  • I prefer Luigi when picking my sidekick.

  • Shut the fuck up Bill

  • Not exactly, but kind of. A couple of years back AT&T decided to implement a phone white list where if the phone model you were using wasn't on the list then it wouldn't work on their network even if it was technologically compatible. You could bring your own device, but only if it was on that list. The phone I was using at the time (and every phone after that) was not on the list, so I switched to a carrier that did not have that restriction.

    In my original comment I was being kinda lazy because I didn't want to type the above out.

  • You kinda can. I purchased mine through Clove Technology which ships to the US and am using it with a carrier that allows me to bring my own device.

  • The bikes I am looking to buy for the purpose of commuting over mixed terrain is in the $800-$1,400 price range (as of last year before tariff stuff). I don't currently own a bike but I have owned and ridden a number of bikes in the past. The couple of hundred dollar bikes from like Walmart are just trash that don't hold up. They fall apart pretty quickly under heavy riding.

    All of this assumes one is buying new. If we are talking used then all of the above is somewhat a moot point.

    Even within new the kind of riding matters a lot. If I know for a fact that I would only ever be riding on smooth paved roads then an old fixed frame street bike with skinny tires and very basic brakes and gears would make a lot of sense. There is zero chance that bike is going to be switching between road, grass, gravel, mud, and some of the other terrain I would be commuting across though.

  • All of those facts are irrelevant and distractions though. Assuming that is the case then he should have been tried according to the rules of this country. The point in concentrating on this isn't about the individual, it's about the implication and precedent that is being set for everyone in the future.

  • It looks like it has a decent amount of physical control buttons and knobs instead of all being in the screen which is nice.

  • I'm in the US and while Fairphone doesn't sell the 5 here I was able to "import" it via Clover Technology.

  • I just bought a 1TB SD card and cloned the 512GB card that was in my phone over to it because I was running out of space. My phone is rooted which does make forcing or tricking apps to use the SD card for storage much easier.

  • I assume they will. The problem right now is how volatile and abrupt these policies are. If they make an adjustment now, sell a laptop at that price, and then tomorrow additional tariffs are implemented they may well end up with a loss on that sale to you. The pause is likely just to see where things will stabilize to.

  • Vigilante groups tracking and disabling logging equipment?

  • Still, almost half are OK and happy about this 😮‍💨

  • Henry Kissenger lived to 100 and Carl Sagan died at 62 from cancer. I'm not in anyway religious or superstitious, but given how unfair things can be sometimes I'm not convinced the high heel wearing, pants shitting, Nazi loving sociopath is going to die soon. He somehow survived covid despite having so many risk factors.

    I won't be mad if he does, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

    Also fuck Elon Cuck.

  • All 500,000? They have a lot of space, but not that much.

  • Fuck that! If they are going to pull this shit then make THEM have to pay to transport you.

  • That's not what I would infer from my statement and in conjunction with OPs. Neither of us want or are interested in children. I wasn't talking about all people, I'm talking about myself, OP, and maybe anyone who doesn't want children.

    I think it would be morally wrong to bring a life into the world if I wasn't prepared to put their needs and wants above my own and care for them to the best of my ability, and I would not be capable of doing so if I didn't want them in the first place.
