Fluffychat on Android mobile. Feels familiar.
Well well well, would you look at that.
A government in Starmer’s words, dedicated to service. A government delivering for Labour, the ruling party’s namesake. The trains will be running again, and the government too, will be running again with much of the Conservative incompetence sacked.
I would argue they are effective in some areas, by offering confidential telehealth services that prescribe medication for those who have a NM mailing address and are in NM at the time of virtual visit, but a patient can be resident of any state regardless of what is banned there. Besides abortion, the group has had successes against religious favoritism in schools and legislative buildings, be it chaplains, after school programs, bringing to the forefront the fact the right is trying to force the church and state together into a fascist theocracy. Also, losing cases on allowing abortions for religious reasons, is not for nothing either, as it can make it difficult for religious groups to use faith as justification for the opposite for example.
Again, I totally agree with you that abortion isn’t this group’s main subject of expertise or most influential division compared to other groups, but to say they aren’t effective and that they do nothing but take people’s money, I don’t think is true and I haven’t seen enough credible evidence to think otherwise either. I argue that while fighting religion with religion isn’t necessarily the most effective in all cases, it is one avenue of many to pursue against the puritan agenda and that’s what I believe the niche that TST fills.
I would agree they aren’t the “most suited” organization to save abortion as there are many groups, like Planned Parenthood and others that are more dedicated to abortion access in the hardest places to obtain them. As far as I understand the TST’s primary focus is asserting freedom of association and ensuring government policy does not favour one particular religion. Abortion rights are then a corollary campaign under that.
If a woman’s right to choose is being needlessly restricted due to religious pressures, using a group registered as religious to curb them would occur to me as a reasonable route to pursue simultaneously, even if not all the money would have been donated to groups that specialize in abortion access.
Ah of course. Americans tie so much success and personal welfare to employment, that’s the problem! An UBI would help everyone succeed then we wouldn’t be too worried about immigrants /s.
It’s a useful tool, but there is a security concern for anything not fully open source. You will have to weigh your risk factors, I doubt that it’s any problem for most consumers or distro hoppers.
Best to keep an eye in case any new contributers arrive suddenly…
Welcome to the club!
I really feel this especially related to mobile (cellphone and tablet) communications: (Google Pixel is the only device offering substantial support for alternative OSes, Mobile Payment Processors rely on one of the big names like Google, Apple, Samsung etc., other projects becoming unmaintained and supporting 10 year old phones, etc.)
In the personal (laptop and desktop) computing space we are in a much better place. You are much less beholden to companies’ interest in harvesting data on every aspect of your life.
Sure, we can lament that most people don’t care. But look where we are now: I have daily driven my Linux box for a year to play all the games that are in style with my friends without Microsoft constantly over my shoulder. I’m on Lemmy and other Fediverse platforms, unbeholden to specific corporate policies. I use Beeper which means I don’t have to have Meta apps harvesting interaction behaviour directly on my primary cellphone. I can’t win every battle for my privacy and freedom, but each conscious choice I have that I make is a statement of resistance, and one step of many towards my ideal of the computer world I wish to be in.
What compounded the issue was that one of the nixpkgs maintainers had been closing all relevant issues, which redirects the discussion to HA forums. No matter how many times it is repeated “we at NixOS have no intention on putting extra work on the developer”, the actions speak differently.
One or more maintainers later apologized, judging downthread it seems this was mostly resolved amicably between the people involved. No reason to get upset about it again three years later.
His code breaking something, or him not understanding a system he’s not involved with doesn’t mean he is obligated to listen to complaints or fix it for free.
I bet Larian is like, “Oh no, Hasbro this is terrible! We locked down the editor best we could, but those conniving hackers broke the protections to make creative custom content for our game. What will we ever do? 😏”
*Trump reveals his latest scam to extract money from his rubes.
FTFY
Haitian mig-r? Lol. Clearly the man is too used to saying the N word off public broadcast.
I.e. “Time flies when you’re not having fuck?”
Now’s the time to pin this stupid bullcrap to Senator Cruz especially, so that he may be unseated this November.
I’m sure that s stands for police union spokesperson.
Honestly, I won’t hold it against IAM leader Holden too much. Boeing would stall and give shitty and completely worthless offers, then at the last minute double the largest point of contention (wage), so it looked fine from the lens of bargaining trade-offs.
Still, the workers are right to put this offer into the trash bin, sending a clear message to IAM leaders they have far more leverage, and to Boeing management that union members have lost all patience for their penny-pinching.
That’s part of the reason why new community oriented projects are way more interesting to me now than most software. There are some outliers in the space who still have dedicated people in their craft rather than for money but it is fewer and farther between.
