There’s more, he criticized protests against ICE in LA turning into riots, and had some nice things to say about Kirk after he was killed.
That said I think it’s really unproductive for people to turn on him after he was a big spark in a movement and is still outspoken. He has irritated me a few times lately but he’s still one of the most influential leaders.
Ah shit, I’m in the Chicagoland area. I wonder if this affects me. That’s good to know.
Surprised no mention here yet of a Pixel 3a? Both Ubuntu Touch and PostmarketOS seem to run best on it, so I’ve had it on my eBay search notifications for a while hoping to be able to toy with one. I really don’t expect it to be daily driver material though.
If you have a Mac, have you ever tried installing an app and have it refuse because it’s not signed by Apple, and then you had to go into settings and click “allow anyway?”
This is that, except without the allow anyway feature, like iOS. It doesn’t matter if it comes from the play store or elsewhere, as this story originally had us believe.
surely there will have to be “no smart glasses” rules
They have this rule for ebikes at the lake I love to walk and the kids are zooming by anyway. I think we’ll struggle to enforce it and that really sucks. I hope this fails. It’s hard not to be pessimistic about it, as much as I can see some legitimate use cases. I just don’t trust big tech with it, least of all Meta.
Heh…these days I kinda long for devices for for specific purposes again 😅 and I’m a software engineer.
Buy refurb then, it’s what I did and it’s super fast. Returns are diminishing these days and your money will go further.
Someone else had mentioned Magic Earth but I was under the impression that it was another big tech thing (I guess I was thinking of Google Earth) but you saying it again made me check it out.
Seems like not OSS but their claim of privacy focus actually makes me interested so I’ll try it out! I’m even okay with the small fee, I know servers cost money to run. Glad to see they’re working on a non-Google or Apple payment.
haha I’m with you here, though tbh this is something I would have cared about some years ago but these days with tech fatigue I don’t even mind the Stephen Hawking guidance (I usually have it off anyways).
Thanks for sharing this! I just started using OsmAnd for biking and missed this nice detail.
Google Maps would take me through some awful stroads pretty regularly, so I’ll be glad for a safer route even if it takes longer.
Oh I’m aware of the “Osm” meaning.
I still think it’s a bad name 😅 how does someone unfamiliar with OSM pronounce it? Why is there a tilde?!
Hey thanks for sharing this! I’ll try Bimba. I’m planning on switching to GrapheneOS soon so the less stuff reliant on G services the better, as much as I like the Transit app.
Edit seems like it’s a bit limited on its coverage, with little to speak of in the US :(
Was hoping to get Chicagoland metro area transit.
I’m not sure this is possible without crowd sourced data
The transit app is for public transit. Trains buses etc. I probably should have specified sorry!
But yeah there really isn’t a way around reviews I think I’m going to have to come to peace with that.
By your logic the *arr suite isn’t self hosted either since they rely on metadata cache servers.
In fact Jellyfin relies on external services for their metadata too!
Bit weird to pin it on an age generation
Obviously photoshopped shit like this is a bad look on real issues man come on.
There’s plenty of actual real trash urbanism you can share.
Hate to say it but it honestly doesn’t sound crazy hard to just block any instance that pops up. Yes it’s whack a mole but if it’s an automated script, it can just crawl through a backdoor instance and ban any domain it sees.
Thanks for this, looks like it took a long time to put together!
Some corrections with Windscribe since I use it: on Android you can get the APK directly (“sideload” - I use Obtanium) or through F-Droid. Also I think that pricing is for the full service. I pay like $3 a month with 30GB data and a choice of (I think) 3 or 4 countries IIRC. This has been more than enough for me and probably most people.
