Data-based messaging apps are generally now. Like iMessage and WhatsApp.

Yeah, same. For me, it’s better to simply not understand some words than have the distraction of subtitles on the whole time. Or when needed, just jump back a few seconds to hear it again.

Progressive Party is pretty good, has a nice ring to it. How about something even more to the point: Tax the Rich party. The entire platform can be built around taxing the billionaires out of existence and rebalancing the power back to the people.

Tax the Rich as a party name makes it very clear what it’s about, and it gets people saying the thing we need to be doing - so it helps to spread the idea more.

Bezos’s exercise of greater control over the Post‘s journalism in recent months has raised eyebrows.

Raised eyebrows? Is mild-washing a word? It should be.

Not sure which part you’re referring to, but in regards to stealing an election, I thought this recent video from Howtown to be really interesting! The US has a surprisingly robust election system and I wish more folks understood how it all works.

I use downpour.com for drm-free audiobooks. They let you straight up download the mb4 files haha it’s awesome.

It’s such a win-win b/c I get to buy audiobooks drm-free and I get to avoid supporting audible which has terrible business practices such as locking authors in exclusive deals.

Also thanks for the ebooks.com recommendation! I was reading this thread specifically to see if anyone knew of a good place online to buy drm-free ebooks :)

This is cool! Also I can’t help but see this as a meme format: “Me, at 7am vs 10pm” lol

Fyi - “Below the fold” is a phrase borrowed from print media, which for digital content simply means anything below the current screen viewport that requires scrolling to access.

I also noticed the reduction in operating temperature, which can help improve energy generation efficiency. Hotter panels produce less energy (generally speaking).
