Not to forget, in many rural areas in developed countries, more and more houses are abandoned. Next of kin is not interested in moving to there relatives house in the country side.
Because of higher living costs in the cities (apartment, parking costs, etc) the group with lower income and on social welfare are moving to the rural areas where housing is cheaper.
Because of environmental issues (better to live close to work, less carbon pollution) and globalisation agenda, the rural areas of the world are lost forever. The rural areas will become as in the movie Mad Max, totally without and control from government.
Politicians will never address the rural areas in a positive way, because they know they will loose city votes. That’s why you always here generic promises, like “more police” and such, then they also get the city votes.
You can’t overrule an inheritance law by adding some preference. Maybe in the USA, but in many country’s you can’t even write your children off their rightful inheritance.
The problems with tech companies are not that they are big, but people follow them blindly.
These companies only work for making money and are not around to help people.
This other day a journalist asked a big computer game producing company why they are selling in-game stuff to kids (like Overwatch). They refused to answer. They are not around to help people.
A hospital in Tanzania was in dire need for an upgrade of there IT-system connecting a X-ray machine to doctors for image analysis. They had no budget. 2 helpful guys from Europe searched the Webb for free software. On there free time they built a system which they installed themselves. The big companies are not around to help people.
Thanks for the answer. Well, created a Linux container (Ubuntu 17.10) using lxc. Installed browsh. Works very very fine. Same issues as others found:
* Forms not working in Firefox but works fine in the terminal. Google search...
Some more testing:
- use nginx as a proxy for browsh
- configure the Firefox instance (install uBlock Orgin, remove history and set other privacy related configurations and hope it works.
I am very familiar with uBlock and such. I have a local DNS at home which blocks a lot of stuff for the whole family at home without using plugin-blockers. My wife don’t know a life with ads and is often surprised when visiting friends: “what a nightmare of distraction”
What I mean is an app that connects to an instance (vm, server) a brow.sh.
I would like to install this in a lxc container and connect to it from my mobile via VPN and use HTTP-proxy settings or and with an specific brow.sh-app for my mobile. Could this work?
