mleku on Nostr: i have officially pulled my main voice/sms/shitty internet sim out of my main phone ...

i have officially pulled my main voice/sms/shitty internet sim out of my main phone now, and it only has an ethernet connection

the sim has gone into my tiny thumb-sized dumbphone, which will be what i carry with me when i go out

the other phone is now my house bank terminal and i have a better, more robust device coming, which will do this work, i seem to recall i ran xapo bank app on a rooted phone before ok, but revolut was unhappy, and the device will be able to limit charge to 80% so it doesn't blow up the battery when almost always on charge, and when it comes with me for navigation duties, i'll do what i can about the root control of radios and disable all of them, including the "emergency" one... GPS receiving only.

got my earthing mat sorted out and plugged in, and did something i was meaning to do for a while, moved all the cables out from underneath my desk so it was ok to put the carbon lamp heater behind my desk where it will keep my legs warm... the floor here is cold, and even, just before, i closed up the house, and the floor started getting noticably damp all over the place

one of the great things about the carbon lamp is it heats the materials not the air, so the light it shines on the floor will actually penetrate into the floor and the concrete slab and warm it all up, and that will hold heat for a long time, meaning that i will probably be able to not have the heater on sometimes at all even though it's cold because the slab around the desk has warmed up... oh yes, and my earthing mat is black and likely fairly thermoconductive as it is also electroconductive, and improve the absorption of the heat into the floor... last step is to disable the wireless radio on the modem and all i will have of radio in here is a teensy little GSM radio in that little phone, and that's it, and it can go on the kitchen bench instead of on my desk
