I believe that as a FOSS developer, in order for your code to be implemented and widely adopted, you'll have first reached a certain level of trust in the community. That, and yes your open source code can be picked through. Malicious code isn't always immediately found, but it does ruin the hard earned reputation of the developer.

Source: just speculation from being a FOSS fan for many years

Astonishingly enough, in my very, very flawed state, rain water collection is not only legal, there are tax incentives for it. Although with the way things are going, it's probably only a matter of time before it's made illegal as another means of control.

It's great advice, but not if our local water supply is contaminated. I'd need more rain water collection than I have room for!

Wonder if the PFAS water test kits are any good, or if I should just pony up the $500 and send soil sample off to a lab. Not that I could do anything about it. Still gotta eat.

Unless you're using NVIDIA. Didn't work out of the box for me and required a couple hours of fiddling. Mint worked seamlessly.

Just wanted to say you're not alone here; this is the first time I've encountered a "laggy" post, and I was also wondering if it's a boost issue due to all the images.
