Ahh but you see they also revile fat people.

That would be tragic, but indications point to him being actually ideological

Sometimes women, you can connect with them better on an emotional level as opposed to men.

Not just women ofc, but generally people who have been socialized to be more empathetic.

I feel like a part of the issue is the quality of the friends out there (including pov). Sure if you get “adopted” by a cool friend or group it’s easy to follow their lead, but so many of us don’t actually know how to be good friends.

We don’t let individuals own nuclear weapons. We shouldn’t allow individuals to wield financial weapons.

For once I would like to see the powerful people feel devastated

What part of this is hot

Eh if the behaviour is changing then I think it’s normal and good that the associated unit tests should also change.

Obviously you can get annoying with unit tests, but if they’re tiny and fast, and trivial to update then I like them as a truth check that the behaviour is changing as I expect.

lol I’m imagining a line item on all transactions like

    Subtotal 13.21
        Taxe 6.02
Platform fee 6.33
   Yacht fee 10.00

Total      $35.56 CAD 

Yeah they were ahead of Steam there for a while.

Wow Amazon Prime and Nestle. I know I shouldn’t shame my fellow captives, since I’m sure I’m doing something that another person would find reprehensible

I’m hoping it’ll be like with the desktop ecosystem – as the mainstream mobile OSes enshittify, more people (and developers) will be driven to use (and contribute to) the linux alt.

Sure, but someone will without a doubt add the functionality. They always do. Seems to be the case with anything linux.

literally burned an entire morning because I have a shift that starts at 13h 🙈

Without a doubt. That’s pretty minor, considering I don’t think I’ve ever adjusted call volume in my life.

Like desktop level. Password protected. Encryption would be nice. As for reliability, I’m willing to put up with slowdown, waiting up to a minute to open apps, and maybe 2 hard crashes a day, if it means I get a fully free phone, or at least as close to it as we get now.

I like Graphene, but I’m at the point where I would put up with less security for more freedom – I just wouldn’t put anything actually sensitive on my phone.

It’s kind of silly that my phone should be an everything-device.

Or really, I just do my banking on the laptop.

Can’t you use a browser for banking? That’s what I do.

Right they hate these straw people. I mean, I;m not going to say my own cognitive projection of “conservative” is 100% accurate, but at least my nightmare scenarios are about actual bad things happening, and not like conservative nightmares of genetically inferior people getting to enjoy the gifts of civilization.

So… huh, so what’s the alternative then? I guess some other flavour of linux?
