Thanks for clarifying, haven’t messed with iPhones since 2015

What’s this photos app (is it multiplatform?) and are there requirements for the computer in terms of software it needs to run?

Otherwise Localsend or KDEConnect are friends for transferring files.

The same reason you don’t hear ultrasound sensors of cars when backing up. Microphones can only capture a certain frequency range, but you can still hear/feel those waves when they hit you

Thanks for the insight. Really goes to show, corruption always crashes and burns in the mid term. Looking forward to seeing those who engage(d) in corruption get what’s coming to them 🤗

It’s very subtle, and official travel recommendations have been updated to reflect the possibility of trouble when your passport details are not perceived as consistent. The public services move slowly, but anyone I know that this would apply to has long understood the language and has opted for avoiding travel to the states. It’s not like your life is ruined by not seeing Orlando ¯\(ツ)/¯

I feel this is a lack oft creativity. Protests need to be peaceful, but disruptive. In a car based society, protest by car? If 5,000,000 cars “meet up” in any given metropolitan area, that areas productivity goes to zero, those in power won’t even have any recourse, there aren’t enough police/towtrucks to counter this, and if so it would take days or weeks. Only coordinated driving and parking/traffic jam required.

Effective protest should instill fear in those in power - the message is, with the sheer number of people right outside your building, could easily crush you if they so choose. A few guards can not offer protection in this case. The idea is, with this realization, that violence is not a good escalation, as in the end the powerful few will never come out on top.

This only works if the powerful few actually believe the masses will go as far as needed to effect the demanded change.

From outside, it appears the US protests favor comfort over conflict, thus are viewed as lacking credibility and therefore, pose no danger to the power class. As long as the individual prioritizes their selves before acting as a collective, including taking the risk of collective punishment, the protest remains unbelievable, therefore ineffective and easily ignored.

Qwen go brrrr

Depends what device you run, but Xournal++ is useful. Otherwise pdftk.

the fact that GS sells shit in this state speaks more about their cocksucker business; the idea that you’re standing up for it - stonkdweeb adherent lol. get a fucking life.

Geez, who hurt you?

I’d argue, as long as there are “cocksuckers” that keep buying from them, regardless of these posts (I’ve seen at least 10 or 20 over the past years), there is very much a market to service. Just capitalisticly speaking.

It’s my daily driver. It has incredible compatibility and very nice features, for example the rule based filter actions, header matching, which immensely boosts my workflow efficiency. Not to mention the calendars and tasks integration and the great extensibility via the plugin system.

Thunderbird is a great example of community driven awesomeness.

I’ve been burnt by my unix arrogance enough times

Same here, haha. As long as you stay away from ideas like “compiling your kernel from scratch” you’ll be fine.

Look up which distros come with drivers/documentation for your hardware (different for many MacBook versions) especially the WiFi/Bluetooth chipset.

Don’t try anything fancy, unless you have a surplus of life energy and time to waste.

2010 MacBook Pro, still runs Arch with ease (back when I set it up I had more time than I do now, would go with a less DIY-ish distro nowadays, probably something Debian based)

The only chore was to get the RTC alarm wake up working, which was a bit hacky.

1.2e-10 to 1.3e-10 range

4.90 $ / month.

Had to use throwaway email to find out the cost. Scummy business practice and likely finable GDPR violation in the EU.

cutting people off from important information just because they live in a geographical region that doesn’t allow secret malware.

I think most disagree with your argument, that you need to tolerate ‘secret malware’ to access important information. That information can’t be THAT important or else it could be found elsewhere, completely without malware.

Everyone talks about this like it wouldn’t open a massive attack surface for the mother of DDOS.

Make the attestor slow or take it out, you take down large parts of their business. I don’t know, i wouldn’t put too much stake in a platform/website that could be taken out so completely.
