Old laptops - I currently have two old and underpowered laptops that I don't use day to day. I've just cleaned up another one for someone who wants to sell it and a friend has another one he's offering for free. I'd be happy to give mine away, but without installing SSDs, on them and maxing the RAM, where possible, they are only usable for light tasks running a light weight desktop, e.g. #LXQt or #XFCE etc. Laptops, especially cheap ones are all too often just landfill fodder.....

@TimWardCam@c.im given how little exercise most adults get and how awful the British diet has been allowed to slip to, combined with lackluster wage growth and inflation I'm amazed it's only as modest as they say... Mind you, falling life span should make pensions cheaper and annuity rates better...

@alternativeto when ads were small static text blocks I didn't mind. As soon as they started to move, pop-up or pop-under I started to block them. I've used an adblock of some sort for so long now I'd forgotten what some sites look like with ads. Any site that says turn off your block gets ignored, and there are no exceptions. If ads weren't annoying, were relevant to the site, legal, static, small, then I may consider unblocking them, it's their own fault they get blocked.

@iode it's absurd when you think about it. Can't let children use social media in case they self harm, or use it to hurt others. But it's okay to let adults do the same... Social media needs regulation for everyone. At the moment companies are happy to promote dangerous messages because they make lots of money and take no responsibility. I don't claim to know how to do it, but the big firms need controlling somehow.
