Well I use Firefox on vollaOS. It’s not fully degoogled in terms of apps for sure but I hope change will come.

I’m using the volla phone x23 which runs vollaOS, an android fork without all those pesky Google background processes. It uses MicroG to simulate them though, since most Android apps expect them now.
Ha! That’s one of the reasons I switched to a degoogled android phone. The extra battery life is quite noticeable.
Wether it’s on the internet or at a bar counter, I like to engage in debate to better myself. If your goal is to turn every fanatic that crosses your path, you’re gonna be depressed real soon.
I really like to watch competitive FPS like CS and Valorant but I’d hate to play them since my jam is turn-based games. Heck I’d even watch competitions of games like Lol or Starcraft but the Jargon is too much for me!

There’s no need for that, unless parts of the US want independence, like some Scots regarding the UK. But break it all up because it’s too messy, not healthy? That’s what critics of the EU or the UN also say. Myself I’ve always been an advocate of unity and collaboration since it’s the only way we’re gonna be able to solve climate change and every other major world crisis.
It’s not that us outsiders like to watch your elections closely. But we need to since they’re gonna have a big impact on the world we live in, whether we like to admit it or not.
There is a great video about the Great Filter by Kurzgesagt/In a Nut Shell. If I remember correctly, in it they say we can guess at which stage the filter is by how evolved extraterrestrial life forms are. So it’s actually great if we find a lot of bacteria or other primitive life forms, that would mean we probably already have overcome the Geat Filter on Earth. On the other hand, if we find many alien ruins of several civilizations at or above our technological level… Well, our greatest challenge might be coming.
Syncthing is great to periodically sync files between Linux and Android. And you could use it as file transfer service for occasional needs if you just share an empty directory.
Yeah !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone is one of my favorite communities for wholesome memes.
Yes but if Valve goes bankrupt (unlikely today but the winds may change), imagine the amount of backlash caused by people not being able to download “their” games since the servers would have been sold.
Technically you don’t own your Steam games too. As far as game platforms go, it’s just GOG and Itch.io where you actually own the copy, right?
Thank you for the warning!
A few years ago I would have agreed with this statement. But lately, I’ve seen a change described in several press articles and news pieces. The younger generations in the US demand true social justice and aren’t afraid to say they’re socialists, against capitalism or consumerism. It’s a burgeoning revolution of course, since the establishment is still in control of traditional political parties. But this crack in the old broken system could bring about positive change in the long run. At least I hope so.
Where I’m from we’ve got the “ccc” rule. Coffee, cig, caca (poop). The holy trinity.
Yes of course, we always used fractions so there was no ambiguity. Last time I saw the division symbol must have been in primary school!
Interesting, I didn’t know about strong implicit multiplication. So I would have said the result is 9. All along my studies in France, up to my physics courses at University, all my teachers used weak implicit multiplication. Could be it’s the norm in France, or they only use it in math studies at University.
Yeah I meant switching back and forth between ST and DST. We almost got rid of it in the EU! Then COVID came so we had more pressing matters I guess.
My last phone with standard Google Android had a 5000 mAh battery while the new degoogled has one with a bit more than 6000 mAh I think. Even then I feel the overall increase in battery life cannot be explained with hardware only. Without watching videos or playing games, I only have to charge my new phone every 3-4 days. And I’ve background apps like syncthing running all the time. I’ve just checked there’s actually a few other open source forks of android other than LineageOS. If you’re disappointed with it.
