I love Graphene, because I seriously care about privacy. Everything works well but I also wasn’t a fan of having to find Google hardware. Second hand worked and next year I will consider the Motorola that will run Graphene.

Since you insist on Meta and Google Apps, you seem less concerned with hard privacy, so a Fairphone with e/OS could be a great choice. e/OS is nice too, I tried it for a while but found some laps in it’s privacy settings and I did not want to leak any location info to google.

If you don’t like it, you can revert to stock android, no problem.

Good idea actually

Stop buying anything on Amazon

Thanks, this is good to know. I’m in the process of upgrading my media setup and am playing around with Jellyfin to replace Plex. I’ve been reluctant to commit since Plex is easy and I have a lifetime pass, but this data collection is a great reason to finally be done with Plex

*based on odds on fucking polymarket. This is not news

This 7yr old is smart enough to know exactly what the media will run with and how to manipulate discourse online

Not quite, this particular paragraph was identical in the cold war era but the other paragraphs, mainly defining when it is in effect and when not, were changed. This made the law applicable since January 1st of this year. So previously this rule was only applicable during war or “conflicting times” and now it always is.

Eating out is expensive, I would recommend at least Fr.150 per person per day for food. That should cover 2-3 meals and a coffee, sweet treat, etc.

In Europe it’s normal that supermarket prices are significantly cheaper than restaurants. The people preparing our food deserve a living wage.

Sure there will be some fancy ski hut waiting for someone rich or drunk enough to shell out 100k for booze, but just because it exists doesn’t mean it’s the norm.

100% and it’s fully normalised now, I’ve even switched to UK English spelling myself and on all my devices.

My parents’ iMacs are running Linux and everyone is drinking local Kola. My focus is now on encouraging friends and family to join in and helping where I can. (mostly the tech stuff) I also like to throw US and Israeli products to the back of the shelves in supermarkets. Even made some ‘Buy European’ stickers to put over barcodes.

They MUST have free child care. And MUST send their kids to public schools. Only then will the systems be improved for everyone

And I’ve never seen fortune’s work so well summarized. Conservative Debtslop should be on their cover, right next to their usual lead story of iPhone 20 Lets You Talk to Ghosts, Insider Confirms

Are you working for fortune’s marketing department?

The US have an extraordinary ability to ruin anything. Things are either capitalised or policed

Voting is a good reason to keep the citizenship.

In regards of taxes, if your place of residence collects more than the US would, nothing is actually owed. In the EU most (if not all) countries have much higher tax rates than the US, so the only “crime” would be the failure to file. Not sure if this is why the folks I know are getting away with this.

But generally yes, my friends are not planing to go back and much prefer paying higher taxes in return for accessible healthcare and public transport.

In my circle of friends none of the US Americans living abroad file their tax returns and haven’t done so for many years… especially if you’re not planing to move back to the US, I really don’t see the need to continue compliance with the IRS or renounce a citizenship. Keep that passport and keep voting. Throw dog shit over the embassy fence.

lol that bread for $12.50

Very important that all coffee served is decaf

We have to protect them from the woke internet

Olauncher anyone? I like clean list
