Good idea. I dont know why that didnt occur to me, i actually have a tablet that i could use for that.

A pocket linux pc would be great. Why do you want to keep the sim in the normie phone? Or is that just in case you get a handheld that doesnt have a sim slot?

Whats the issue with taking (1) and/or (3) in international trips? Is it about those countries that want to search you phone at the airport?

Yea, maybe not a bad idea, depending on the price and how many years of updates it still has.

Ive used Insular, that creates a “work” profile, mainly because the apps become somewhat hidden and it allows for a different password than the main profile. So I can share my main pin for other people to use my phone while still keeping the banking apps out of reach. But some apps just wont work if they detect a custom rom or even unlocked bootloader, even in insular.

Sure. I dont want to demonize people that arent left. Theres a portion of those that align with us on certain topic, some are apathic, and some are also violently against us.

Sure I may be taken by propaganda sometimes. Its not easy to tell. But focusing on specific issues helps clear that a bit. Someone that calls themselves “left” but doesnt believe in a completely socialized healthcare system, do they really have a leftist view on this topic? Im all for joining forces for some cause, but are the wealthy “leftists” really for, or against, inheritance taxes, socialized healthcare, …?

Besides, this doesnt touch on the issues of social networks priviledging certain political positions. If you look at instagram, most posts that appear are recomendations of the network to the specific user, rather than posts of who they follow. The interface pushes you off of what you intended to see and into a personalised recomendations playlist. Demobilizing “progressive” content à la us Democrat party gets normal reach in those platforms, while actual mobilizing content gets reduced reach.

There is a finger on the scale though. Youre underestimating its weight. When we disagree on the “left” having money and sharing stuff, etc, i think we actually just disagree on who is the left. In my view, the left is probably a smaller group than in your view. This smaller group i consider left doesnt have much money, and does get a diminished voice in social media despite engaging a lot (relative to its demographic proportion).

I asked which approach requires more money, not who has more. You said the left doesnt want to spend that money, ok. Maybe the mass of liberals collectively has more money, maybe. Not the left though. And the network cooperation part? Which agendas are being priviledged by the recomendation algorithms in social medias?

Which approach do you think requires more money and cooperation from the network management?

If people receive low wages to do a job that no one wants to do, sorry but it isnt a great country.

Secret ballots are really important. There should be an effort into making in person voting more accessible and ending postal voting imo. Not american though, but i know my country historically had a very big problem of people being coerced to vote for certain candidates. The vote now is secret, spreaded all around the country and public transportation is free on voting days, which are on weekends.

Alright. I guess it depends on the types o tasks we have, and how our memories behave.

These home chores are not that complex that I need remiders. But I do have a list of stuff to buy, like food and cleaning products, on a shared text file (a shared google keep note actually, forgive me for my sins), and every tuesday or so one of us goes to the market to get those (we alternate).

Basically, whenever I have time to work on something, I try to do the most important and time sensitive things on my todo list. If I dont have enough time to do those, then I wont, and thats it, what can I do?

Getting notifications about my todo lists is just annoying to me. When i wanna look at what i need to do i just open the list and look at it. I prefer not to pollute my notification with that

I made up that speed just to give an example. The thing about pausing/resuming is an advantage of torrents in general, for whoever needs it. Besides, when you download a file via DDL the speed also depends on the server thats sending, which is sometimes much slower than your download speed limit.

I think its a fair assumption that most people make that whatever data which isnt explicitly displayed to a regular user is not public. Having likes be public but hidden is misleading.

Assuming people use a vpn is a bit of a stretch. I dont know anyone that does that constantly.

You download from a bunch of other people at the same time. So if you have a 300mb/s connection and 5 people have the file and are uploading at 20mb/s, it gets a chunk of the file fron each of them, so you would download at 100mb/s.

Besides, you can pause and resume the download as much as you want without corrupting the file. So if youre dowloading a 50gb folder, you can turn your pc off, and continue later. With DDLs, the download link expires and most browsers cant resume downloads properly. Plus if the browser corrupts the download you have to start over. The torrent uses checksums to detect corrupted parts of the file and redownloads just that small part, and in the end you get a clean file.

Its not a glitch, it is putting word after word just as it was programmed to do.

How would you feel if a foreign power invaded your country to spy and destabilize your government and economy under the pretext of a supposed war on drugs, using what is evidently the wrong tools and methods for the supposed job?
