From the Owl Research Institute
Our biologists and volunteers need Apple iPhone devices to run specific field software that works with GPS. If you have an old iPhone 7 or newer just sitting around, we'd appreciate you making a tax deductible donation. Please make sure to erase/reset the phone (so we don't get any of your personal data) and mail to Owl Research Institute: PO Box 39, Charlo, MT 59824 THANK YOU!
I've got a few of these laying around and will definitely be sending them in!
Awesome! I knew someone on here had to have some. I'm sure they will greatly appreciate them!
Pretty much every org I post stuff from is run entirely by donations of money or supplies.
there is a Facebook link in the body of this post and I clicked on it
HISSsssssssss

With all the FOSS and privacy people here I can't tell if you're actually annoyed or not...
If so, you know better than to blindly click on links! π
If not, I do try to make it so you don't actually need to click any of my links, especially the Facebook ones because I know lots of people don't want to go there. I was ready to close my account before I started doing these posts. It's the only real way to get the info from all these rescues though, so now I use it more than ever.
I mainly add the links just to give credit for the photos or for people if they want to volunteer or donate.
Hah, not actually that annoyed, just being a internet goblin I guess.
Though, I was reading on my phone (client: memmy) so I couldn't mouse over it to see where it went. I wouldn't have clicked on it if I knew it was facebook.
Fair enough. It did get me to figure out how to check links in my app after you mentioned it.
Apologies!
You might be interested in the app URLCheck (fdroid), which shows a popup when you click a link giving you the ability to check and change it before opening it. I dont know if there is anything similar for iphones if you are on one of those.
Thanks, Iβm on an iPhone (Iβm waiting for an excuse to replace it for an android. So far itβs lasted 5+ years and it hasnβt degraded enough to justify buying a new phone)
If you hold the click, not sure on Iphone, but on Android usually you can share the link and usually in that screen the link appears. Other ways can exist if it shows to copy the link or similar.
Neither of these methods work for links in post bodies or comments on iOS memmy, thanks for the tips though
Do you have a website or something i would like to read more. I personally dont have iphone but i will ask people around me
I couldn't find anything other than what I shared, so I sent them an email to see if they can share any info. If I hear back, I'll certainly share it!
I did get an update on what they are using the phones for. I'll make a new post on it. It's fairly interesting.
Thanks for sharing! I have a 7 collecting dust and this seems the perfect way to put it to use.
That would be amazing! The owls and their people will be thrilled!
O RLY?
