Thank you for somewhat restoring my head cannon haha

TIL then I guess. If I imagine someone saying this in a US accent, I just can’t picture it haha

Are we Australians rubbing off on the international English lexicon? I don’t know how to feel about this haha

End capitalism. It’s no coincidence all these countries are pushing this in lockstep.

End goal is the death of online freedom.

Get angry, get involved in your local politics to bring democracy to the workplace and the economy.

It’s not gonna get better otherwise.

If they try to retire classic outlook I’m gonna riot.

Windows 11 is bad and I was unhappy when I got moved onto it, but is bearable. New outlook is unusable if you get a large number of emails every day for work.

They decided: let’s rebuild it with none of the features!!

It’s funny because in Australia it’s even non-religious (well the churches I’ve heard of).

That’s how based the UU is.

All be welcome, yo.

Seek the truth and serve humanity.

my friends

Pls convince them otherwise.

Definitely, but we can’t let this crime against humanity happen in the first place.

Recently?

The irony of having this in the middle of the article

We did just fine before these existed. They should just be outright banned, and the existing ones be phased out in some way where the owners aren’t completely screwed (though, if I were being vindictive I’d say tough shit, you shouldn’t have participated in this arms race)

America is a capitalist hellscape, but so is China.

Unions and strikes in-practice are banned.

They seem kinda equivalent on workers rights, to me.

I’m with you on being against capitalism, but UBI isn’t convincing as a solution to me.

UBI pre-supposes that the rich and their corporations should have a monopoly on the means of production, and you still have capitalism, just that the population are guaranteed an income via high taxes. But the power structure, and undemocratic nature of capitalist controlling everything still exists.

UBI is some dystopian stuff if you don’t combine it with getting rid of the ruling class and the other tools of capitalist oppression.

But yeah, I agree with you that we certainly ought to be working less than we are (yes, even if standards of living were more fairly distributed to poor countries), and in the future I also agree with you that we ought to be working way, way less of technology allows for it.

No worries friend :)

You can place things anywhere down to the pixel, not just snapped to a grid like with Nova (though, there is option for a grid of apps, also).

It’s a bit of fiddly process if it’s complicated, but you can layer and place things however you want.

There is no dock, you can however pin items to show on every screen, which is basically the same thing, so that would also fit that criterion.

Also 4 swipe directions on icons for extra shortcuts beyond tap (last I used nova, it was just up and down? It’s been many years).

Basically, can highly recommend Total Launcher, though in fairness, I have not tried some of the other launchers listed by others here.

The one time fee for pro is pretty affordable, iirc. The Dev is also pretty responsive via email

If crazy levels of customisation is the reason you use it, Total Launcher did the trick for me.

World governments: I feel so unappreciated for all the help I continuously provide ☹️

They do actually have an in-built skip for this. It’s not as good as sponsor block though

They aren’t completely equivalent, though it’s pretty close, sadly.

I agree that it’s better for someone to get involved with a third party, but if that third party’s electoral strategy is to simply try and receive more votes, then they’re actively hurting under the US’ terrible voting system. (This is under the assumption that this third party is less right wing that the Democrats, and that you don’t want the Republicans to win).

Any third party that is actively campaigning on getting preferential voting across the line by influencing the Democrats from the outside (yeah, first part the post is that terrible that this is necessary), or is revolutionary in nature, is okay in my books.

The rest are doing active harm because of the spoiler effect.

“Blue no matter who” is really, really dumb, and people really ought to get involved with groups within and without the Democrats to vigorously push for electoral reform, and better yet the abolition of capitalism and implementation of actual democracy (the US can barely be considered a democracy).

Parties that just are campaigning on: ‘Hey! Vote for us because we’re better’ with no actual strategy of changing the system are dumb, also.

If your software runs on windows or MacOS, this point is such bull, sorry.

Do you monitor what software people have installed accessing their banking needs on those platforms?

Gotta love the spoiler effect :3 yikes first past the post sucks
