Glad to see another Linux phone being added to the current handful - the more, the merrier.

I guess for Americans they can look into the PinePhone by Pine64. There are probably a few other manufacturers out there too.

Can’t the US government and their enablers just calm down about waging wars? They’re quite literally one of the biggest issues of this world, and they think that they’re not the problem…

It’ll definitely switch to local. The electricity and water bills for these AI data centres are enormous, and it’s not getting any better. They’ll either cut it off due to being unsustainable regarding their profit margins, or some laws will curb them down due to wasting Earth’s resources. OpenAI has been operating at a loss since it started, and it’s only sustained by external investments, and it’s not the only case of AI being unprofitable.

Thank you! I’ve had the pleasure to notice Lemmy (or this particular instance) is more of an open thinker space, and that’s great to see. It really reminds me of the Internet before the corpos got their hands to squeeze every penny out of the average netizen.

Then that’s great, at some point Mullvad’s browser development slowed down and I had the impression that it was abandoned. Glad that it isn’t.

And of course Vivaldi isn’t the best option out there - it’s just one of the least offending Chromium browsers. Mozilla itself isn’t in too great shape either, sketchy politics and they’re on life support from Google funding.

Firefox forks though? Quite good stuff out there. I’ve heard some recent praise for the Zen browser in particular.

And if you’re on macOS, then Orion browser is a great option (and WebKit-based).

I made the switch to Lemmy today, feels old school kind of good.

Reddit is not only allowing for bots to run rampant, but also it’s managed by the Epstein class and their supporters.

Good for them, I guess. Petrodollar won’t last forever, and it shows.

I wonder how prices of international goods usually valued in USD would fare if USD could become much cheaper than EUR, etc.
