Where did you buy it from?

Churbleyimyam ,

A cool app or would be where you tell it how much money you can spare to donate to projects and it tells you how much to give to each of them based on how much time you spent using them. You could even go on to combine this with others on a website, so that the payouts to each project are bigger.
There are so many people like us who want to donate to our favorite projects but don't because it feels too complicated. It could make a huge difference.

Churbleyimyam ,

Makes sense! I have it from the Debian repo but haven't set up my studio space and got deep into it yet. What were the issues you were having from the older repo version?

Churbleyimyam ,

I'm still not going to pay them a subscription. No subscriptions for software for me, Adobe.

Churbleyimyam ,

It's getting harder to remain compassionate towards people who keep using chrome.

Churbleyimyam ,

This is awesome. Like chucking some frozen prawns under the floor boards when your landlord kicks you out.

I am genuinely horrified to see how much data google collected from me

I created a google takeout and in that zip file I found some files containing a ton of data about me. It has logged every single page I visited while using the google search engine and chrome browser. It even logged every single time I opened an app on my old android phone. It even has VOICE RECORDINGS of me and a log of every...

Churbleyimyam ,

Look at which devices are supported my grapheneos, calyxos, /e/os and ubuntu touch/droidian and get the newest one of those that you can afford. Usually a google pixel (ironically) but also fairphone are well supported and are better IMO.

Churbleyimyam ,

You can also use GPS location without any google services running, it just takes a bit longer to find your position when you first connect. OsmAnd or Organic maps from f-droid, which are actually superior apps to google maps in a lot of ways, particularly OsmAnd.

Churbleyimyam ,

Anybody with access to your finger, which means they don't need you to be conscious or even alive to access your phone.

Churbleyimyam ,

Data has become even more valuable with AI. All big tech outfits are incentivised to collect it now. Combine that with them being able to and you're left just having to trust them.
If you plan to use their stuff that is.

Churbleyimyam ,

Needing a password/pattern instead makes them want to keep you alive tho.
Good opsec.

Churbleyimyam ,

The suspect was later arrested in possession of a severed finger and a dank porn stash on the victims mobile phone

Churbleyimyam ,

This is very cool. Bookmarked.

Churbleyimyam ,

Yeah buddy. It's still getting updates; for how long though depends on the developers of course. Use it and bung them a donation! You can even install full Linux apps on it via Libertine, although it's slightly easier on Droidian IIRC. Very, very cool stuff.

    I've done this before to family members who want lifts on my day off.
    "Yeah sure. I've had a few pints but if you don't mind then I don't. Oh ok, no worries then, catch you soon."

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Haha. They know what they are doing.
    I assume that if someone won't say outright what they are proposing it's because they suspect I won't want to do it or else they are simply bored and want me to amuse them. I feel incredibly cynical but am usually right unfortunately.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Good until you spill a Cuppasoup on it's chinesium keyboard.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Store it in your bosses garden.

    What can you get to within a 15-minute walk of your house?

    A recent YouGov survey asked Americans what they think they should be able to get to within a 15-minute walk of their house.

    Of these choices, I can currently walk to all of them from my apartment, aside from a university (no biggie, I'm not currently studying, although there is a Tafe within walking distance), a hospital, and a sports arena.

    How many can you get to with a 15 minute walk from your house?

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Not my comment but they might be referring to the idea that it is a ploy to make people get rid of their cars and therefore become less independent.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Probably afraid of getting shot at.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Play Super Tux 2 on anything for free.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Check out YUNOhost. It's an open source operating system for servers which comes with email already set up. You can install it on a cheap VPS or home server and easily manage it graphically via web portal.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    The fun life of an Apple customer.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    I'm not even outraged by this stuff any more. If you're ok with subscription models it's your own fault.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    I think that you, me and zoidberg from the previous reply should go into business together making retrofit steering wheel airbags for older cars.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    Blue pill: I would die of boredom if I had to go back to school for more than a couple of days.

    Churbleyimyam ,

    So what? I have to wait about 5 seconds anyway because I have a slow internet connection. No big deal. 5 seconds of not watching a youtube video is probably good for you.
