I see. I stopped using Google search in 2008, but had stop using Internet Explorer even earlier. I never did get in the habit of using Chrome. I did not realize that if you opened Chrome, it would automatically be at Google Search.

It certainly appears in the video that Google search is being used to find Vivaldi. Now I'm watching the video on a teeny tiny android phone screen, so maybe I missed something. But that's what it looks like.

Why does your video send people to Google instead of an AI-free and non-tracking search engine?

I might not want to do that if I know it rewards the alphabet evil empire. And I think there are attempts to make it anonymous work, but I haven't proven it. I can't be sure.

Is that video available anywhere that is not part of an evil spyware empire? Perhaps at a peertube site?

I think you are horribly cruel to tell us of such a fascinating story that we cannot buy and cannot read yet. 😁

I cannot sign the petition. It requires one to leave a mobile phone number, so if you don't have a privacy stealing device, you're not allowed to sign it. It won't take your signature without it. How did you do it?

I personally know several people who are fantastic artists and draw, paint, or fabricate artifacts and some who sculpt and some tattoo artists and they are all amazing. But amazing as they are. Nobody makes cartoons anything like this guy. This stuff is magic about magic. 😁 I can never get too much of it.

pretty, but I do not see how you start a manual update scan of the repos. Or how you do manual app updates. Those were normal procedures I do at least once daily with the older version. It should be interesting to see how this differs.

I believe this should be entirely up to you. Personally, if you make four individual panels and join them in a post, that's much easier for me to read because I'm older than some rocks. But the more important thing to me is do you enjoy what you're doing, and are you doing it in a way that avoids burning you out? Because what format you choose to post it in is far less painful than having you burn out and stop posting!

I am convinced that not all of them are that terribly fascist, but the ones that aren't, are abysmal cowards who are afraid to speak up or contradict their leadership. Criminals, fascists, abysmal cowards, and idiots are among the kinds of people we do not need representing us in the U.S. Congress or elsewhere.

Georgia, being what it is, she might have known she was pregnant earlier, but been unable to get medication earlier. This case is disturbing in so many ways, and not the least of which is that it exists at all.

I am so looking forward to the day that the prices for the extra components memory especially drop. But not more than I'm looking forward to when this becomes available virtually worldwide There are some Linux phones available in the USA, but they cost down the order of a thousand dollars or more. And frankly, I trust your phones more.

Personally, I treasure every one of them. They do ring so true, but that is part of what makes them amusing. And brilliant.

I have been following your work and enjoying it very much, starting from before this AI bubble inflated. Anyone who could make such an accusation is simply ignorant. I have to admit, some of your work actually looks too good to be a human construct: but I know better.

we have national shortages of all of the medical professions everywhere in the country. He's blocking ACA insurance or making it cost through the roof so no one can afford it, eliminated 90% of medical research in the country, and almost destroyed the CDC. Now we're going to have fewer nurses, doctors, therapists of all kinds and lab technicians because they will no longer get the professional level of education, loan support, and most can't get the degree without it. Clearly, his goal is to make the United States a disease-ridden third world nation.

Not arguing with any of your points there, but this story was about food stamps and not about ICE.

Do you have the basic information and conclusions in a document anywhere so that nobody has to go to the Spyware Institute at YouTube in order to see your results? If you don't need income from it, you could put up the video on a YouTube instance.

The only way I would love my Kindle more is if it was made by a company I could respect. Of course, if it could run Linux, that would make it even better.

The company I worked for gave Kindles as a Christmas gift one year. I would prefer a Linux tablet, but I'd have to shell out my own money for that and I'm now on a fixed income. Stuck!

I don't know who you think you're talking to, but you should be talking to the administrator of your Mastodon site. Each individual site has an individual administrator and that administrator is the one who can decide to allow or block on their site. If they all choose to block, then we don't have to deal with that. If yours doesn't, you might have to move to another site with an administrator who won't put up with this.

The form will not allow me to sign the petition without my going out and buying a mobile phone and then giving them the number. I'm not doing that.

99% of my mail can go through any mail server and it doesn't matter. 1% of it needed to be secure and I needed a mail service that was secure. At that time, Tutanota was the best I could get for free. Since then, it's only gotten better.
