  • Calling is something that works in e.g. Postmarket OS. The trickier parts are NFC payments, lack of apps. So it comes with huge drawbacks. Some apps can even require that your device is verified by google and you have no way of hijacking it.

    Proprietary camera software is also a huge thing. Software can do so much thing and you pay for the software also, not just the hardware but you lose the software when you install something other than the factory default.

    And battery optimization is very young in desktop grade linux OSes, you won’t get that good battery life as with android.

    Don’t even mind them. They said AI can’t be useful because that’s a bullshit generator. Now AI is useful. Now they hate it for other reasons. They say that AI destroys the environment. But if everybody would run it locally on their own machine with the same energy demands they would be perfectly fine with it. The reasonable enemy would be the lack of energy efficient AI hardware, or anything else really but a technology, yet they hate the technology. It’s trendy here to hate AI, so they like to let you know that your tribe is not their tribe in a very heated manner.


  • You want the people fight for the better. That’s I think noble. But at the same time you argue against that the enemy is the government, and you put the blame on ordinary people instead. So you want people to fight themselves. I want people to fight the government. Law is the solution for many of these issues. E.g.: It’s not big pollution vs small pollution, I’d like NO pollution.

    You are having an imaginary enemy that you call as “liberals” which is the cause of all bad things. You can hate liberals, but please first know what does it mean to be liberal. Liberal means liberalism like, or somebody liking liberalism. Which is associated with capitalism.

    You are not using the right word. It’s like saying you hate dogs because they fly above you and shit on your clothes. That’s the wrong animal. It’s just dumb.





  • I use arch btw, it’s only effecting the arch user repository, which lives separately from the maintained repositories, it’s not even possible to download stuff from there with pacman. Really it’s just a community space, I also have packages there. You can download pre-packaged apps, so if you install them, you will be able to remove them with pacman. I think it’s a great concept.

    it’s like a forum where some jerk writes “use ‘sudo rm -rf /’ to speed up the computer”. Except you don’t have to read it to execute their plan.

    Flathub is also concerning btw. But at least those apps are containers (with too much permissions)
