The cancelling of the email account is not the reason. Its a very small part of the reason. The reason is that the US has for decades been fascist (as I have been saying in other threads, it didn’t turn fascist overnight with the election of one man), imperialist, and generally a bully. As the UK was before it (and still is, apparent from their aid to the genociders), and as all empires have been and will be. It’s always been fascist just been very good at biding it’s time before “going public” with it, while working from the shadows to further its own agenda.

Its time we in Europe stop pretending that the US is capable of being anything other than an enemy. Its not just trump. If they do it once, theyll do it again. Whether its 1, 2, or several administrations down the line. We need to start distancing ourselves from them ASAP

This seems like an easy implementation, and I can skip the variable and just directly check the timestamp from the script i guess. My question is, if I install something, say yay -S a_single_package does that also update the timestamp of the core.db file?

Ive got one (not the one you mentioned) which is quite good. I don’t think its quite at the level of the one you said, but it should be decent.

If that’s the case I’ll turn this into an exercise. I’ll make a simple testing circuit once I’m done with my thesis and see how many I can save. Worst case I get some practice. Best case I get a set of switches for free and recycle. Most likely I’ll fry some, save others, and have a stock of spares and some experience. Thanks!

I wouldn’t call myself skilled by any means, but I have some experience with it, and have some tools available (flux, wick, etc)

Ok, I might be dumb, but I dont get the text on the top of the meme. Anyone care to explain?

No worries! Heres a link to their forums if you want to give it a peek for research

/e/os is a degoogled os, so not out of the box. Im not sure if you can opt to install them yourself later (why would you though) and i dont want to put any of that crap on this just to test it. The closest to a google thing it has is gApps, which is an open source implementation of google services.

Second this! Got mine from murena a couple days ago and its brilliant

I switched because of neovim, and got used to it. I was never the kind of guy to press caps to type capitals, always just kept shift pressed down with my pinky, so i basically never used the caps key anyway

Commenting because fellow caps-esc swap enthusiast, and I would like to know the answer as well

Could you elaborate on what you mean please?

Edit: I seem to be getting downvotes, so Id just like to clarify, I wasnt being smart or sarcastic in any way, just genuinely didnt understand what the comment OP meant xD

Dont go period. Even before this situation I was actively opposed to it. What people seem to conveniently forget is that the US didn’t suddenly become a fascistic empire overnight because of the election of one man. Its been like this, just less “in your face” about it. Most people only seem to care now because now there is a big negative effect on the USA itself as well as other western countries, but previously while it was some south-east asian, or middle-eastern, or south-american (you get the point) country most people conveniently turned a blind eye and just consumerismed.

Ive been learning video editing with Shotcut recently. Its FOSS

Thanks, and yea that was my bad, shouldnt have phrased it like that in the context of this thread. I only just noticed after reading your comment. Hopefully its good for me, im excited for it :))

As far as im aware (and please correct me if im wrong) that is true but the company is European based in the Netherlands, and given their dedication to paying and treating workers fairly I still think its a viable option for a non-US brand phone that is still competitive.

Check out Fairphone! Its really promising on the hardware side of things. I ordered mine with /e/os a couple days ago

I dont. Theyve been fascists in disguise whether intentionally or by their own stupidity for decades, causing so much pain across the world. Its high time they felt that pain themselves, and ill be relishing every bit of suffering they have to endure. I just hope im alive long enough to see the empires fall
