Thanks for pointing this out. Its been a while since I’ve been to alternativeto.net and thought that’s what OP was linking to, even visiting the site I just figured ‘oh they did a redesign since last time I was here’ totally didn’t dawn on me it was a completely difference site.
True, I guess not. But piracy was big at that age group because we were kids who didn’t have our own money, so if our parents didn’t buy the games we wanted, people would try to download them instead. So I fell into learning this detail by necesssity instead of out of pure curiosity or desire to learn more about the computer. I wanted to download Neverwinter Nights or whatever game, and fat32 was standing in my way, haha
Haha at some point it did matter to regular folks though. I remember in Junior high when I would try to pirate games or software on Windows, I learned the big difference between fat32 and the new filesystem Microsoft released, NTFS because I couldn’t download files larger than 4GB on fat32.
Lol alright dude.
Person A: why are we arguing? This is stupid. I’m done arguing.
Person B: continues arguing
I’m gonna go listen to the Monty Python skit now.
She was a celebrity so she had the status and power to stand up on a soap box and start yelling. I think you’re understating her influence on the American Public. She was on a popular day time talk show ‘The View’ for a while that lots of parents watched while home with their kids during the day.
Also, I honestly don’t know why we’re arguing about this. Both of these people suck and are responsible for the vaccine denial around us. I’m leaving it at that
In the US. It was Jenny McCarthy, she really gained a lot of popular and supporting attention around her wrong views, supported by the fraudulent research of Andrew Wakefield.

Though its interesting this section of her bio is labeled under “Activism” and not “Controversy”.
Oh Jesus Christ dude, I was trying to get you to calm down and stop being so argumentative when we both want the same outcome. No. 2nd. Holocaust.
Take some time and cool off, I didn’t mean to piss you off, and I don’t take the holocaust lighty, I just off the cuff suggested an idea of trying to fight fascism with their own strategies, I dunno how you linked that to “I support Nazi’s”…
Lol you gotta chill out dude. We both don’t want a repeat of the holocaust, we agree on that.
You realize I’m arguing to try to stop what happened to them, from happening to others right? So yah, let’s use corruption to fight corruption, what else do we have to lose? I’m not really sure why you’d be against trying anything to reject recreating the horrors those people lived through and witnessed.
You’re on a moral high horse by telling me more corruption isn’t the answer, while also lecturing me about how horrible it was for those people. Let’s uh… Try whatever the heck might work to not have that happen again? Can we agree on that point at least?
I mean at this point I’d try anything to not recreate Germany circa late 1930’s…
I really doubt the people in concentration camps would have agreed with “ya know what? Maybe fighting corruption with corruption isn’t something worth trying…”
The EU should play his own game and funnel foreign campaign money for none-GOP people through these stores.
Of course we should have done this years ago since at this point we won’t have fair elections, but for a brief moment, I was satisfied with my thought.
Alpine is an interesting choice for hosting, really curious what situation you’re hosting in that would require that level or lightness for a distro?
“What then?”
“Same as it ever was!”
We all fight over resources that actually matter (like food, water, shelter and security) instead the previous things (money), for the enjoyment of our overlords.
Seriously, the people who have power to change the outcome of the future seem to either straight not be planning for this future scenario, or are planning for a horribly distopian version of this future scenario.
My favorite story about best buy is in the early 2000’s, a family member gifted me a $20 gift card to best buy, which unbeknownst to them, I had stopped shopping at because it got too expensive and I started buying from newegg instead. Anyway, I walk in and am thinking 'well I don’t really need anything big right now, like a full PC, laptop, etc. Maybe I’ll just get a DVD or something."
Even with a $20 gift card, Best buy prices were so marked up, they were either still more expensive, or the same price as other stores. I think other stores were selling DVD’s at like $15 (not new-releases) and best buy was $35. I walked out and never ended up buying anything. I’m shocked they’re still around to be honest.
I can confirm the xdrip app works on grapheneOS, currently use it on a pixel 8a
Yo, from one type 1 to another, get yourself some xdrip to replace the dexcom app, its miles ahead and more configurable.

And depending on which omnipod you got, and how technical you are, check out AndroidAPS if you want an open source closed-loop solution.
https://androidaps.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
If you got the omnipod dash you can use it directly with AndroidAPS via Bluetooth.
I use both of these with dexcom G6 and an accu-chek Bluetooth insulin pump, and its amazing vs the commercial solutions.
That’s always been the plan, lol. Look up starve the beast: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starve_the_beast
Starve the beast of funds so the government doesn’t work
Cry how much the government doesn’t work
Shut down the government services and hire out private companies to make even more money with you and your friends.
Profit.
Oh and
Oh and me being able to share this article? Thats why they’re going after Wikipedia, can’t have truth in a post truth world.
