I honestly can’t understand why most of the popular social media providers are popular. But, if that’s what it takes, could we not?

About 50/50 subscribed/all. My subscriptions are esoteric enough to disappear unless you select them. All is for the local equivalent of doom scrolling.

There is always something you can do. Come down off the ketamine and pay attention to the controls, Major.

I’m primarily interested in the opinions of people who are not at least one of male/hetero/cis; it’s too easy for the privikeged group to delude themselves about how good they are behaving.

Be patient, and let the cat make the decisions. Food helps, but it’s not enough, if you feed the cat but are not present, you are just feeding the cat (and who knows what else). We have had a few main pets that were strays. They make great pets IMO, they really appreciate the life you are giving thaem

Ableton Live. Max looks interesting, and one of these days I am going to try it out.

I pursued Zen seriously for a while, I still practice at times, should do it more.

I play keyboards, have a decent electronic piand which doubles as a MIDI controller. I like prog, the nerdier end of techno/electronica/hip-hop, and classical. LCD Soundsystem, Stereolab, King Crimson.

I did, thanks!

Music (but not a very good musician), other cultures and international travel, history.

Look, the fascists are having a barroom brawl. Pass the popcorn, would you?

You say that like it’s a bad thing…

I really liked /e/Lineage on the phone, but no VoLTE means it’s not a phone in my case.

Disappointed. The killer is the lack of a working driver for the onboard WiFi. They say this is a priority, but no checkin on the github page for months. It works tethered to a phone, or with a USB network adapter, but that’s not good for my use case. Touch integration in Linux is not really there, and the snap on keyboard is kind of thin and floppy. That said, I have a Quartz board that is excellent. The pine guys have excellent technology, but maybe their manufacturing vendors are better at circuit boards than finished products.

Q-Tips. Paper shafts, plenty of fuzz on the ends.

I tried Lineage (actually /e/OS) on a Samsung phone, and it was great, except voice calling did not work. It turns out that the Samsung VoLTE hardware has never been figured out by open source devs. Graphene looks interesting, I may trade in my phone to try it.

Yes, of course. I’m not aware of any fully open source tablet that actually works - I got a PineTab2, but it’s more like a mini laptop, and the onboard WiFi does not work, which is too bad.
