pink washing is used to justify it like the “omg headscarf” panel.

i didn’t know that jmp.chat was a thing!

THANK YOU!!!

EXACTLY! i’ve been following her on tiktok. she and madeline pendelton have been the most helpful in my self education.

i suspect that the trick is to somehow modernize it beyond audio books so that there tiny little doses of theory sprinkled throughout the day like tiktok has quick and tiny doses.

and don’t forget the pink washing!

i appreciate your attempt to help, but i really meant the word quagmired.

porting the google number requires a phone plan w carrier; but i only use prepaid accounts between multiple carriers that change roughly every 6 to 12 months or so, depending on the price and whether or not they’ll support the unlock phones that i buy online. also: my current carrier will not accept a google voice number per their technical support people.

and those companies rely on some sort of multi factor authentication and my experiences with forwarding teaches me that the forwarding doesn’t always go through in a timely enough manner.

that seems to spell doom for linux as it’s share is larger according to this report.

it’s tougher than i thought it would be.

watching the overwhelming majority decry leftistism while simultaneously reinforcing propaganda to each other and opting for ineffective no-kings marches that were created by the same oligarchy that caused the problems that we’re dealing with right now makes be believe that climate change will be the only thing to force people to realize that the tankies were right… again.

i’m quagmired in more ways than just the OS with things like: i need to figure out how to move paid subscriptions based on my gmail address to organizations/companies that refuse to let me change the email address on my account or that everyone that i’ve ever known for the last 20 years knows me by google voice phone number.

that makes sense with my data, however i bought the pixel and either helped them make a profit with a new one or helped increase the resale value with a used one.

there needs to be more leftist lemmy instances; i could have sworn i saw this the other day. lol

yeah, inject directly into my brain somehow. lol.

Don’t use eos if mobile security matters at all to you. It’s also not nearly as private as GrapheneOS and frequently phones home to Google.

my primary reasoning for an android alternative is to get out of google’s walled garden and security is 2nd.

the only aspect of mobile security that matters to me is that which protects me from national gov’ts & police and working as a software engineer & systems administrator for the last 20+ years has taught me that i’m hopelessly outclassed. so i chose to focus my efforts in the arenas where i can have any sort of impact and not financially supporting google is the only impact i can have. buying a pixel (either new or used) goes against this because i either give google the money for a new one or i help google with future sales by boosted pixel resale values with a used one.

i’ll be in line to buy a graphene device as soon as it’s available for something other than a pixel.

What do you mean by give Google more?

i’ve been stuck in google’s walled garden since the early 2000’s because i foolishly bought into their old “don’t be evil” motto; so they have all my text messages, phone calls, contacts, emails, location data, pictures, etc. and i don’t doubt that they’ve made a lot of profit from knowing all the details of my life and i don’t want to give them any more.

i’ve also never had good luck buying personal electronics second hand and buying one second hand helps their resale value.

i want to use graphene, but i don’t want to use a pixel (nor any new google offering) more.

@Cowbee@lemmy.ml posted a similar list and i’ve started there, but thanks for this one too nonetheless

I was like “Rogan?”

chopperan

story of my life lol.

that’s why i put myself into that volunteering situation again despite the bitter taste of the first one and also why i been trying to finish a book series by s.m. sterling for the last 25 years; every time i try, i run into hand written notes from me in the past telling me that i need to read the previous book to remember what’s going on.

what would you have dunked with?

i’m a liberal because most of the leftist theories requires a shit ton of reading and self education, which is going to take me decades to complete at my pace

that’s the most common reason i’ve heard, but experience from previous protests teaches me that americans are STRONGLY biased against leftist movement so an overwhelming majority will not get anything meaningful out of it and only the ones who are already receptive might continue down this path.
