e came with App Lounge as their Store last time I installed it, but I got Aurora and F-Droid immediately for redundancy.

I agree with you, I have thought a lot about a hypothetical reality where people work paid jobs for 1 or 2 days a week (or 50-100 days a year) to do the things needed for society to function and spend the rest as they wish. It seems somewhat achievable compared to abolishing coerced work all together.

I’ve never seen anyone write it like that in English. It is understandable when you explain it, but it would normally be written simply as 1.25

Not mine! It’s stuck on 88:88

I tried a lot of things to keep my phone/screen usage down.l, including a dump phone. One day I got this brilliant idea to shut my phone off. That was way more efficient than any of the tricks I tried. When I need it for something I turn it on. I’ve since removed most fun apps from the thing.

I still have one game that I play, Lemmy, RSS and web browsers. Apart from those it’s mostly a bureaucracy machine with messaging, email, banking, MFA, work stuff, maps, lots of apps for managing tickets (it’s actually ridiculous), life trackers for some board games. Music, audiobooks and podcasts.

The smart phone is a convenient device that makes my life easier. I don’t whis to handicap myself when I can just turn the phone off instead. I also like to leave the phone at home if for instance I’m going to a party at a well known location.

It’s ok to cry 🤗

No, you are not allowed pizza little man

I disagree that barring a world leader from entering your jurisdiction is just political word play as you put it. I’m not sorry at all if that does not fit your world view.

I can’t say, as you say, we only see this from the outside. I obviously have no idea what they can and can’t tell. This seems to be on the nation state level and there’s so much bullshit burecracy to deal with at that level. If this continues to happen that is obviously bad, but it seems like an honest mistake to me. It’s the main reason that got me started in leaving Gmail many years ago.

Anyway, I have of course set up my own domain for email and can redirect it to another provider if need be, but I don’t think it makes sense to run away at the first sign of a company doing a fuckup either. All companies will fuck up eventually and that’s how they learn. It’s when they continue to fuck up, or deliberately does evil that I will leave.

No, because the point is to tell them they’re not welcome. Not being able to go to meetings in the UN in NY would be a big embarrassment for Israel or any other nation.

Are you seeing many people traveling to places where they have known arrest orders on them?

The fact that the leaders in question knows damn well which countries they will be arrested in probably have something to do with it. If Netanyahu is told he will be arrested if he comes to NY there’s a really good chance that he will not come to NY.

The leader of a Norwegian far left (not quite Marxist) youth party organization Rød Ungdom had to leave her position after she posted a sarcastic video about “oh no, how awful” it is that he died.

To be fair, she’s an extremist cunt and the parent party Rødt (Norwegian Red Party) have probably been looking for a godd enough reason to oust her for some time now.

Never heard of him before he died. He was obviously a cunt of the highest degree. In my country he would have been a right wing extremist and probably been canceled by most serious organizations. In the USA his views are apparently so normal that he got assassinated by someone that thought he was too much of a lefty?

I don’t care about him at all tbh. We get news of Americans killing each other everyday, I don’t see how he is much different from all the other murder victims. Because he had a stage and a following? Apparently he hated emphaty so I’m considering dishonering him by being emphatic…

How fucked up can a nation be? I would mourn my country if I was US American. Since I’m not all I can do is shake my head aphaty and think “oh well, they’ll just continue doing whatever they’re doing over there”

Eh, seems like a nothing burger to me honestly. It’s just normal procedure to lock it down first, then investigate and reopen when you get a request like this.

Whenever we get warnings about our customers accounts sending spam/phising we do a small investigateion, then they are locked before we contact the right manager and eventually someone contact the end user in question and we fix the problem or suspend the user.

It sucks for the user to be out of the loop for a few hours, and sometimes innocents get caught up in it, but it’s really the only way to deal with it.

Are anyone surprised criminals would use Proton? I bet they get a lot of take downs all the time and ignore most of them.

Looks like he’s either terrified or on coke/amf, probably a little bit of both tbh. Can’t blame him, anyone so wildly under qualified for his position should be terrified. And in his position he must have access to the white house medical cabinet.

I’m starting to think the satanists are on to something

I started doing things that I want, and if others join me, thats awesome, if noone comes along I’ll just go alone. I’ve met a lot of new people this way and it has worked wonders on my social skills.

It allows me to get a lot of new experiences without the hassle of having some miserable being tagging along. And it gives me interesting stories to tell when I meet up with my long time friends. Some of them even want to join some of my adventures.

In 5 years? Somewhere between running the country and on the streets. Hopefully I’ll be somewhere close to my current situation though.

This is what I do at work (IT), I learn just enough to get by any given task then move on to the nest thing. But every time I go back to do the task I understand it a little better and usually learn something new about the subject. “Learn to program” is such a weird thing to me. It’s like “learn to exercise”. The goal should be more like “do 5 push ups”, “run 10k” or whatever.
