Minimo launcher is great.

ScreenZen, with specific times ranges allowed to use given apps.

This to me is the most exciting thing. And not just solar, but also modular nuclear power, fusion power, battery tech. The PRC is at the forefront of this green revolution.

Dang, never heard this one before but its believable. MJ did put his all into baseball tho, his managers and teammates were convinced he would have made the majors after a year.

This thread from a few months ago on hexbear has a ton of good ones.

Both, yes

All speculation. You gave them your phone number (which also means your real identity), so you should assume they have it. And because its a US-based company, it must adhere to US laws including key disclosure laws, which make it illegal for any signal employee to tell you that any US government agency has asked for this information.

So the data that would be captured here is a network of hashed phone numbers and literally undecryptable messages

With this data you can build social networking graphs: who is talking to who, and when.

Also this is all the more suspect when you consider that US military / government agencies like OTF fund signal, and constantly try to push signal in privacy spaces.

I always assume the more popular it is, the more likely it is of being compromised.

I have no idea if it’s the case, but I switched away from mullvad after seeing billboards and ads of it everywhere, even on city infrastructure like trains and buses.

Like a solid 4th of trek episodes involve some sort of transporter malfunction. I’m not getting in one either.

Basically either the more honest, and less competent imperialists, vs the dishonest, more competent imperialists.

The US and Israel were trying to push the women’s rights angle with their manufactured protests, then bombed a girls school killing ~150 mostly schoolchildren.

I used photoprism for many years, and while its great, immich ended up being much better.

This ones my fave: https://amiunique.org/fingerprint

It shows the percentages of people who use your same browser features (called similarity ratios), and can determine whether you’re unique in their dataset. Can help for tweaking browser settings to try to make yourself not unique.

Was staunchly team vim for 15 years, but now I’m on helix. As another user stated below, its like if vim were re-designed today, and without needing any addons to be a code-aware editor.

I have this going continually.

Fill a quart mason jar with 15g of hibiscus flowers, add water, put it in the fridge, and wait till morning or evening. Filter it out into a water bottle, and repeat by adding more flowers.

Then once the jar is full after a week or so, make jamaica tacos with them.

I have yet to read this book, but The Palestine Laboratory is supposed to outline how a lot of the surveillance and weaponry used today are first developed and tested in Israel to aid the occupation, then exported to other countries.

It’s not just twitter, this software is also used by airbnb, linkedin, and paypal.

College / university in many countries.

In the US at least, its become such a parasitic industry, with tuition fees rising exponentially and far exceeding wage rates and job availability, that it accounts for a large portion of most people’s personal debt.

With so many applicants for so few jobs, a college degree is the new highschool diploma / “minimum requirement” for nearly every job now. 1 / 4 US adults have student loan debt, with an average of 40k in student loans.. Nothing is putting the brakes on degree inflation, tuition, or the student loan industry.

The US federal government also makes a killing off of student loan interest fees, most of which is going to the MIC and Israel.

They’ve made the product they’re selling you (a degree), both required, and extremely expensive; the ultimate goal of any parasitic industry. Its a dream for state and private colleges, the US government and its military, and a nightmare for people either without a job, or chained to their desks for fear of losing their job and getting further behind on loan payments.
