I also wondered who builds it from source.

Apparently it is this development team, which, I must say, has several interesting projects active:

I just checked and I installed Signal from F-Droid.

It says Repository: Guardian Project on the app page.

I am talking about Europe now:

we need trains. We need to unify the rail systems (rail width and electrical tensions) and the ticket systems. Europe could be easily served using a network of night train routes.

I think there should be way more political discourse about rail in the EU, but, for example in Italy, airports have been used as electoral campaigning devices.

Please notice I said real money. Of course they make some money from the tickets, but the highest number I could find is 60% of revenue, and you have to calculate that it is a hyper-regulated seasonal industry.

I don’t think airlines make any real money from the flights.

I don’t even know if the space in Star Wars is supposed to be empty space like ours. I seem to recall they have a rule not to show anyone ejecting or drifting in space for that same reason.

No.

They are all terrible movies, with droid-like performances, plot holes the size of a Sarlacc pit and effects and fight choreographies as pointless as the little pistons on the exterior of a surrogate hand.

Mark Hamill should be ashamed of agreeing to participate in them, even more to compensate the fact that apparently Ford cannot help himself from doing it here and in the Indy movies.

I never heard someone who is not Russian in the voice chat in CS2. Seeing that the skins are mostly exchanged there as well, I guessed the game was a Russian colony by now.

Here where I am the only such places left are meant for Lan parties and populated by veeery competitive people.

I started playing multiplayer (directly to Warzone) for the first time in my life during the pandemic. I play only once a week if the 3 of us are online. I can organize a farewell party and that’s it.

As a game, CoD/Warzone is terrible, the anti-cheat is iffy as well. I am a patient gamer who loves indie games, stuff like most Devolver games.

I won’t miss it. It’s more of a “tell your friends you grew up” problem.

Are you Russian?

I have a couple of “pandemic friends” I play with once a week. The problem is that just because of that I have one shitty game (because of the propaganda and the actual quality of the game) from a shitty company taking up 200 GB of space on my SSD and they keep me on the only Slack I use outside of work.

Yeah, I think it’s time. I am an indie game patient Steam player otherwise anyway.

Going to do the same with Warzone in 3…2…

Thank you for the last bit of inspiration I needed.

Access to locally installed fonts. Separate memory management. Offline work. And, most importantly, ALL the keyboard shortcuts.

No browser memory management, access to local fonts, and I guess a few others.

I would say that this is good for most Hollywood movies and that I see Spielberg as the initiator. Except for Duel, all of his movies are craftsmanship, not art. And yes, that includes Schindler’s List, maybe as the most egregious example.

Counting and therefore distributing spoils fairly. I would become a well-loved chief and would probably get laid more than I currently do, although the hairy partners may not be of my liking.

Ate fried veal brain all the time: it’s sooo good! Since the CJD outbreaks that’s something we learned not to do.

I still have my reddit account, although with all posts and comments first turned into Fuck spez and the deleted. I tried Lemmy first 2 years ago, but the Italian instance is just a mirror bot farm. I gave lw a chance now and I am hooked.

Bought and installed Elite yesterday for the first time. This is completely true for me today.

I take the (you may call it Stoic) decision not to think about what I cannot affect. 23andMe is not a good company, it is tied to Google etc. and they are sloppy with security. I am not even trying to justify myself not taking my data away from there earlier, that is my fault, and I have been stupid and lazy.

That said, their Privacy Statement is quite clear about what should happen and none of the exception listed there apply, also because genetic data is anyway Art. 9 data.

I will act at the best of my possibilities and not concern myself more than needed with how bad of an actor anyone may be in the US (it is a bit overwhelming as an exercise, especially nowadays).
