Sounds like you really missed out

Maybe they were quoting Trump

Maybe there were dual booting Windows and then a Windows update broke the boot partition

just wanted you to know I actually chuckled at that!

I found the Lorex brand of products that stores footage locally. Internet connection is not required either, as it is either hardwired or paired directly with the NVR wirelessly.

Just out of curiosity, which distro did you end up using?

As someone who uses a Linux phone, this becomes more and more true everyday

I just sent the link for the watches to my MAGA cousin. Let’s see if he takes the bait!

I’ve only ever dreamed of pissing in the sink.

And I don’t mean that in the aspirational sense. Like, I literally have had dreams that I had to pee so I peed in a sink.

AI must be calculating the stats now

God intended for a monopoly, hence there must be an armageddon between Apple and Google

It’s sort of a paradox. Low adoption leads to less resources, bug reports, developer interest, etc. and that in turn leads to low adoption.

What works for me is daily driving my linux phone, and having a used regular smartphone sitting in a drawer, turned off, until I absolutely need to run an app that is not compatible with Waydroid.

You could probably stretch it to 10-12 hours if you turn all the hardware kill switches to off, which activates “lockdown mode.” It turns off every sensor on the device.

I daily drive a Librem 5. First thing to note is do not expect a well polished experience. Battery life is bad, only about 4 hours of light use, and 8 or so hours if left in suspend. It can do VoLTE, send SMS, use web apps and any apps coded with libadwaita or kirigami. Other desktop apps can be forced to scale on the display, but it won’t be perfect.

I use Signal desktop as my main means of communication on the Librem 5. I have a spare normie phone for setup, but Waydroid is an option. I do use Waydroid for a few apps that have no web browser equivalent.

Idk, all I can say is, you have to really want it to live with it. I don’t do gaming or heavy social media use or anything removed that, so it is just fine for me. But it’s definitely not for everyone.

More like they became an anxious doctor who spiral into self hate whenever they make basic mistakes.

My MAGA cousin sent me a YT short of a clip from the movie Gangs of New York. In the clip a character was ranting about how useless immigrants were, along with some dehumanizing comments, and the USA should get rid of them, with my cousin saying he agreed wholeheartedly.

I pointed out that the character was the villain of the story, and the scene was being used to showcase how much of a bad guy he was. Sadly, this did not spark an “Are we the baddies?” moment for him.

From what I read at the link below that doesn’t seem to be the case. They took a baseline of the poverty threshold in 1978 and adjusted for inflation every year. However that line seems to have been set suspiciously low to begin with.

I do the same. Some websites will not work claiming Firefox is not supported, but do some user agent spoofing and suddenly it works just fine. Just goes to show it is not actually the web engine that’s the problem.

I’m glad someone was brave enough to try the URL
