I suppose the use case would be for journalists, distributing banned books, and so on - pure text-based information. However, video footage is extremely useful in today’s media environment - how many current events do we see first from some tiktok or twitter video, rather than nightly news?
I suppose I’d want to know if my fridge was about to explode… /s
In seriousness, though, you’re right - the problem isn’t with the technology, it’s how the technology is used
Out of curiosity, how did you know? They’re showing up as banned now, but the comment seemed normal to me
OpenDesk seems more aimed at municipalities and larger orgs, whereas cryptpad is better for smaller orgs - the 1000 user “large” edition may be too small for ICC. I’m assuming they aren’t selfhosting the community edition of open desk and wanted the support.
Or maybe open desk just gave them a better deal. Who knows
Possibly for breast cancer? Men can get breast cancer, it’s just not as common
As soon as I got a steamdeck this year, I started kicking myself for every game I had bought on console T_T. I’ve got plenty of steam games, too, but I never had a particularly “good” gaming PC until the deck, just laptops
As soon as this phone kicks the bucket, I’m getting grapheneOS. (Sadly, my current phone is too old to be supported)
I would be OK with losing out on random novelty hotdog-flavored chips.
That being said, you could get around this problem by focusing on staples (rice, flour, vegetables, salt, etc.) since the vast majority of folks don’t really have a preference on this sort of thing, aside from allergies/gluten free.
As this continues, I would highly recommend folks support their local food pantries as they are able. Cash is better, but there’s nothing wrong with a food drive to collect cans from your neighbors. Some pantries also accept fresh produce, if you have some left from your garden this year.
I was about to say, almost sounded like you were speaking from experience XD You’ll be the first suspect if a supervillain with your powers ever pops up
Superspeed- quick commute, get chores done fast, visit the world
It would be neat to have some sort of public survey/contest to name these
I wouldn’t rule out things being better in, say, 100 years, but it would take a lot of luck and effort to get to that point.
Has anyone used OpenDesk? Looks like they have a community edition
You mean we’re supposed to actually read the articles before talking about them?! ;)

Hey man, the playing-pinball-while-a-cat-interferes peertube community is very close-knit (https://video.apz.fi/).
I kid, but it’s true that peertube lacks the dopamine hooks and variety that youtube does. It’s much harder to sink hours into watching a bunch of videos that you’ll only half remember by the next day.
“Staying peaceful” and “fighting back” aren’t mutually exclusive. Anyone who thinks nonviolent tactics don’t work hasn’t read up on their history (East Timor, Philippines, etc.). Every time ICE shows up to pepper spray cops and shoot at priests, local police gets more pissed, and they drive a wedge between local and federal law enforcement, weakening the administration’s ability to project power. Don’t underestimate that opportunity.
That being said, current actions are far more symbolic than transformative. No kings protests don’t do anything on their own, but could easily be leveraged into an enabler of things like boycotts and general strikes which will have a strong impact.
Maybe Marginalia could work for you? I’ve tried using it, but it’s a lot more focused on academic stuff (rather than figuring out song lyrics or which episode some TV quote came from). It’s an “old school” search engine, though, so a bit less convenient than google, duckduckgo, etc. if you weren’t around in 90s/early 00s for that.
It’s good for rural areas and areas without many internet options. Even my internet isn’t really that bad, and it would still take a few hours to download a game that large. It would be convenient to just take an SD card from one device and put it into another.
I’m glad that they’re thinking about these edge case scenarios. Valve is good about this- for example, I’ve never needed any of steam’s accessibility options, but I’m glad they are there.
