This is what I landed on, really happy with it. Sync super fast, keeps adding features, clean UI, great WYSIWYG rich text, and dead simple imports. Plus they regularly do discounts, so even the low cost gets lower. Way better than the headache of SN or whatever else is out there

Probably "memorial"

Thank you, I missed that

Most of this is right, but needs some things corrected.

LOS is kept up by individual maintainers of the devices, and so it can cover more of them. But that also means you expand your attack surface to lineage, maintainer, microg, etc. And that's just on supported devices. Unofficial devices are even more wild-west, having much delayed releases, OS updates, security updates, everything.

Not only that, but Lineage requires that you unlock your bootloader and often have your phone rooted to be able to do everything. This introduces special points of insecurity and possible issues in the future.

GOS is from a single source, for a single line of phones, and uses a designed method to load cryptographically signed ROMs onto the device, and then validate updates using the same method. The Play Services are sandboxed and disabled by default, so you can just never use them if you want. Overall, this makes for a more cohesive device. One that is more private and more secure. Especially so, when you can buy a new Pixel device and have guaranteed updates for as long as Google will do so for the same device.

iPhones tend to send close to the same types of info back home. When started, idle, inserting a SIM, on the settings screen, even when not logged in. Like, its very similar even when you look at comprehensive lists which a lot of people either don't know or ignore. I'm not saying that there aren't specific benefits or reasons to feel more comfortable with Apple. But saying its because they intrinsically are more private, I feel like that's a bridge too far

Light usage of soy sauce inside. You won't taste it, but it evenly salts the thing and adds umami flavor that really adds something amazing. Once you do it you'll wonder why it took you this long

Lol nah, you weren't clear about not dismissing one view at all. I didn't get my feelings hurt, I used a literary structure of reversing the message to counter what you said, and I'd say it was pretty effective.

And please don't do that smarmy "u mad bro" schtick, because your word choices betray you. This wasn't a balanced and nuanced take. "Sentimentality ... far beyond your capacity to understand ... Some people are just simple ... " vs "bigger than you ... advancing humanity, easing suffering, and understanding the universe ... the drive to discover, to create and to shape the future of the planet". Your own preferences speak volumes. Now compare mine. What you read into my message is far more indicative than what the actual info is.

Maybe you were trying to say something different but your message was lost and muddied.

People tend to value what makes them feel important more than the things that they do not want to or cannot participate in emotionally. It's easy to prioritize career and personal achievements over providing support and fulfilling the promises you made to others in making a community, something far bigger than you. Over advancing humanity, easing suffering, and understanding each the universe within each other. When those things are far beyond your capacity to understand and capability to do, they hold less interest to you than the simpler things you were conditioned to strive after in capitalist propaganda or toxic machismo. Accolades, success, and recognition are incredibly important and compelling. But so is the drive to heal, to create and to shape the future of the planet through love. Some people are just simple, though, and like things to remain simple.

Those who can, do it. Those who can't, manage it. Those who don't even comprehend, criticize it. By regurgitating platitudes.

oh goodness, Maynard should have been the composer for the Dune movies

Just don't use a window envelope

I've had a Timbuk2 laptop bag for a long time, over a decade and no issues. Loved it so much I bought a backpack from them when my Swiss Gear straps broke. I've had it for probably 5 years, adore this thing and I can't see needing to repair it anytime soon. Recently took it abroad stuffed with laptop and camera gear and it was great. Regular sales online, highly recommend

Anything by Andy Weir, he's basically juvenile fiction with really good ideas and research
