Another reason to check out eOS. F-Droid is a standard source for the default app store, along with the usual play store apps. I just got a Fairphone 5 last week, an installed eOS. I’m loving it so far.

"In superconductors, the electrons act like two reticent people at a dance party. At first, neither person wants to dance with the other. But then the DJ plays a song that both people like, allowing them to relax. They notice one another enjoying the song and become attracted from afar – they have paired but have not yet become coherent.

Then the DJ plays a new song, one that both people absolutely love. Suddenly, the two people pair and start to dance. Soon everyone at the dance party follows their lead: They all come together and start dancing to the same new tune. At this point, the party becomes coherent; it is in a superconducting state.

In the new study, the researchers observed electrons in a middle stage, where the electrons had locked eyes, but were not getting up to dance."

This is an awesome ELI5.

Oh god I remember doing that too. Those “programs” were the best. I even mad sure to make the code long, so that even if someone thought to take a look at the code they would have to scroll for a while to find the notes.

It’s about how they do it. They achieve this not only by being incredibly efficient through exploiting thier employees, but also by systematically destroying competition, and using thier marketplace to unfairly favor thier own products.

It’s techno-feudalism, here’s a great presentation/interview about it:

Depends on your requirements. The faiphone 5 has 8GB of RAM, which is more than enough for what I’m doing with a smartphone.

Oh course I totally understand what you are talking about though, for many users (mobile gamers, people who don’t mind google/apple telemetry, etc.) 8GB is a bare minimum.

Nice.

I agree about that today, but it wasn’t always so easy to install linux for noobs as it is now.

It may be easy to forget, but Ubuntu was doing “easy jnstall” better than moat linux distros for a long time. I bet there are a lot of non-programmer-linux-daily-driver folks out there that got started on ubuntu. I’m one of them.

Bazzite Ich bin auch da und ich bin auch nicht so der Typ der sich so gut auskennt wie ich es mir vorgestellt habe.

Holy shit my keyboard knows me well. Lol.

That’s a valid criticism.

On the other side: Pay for a year at once and get 3600 searches/year. The rollover also doesn’t happen, but the effect is drastically reduced. Also get a discount overall.

I’m not saying that kagi is perfect, but fuck google sideways. Eat the rich. Pay for the product or you are the product.

Outward is made to be played by two players. It’s a really beautiful survival rpg with difficult combat.

For me it is, apparently for you it is not. We have different use cases. That’s cool.

Just to be clear, I’m not here to judge. Everyone has thier own life with it’s multitude of little and big decisions. It would be presumptuous and ignorant of me to assume what applies to me also applies to you.

The focus should be on helping each other to make informed decisions.

That’s the price of privacy. Google has that traffic data because there are so many drivers with thier app installed. If you are OK with a giant corporation monitoring your every move, then of course that convenience is a good reason to use thier services.

Data is the new oil.

Only if she is into that sort of thing.

Also a great idea, I didn’t know that.

Obsidian is awesome, and obsidian publish costs money but it’s very easy to use.

I agree with you. I just felt it necessary to inform those that read comments and not the article itself. Especially because (here’s my opinion) I feel that if you don’t pay for a product, then you ARE the product. Even if Kagi isn’t perfect, the payment model should be supported to foster this kind of internet.

I read the article, and nothing in there seems to be a valid criticism of Kagi as a search engine. It’s all about the founder not understood GDPR, or how Kagi wasted money on free t-shirts, or the writers personal opinion on AI.

This is largely an opinion piece. It has merit as such, but please don’t take this article as factual journalism.

Just FYI, bazzite is amazing. It’s made for gaming, and it. Just. Works.

Pcloud, NordVPN, Tidal, reMarkable sync

I’d use Obsidian Sync too if I used Obsidian across devices. I just back my vaults up in the cloud.

It’s also why I love it here. Actual discourse without (much) shouting mindlessly at each other.
