Sweeeet! I’m stoked for you and your fellow residents!

How so very pretty! :) Thank you for sharing it’s beauty with us 💕

That was so kind and thoughtful of you to ask him to help out OP, and of him to share suggestions. It’s also good thinking on your part to ask him - he sounds like the perfect person to ask!

I’ve been struggling with my faith in humanity (or lack of) and stuff like this helps me think there are still decent people out there who just want to help others. Thank you. Genuinely. I needed it.

Badass! This was a very interesting article, as are other articles linked in this one that tell more about the protests. I think these two were my favorites of what I clicked through to read:

‘We’ve Proved That Change Is Possible’ – But Serbia Protesters Unsure of Next Move

I hope so much that they’re able to get the positive change they’re after. I’m proud of them.

As always, thank you for sharing this with us, Alyaza!

Oooh, this sounds neat! I’m not who you were replying to, but I wanted to thank you for mentioning the Emerald Sea glass ROM hack! I hadn’t yet heard of it and I’m looking forward to checking it out.

Good! Thanks for sharing these. Looks like this one is locked behind a login screen, so here’s a screenshot for anyone who wants it:

Yay! You’re so very welcome! I’m happy to help :)

I’m happy to help! :)

Catbox wouldn’t allow me to upload the unzipped .exe, so I uploaded a zipped version, I hope that’s alright. Here’s the direct link: https://files.catbox.moe/e8x17h.zip

Let me know if there’s any issue or if I accidentally grabbed the wrong file or anything

That’s super helpful, thank you for sharing! I appreciate it :)

I’m not sure if they’ve got it posted anywhere else, but if you can tell me which file you’re wanting, I’d be happy to download it with my account and upload it for you somewhere else and link it here. Let me know if you have a preferred place for me to upload it (or, if not, if there’s anywhere you definitely don’t want to download it from - I’m guessing no Google, haha!)

Edit: Here is a link to screenshot of the files list in case you can’t see it without an account

This was a great article, thank you for sharing it with us here, Alyaza!

I especially appreciated this bit at the ending:

Why do people still feel compelled to argue about the Everest 1996 tragedy nearly 30 years after the event? Because, as Krakauer writes, this disaster was “the result of multiple, complex, interrelated factors,” and because many key facts can never be established, as the witnesses to them died on the mountain. At our worst, human beings rebel against such situations. We want to believe that clear-cut blame can be determined because it brings the terrifying forces that sometimes crush us under our control. Also, as the internet demonstrates over and over again, we just love picking a villain, then doubling down on the choice until we’ve transformed them into an absurd caricature of wickedness. Whatever need this impulse serves, it’s never a desire to know the truth.

This way of thinking/behaving that humans so often do has long super bothered me. They cope with complicated situations by coming up with their own version of ‘reality’ that’s simpler for them, that they could have had some control over, rather than accepting the unfair clusterfuck that is life. I have family members who are very prone to this and it weighs heavily on me…and makes me so sad.

Banned! No acronyms, buddy!

Me neither. Don’t you find that suspicious?? What else are they hiding from us!? Do they think we’re stupid???

I dont recall having heard of this term yet; although of course I’ve heard of what it refers to happening. Thank you for sharing this here!

I am so sorry. You deserve so much fucking better, dammit!! Fuck that jackass. I hope they get what they deserve somehow. I hope you do, too. 🫂💖

I hadn’t yet heard of Accrescent. Here’s a link to their website for anyone interested:

https://accrescent.app/

A novel Android app store focused on security, privacy, and usability. Currently in alpha.

Thank you for sharing this with us here. It was installed on my phone, too; I had no idea until I checked for it due to this article. I’ll have to let my mom know, too. I appreciate ya!

I’m sort of surprised it was installed on such an old, cheap phone on an older version of Android that hasn’t gotten updates in years. I don’t usually get any kind of updates like this (to my knowledge.) Bleh. I wish I had the resources to just use GrapheneOS or similar!

This breaks my heart! The poor developer. That was a super cool idea. Sometimes I hate people…

Most definitely. I can’t even imagine. It’s gotta be hellish.

Seconded! A list of sources that are considered valid for this community would be extremely helpful.
