  • By him leaving it so late, there was really no other practical option. That's 100% on Biden and the milquetoast establishment dems around him.

  • “Thank you, Madam Chair,”

    This is perfect.

  • The public defenders would probably do a better job though...

  • Probably a lot. I was very annoyed myself, though it made android pretty similar to the situation on iOS where you can't replace the default messaging app anyway.

    It's an area where I think we need a bunch of stuff:

    1. Antitrust regulation to force companies to use open standards and allow customization
    2. Folks like the Signal Foundation should get over themselves and run their project like a real open source project, where others can fork/modify/run both the server side and client side.

    There's so much anti-competitive bullshit regarding #1 from all sides, from carriers to Apple to Google to device manufacturers.

  • I think fewer people are actually using SMS than you'd think though - it's been quietly replaced with RCS.

  • They had a good blog post about why - their take was that SMS is dying and the replacement was a moving target that was hard to support for reasons I'm forgetting. I agree it hurt them tremendously though.

  • PopOS Nvidia version for Nvidia machines - much better experience.

  • Yeah but if the truck is free and better than your current car...

  • The wise

  • "Then he must be a noble beast indeed," said Aragorn; "and it grieves me more than many tidings that might seem worse to learn that Sauron levies such tribute. It was not so when last I was in that land."

    "Nor is it now, I will swear," said Boromir. "It is a lie that comes from the Enemy. I know the Horse Freaks of Rohan; true and valiant, our allies, dwelling still in the lands that we gave them long ago."

    Kemp tries to make sure everyone forgets about his own election shit by appearing sane and reasonable on 2020. NPR provides the platform.

  • They want you to access everything through search and recently accessed because its so intuitive. It's like they want computers to be as hard to use as possible for people who need to do actual work on many projects in any sort of organized way.

    Also, now that IT has integrated everything with OneDrive, I routinely have to wait for my own files to be redownloaded before accessing them.

  • I'm glad you are still with us, please stay.

  • Medical is now less limited in Iowa (surprised the clinic people aren't advertising yet here on Fediverse) but it's all edibles and concentrates - no flower. Because reasons?

  • Depends on how new your hardware is - distros with new kernels work much better on many brand new machines.

  • PopOs Nvidia version is amazing for common gaming laptops.

  • It's like watching my parents try to meme and I'm here for it.

  • Environment @midwest.social

    Would you like some wildfire smoke with that?

    How's the air in your area? Eastern Iowa is gross at the moment.

    American Persimmon tree setting fruit for the first time

    Eastern Iowa - excited to finally get fruit from one of these guys. If you aren't familiar, the whole genus is worth a Wikipedia browse.
