Agreed, but it still is the only device that can run GrapheneOS.

Also, NATO did not "expand its territories". Sovereign countries that saw the Russian aggression seeked membership to be protected.

MacOS, iOS and stock Android, too for that matter. Dark times.

BTW for the uninitiated: That's the actual quote from the former federal drug officer. No joke - we wished it was.

The German fascist party AfD is largely bankrolled by Putin. Go figure.

Unlimited for seven or so years now, never regretted it in the slightest. I feel like they throw some bonus to you whenever they can - under promise, over deliver. I've been burned a lot by companies that became evil over time, hence I'm careful with praise but so far Proton has been one of the most pleasant customer experiences I had.

Yeah, same as wood, who would build houses out of that? /s

Hay is great insulation and it's sealed with protective material anyway in modern houses. Also, even if not: Some tribes make houses out of hay or straw and those houses are quite great in their particular circumstances. There are experiments to use hay bales for structural support as well and it holds up surprisingly well.

Also, fun fact: wooden houses are less dangerous in case of fire than houses made of steel and concrete because the steel rod reinforcements start becoming soft at low temperatures (~200°C) and crash. Wooden houses announce crashing when burning, concrete buildings don't.

In my experience, gaming in Linux works even better than on Windows. Every game I installed so far was supported by proton.

The main thing holding Linux back is professional software I think. If Photoshop and the likes are supported better, a lot of people will switch and find out that they also can play games on Linux.

Thank you! Finally someone speaks out, too. Singapore is a totalitarian capitalist dictatorship and the closest thing we have to a true cyberpunk dystopia. It is a horrible place with clean sidewalks.

I see no reason to use any other browser than Firefox and maybe Librewolf.

Maybe it's that homophobia and transphobia are so dominant on more popular platforms that there is a natural migration towards more free and liberal platforms. I always wondered why you see more and more racism, hate and such degeneracy the larger a platform becomes.

Fühl ich. Ein Freund von mir hat die Gabe, in solchen Situationen total cool und freundlich zu bleiben und diesen Leuten ihre Idiotie klar zu machen indem er sie einfach wirklich ernst nimmt. Meistens werden die dann aggressiv und defensiv aber haben absolut keine Angriffsfläche. Und nie hab ich dann Popcorn dabei!
