I'd still be using Ubuntu sometimes if it weren't for the snaps thing. They only make sense for proprietary software... but snaps still suck. I don't like packaged software. They contain all kinds of things that can't be updated. The app store was getting better before all that changed. Now Debian seems better, but I still prefer source based distros like Gentoo because the ingredients come with recipes.

Support matrix!! It already has international support, just needs to be a bit better with stickers and qol stuff. I've been using it for years. It's nice to know I don't have to worry about my privacy at all with chat rooms that can continue on without the original server.

It's not actually possible to return one of these cyber trucks due to rules involving sale after purchase.

+1 for decentralized or federalized services gonna plug matrix here I've used it for 5 years avoid using matrix.org homeserver

It doesn't matter if it is a business entity operating under a government then you can never really know because gag orders. Centralized servers can be blocked. Telegram and Signal apps could have a back door. This is why open stack is important. And not just the code. Also encryption is default for p2p one on one conversations. It's not in channels by default because it can complicate public use.

It cannot be easily blocked especially if you use your own homeserver every homeserver replicates the channel and it can operate without the original server! That's why signal and telegram are inherently flawed.

Yeah I've been trying to figure out why republicans want to cancel student debt forgiveness so bad as it literally taking money out of the economy. Even worse, that money is already spent. I guess they assume people just hold onto all that extra money, now the government wants it back... Like what the duck. My credits already shot because of this mess.

Most of the time my desktop is covered, so I use folders on the toolbar

I don't really want to use Amarok, I much prefer the notoriety and active support that strawberry has. I used Amarok for a long time and it died. I would much prefer contributions to strawberry be made. Maybe it can be revised or something. I'm certainly not waiting till end of 2024 for a buggy replacement of something that already works well. By all means contribute anywhere you liked but it seems like a duplication of effort

Brace for offline mobile LLM assistants!

Let's hope they are smart enough not to test the resolve of a real democracy.
