or if they’re going to get breakfast or dinner soon.
To be fair, a lot of us don’t. The economy is rough these days.
about which distro to use and got a range of suggestions but none of them were arch.
I think Debian is usually the strongest contender here.
CalyxOS lets me run most safety net stuff…
SafetyNet is deprecated.

This is what i see on connect.
I’d take this feedback to your app dev. Here’s Voyager and Tesseract.
The pixel 8 was exciting because it was the 1st android smartphone which broke the usual 5 years of update cycle and jumped to 7 years.
The Pixel 8 also has MTE support.
Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro are ARMv9 devices supporting hardware memory tagging…Hardware memory tagging is going to provide a massive increase to protection against remote exploitation for GrapheneOS users. It’s the biggest security feature we’ll be shipping since we started in 2014.

…said not even an act of God would convince him to…
Good. They need that separation of church and state.
Nope, I’m out.
From the person you replied to, emphasis mine:
You could also start with just one of these
That’s the joke.
I’m hoping for a Pixel Tablet 2 with this (Pixel Tablet doesn’t have it, but the Pixel 8 does for some reason) and MTE security capability, and I’ll transition to that with GrapheneOS over a laptop.
I haven’t tested it personally, but I think GrapheneOS (easily the best Android OS for Pixels, in my opinion) has had it for Pixel 8s since the end of October 2023. Here’s a quick guide I saw: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/9775-pixel-8-desktop-mode-guide-and-personal-experience
A cool quote…but fictional and not applicable in the real world. Has “both sides are the same so I’m not gonna vote” energy, which let’s the greater evil win. Kudos for maintaining neutrality and helping screw everyone over.
When a power imbalance that vast is concerned consent doesn’t exist.
At the time, sure. However, over a decade after the fact:
Maintaining that her affair with Clinton was one between two consenting adults…
So if the power imbalance was why she consented, you’d think she’d set the record straight and say she was pressured or forced into it despite saying yes at the time. But she didn’t. Ergo, she consented and your argument is invalid.
The difference is that you are expected to pay. Louis and FUTO are very explicit about this.
I don’t really follow them, but I did skim the Grayjay FAQ, and it never says that. Just that they make money by selling licenses, no subscription, and it works identically without paying. I don’t suppose you have a source that is more explicit than the official Grayjay FAQ page?
Is Eternity still in development? I don’t think there has been a release for 6+ months.
I have left, I just view Reddit…
So you haven’t left Reddit. Like saying you left Google but still Google search without logging in.
Yes, you need an Internet connection at some point. This can be a cafe, a library, an office, your house, friend’s house, etc. As for controlled by the government, well, that depends on your country.
Worst case, if possible, you can move countries. I understand that might not be feasible, but my point is, you can move countries to escape the government and Internet restrictions. But the government locks your account/bank? Moving countries doesn’t fix that, and you’re locked out of any money you had there.
But even if I have a server, I’ll have to have my own separate Internet if I really want to be able to pay unrestrictedly.
Separate Internet? I mean, yes, you do need Internet. Not sure what you mean by “separate.” And you don’t need a server (node), though they are handy for privacy. You could choose one that is reputable.
Otherwise the government would just shut down my internet connection, right?
If they knew where it/your Internet was. All you really need is your phone or PC. You could use a cafe or library or cell tower or etc.
Nobody is doing that now, with regular money, either.
I think it’s more for ACH between banks as well as some banks have limits. Also, a government literally stepped in to actively block people’s accounts. Just because you can swipe your card and buy a soda, doesn’t mean there aren’t restrictions or people being blocked.
Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said Thursday financial institutions have moved quickly to freeze the accounts of people linked to the demonstrations in Ottawa, leaving an unknown number of protesters in financial limbo

Thai article reminded me to buy (and hopefully beat) KCD before KCDII comes out in Feb 2025.
On the Xbox store, the DLC bundle (no game) was normally $20, but 75% off so it was only $5. The game+DLC bundle was normally $40, but it was 90% off so it was only $4. Easy choice, even if I already had the game and no DLC
