Do they disclose what percentage of their revenue is donated? If it's just a token amount, then I'd rather not support a marketing gimmick and would prefer to just donate directly to an organization focused on trees. If it's

Their website is confusing. So it's a non-profit for planting trees.. that's also a search engine? How are those two things at all related or have any benefit to being combined into one company?

I'm happy to see someone who appears to be motivated and with significant Android dev experience taking over Mull. It's by far the best mobile browser if you care about privacy and limiting Google's control.

For some classes of problems that are easily vectorized, using an array-focused language can certainly make thinking about them and their solutions more efficient, since you can abstract over the data structure and iteration details. As a q

I suppose the status quo is an inevitable consequence of technology expanding the practical spheres of influence of world powers. It sure would be nice though to have a world without globalization, still full of cultural diversity.

War and conflict and the resulting devastation is part of human nature, as it has been for all of our species' history. Why would you expect that to have changed in the last 20 years?

How about going in the other direction? Completely stay out of their business and let whatever emerges from the chaos develop on its own? Central planning of societies doesn't have a good track record, especially when there are compet

Oops thanks for pointing that out. I am indeed using librewolf.

I use Librefox [1] on desktop and Mull [2] on Android. They're both basically patch sets applied to Firefox that remove tracking, proprietary blobs, and come with better defaults for privacy. [1] https://github.com/int

When I lived in Germany in 2009 paying for gym memberships or rent was all done with instant transfers.

simplex.chat fits my needs and doesn't require a phone number or even email address.

Not being able to back up app data to another device that I own because its encrypted with a hardware-tied key that I can't access is a terrible design that plagues modern mobile devices. It's my device; I should be able to acces

When I was in school, you'd just go the main office and ask the secretary. They had a phone that students could use (for free) when they missed the bus or had to reach their parents for something important.

Is it comfortable to use for 2+ hours? My XReal Air glasses are okay for mirroring a single 1080p display, but becomes fatiguing on the eyes.

If it's just transferring the provisioning token over to the other phone (which is what it does sounds like), I wonder why the tool is needed and one couldn't just reuse the QR code used to install the eSIM initially.

> Are you really going to try to tell me that a 2-year-old who was brought to the US by their parents and then stayed here into adulthood was "in violation of the law"? Yes? Why would you argue otherwise?

I believe that's the functionality added by the "Beam" adapter (which I haven't tried). The glasses on their own just display a static "dumb" display that doesn't respond to one's movement.

XReal Air are pretty good for that purpose. I can just plug them into my laptop or any phone that supports DisplayPort over USB-C and mirror my full screen. The clarity is good enough for dev work, but my eyes feel a little strained after
