a PinePhone so I've been playing around with it and testing various linux distros on it. I've elected to use postmarketOS running Phosh and it's surprisingly usable as a phone. When it does break (due to user error of course) I can plug in a keyboard via USB-C and open a tty to fix it, or open an SSH connection to it (assuming that didn't break due to user error too).

Now, it's been fucking hot here due to a heatwave and my place—generally being much warmer than outside due to gigantic east-west facing windows (seriously, they take up nearly the entire wall)—that I haven't been able to take my ADHD meds the past few days. So being able to do nothing but tinker with linux on a phone has been interesting, but fun enough to distract me from the pains of living in this terrible accommodation lol.

Also, thanks Australia for forcing me to use a new phone due to the absolutely scuffed 3G (+ the 4G/5G devices we won't tell you about until we block them randomly!) shutdown. Fucking e-waste producing gremlins...
