Sure, you reduce the power, but also will have spurious retransmissions of packets because of lower power, so all connections will be poor.

Also aside from turning it off, a lot of router/AP combos do support WiFi schedules, so that the radios can be disabled on a timer when you're sleeping.

If you don't want the radio rattling around, learn how to do some network cabling. :)

Wasting perfectly good aluminium foil.

This is a concern that is not discussed enough, especially on a platform where Bitcoin is dominant in a way that screams (to me) social conditioning to keep investment moving into Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has become valuable because it has reflected the value of store that people have put into all of the hardware, but Proof of Work cannot continue the way it is because resources will dwindle, and personally I believe something that is as trivial to track as BTC shouldn't have a future in a sovereign system. There has been plenty of research done that indicates how certain mixers leave telling fingerprints.

Even if not built and controlled by a nation state, it should be considered a tool that only extends the current and extremely unfair economic system we live in.

I don't intend to be rude but for the people following this kind of work - be wary.

Humans are not homogeneous - you cannot tell everybody that all they're better off with diet X or lifestyle Y - it depends on personal (epi)genetics.

I'm neither vegan or anti-carnivore, but the notion that you get everything you need by eating the middleman is disingenuous.

Variety is the spice of life, and yes you need fiber from plant material (but not everyone needs raw uncooked fiber).

Likely to be an unpopular opinion on this platform, but Bitcoin is not the saving grace of the financial world and it feels like I'm witnessing a massive psyop with the way BTC is being promoted and romanticized on Nostr.

There is a place for cryptocurrencies, but most implementations are cash grabs, are poorly implementated, lack true anonymity, and are legitimately adored by LE agencies.

Also: PoS >> PoW.

Just Survive Somehow

Designed only from a partial frame of reference, as humanity has focused so much in recent years in promoting that only of the intellect, and not true intelligence (mind + body).

Clarification and/or source? Any device is at risk when in the wrong hands.

Even on devices that have fallen out of support, protections against PIN and other input attacks are far stronger than stock AOSP and the cost requirement to attack unsupported devices with GrapheneOS on them is still fairly substantial.

Keep money away from centralized exchanges with KYC requirements. #getmonero :)

The hope is that the Android community does not continue to suffer because of decisions made by the Goog. Projects like Lineage and Graphene desperately need conscious and strong engineers contributing their talents so that you can get 3-5 years of support.

Currently I am on a Pixel 5a with Graphene, but it has been out of support for some time and I'm considering the move to Lineage for this device.

I severely limit what I do on it, and also have a background in network and device security so I'm able to monitor my device in a way that I feel I can hold out longer with out of support devices than I would advise for the general populous.

The requirement however involves the use of Pixel devices, which also has a short lived support window meaning to stay on GrapheneOS you have to rotate your devices every few years.

LineageOS also serves as a great way to work with de-Ggogled Android, but does have some work to do to be on par with Graphene in terms of security hardening (mind you it's hard for the large array of device support Lineage has).

They might be juvenile as their sternum and legs look quite different than what I am used to seeing for Orbweavers, but they look gorgeous!

Happen to have an ID for that spooby friend? Their abdomen reminds me of Orbweavers.

I'm both aghast and unsurprised by this idiocy.
