this is cool as hell

i can understand being dubious of WhatsApp given it’s closed source and owned by Facebook. but Telegram and WeChat? Both closed source and with very questionable encryption? Signal is the only clear answer.

also side-note, WhatsApp audits and analyses have all come back confirming it’s at least deploying the same end-to-end encryption as Signal, though stores a bit more metadata. so Facebook knows when / who you’re messaging. Telegram / WeChat are much worse in this regard. as an anti western imperialist i’d still choose WhatsApp over Telegram / WeChat for comms. though ideally none of the above for anything important

china is at least giving me hope on the climate change front

what’s your setup for this out of interest? are you running a Dev environment under tmux or something? 🤔

and that’s bad why?

I’m hooked already

I disagree, the judge declared the sentence time hinged on the girl being the ringleader of the two and specifically targeting the victim (at least partially) out of transphobia. it was only the cops that said it wasn’t related to transphobia, and frankly the cops in this country have a shite reputation for being transphobic themselves so chances they’d look over that are high.

news aside, dear lord there are some serious american imperialism shills in this thread

i sneeze full force but i don’t make much of a sound usually. they have been described by others as “pathetic”

impressive! got a source code link for those of curious?

damn, your mom was quite prophetic

* America poses the biggest danger to the world in 2024

of course it has to be westernized …

i can understand harm reduction in picking your vote, but that should totally go out the window after the genocide Biden actively endorsed and enabled. and i’m saying this as a trans person, someone that stands to lose out fairly substantially if republicans gains power.

if your “harm reduction” is voting for a genocide endorser then something is clearly wrong, and you need steer the fuck away from the polls and into some direct action (if you’re not already).

fucking please let this be it. we need this win

i distrohopped a lot until i landed on Void, then i just stayed because it does everything i need, it’s fast, understandable, easily tweakable, and rock solid

same. initially i was worried about the performance compared to “native” clients like Boost,Sync,etc but even as a PWA written in JS i have zero issues with it.

this is some Let’s Game It Out shit

Pixel 4 is a good choice imo, it’s what I’m currently using. It has a Snapdragon 855 with 6GB RAM which is very speedy day-to-day. Face unlock which works even in pitch black. Camera is great, even compared to current generation phones. it’s end-of-life from Google but it’s still officially supported by LineageOS and gets lots of commits.

it has a 5.7" screen, though with it having minimal bezels most of that is height so it’s not a big wide phablet type thing.

if you already have alternatives in mind I’d ignore my advice, but otherwise you’ll probably find it difficult getting still supported devices with displays in the 3-4" range unfortunately, just the way the market seems to have gone with phone designs :/
