Google doing away with cookies also conveniently shifts away most ad processing from their servers into Chrome (while killing their competition).
OOTL, what's going on here? Distributed processing like Folding@Home, but for serving ads to make Google more money?

Loved that phone. Check out the Jelly Star (I have the Jelly 2) if you want a small, full featured Android. Compromises for the size and price of course, but it has a headphone jack, sd card, IR blaster, and usb-c - everything I need.
A couple times a week. Tried going without, but missed it too much. Now a headphone jack is a key requirement. Bluetooth headphone mics in particular are rubbish compared to a basic wired option.
I've found Copilot helpful for some research and queries where I'm not really sure what I'm looking for, or when I'm sure something exists but not its exact form, or exactly where it is.
It's unclear what you're intending to use Copilot for. I wouldn't trust it for anything unattended eg answering an email for me.
Tipping this in my Jelly 2. Great phone, if a bit too small for me. I reckon 4" is the sweet spot.
Still, better than my old slab for daily use, though I keep the old one around for its camera.
Pkcell for sure. Just be careful with your dingus!
The reference to waste heat could include the heat from burning fossil fuels that isn't turned directly into work. Which is a lot.
So you're right, there will still be some waste heat and the reduction in production needs won't be that drastic. But it's still a significant chunk of the total!
Get a cheap used phone with a headphone port and sd card slot?
Have you tried powdered eggs?
I love chickens, they're just not non-perishable! :)
Or maybe build it into some neat cowboy hats?
Probably on the side of the screen, which is also where I like it. This change was actually a tipping point for me to give Linux another chance for daily driving.
