I’ve been using gimp for years as a Photoshop alternative. Tons of tutorials, and I’ve always been able to do what I needed.

Its great that there are alternatives for those who want them!

How is the calendar basic? I use it and haven’t noticed anything I want that it can’t do.

Protonmail with Blur Abine for most shopping or junk.

3 proton emails, 1 for gaming, 1 for anything with my real name, and 1 with my fake name.

I will attempt this. Thank you!

My kids beg me to disable our network ad blockers so they get perks of mobile app ads.

I know this is an old post, but i wanted to chime in and say i would love to see Sync available for de-googled phones. I will pay like everyone else.

How can I get sync if I’m degoogled(no play store)

I quit a few years ago. Super liberating, but after 2 years of practically nobody jumping on Signal with me, and being left out of friend group chats, I settled on “Facebook lite” for my phone. I dont post, or scroll the feed. Just available for chats.

Im a cyclist who would love to not have to own a car but its just impossible between the suburbs, winter climate, and shitty, dirty public transport in my city. It also takes 10x longer to get anywhere. Plus anyone I know who bikes to work stinks.

Password prompt on boot load. No monitor and keyboard plugged in, and im assuming i cant SSH until LVM password is entered.

What’s a decent game i should try made by Godot?

Going to University means you have a chance at a good paying job. Depending on the job, likely a better chance then someone who didnt go. I make decent money and did not go, however I am incredibly lucky and am not betting on that for any children i have. Trades or University/College is a must.

That being said, how about the Government reduces the cost of post-secondary education, instead of allowing banks to earn off billions of school loans each year. Here, they do reduce it for citizens, however not nearly enough. Additionally, many graduates end up moving to other countries because the pay is lower here.

Thanks for this. I’m not in USA but I had chatgpt summarize my vehicle manufacturers privacy policy. Its wasn’t great, so I sent an email to their privacy inbox. Next, I’ll email my politicians.

Many companies reimburse the cost of the product in exchange for a 5 star review. Don’t trust all amazon reviews!

That comment or this comment?

Fair points. I’ve had my share of politics for the morning, thanks for the discussion. Have a great day!

I strongly disagree. In different words, you’re saying the left is there to defend against the evils of the right.

Left-wing politics tend to emphasize social equality, government intervention, and progressive policies. This includes support for programs such as universal healthcare, social welfare, and environmental regulations. Right-wing politics, on the other hand, prioritize individual freedom, limited government intervention, and traditional values. This often includes advocating for lower taxes, free-market economics, and a conservative stance on social and cultural issues.

Having 100% of either side is evil. Too left, we get Stallin. Too right we get Hitler. Which is more evil, is not relevant. The only thing that matters is that there is a balance between the 2. I’m not saying a 50/50 balance. Just a balance. Everyone will have a different point of view of where that balance lies, and it’s societies job to determine where it lands. I think society gets fucked up, when one or both sides stop seeing the balance and only see ‘us vs them’.

We should be striving for a society where differing perspectives are respected and where a nuanced understanding of complex issues is valued can help avoid the pitfalls of extreme ideologies. It’s essential to promote open dialogue, collaboration, and compromise to find solutions that benefit everyone while avoiding the pitfalls of ‘us vs them’ mentalities that can lead to division and discord.
