Interesting, completely unrelated but fun fact: the nazis hated Catholics and all Christians, they tried banning and corrupting it but failed. This is because they were worried that Christians had too much empathy.

You may indeed :3

Ah yes as we know people in the 19th century didn’t purchase sweets like coca cola (1886) and Turkish delight (conflicting data but could go back to 1777, the Byzantine empire, or sefavid Persia but possibly earlier). Also as we know the concept of markets is a crazy new idea and we have absolutely no extensive written records of ancient civillians having markets where people would barter and trade goods.

I once had a HP laptop, then the hinge got rougher, it became harder to open it up, then the screen popped off and the hinge broke

HP sucks, their products suck, and I hope they crash and burn

Thanccs :3

I wish there was a TV with absolutely no built in smart features and a slot in the back for a compute module (like a RP CM5).

Counterpoint, we have the Cosmic Desktop (or at least an alpha for it) and tbh its pretty cool :3

I drew this in roughly twenty minutes with a peice of scrap paper and a broken pen held together by a hair tie, I think it counts (im not very good at doodling)

Tax the rich? Its far too late for that

It had some of the absolute greatest and the most depraved the internet had to offer. In my opinion Pepe is the greatest representation of 4chan, it can both easily be used for wholesome purposes or it can be extremely racist. It certainly left the greatest impact on the internet out of any website which is kinda funny because they were never relatively large. Now theres a 4chan shaped hole in the internet, and I hope its not filled by them flocking here.

The answer is likley never, GOS devs dont trust Fairphone devs (due to poor security practices) and Fairphone devs are unwilling (in some cases unable) to meet the extremely high standards for GOS.

Truly proof that gamers are the most oppressed people, its so joever /s

Not really, but I am sick and tired of Wikipedia haters constantly using every tiny mistake to prove “Wikipedia cant be trusted”. Granted they still use the age old lie of “anyone can edit it” and “nobody moderates it”.

It only takes a single incident like this for people to completely loose trust in Wikipedia, granted Wikipedia was already put to an insanely unreasonable standard.

I have absolutely no faith in this project whatsoever, there is a 99% chance itll fail like all Linux phones and tbh they all deserve to. Not a single mobile Linux OEM has even the slightest idea what the average person wants, hell im a highly technical Linux enthusiast and it doesn’t even do what I want. The average person wants:

1. Long battery life
2. Fast charging
3. A good screen
4. Decent performance
5. A good camera
6. Software good enough to tie everything together in a cohesive experience (this one especially they lack in)

Meanwhile more technical people (such as myself) want:

1. Good security (both hardware level security and software level security)
2. A relockable bootloader (with it being locked from shipping)
3. Extended software support (including firmware and microcode updates)
4. The ability to seamlessly work on multiple different sim networks
5. Longevity (I should not need to get a new one once every three years)
6. Reparability
7. Software that can accommodate technical usecases without falling apart

Meanwhile Linux phones:

1. Can be a portable programming station (why??? No genuenly why would anyone want to do this??? Just get a cheap Thinkpad)
2. Can run desktop software (ok thats neat I guess but not neat when all the software is optimized for desktops, the downsides to this completely overshadow any tiny benefit this may provide)
3. Have support for multiple mobile Linux distros (congratulations, you have multiple choices and they all suck)
4. Have support multiple WMs/DEs (and they’re all either under maintained, not maintained at all, or they just suck)
5. Have extensive software customization (its a phone, why on earth would I want that???)
6. Are cheap (sometimes, also I can just get a cheap used Google Pixel 7)
7. Run faster (except not when you take into account the significantly worse hardware)

Thats why the Linux kernel has a massive amount of CVEs, its extensively audited and researched.

Oh no, does that mean shes going to intern Japanese people and be extremely racist?

I wish AOC could be the new FDR
