Good to know, thanks!

That Liberux phone looks pretty cool, though I'm not sure how Linux apps would work. Does it just use Android apps? I can't imagine too many Linux programs would work well on a phone, both because of the size as the screen as well as battery usage/background sleep.

What people in the comments here expect the average person to know about and do is pretty out of touch with reality.

Who was 400 years old from Krynn? Sylvara? It's been a long time since I've read those books.

Yep, drives me nuts when they call burgers sandwiches. If you gotta classify them together, call them handhelds.

Metal Gear Solid?

I'd argue that they wouldn't know what the danger is anyways.

To your first point, it's not even so much the tariffs; it's the threat to our Canadian sovereignty. A lot of Americans see it as a joke, but a president shouldn't be talking about their allies like that. We don't really expect better from that waste of skin, but the lack of a response from the average American about this specifically is a slap in the face from our closest allies.

Yep, different style of games. I need to give Factorio another shot, it seems really up my alley but I couldn't get into it.

I'd rather have a 20 hour game that is engaging the entire time than a game that has a ton of filler in it.

That would be hilarious if someone made a website showing how they are using pirated Nintendo games (complete with screenshots of the games, etc) to show how they are "training" their AI just to watch Nintendo freak out.

I feel like the Android client for ProtonMail is really slow. Switching folders is painful.

I also tried sharing calendars with my wife who is still on Gmail and didn't have great luck there. I decided I'll just forward invites to events to her, though I haven't had a chance to test that.

 

A notification popped up on my phone today talking about this. I hit the button to adjust the settings and found that it was opt-out.

No, I don't want my app usage being used for ads. I don't want targeted advertising at all, but none of our fucking countries will take a stand against this shit.

This might be the thing that finally pushes me to switch to GraphineOS.

There was a time that I felt like Google was one of the good guys; they seemed to be doing great things with their products and pushing Linux. Now I feel like I want to de-Google my life.
