  • I've known many people that Americans would consider Middle Eastern who considered themselves to be African.

  • Fire works on Android and is meant to do basically the same thing. I saw someone post it in another thread, but haven't explored it in depth.

  • This is interesting. I didn't know there were so many different systems.

  • Permissions looks normal for what it does. App scanner shows no trackers, but it does seem to use Google Firebase and Google login apis. I didn't install it to look at network traffic. If anyone does, I'd be curious.

  • Based on the description elsewhere in the comments, they don't sound very similar. ProtonPlus is just a download tool that lets you see and download or delete updates for all the various versions of Proton, so you don't have to visit a bunch of different Githubs. It doesn't let you see or change which version each game is using, which it sounds like ProtonUp does.

  • Well, you're right and I'm surprised I've never thought of this before.

  • AI can generate images of things that don't even exist. If it knows what porn looks like and what a child looks like, it can combine those concepts.

  • Where I live, the local government is all at-large, so no one runs as a member of any party, but you can separate everyone into two groups of "people who want the town to provide basic services", like parks and libraries, and "people who want to keep property taxes as low as possible" by not spending money on any services.

  • This is what I did. I narrowed down the distros I was looking at to about 5 that I thought might meet my needs, and made a live usb for each one, then used it as I would my regular system for a couple days. Anything that didn't work right got eliminated, and I picked the one I liked best out of the ones where everything worked.

  • If he's keeping Windows to begin with, then logically he may still update it. It's helpful to know that it might mess up his Linux installation.

  • I found a very similar one, also in Germany, many years ago. I figured mine was a cow tooth, although I'm not sure how old it was. Most people no longer kept cows in that town at the time that I lived there.

  • Sub Rosa is good, although not free. I stopped using Proton because it's so difficult to download emails. I use my ISP now.

  • Yeah, I don't even remember the last time I wore a watch. No reason now that everything has a clock built in.
