  TL; DR-- There are many good reasons for regular people to prefer GrapheneOS

  Hey, the security is nice, but I really like the detailed control over notifications, GMS prompts, and network access. When I used PixelOS, my phone did things I didn’t want it to, and it was hard or impossible to make it stop. On GrapheneOS, the defaults are a pretty good experience. I even recommend it to non-techies since they can use it with the Google apps and its still a more respectful experience, even if they don’t need or want the level of control that I like.

  Git itself is a distributed VCS…

  I think this was a joke

  People deserve to get paid on their work, and currently the best way to do that and survive in America is to work on completely closest source products that don’t respect their users. Open source is probably the most respectful but doesn’t work well as a business. We need something that works reliably for delivering real products that will achieve mass adoption. I think these source available licenses are that.

  The context in the article is important. Similar to what FUTO preaches-- people don’t donate. That’s why corporate solutions usually win. Better to charge a bit of money so we can have nice things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Matrix.org is Introducing Premium Accounts⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The plan was to rely on donations, which doesn’t usually work for hosted products.

  Or the post training is messed up

  Why don’t they do lay-down-only seats? Seems like you’d save the same amount of space or more with vastly more comfort.

  That is for sharing! I’m up to see what I can do on the UWS (signed up) but maybe that’s too far

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Life is unfair to landlords⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There are some people who own a bunch of properties and their job is maintaining them and dealing with the paperwork. And then there are some people who passively collect income and have a management company do that with no real connection to the place…

  Oh yes, unlike the French and Dutch…???

  I wish they would irradiate it instead of boiling. Irradiation is completely safe and preserves the nutritional benefits. But the raw milk people are generally opposed to that, and irradiation has a PR problem. Sadness.
