Comment LineageOS and others ? (Score 2) 53

I use lineageOS on my phone (Motorola Ace One) and none of the Google App. everything is from F-Droid.
I'm very happy with it, the battery last multiple days since I don't have any bloatware on the phone.
I was a Samsung Ultra User, I have the S22 Ultra (512), S23 Ultra (512) and S24 Ultra (1t).
The moto camera aren't has good then the Ultra Camera, but they are enough good.
Nobody follow, me I don't have silly advertizing popup on my phone.

FY Google.
I just hope that the new policy doesn't affect OpenSource Android like LineageOS!

And with the upcomming restriction of the Android Platform that Google annonce for this year, I'm very glad at Motorola / Lenovo to bright this option, I hope that other major manufacturers follows.

I also hope that the first Motorola GrapheneOS will be out in Canada before the Googlerestriction on third appstore software.

Long live to the OSS
Long live to f-Droid

Submission + - Beavers are undermining dykes in the Netherlands (theguardian.com) 1

Bruce66423 writes: 'Reintroduced for environmental reasons, the beaver has made an amazing comeback in the Netherlands. Extinct in the early 19th century, it was reintroduced in 1988, and now there are an estimated 7,000 beavers roaming around.now in danger of causing serious flooding.

'But there’s a significant downside to the booming Dutch beaver population. Beavers are increasingly digging burrows and tunnels under roads, railways and – even more worryingly – in dykes. For a country where a quarter of the land sits below sea level, this is not a minor problem – especially as beavers are not exactly holding back when digging.

“We’ve found tunnels stretching up to 17 metres into a dyke. Wide enough for a grown man to fit in. That’s alarming,” says Jelmer Krom of the Rivierenland water board. Rivierenland is a region in the middle of the Netherlands, crisscrossed by big rivers, where dykes are crucial for keeping high water at bay. If a major dyke gives way, it would cause a serious flood affecting thousands of people.'
