I’m pretty sure they got the idea from Black Mirror…

Who is the goverment paying to install Windows?

Are you talking to the employer or the applicant, because it works both ways?

If Microslop went away one day, it would only improve my quality of life.

Of course you would know… 🙄

There are other expenses and location also plays a big role, but it is certainly true that solar is much cheaper when all is said and done. Hence why the energy transition continues in the US even without subsidies.

GrapheneOS currently relies on Google for both hardware and security updates. The Motorola thing is encouraging, but they never should have built on Google phones to begin with.

I wish I could opt out of interacting with men in more parts of society. Kind of crazy they weren’t doing this sooner.

The idea that markets are driven by rational decision processes is the biggest con they teach in econ 101.

There’s no reason to think that they won’t also lose US markets. I live in the US and trying to cut my reliance on US tech.

Buying used still inflates the price, giving Google more money. Plus, Google is now sending you firmware updates. I like Fairphone, and there are a few ROMs you can flash onto it. But unfortunately not grapheneOS. Maybe LineageOS (without MicroG) would be the least googly, but there would still be some Google bits and bobs you’d have to turn off. /e/OS is probably a bit more degoogled, except for MicroG, which is kind of a big exception. No android is completely degoogled, it seems. There is a promising Linux phone coming to Europe soon though, the Jolla phone, and I’m hoping it gets good reviews and then comes to the US.

I use Firefox, not interested in switching browsers, but from what I’ve read it doesn’t matter which browser I use. It’s on my to do list to try out jellyfin.

Yeah, I use Firefox, but I’ve also searched it and it seems that it just doesn’t work in Linux.

Cant stream Paramount+

They finally released what the casings said, some homophobic shit, but no “transgender ideology”.
