CalyxOS is fantastic. You can get a like-new Pixel on swappa.com for cheap, and have a virtually Google-free, Apple-free phone that supports most/all the apps you would want via MicroG. Can't recommend it enough. GrapheneOS is sim

I don't understand this argument at all. Look at the Clipper Chip debacle in the 90s. It was technically feasible and the government very much wanted to do it. And the reason they didn't is push back from the public, saying this i

> businesses will adjust or die. This is the key point for me. Too many people seem to think that only workers should adapt for companies, and that the labor market exists to compete for the jobs that are bestowed on them. This is eviden

And by Black Mirror game I assume you mean creating a dystopian hellscape and not some interactive TV thing.

What is the value proposition for moving from vanilla vim to neovim? I see all the features on the neovim repo, but almost all of them seem aimed at developers rather than users. I've considered switching, but I'd have to move to

Very very well said. This needs to be shouted from the rooftops. Along with a line from a reply below: 'There’s no “labour” shortage. There’s a “wage” shortage.'

Changing the subject with a "whataboutism" about Apple adds nothing to the discussion and is still a sort defense of Facebook, despite you saying you weren't going to defend them.

You can also view it using Sysinternals DbgView or a debugger. This comes in really handy when you want some output from something that doesn't have stdout available, like a DLL.

I am always so surprised when I read articles like this by people in the "ad tech" space by the amount of sheer entitlement to people's attention and data. Apple making this move is treated as if they were denying access to a

While that is a solution, I don't think it is the solution. Another non-solution would be removing all Internet access. Ransomware problem solved, a whole bunch of other problems created.
