people having a life and being able to afford to change their lifestyle away from fossil fuels is more important at the moment.

we really need more education surrounding the issues and better alternatives, once everyone realises how much damage cars cause and once they realise/once they have a viable alternative (i.e. trains) then people will start to switch away. in the mean time people still need their cars to get to work, because that is how the US is designed, and expensive fuel will only result in them having less spare change, rather than them actually using their car less.

sure, if everyone had enough money that they could afford to change up the way they do things or if everyone had a job that they can do from home or if everyone lived within walking distance from their job, then maybe you would have a valid argument. people are much less likely to go on a road trip, for example, if its gonna cost them 3x more than they expect it to cost, but people need to go to work to survive.

fix the homelessness problem or trans rights issues or the home heating problem or improve the looks of the cities or fix the wealth gap or fix NHS or lessen sexism or improve public schools or lower emissions or improve nuclear power or reduce coal or subsidise renewables or improve privacy or fix all the issues created by the UK government over the last 30 years or help fix problems caused by colonisation in ireland or do literally anything useful for once? nah, too expensive.

a £230,000,000 mass surveillance program akin to that of russia or the ccp? of course we can!

Uncommitted voters are not apathetic. The Democratic party is ( www.theguardian.com )

What happens in November is up to Biden – it will not be the fault of the protest voter if Trump is elected. The questions remain: does the Democratic party fear Trump as much as we do? And does it value its voters enough to shift away from an approach to the onslaught in Gaza that a majority of Democratic voters are against?

imkali ,

Biden somewhat dances around the idea of helping Palestinians, while Trump avoids referring to them as people. Both are terrible by any metric, but one is miles ahead.

From official F-Droid & IzzyOnDroid repos (except for Molly):

  1. Aegis
    Secure + encrypted 2FA

  2. Calculator++
    Powerful scientific calculator

  3. Clipious or FreeTube Android
    Clipious: Privacy focused invidious client that syncs with your account and lets you pick backup instances in case yours goes down
    FreeTube: Ad-blocking cross-platform privacy-focused YouTube client that imo looks better than NewPipe + Clipious

  4. FluffyChat (if you use Matrix)
    Secure, private (although not as good as Signal), client for Matrix (the messaging service) that imo looks better than Element and lets you seperate rooms + DMs, which some clients don't let you do iirc as well as a couple other features like pinned messages and video calls.

  5. HeliBoard
    Best open source keyboard I've used so far

  6. KeePassDX
    KeePass compatible password manager

  7. Moshidon and/or Mastify
    Mastodon clients. Mastify looks really good but is till in Alpha releases so is missing quite a bit of features. Moshidon is extremely feature rich.

  8. Molly
    Security-focused fork of Signal

  9. Podverse
    My personal favourite podcast app, run by 1 person afaik with a lot of free features, or a very cheap paid plan that is basically just a donation because it only adds like 2 features that I can remember. Has a very generous trial too and the dev has said if you can't afford it they're willing to adjust pricing for you.

  10. QUIK SMS
    Best actively maintained, open source SMS client.

  11. Twine
    Beautiful cross-platform RSS feed app.

I've been meaning to listen to Gojira for a while- what album/song/whatever do you recommend I start with?

imkali ,

same- went straight from Lorna Shore into Lil Darkie earlier lmao

imkali ,

Wow, nice. I love it when people are clearly so interested in what they're writing about.

Sounds like I'll start with Planned Obsolescence then, and work my way through their stuff. Thanks for such solid recommendations. :)

imkali ,

lol sounds like you do, good on you. I've been listening to them for a bit and I really like them. I'll be checking them out some more later, thanks again for the great comments!

imkali OP ,

Thanks, it's more for the sake of having it playing comfortably on as many devices as possible without the user having to do anything, even in weird cases, so I guess I'll convert with ffmpeg.

Isn't this an anti-ddos page? Happens all the time at my school because we're 3000 people using one connection.

This feels like what Linus Tech Tips said, and we saw how that went....

I dont think that makes them bad, but they do need to educate themselves.

Google pulls Binance, other global crypto apps from India store

FIU, an Indian government agency that scrutinizes financial transactions, late last month issued show cause notices to nine crypto firms and alleged that they weren’t compliant with India’s anti-money laundering rules. Apple pulled the apps earlier this week and various telecom networks and internet service providers began blocking the URLs of the crypto exchange websites Thursday evening.
