I use CalyxOS on a Pixel w/an unlocked bootloader (not too hard)
Install was easy - a gui app on your desktop
I'm a low demand phone user, happy with the selection of apps available on f-droid
Works great and has a millon little security features preset to optimal general settings and they can all be customized per app
ymmv

It's how people indicate class in the absence of clear social markers as would have been present in the past (clothes, accent, geography etc.)
It's also why so many people who aren't from the upper class wear 'bling' or buy a house that's too big or a flashy car -- conspicuous consumption as a 'fake it til you make it' method of deluding the gullible.
Con men have great suits and will tell you that they're in 'finance'.

Could you get away with syncthing and online storage? Not sure if you can easily just buy storage - ie: you might need to set up a server on digital ocean or linode or something instead of paying dropbox.
Inconvenient to set up, but probably really easy to maintain and won't change until you want it to.

It's not half, that's the subtext of the corporate news. It's about 15% or so.
We easily outnumber them, it's just that the parasitical elites are happy to use them to maintain position and power so they amplify those views.
Our despair is part of their methodology; we can resist that while acknowledging the corruption of their biased ideology and the necessity of our taking action.
We're the good guys and we'll win if we act together, even as individuals. 😅

I tried to report a nazi server when I first started using this account (I joined years earlier, but never really used the account.)
Admin DM'd me saying something like "we don't block people for having stupid opinions."
I thought I'd stepped over some social line, so I was meek about it. New here on Mastodon, etc.
Now I think I'll have to move as well...

It's deep in the NPR/MSNBC crowd that I speak to, never mind the ragesticks
It's a moral laxity that they're *proud of*. They come off as Olympian observers and hold themselves separate from everyone else
It's the flip-side of the same coin that motivates the ragesticks
They see themselves, on a level so deep that they can't articulate it, as better than
The difference is the ragesticks want you to fear them for it, and the libs want you to love them for it

Does anyone have a good recommendation for an external usb 3+ 4-bay enclosure?
They just keep failing. The drives are always fine, it's the damn boards in the case that just seems to effing fail.
I thought these Yottamaster were gonna last, the old Mediasonic ones all failed too.
Criminy! as my internal '40s PI would say.

I think it is, it's just that they take our words and invert them.
We all have cognitive biases that let them get away with it. Repetition legitimizes.

When I was a baby, under 4, when I was put down for a nap, I would take out this album and play it on my little kids record player with the volume at 0.
4-year old ears are really sensitive. 😀

Is a decentralized ride-share app a possibility?
How could safety be handled? Geographic-based servers? Some sort of in-person process for becoming federated? It would slow growth, but that seems like it would be wise, to me at least.
Just noodling here.

Sorry to hear that, I was only trying to see if there was any hope.
Might be worth asking the new project what's up.

UK ruling culture (ie: English Bastards) is what the US is based upon.
A huge number of plantations are a result of 'second son' 'nobility' that poisoned the Caribbean and migrated to the South in the US.

Didn't mean it as your motivation, either positive or negative, for money but as your conditioning to always feel the need to be productive - that there is no place in our society for rest, reflection or recovery.
And that this has been done to keep you producing wealth for the vampire class or consuming the products of others who also thus profit the vampire class.
Further, we are so atomized and individuated by it that the natural impulses of community and family are blunted into a dull exhaustion and desperate desire to obtain some private result or pleasure with our 'free time' that might feel like a benefit to us individually.
My larger point is that you ought not to judge yourself with any contempt for how you've felt - you've been subjected to the most complex and unremitting propaganda any society has ever been subjected to.
