Yeah, but for those on a budget that subscription is a pain point. So long as you can afford it easy it is good because you are no longer the product, but that will keep allot of people at bay.
You think that there aren't people who might need a Smartphone for work or medical emergencies? That is a non-zero number, so no. However should we have everyone's base needs met before others get past a certain point before luxury goods? Yes. Should we be able to do that now AND have luxury goods? Also Yes. Is it alright for people to have a Billion Dollars before that? Definitely No.
From someone where poor alcoholics drink Listerine to get drunk despite how hard it is on their body, it is nothing like bourbon and a scourge on humanity. My city took it off of user shelves and behind the counter at stores and pharmacies until lobbying got their way.
Oh and btw it only works short term and doesn't even cover half the causes of bad breath.
Startpage is good, anonymized, and respects privacy. You will encounter ads and cards, but they can be blocked. Fully usable and functional with or without an account. It is also themeable with a dark mode. Results are pulled from Google, but DDG's results were pulled from Bing and anonymized.
Since I started using it I raaaaarely open Google's search.
Food is food. Do what you want to do to your food because you are eating it. Other people aren't eating it so they don't get a say. If most people saw what the original pizzas were they wouldn't recognize them and some wouldn't like them, including modern Italians.
Tabasco, in my opinion, is just like eating a pizza with peppers or a bunch of pepper flakes on it, or as I sometimes do, ground cayenne pepper.
If you don't want to use Steam you can use the Heroic Launcher that does Epic and other games, especially itch.io games.
Actually my 54th Birthday is comming up in a couple of months. Good job but sooo close.
Watters has always gone so beyond the pale I am sure his stuff is all an over the top act that he is being paid for. I wouldn't be surprised if one day it comes out that he got rich AND was funneling dark money to the Democrats at the same time.
I am younger than Woodstock and "The Summer of Love" but older than Disco.
I would buy him and have him help me write shows for... on the other hand I will keep the $5... less painful that way.
I would like one with GIF and Meme support as well. I can live without it though, but it would be nice to have!
FUTO swipe isn't there yet, but last I looked it was damn near what I was looking for, but the Swipe was useless. I should check it out again. And I don't like using beta software for something as important as the keyboard. I don't think I have tried Anysoft Keyboard before... I will have to check that one out.
Update Anysoft Keyboard doesn't have swipe typing and it obviously wasn't developed with English in mind. Typing in some of my secure passwords would have had me hopping between multiple screens. Great for some people but not for me.
Nice try and thanks for the suggestions. Futo is is still in Alpha and my old phone is still down so I won't be testing it either. Thanks for the suggestion.
To quote the Features; "Glide typing (only with closed source library ☹️)"
I find that people who come from the old days of linux will often respond "you have to use terminal", or "learn the operating system", or even balk at people saying you can just use the GUI Interface/Desktop Environments. And then when you get help from expirienced users you get allot of terminal commands, which makes people think "I can't use Linux without learning the terminal first". In actuality it is just easier to show a person a command and ask for the results than it is to walk a person through getting the same info otherwise.
"OK, which Desktop Environment are you using?".
"Desktop what?".
"Which version of OS did you download and install?".
"Cinnamon.".
"X or Wayland?".
"What's a Wayland?".
"OK, X. Is your system up to date and which kernel are you running?".
...and so on. It is faster to just help working in the terminal. The Desktop Environments are fairly far along and most that I have worked with you could get by completely in the Desktop and not touch the terminal.
I would suggest Linux Mint, but for now I would stick to the non latest version of 21.3 as they bit off ALLOT in 22 and while it works for allot of people there are driver bugs they inherited from Ubuntu and have not implemented the fix for yet and allot of other pains in the toukus so if you want a version with the minimum of troubleshooting and stable Desktop Environments I would stick to 21.3 (If I had any sense I would be switching back to it from 22 myself).
If you want another option it would be Ubuntu and its Different Desktop 'Spins' to see which you like the most. Some people prefer to start off on Fedora and I am told it has a good DE, or some people recommend PopOS which had its own spin on a DE but they have let development lag on it as they developed their Cosmic Desktop for the Wayland project (the project that is superseding the X.org project for making windows).
Which ever you choose, good luck. I am in the same boat and I am trying to learn what I can before it is too late.
SwiftKey Keyboard. There are OS keyboards and even swipe predictive text keyboards but I wish there was one that had the skinability and functionality that learned from my typing without monitoring my clipboard and reporting it to Microsoft. Yet every other keyboard I have tried has left me disappointed.
Its not much of a vulnerability, like locks, its not if it can be picked, it is how difficult it is to be picked, but the difference here is that the vulnerability is that a nation state actor, or a high capability actor can compromise it, and "it" being the thing that keeps your accounts safe.
So this is like the lock that protects all your accounts can be shimmed if it ever gets out of your control type of an issue, so not to stop using them, but to keep them secured or on your person at all times.
I hope YubiKey offers a fair upgrade program for their next series of keys and maybe a new FIDO Standard.
The drops you see coming off of canned air is the accelerant and condensation, which evaporates instantly. You shouldn't use it on a running PC because it is mildly flammable. As for the vacuum being used I was speaking of the safer way someone could use it at home, not at a shop. At the shops I worked at they all had Data Vacs which are dedicated suck/blow vacuums, along with various various anti-static attachments. They also had compressors. The use was depending on the job and cleaning up after the job. I would sometimes use the Data Vac as a way to keep the dust I would kick up with the compressor down. Then agian I have washed really bad computer motherboards to get oils, tars, or other stuff off the board to get it clean, and then give the boards an isopropyl bath to get them clean. The motherboard and air cooler has to be absolutely disgusting before I get that far into it.
As long as they use "Leader of the Free World" for their President without giving me a vote and the fact that American Policy is also very influential in my Country means that I don't have a vote but I sure as hell have an opinion, and a more educated one than many Americans. I follow American Politics and Policy daily.
Yeah they talk about this kind of stuff in this story and how it isn't going to save us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rR2sYlDqdnw&t=762s
