yeah I had been using Niagara on my pixel 6 but it's a little too effective for me, my main desire with getting this phone was for it to be less of a distraction so I went with before launcher and set it to text only, no icons.

so far it's been very good at doing what I need it to and then getting out of the way but I haven't had it for a full week yet so I'm not fully decided on it.

very late response but you sold me on it.

I had the same thought and then landed on... I really fucking hope it is at least

I never took it as hate, just an acknowledgement of the simplicity of thinking about your digital watch and going "you know what? this thing is pretty neat!"

that being said it's been a while since I read the books so maybe I'm misremembering some serious digital watch hate from later on.

personally I think my Casio is pretty neat and I also am unhappy for pretty much of the time, largely due to the movements of small green pieces of paper :)

A+ ⭐ 🏆

that last line especially is beautiful, sounds like it was written by Adams himself.

have you read the short story The Libertarian Police Department? I've always thought the author channeled Adams' ghost for that one :)

Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun.

Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape- descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.

This planet has – or rather had – a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn’t the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.

And so the problem remained; lots of the people were mean, and most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches.

okie! :3

you're severely confused. you are so far outside the Overton window of this 'verse that you don't even share familiar vernacular. liberals/Democrats are dirty words to most people here because they're too conservative. most of us are leftists socialists anarchists and communists (fuck tankies)

edit: woah holy necro I thought this was /all

I'm not sure I agree. it sounds like Bishop Budde really hurt his fee fees

we coulda had a bad bitch 😭

that's hilarious, you should introduce them to the old DWH rate, and include that it was a mandatory grind for every iron lmao

what?

cries in osrs*

I am not confident that you fully understand how a VPN works tbh. not meaning to be rude by that, just an observation. who are the "they" you're speaking of here? the ISP? a governmental agency? local law enforcement? are you claiming that there is a place where the ISP will clock your traffic as going through a VPN, contact local law enforcement to arrest you for that alone? I have never heard of such a thing but that's spooky if true. do you have any sources of it happening?

where can that be grounds for arrest?

yeah China is on the list so I'll definitely be getting one haha

yeah agreed I haven't gotten a VPN yet but I plan to get one for travelling... but idk is there something I don't know about vpns that could make them worse?

how can using a VPN be worse than not?
