No, I search for niche stuff very often.

I always feel a sense of dissonance (I think that's the right word?) when I see posts like this. Everyone seems to be talking about this, but I haven't noticed a difference. Honestly, when I look up something, what I'm looking for is usually in the first few results. Not really sure how to feel about my experience being so different from others.

You might check out the Lawnchair launcher, that aims to replicate the Pixel launcher, but FOSS and more cuatomizable. You can set the search app up with any browser on that.

Elon musk: is inventing brain chips

People: oh okay.

Elon musk: wants people to use them

People:

Can I be a friend of yours lol

I hope it goes on sale for <$10 at some point, it looks really fun

How do I blacklist the word Trump so that I don't see posts like this in my feed?

It really depends on the culture of the area, but yeah overall it'd probably be less stigmatized on average. It would certainly be stigmatized though—some people forget that many people consider sexual acts in general (that others can see, like posting pictures on the Internet, porn work, etc.) wrong in the first place. A lot of people online don't interact with these people a lot—not necessarily because they 'don't touch grass' but because these are often the people who chose not to be active in social media. When you consider that they see a woman posting a steamy picture of herself online as wrong, it makes sense why.

Many people have grown up with a very conservative (sexuality wise, at least) mindset, and that's just the way they were taught to see things.

I think that because of that, it's not unlikely that a large portion of people would still see person doing these things, even if not for monetary gain, as "sluts" or something similar.

The simple answer is, generally no. Most modern Christians are far more moderate and flimsy in their beliefs than one might think. There's always going to be extremists in any situation, but someone that identifies as a "Christian" in the modern world is generally shaped by the modern world. You'll be hard pressed to find someone deny basic science in today's world.

I could be wrong, but I believe he meant that other countries themselves should pass similar laws; not that the EU should make laws mandating what Apple does in other countries

Important rights of businesses in the US constitution include

• The commerce clause.
• The right to free speech.
• The right to free association.

Important note regarding a business's right to regulate free speech: The rules of the Constitution are meant to regulate Congress, not businesses or citizens. Therefore, the right to free speech means Congress cannot restrict someone from speaking his or her mind, but a business may be able to.

For example, a radio show has the right to not allow a certain person to speak on its program or to say certain things. Ultimately, such issues are decided by the Supreme Court, and there may be some exceptions, depending on the circumstances.

Our library in the last place we lived (Midwest of the US) let you take pans from their large collection of cake pans. It was actually really useful.

The weird part is, when you actually talk to a Conservative irl, they don't care about EVs. Sure they might not like them—they might even think they're a Political scheme or whatever. But they at least understand that there are more important things happening. Politicians failure to represent their user base's viewpoint in the US is always astounding.

If I'm trying to actually be realistic and understand it rather than just insult people—I think this Is due to a lot of different things, but a large one is that conservatives see liberals as "the ones running the world". They feel oppressed, and silenced, and therefore lash out. This builds overtime. Liberals do not see conservatives the same way.

Because many people see it as political, or at least moral. And that means they want to "pick a side"

What's this controversy?

I forgot about Chromebooks—granted, I don't really think of those as what I mean. I don't generally think that "user friendly = restricted and less control", though I'm sure others would disagree. I don't think of Chromebooks as real mainstream Linux.

Oh, and the steam deck has done this I believe, though I don't own one so I don't know how restricted that is either.

Recently built a new PC and clean installed Nobara Linux. It's so much... Better. In every way, except for compatibility—and even that's not close to as bad as people say it is. Granted, I had used mostly open source programs before (still quite disappointed that Playnite isn't available on Linux, I do miss that) but I'm using mostly the same software. The pre-done compatibility fixes etc. that the Nobara team has done (huge props to them!) has made it far easier than i even expected. It really is getting to the point that I want a major laptop/PC manufacturer to ship with a polished, user friendly Linux distro, and get the ball rolling.

Wait, I've been out of the loop for a bit; is Trump actually saying that he should be immune to charges because he was the president??? How in the world could he think that would work?

My biggest test for wireless earbuds is if the case is small enough to fit in that pocket. The usefulness of that is incredible, it's like they're not there.

Quick question—does the kiss launch have the ability to hide apps? This is often a deal breaker for me with launchers
