Thank you, I missed that

Most of this is right, but needs some things corrected.
LOS is kept up by individual maintainers of the devices, and so it can cover more of them. But that also means you expand your attack surface to lineage, maintainer, microg, etc. And that’s just on supported devices. Unofficial devices are even more wild-west, having much delayed releases, OS updates, security updates, everything.
Not only that, but Lineage requires that you unlock your bootloader and often have your phone rooted to be able to do everything. This introduces special points of insecurity and possible issues in the future.
GOS is from a single source, for a single line of phones, and uses a designed method to load cryptographically signed ROMs onto the device, and then validate updates using the same method. The Play Services are sandboxed and disabled by default, so you can just never use them if you want. Overall, this makes for a more cohesive device. One that is more private and more secure. Especially so, when you can buy a new Pixel device and have guaranteed updates for as long as Google will do so for the same device.
Lol nah, you weren’t clear about not dismissing one view at all. I didn’t get my feelings hurt, I used a literary structure of reversing the message to counter what you said, and I’d say it was pretty effective.
And please don’t do that smarmy “u mad bro” schtick, because your word choices betray you. This wasn’t a balanced and nuanced take. "Sentimentality … far beyond your capacity to understand … Some people are just simple … " vs “bigger than you … advancing humanity, easing suffering, and understanding the universe … the drive to discover, to create and to shape the future of the planet”. Your own preferences speak volumes. Now compare mine. What you read into my message is far more indicative than what the actual info is.
Maybe you were trying to say something different but your message was lost and muddied.
People tend to value what makes them feel important more than the things that they do not want to or cannot participate in emotionally. It’s easy to prioritize career and personal achievements over providing support and fulfilling the promises you made to others in making a community, something far bigger than you. Over advancing humanity, easing suffering, and understanding each the universe within each other. When those things are far beyond your capacity to understand and capability to do, they hold less interest to you than the simpler things you were conditioned to strive after in capitalist propaganda or toxic machismo. Accolades, success, and recognition are incredibly important and compelling. But so is the drive to heal, to create and to shape the future of the planet through love. Some people are just simple, though, and like things to remain simple.
Those who can, do it. Those who can’t, manage it. Those who don’t even comprehend, criticize it. By regurgitating platitudes.
Just don’t use a window envelope
Highly agreed, and I came from Standard Notes most recently. Desktop, web, mobile, syncing, and does it all well enough I bought the upgraded pro version to support the model
He’s a sysadmin and he doesn’t do downtime
Of all the dumb things you’ve said, this is the dumbest. I bet serious money you’ve never lived in any of these areas, and just because less people live there doesn’t mean no one would notice you setting up a farmstead on their property and either call the sheriff or enforce their rights themselves.
Not to mention the government wanting their taxes or permits and throwing you in jail once they got wind of anything. Homeless people get assaulted, their belongings destroyed, And their lives ruined every single day in even tiny towns in the Midwest. You’re not escaping society there, it’s very conformist. This has big high school libertarian energy
Yes we do, money started around temple societies in the fertile crescent to control people and keep them centrally located.
Also, there is no known historical example of a purely barter economy. What’s known now is everything tended to work on an informal gift/reputation economy.
Until money came along, was typically forced upon people, and then if the money system failed, people fell back to a barter system. Neither money or barter are natural for the vast majority of human time and society
Aw man, I had no idea they sold
You weirdo, it’s in reference to a famous meme
Good news:
moon’s no longer haunted
They’re the best!
To be fair, this is how the YouTube algorithm requires big channels to act to maximize views, ads, and money. They’ve got way too many people reliant on that income to do anything different than exactly what best optimization strategies work
People make fun of Enya’s music but it’s really well produced and exactly what she likes to make. What a great life, making art you love, really well, never touring, and living with your cats in a castle
Unless its something like Bitwarden where you can use it even if they go offline, can take an encrypted or unencrypted backup of your local passwords/accounts, and are FOSS so you can easily self-host your own version if anything happens where you want to cut ties (thanks Vaultwarden!). They’re an awesome company and one I highly suggest supporting with a paid account
