I’m showing it from a basic search. Are you using a fork of F-Droid?

Organic Maps is available on F-Droid.

If you work 40 hours a week and you STILL can’t afford to pay basic living expenses, then your economy sucks.

We have to accept false dichotomies because the only alternative is cannibalism.

6:30am “Vrrrrroooooooooooooomm!” for about a minute.

Silence for 45 seconds.

“Vrrrooooooooooooom!” for about a minute.

Repeat for the next 1 1/2 hours.

Trump later claimed that he may have drawn more supporters on Jan. 6, 2021 than “Martin Luther King when he did his speech.”

1. Lol, No. And
2. Make sure you remind people about January 6th as often as possible, Donald. You know, the day you tried to overthrow the government. You absolute idiot.

This. It feels to me like driving a stick shift when you’ve been using an automatic transmission for years. You have to do a little more fiddling but I honestly don’t mind learning a new OS that isn’t actively working against me.

With Windows . . . on the other hand . . . every time I’ve had to go “under the hood” (tweak Registry settings, Config files, etc) it’s been to prevent Microsoft from doing something crappy to me.

You might want to check out Libre Office. It’s document compatible with MS-Office and I think it comes pre-installed on Linux Mint.

I checked out Mod Organizer 2 recently, but it didn’t support Subnautica the last time I tried it. I only use mods for a few games, line Stardew Valley and the Fallout games.

Same here. If I could get Vortex Mod Manager to work under Wine/Proton, I wouldn’t use Windows at all.

“Project 2025 will weaken the middle class.”

Project 2025 will destroy the middle class. It is a guide to creating a Judge Dredd universe where the only people living in it will be the Super Rich and Super F*cking Poor. They’re not even trying to hide it.

There are many creatures in nature that warn others that they are toxic or dangerous by having bright colors, warning sounds or by wearing little red hats.

I didn’t think the MAGAs could find a stupider fashion accessory than those dumb, red hats but somehow, they found a way.

Our government was corrupted the moment the courts accepted the “Corporations are people/ Money is speech” arguments. At that moment, the government stopped representing the needs of ordinary people and only represented the needs of billionaires and their lobbyists.

It’s taking a long time to play out but it’s going to end badly.

Equilateral triangle. All three sides are equal length and it has three interior angles that add up to exactly 180 degrees.

There’s a couple of YouTube videos where urban explorers re-visited Chernobyl many years after the accident. They explored the area around the plant and visited the hospital where Russian firefighters were taken after they were exposed to debris from the reactor’s core.

Their clothing was seriously contaminated and was removed and stored in a room in the hospital’s basement. The explorers visited the basement where the clothing is still stored today. They didn’t get close to the clothing because it is still contaminated. As in, “not safe to enter the room” contaminated.

LISTER: What makes you think these aliens exist?

RIMMER: They must do, Lister! There’s so many things that are strange and odd. So many things we don’t have any explanation for.

LISTER: Like, um, why do intelligent people buy cinema hot dogs? Do you mean that sort of weird and mysterious thing?

RIMMER: No, Lister, I mean like the pyramids. How did they move such massive pieces of stone without the aid of modern technology?

LISTER: They had massive whips, Rimmer. Massive, massive whips.

Oscar the Grouch is a scavenger.

The point (which I guess I needed to point out) is that this isn’t a work of fiction, anymore. Government has been granted unprecedented power to conduct surveillance on innocent people with no warrants or accountability. Companies carry out data harvesting and location tracking in nearly every consumer product connected to the Internet. Microsoft has literally incorporated spyware into Windows 11 (CoPilot / Recall). We are living in a real life surveillance state right NOW and our government and corporations are clearly fine with it. And that’s where the “how-to” guide comes into it. That’s the BAD THING. I really didn’t think I needed to spell it out, but damn.

The only rebellion shown in the book is Goldstein’s manifesto and even that turns out to be a lie. The State invented Goldstein’s rebellion to weed out Thought criminals. And Winston fell for it.
