I have no idea why but this happens with most people in my family and we can even trace it back to my great grandma.
I think it does come down to listening actively, but also by sharing a sense of openness and vulnerability. When you're honest about yourself with others, they're more likely to be honest with you.
I switched to grapheneos on pixel 9 straight from iPhone. The only reason I have any google stuff on the phone is because of RCS messaging. There is literally nothing I have any issues with on this phone, software or hardware. It has been a very smooth and comfortable transition. I very much recommend giving it a try. I think you'd be surprised how little google (exclusively) gives, compared to how much they take.
Damnnnnnn I love Lemmy
Home gonna fuck a sheep
4D Chess move: wanna stop immigration into your country? Make your country so shitty and unlivable that it's not worth visiting let alone moving to
I hate to admit it, but somehow Ben Shapiro was right. He wrote about this in his terrible, awful, no good, very bad book True Allegiance. Although the reason why that invasion started was due to border crossings. And it wasn't started by the president but by the governor of Texas.
The book is awful but I recommend listening to Behind the Bastards' (a podcast) reading of it because it is enlightening.
You make a compelling argument I hadn't considered. I will, however, counter by saying we should have a Kaiser instead.
I really hope this is able to set a precedent. Would be great to not inflict this guy on people.
We're a small nonprofit, so we usually just go with whatever is cheap and works most of the time. We don't have many issues with it, so I don't think its on the list of things to fix.
I use Linux at home but my work computer uses windows. Work just bought me a new laptop with windows 11 pre-installed and I got ads to upgrade to a new "AI capable computer" on the login screen. This computer is maybe 3 months old and there are already ads telling me I need to get a new one.
I started on mint a couple months ago and so far I've tried as many distros as I could find. I liked manjaro but then found out about their controversies so I'm currently on endeavour os. Half of the fun for me has been experimenting with different desktops and whatnot, which has gotten me back into computer stuff.
Thank you for the reaction image and good luck with knowing too much about the people around you
