What if YIU was binary but didn’t a program to read it 😯

In the past I had been partial to Icelandic hosts because they’re not in the 14 eyes, but they’re still European so there’s that to consider. There’s also likely good hosts in Russia, China, etc. Other than those two countries, it would probably be a good idea to look for hosts based out of the global south, and they’d probably need servers in several countries to provide the traffic balancing large clouds offer. I haven’t looked recently, but I know Panama used to have a lot of hosts. That’s probably a good place to start.

If enough of us do it, absolutely

That’s an awesome step; I cut Amazon out of my life several years ago and haven’t looked back. And I sincerely applaud you for providing this challenge. As for getting rid of AWS, I haven’t found a way. I was actually hoping that’s what you were going to include. I found in my own attempts a few years ago that getting rid of AWS pretty much disables the Internet for you. I haven’t tried again recently, but I assume that it has only gotten worse. Same with Google and Microsoft clouds.

Does your de-amazon challenge include de-aws? If so, that’s going to be tough. You would have to be extremely disciplined. If it’s just about not buying from Amazon, that’s definitely doable.

Good post

nushell is pretty cool

Bingo. We’d still have wooden cart wheels instead of rubber tires. And no trains, either. And no airplanes. Etc.

Do I get to pick the color of the wheel? Can I have a different wheel material?

Do popup window notifications also tile? I have a problem with those sometimes appearing under a window and I never see them.
