Is Android a valid answer? Maybe not Google's monstrosity but AOSP (although I feel as though it's hard to extricate one from the other save for projects like GrapheneOS).
I had a crush on a girl during the last few months of my last semester in undergrad (we were both going to grad school in different states). Beautiful and smart, we talked a lot during class discussions, we texted each other once in a while. This girl had me daydreaming while driving and cheesing hard while singing to pop songs with the windows rolled down. So I decide to ask her out. We meet up at a coffee shop, turns out the coffee shop is closed but we walk over to an ice-cream shop and talk and flirt for hours. We hug goodbye and I'm beaming on my way back home. We continue texting back and forth for a few days and I decide to ask her out once again. I ask if Saturday works for her and she replies that she's going to be celebrating her third anniversary with her boyfriend on Saturday but maybe Sunday would work. I had no idea she had a boyfriend, so needless to say, that went nowhere. Or rather, we both went our separate ways and I'm still considering reaching out once I'm done with grad school.
They absolutely do! I don't understand the snobbery against audiobooks. When Borges lost his sight he had to have books read to him, and just consider the amazing stories he came up with (and the literary devices he developed) to make up for his blindness.
Last year I was on a road trip and we stopped by a convenience store in the middle of nowhere. Bought so many Fujifilm 200 rolls since they were like $2 each. No clue why they were so cheap, they were even 36-negative rolls.
I do for niche communities, especially those for reading / books / literature. There’s fewer of those here on Lemmy, and the ones in languages other than English are nonexistent.
Yeah here you go! It was actually this article that sent me down the rabbit hole that prompted the TIL. Been reading about the Panama Papers since I posted this LOL
My experience was exactly like you describe, I see we even ended up using the same instance. Only reason I chose this one was because it was the top option in the Memmy app.
