Ok but what about images and formulas?

I get the brand Lotao, but they are German (also available in UK IIRC). Our drug store DM also has a house brand of it. I assumed that if there are 2, there are probably more elsewhere ;)
They've altered Fusarium venenatum which is currently what Quorn utilizes in its products.
"The production process of gene-edited MP is more environmentally friendly than chicken meat and cell-cultured meat."
That's good news, if they get to the point where it is more economically friendly than chicken meat it will be great news.
I would love to eat meat free alternatives. Quorn gives me IBS. Same with the highly processed meat free "meat".
Beans are my basic goto for protein plus eggs.

I was already using Tor Browser for sites that UK ISPs are banned from letting me access.
I continue to use Tor Browser for entirely innocuous sites that are collateral damage of the OSA.
For example, the Interactive Fiction Archive. All its game files are voluntarily blocked in the UK by its well-meaning but stupid operators. Even games intended for children. They should stop complying and just serve up all their files to everyone. If a teenager learns what a. z5 file even is, they deserve to be able to play it.
Any reddit thread where someone said naughty words? "Oh we're going to need your phone number and a facial". I don't think so, Mr Data Harvester. Click on URL, Ctrl+c, alt-tab to Tor Browser, Ctrl+v, "Are you over 18?" Yes I am. See how easy that is?
I hate my government.
I use Orbot on Android - which provides a Tor connection. I'm not sure why people are paying for VPNs for the small number of sites that are blocked in the UK.

LXC containers on top of Debian in a specific work station just for this. I have one generic container to start everything, and then create specific ones if projects get bigger.
This is by far the best option to isolate and easily create development environments that I found.
I connect to the containers from VS Code running on Mac OS.
Incus is a great way to manage LXC containers, after LXD came under the Canonical umbrella.

Everyone wanted to centralise as much as possible to save every cent. No wonder what it got us all into.
Enjoy it while saving your cent!
Also layer upon layer of abstractions - to the point where no single person understands the stack from top to bottom.
Perhaps there is a light at the end of the tunnel: with AI coding assistance, the whole application can be written from scratch (like the old days). All the code is there, not buried deep within someone else's codebase.
Seeing this as an opportunity: this further solidifies the need for opensource and decentralisation.
Chat apps should be opensource, E2E encrypted, and decentralised. In 2025 we still don't have that in any meaningly manner - Signal perhaps comes the closest, but it's centralised and controlled by a US organisation. The moats are deep within the chat app space, and getting the "network effect" is going to be really tough.
To the best of my knowledge it acts as an isolated profile entirely.
Precisely, it creates a whole new Google account.
Native phone apps give me the creeps. I assume the developer's are able to track me in various ways even without my giving permissions. Is that an unfounded fear on my part?
Can an app uniquely identify me if I don't give it control over my phone number / nearby devices?
Can apps geo-locate me if the location permission has not been granted? (seems like they could just make a network request to their servers and use the IP address of the request for a rough idea).
I _really_ wish using the network was a permission (even if it was an "advanced mode" thing).
Android 15 supports Private Space [0] that is essentially a separate profile you can install apps into that you can put to sleep. Basically I put all low trust apps into it, but can still access easily enough.

Today, we have Mobian, postmarketOS, PureOS and many more GNU/Linux OSes for smartphones.
If I want to interact with modern society, I have to use banking apps, the NHS app, WhatsApp, numerous IoT apps... The list is endless. Many of these will refuse to run on rooted phones.
Google and Apple won. We can learn from this and hope the next big thing to come along has some competition from the truly open source side of computing.
