reminds me of the old greentext that was like "please drink a mtn dew verification can to continue"

i really hope something happens soon to prevent this future.

  1. Buying a property outside a small town defeats the purpose of being in a walkable city, no?
  2. Why are you assuming I want to live in a "stucco house", or a single family home, at all?
  3. Why are you assuming I order doorfash, and dont have a garden (I do have a garden, and I have never ordered from doorfash.)

you dont have to assume the worst all the time fella. this is lemmy, not twitter.

User Numbers = Venture Capitalists. They don't need to see immediate profit to invest. They just need to see a user base and a feasible plan to make profit. See Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, InstaCart and most infamously MoviePass.

Do you know anything about starting a local chapter? The closest one to me is 2 hours away :(

[–] Turret3857 2 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Thanks, I'll look and see if theres a local chapter in my area. Ive been meaning to get more involved in local politics, its just hard to find a comfortable group of people to get in with in my experience. Would love to find out I can actually join people in something meaningful :)

that solves the first part if I walk for like 4 days, but how do I live there short of being homeless?

I mean I dont disagree with you. I try to minimize those risks as much as I can in my life. I run CalyxOS, only run FOSS apps, keep airplane mode on unless I'm out & expecting a call, keep location off unless I need a GPS. I get your point though, I'm in the minority on that.

If there was a Pi Zero on par with the Pi 4 I'd definitely be making my own "phone" though. i hate knowing part of my phone is a google black box.

not sure about stock android but if I set notifications to silent on CalyxOS it Doesnt make a sound when I Screenshot

It's closer to Win8's Metro and Win10s FluentUI more than Vista's Aero but your point still stands. These are decade old design philosophies.

it's an improvement but I'm still not happy about these huge ass buttons in the notification shade that could easily be half the size. Theres so much wasted space. I used to be able to access 6 quick tiles in the minimized shade. now its 4. Used to have 9-12 tiles on a full shade. now we have 8.

If you're going to continue to make 6"+ phones, USE THE SCREEN SPACE FOR FUCKS SAKE
