They will claim: “He is always sleepy and slow, and SUDDENLY he is fast and upbeat? He must on some stimulants! We cannot have a President on stimulants!!”
I guess only in the sense that both parties are right wing? One is just extreme in that direction?
Because of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unPVf0sqAKI and also: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-batteries-range/ and also: https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/news/2023/09/11/is-your-car-spying-on-you--almost-certainly--new-report-says
I can go on and on. I love the tech, I hate the companies. Plus: the build quality just does not seem to be existent in this space.
I agree, west Taiwan will eventually fall back into the hands of the people in Taiwan. And the country will be whole again.
Hamas is a result of hoe Israël has been handling the issue for decades now.
I’m not saying Hamas is fine, great, innocent or anything. Far from it. But the blame is on both sides.
I would actually pay for Youtube Premium Family, where it not for the fact that it does not work with gsuite accounts (which I have for my family).
We have spotify for the family, and I would cancel that and switch to youtube and music premium of google. For three dollars more we get ad-less youtube as well as music.
Sorry google, gotta pay attention to these things.
I second that request, I need to know more and read more about all of this and all of the sides, before I know what I’m talking about.
I remember there used to be an idea floating around of paying pennies for sending email a few years ago. It would combat spam, since it would not be economically viable to send millions of emails. It failed; since it would kill email, no-one wanted to pay and lock access rights to a certain group of people.
Elon is claiming he wants this for combating bots and scraping. Whether true or not, he will realize soon enough though that people will not pay for it. (Perhaps even find out it’s not bots, but actual people downvoting him)
(At the same time, it’s a bad thing we do not want to pay for good journalism/info, it leads to free ad-riddled sites with shitty click-baity content. The good stuff is behind paywalls, and therefore not available to the general public. This leads to a breeding ground for conspiracy theories. Since those are available for free (they want the message out there) and the actual researched stuff is hidden behind those paywals)
The fun part is… My printers are always recognized by Linux. Never by windows. I need to always download all kinds of stuff for windows.
Same thing for all of the other stuff in my computer. It’s already in my Linux kernel. For windows I have to search for simple things like sound drivers!!!
So I’d say: Linux is easier!
Most people will switch smartphones anyway. Nothing you or I can do about it I’m afraid.
Better we get then hooked on fairphone then.
If you can sell or give the old phone to someone else, they are also displacing a non-fair phone. So filling the market with fairphones (That are still supported) is a GOOD thing. And you are still supporting the company, and all the people they pay as well.
I pre-ordered already.
Ok, so honesty time: The fact that this company is good for the environment, pays people well, etc… is NOT my main “thing” for wanting to own this phone.
It’s the fact that it is open. I can unlock and flash whatever I want, I can fix things by ordering replacement parts, a new screen is TOTALLY do-able both price wise and doing it myself.
Also it does not come with bloat, or vendor-lock in software like on ALL samsung shitty phones.
Out of all the phones, this one makes the most sense.
(And my current FP4 goes to my mother, perfect for her and many more years of support)
As a parent of two boys, i feel that much of the annoyance of no-children-having people is due to parents not putting boundaries for children in place.
Children scream because of attention. It means they are not getting it.
Start walking around with the kid to calm it down. Its your job as a parent. You cannot stay seated and act like “what are you gonna do? They are children ! They scream!”
No. You are a bad parent for letting them just scream.
Having said that, babies sometimes just scream without reason. Perhaps, and I mean this, if you have a baby that is prone to doing this, do not travel in confined spaces, or dine at restaurants until that phase of screaming is over.
Tell me 1 good deed done in the name of religion that could not have been done without religion.
There are numerous heinous deeds done in the name of religion because it told them to do it…
People are people, they will do bad and good things. But religion always makes them worse because they put themselves above others.
The religious are only persecuted by other religions and currently religions are persecuting the non believers. (Christo fascism in the USA as a prime example)
And lastly, if churches would start paying their fair share of tax. No one will need to donate ever again.
Islam says (for instance) that they have the final word of god. Thats pretty damning in and of itself. It leaves no room for anything else.
Christianity had been used through the ages to commit the most heinous crimes against humanity. They still do.
We should try a world without religion.
This is why so many “founding fathers” around the world, including the US, did not want religion to play ANY part in politics.
We should return to their plan on this point.
It’s weirder then that: The reason is: “It’s god’s plan that you became pregnant, and if you do not survive, that’s god’s plan too. We just need to trust the plan”.
It’s one of the reasons why I strongly believe religion is the source of all things evil.
Hell yeah, debian stable on my servers and testing on my laptop. #perfection
