I am absolutely looking forward to both.

Before too many people come in saying she needs a longer sentence just a quick reminder; The singular only reason she is serving time at all is because she stole money from other rich assholes. Had she just scammed the poor rubes likes us here as the top class is supposed to do she would probably still be on several boards and gotten press coverage as the "inspirational power woman who bounced back".
Can you elaborate?
The mental image of me looking at a qr code on my phone screen, and only then wondering how I would catch that on the phone's camera did make me laugh.
It needs an account to be fully readable
In ieder geval voor de komende paar maanden...
I know the topic of whether adblock is piracy is debated
Its not debated. Its bullshit.
flat earthers existing doesnt put the earth's sensual curves up for debate either.
why nvida sprecifically?
I have used Affinity for about 5 minutes. Not because it's bad, but because I'm not a designer and I'd first need to watch ten hours of YouTube before I can make a decent template for whatever. And no time for that yet
But I did buy the full suite, just because (1) everything I would ever make with it is my own property. (2) I own the software, not rent it and (3) fuck Adobe it can die in a ditch. I'll pay a 100 euros to your competition just because they are not you.
This is a very valid reason.
as others said the concept of email is already pretty good. But if you're worried about your data, simplest solution is to stop relying on free email services where you are the product (like google) and start paying for services whose business model is privacy (like proton).
As an addendum, what about the popular tools we use in our daily lives? The calendar, note tools, etc all are products of companies driven to maximize profits.
proton offers email, vpn, password manager, file storage, and calendar.
other companies also offer parts of that if you dont want to rely on the same company for all of it.
obsidian offers local, secure, and encrypted sync notekeeping.
For everything you mention there is a company who offers it, and who's business model is providing a good and secure service for a fee, and not "free"(paid by your ad profile).
Is there a community movement that can somehow mitigate this? Or is there really no choice for us?
Im possibly just really cranky from allergies so apologies if Im out of line, but this gives the impression of just wanting free crowdsourced solutions, instead of looking into the viable paid solutions that are already out there.
I've been a mod on a game subReddit. Mostly because there was only one active mod before and they couldn't handle it all. Game wasn't particularly universally loved so general internet hate and Reddit hivemind hate often spilled over into it. Why I did it? Because I enjoyed talking about that game in a positive environment.
In all honesty: the negative vibes on Reddit towards moderators took a lot of the joy out of it. Imagine temp banning someone because they keep calling racist slurs towards other users, then perma banning them because they continue, and then they start making new accounts over and over to send hateful messages towards you. Then you browse some Reddit for your own leisure only to read the general consensus that all mods are powerhungry faggots.
End result was worth it though, I guess? Sub is in a good place now. Positive vibes, and little bullshit. No longer an active mod though, because without RIF I don't have to proper tools to keep moderating from phone. Can't even enjoy it the way I used though. Bitter? Slightly. But I have good hopes about my new online social environment here.
