It penetrates and ricochets inside instead of exiting, makes for good brain jelly!

Pennsylvania has plenty too. Yes you will have to commute or work from home, but often that’s life here in the states. Yes we are being outpriced and our quality of life is trending down, but there is still housing for those trying to get by with tempered expectations. I’d rather move to Mississippi and own something than rent my whole life, but that’s just me.

You can still find sub 50k homes, but you will have to temper your expectations for the area and condition. Can’t be afraid to learn a few renovation tricks and get your hands dirty!

The idea of infrared pupil trackers is terrifying.

Imagine the tracking potential for insurance companies, law enforcement, etc…

I know this is offtopic, just the first thought that comes to my mind :(

What??? Where did you see this? I would assume the mobile market is still skyrocketing.

You speak as though there are two people groups on equal footing doing atrocities here. As if both sides have done the same level of destruction and murder… That’s the crazy part in my opinion.

It would be as if a 6 year old went and punched a bodybuilder, and the bodybuilder went on to curb stomp and break multiple bones in the child’s body, and then people defended his retaliation.

This is an unpopular take, but that is reality. It really is affordable out here! If you want more income, learn to repair reliable japanese beaters and commute a little. It’s less busy than the city, and it may bore some, but it keeps the bills paid, the kids fed, and the 401k growing.

It’s good to want, and I say that as someone who would dance for joy if an open source phone became viable. If you think starting a new ecosystem and expecting it to be “good, next gen, priced competitively” is feasible via volunteer work anytime soon, I want whatever you’re smoking :)

Who is we? what group of people has the dev funding and time to produce FOSS hardware and software to compete with the average android phone?

It does not, but I don’t sign into any Samsung/Google things and replace every system app with one from F-Droid including the launcher. The experience is fairly similar to my old pixel with grapheneos like this. I am sure it is far cry from as secure, but I am realistic about my threat model and am willing to make trades to be more sustainable and convenient. The only other difference is the system ui skin, which does its job just fine IMO

Typing this on an samsung xcover 6 pro right now. Costs less than 200 used, has a removable battery, up to 1tb micro SD card support, and a headphone jack.

Mullvad disabled port forwarding. Bad for torrents. That was when everyone I know stopped using it.

sys + v can be bound to bring up clipboard history if you are using KDE!

Problem is a lot of them would agree with you on the first one, and say all the billionaires are in fact democrats. It’s impossible to even backwards reason with the right/YouTube/fox mind…

Yeah, how dare he be born in a different country/not have the finances to leave. Poor + bad + ratio, he is just as bad as Trump.

Don’t you see how fucking idiotic you are being? Bad things happen to a country when the people overwhelmingly lack empathy. You are a prime example of one of those people.

What material are you using to print your enclosures? I know abs is pretty bad for car type heat…

I just rebuilt mine and can confirm that most of those resume template builders utilize a lot of word doc “hacks” to format everything, and loading and LibreOffice breaks it.

I just can’t get behind this mentality. Yes things aren’t great in a lot of ways, but there is still great amounts of creativity and innovation all around us. If you stick to algorithms and pop culture to find it, you will be disappointed, but if you put some work in to find gems among the artists at work today, you can still find very inspiring work.
