Piratebay.

I mean, you’re not alone. I got so fed up with ads because it was always junk I needed but couldn’t afford, or shit I already knew existed and had otherwise already acquired with satisfactory results. Not to mention ads following me around. I hated being haunted by a pair of sneakers across four websites.

It’s not paranoia if you’re right, dammit.

Eh. In my experience, DeWalt tends to have more power and punch, and the batteries last longer. Makita’s impact drivers (at least the ones my company got) really just never had the torque to tighten bolts down to the right NM or ft/lb. I needed. They’ll do, I’d rather use an impact driver than nothing. But if I get to pick, I’ll pick a DeWalt.

Absolutely not.

Back when DivestOS was operational, they maintained a database of bugs, flaws, and security holes that the E Foundation and Murena refused to patch.

• MicroG isn’t a secure front-end, it still phones home to Google.
• Their native IP scrambler is just an old fork of TOR
• Their webview (the core of every phone’s ability to run a web application from Lemmy to Fruit Ninja) doesn’t have hardened measures to prevent interference.
• The bootloader stays unlocked. This means that the most essential feature for your safety, the metaphorical lock on the front door of your house, is left broken and loose.

Hell no, do not use /e/os. Use Lineage. Use Grapheme. Use Linux Mobile. Use literally anything else.

Because they fucking stole it from me! I’ll be damned if I let a machine–intelligent or not–force me into changing the way I, an individual, choose to express myself in my own language!

Depends on the place and the people around.

Pride? 0, easy.

Anti-Trump protest? On my side of the line, easy 2-3.

Need help at the grocery store? Eh. 4. If it ain’t that important, it ain’t that important.

Texas? Inside Austin, 7.

Outside of Austin? 10.

Big sea of red hats like it was a sea of red armbands in Berlin? Fuck that.
