Fairphone has headphones and earbuds with replaceable batteries. They’re pretty expensive, but show that the big players could easily provide the same level of repairability.

I use wired headphones at my desk, but I really don’t want to go back to wired for when I’m on the go.

Can you point out a nuclear project that was a quick process? How would removing the profit motive make it quicker?

Good luck building enough capacity in nuclear power to do that. Nuclear plants tend to be a lot more expensive and take a lot longer to build than anticipated.

Absolutely. I hope flatpak can take that role. It’s already widely accepted.

I actually had to realize I was depressed first. Therapy helped a lot with my self esteem.

Killing animals is pretty shitty as well though

I was 29 years old when I met my first girlfriend and had my first sex and I regret nothing. I didn’t really realize it at the time, but I wasn’t at all ready at 20 years old.

Okay first of all, a lot more, maybe all Palestinians will be killed under Trump.

Second of all, the Trump regime will completely dismantle the US. They’ve already started. People like you (presumably) didn’t show up to vote democrat for some vague moral win in Palestine that doesn’t have any real world implications. Even if the situation in Palestine were exactly the same under Harris and Trump. Millions of people all over the world will suffer because of Trump’s decisions. Queer people, immigrants, women, poor people are going to fucking die because of Trump.

I sincerely hope you’re right.

I hope America will have democratic elections in four years. But I won’t be surprised if it doesn’t happen.

Trump is a fascist, has both chambers and the supreme Court behind him. At best, it’s going to be a very dark four years for minorities, women and poor people.

I replaced most cloud services with my own Nextcloud instance. I like Nextcloud.

Very edgy. Care to elaborate?

Try a high Bitrate mp3 and the difference becomes a pure technicality.

No, it’s not

There is no “mp3 quality”, as that can vastly vary depending on bitrate. And what is HD quality music supposed to be? I bet you couldn’t reliably differentiate high quality mp3, CD audio and completely uncompressed wav in a series of blind tests.

Yeah. Headphone jacks are essential only for people who own nice wired headphones they want to continue using.

I’m absolutely amazed how they still don’t seem to be able to rid themselves of the old control panel. The new settings menus still lack so many features. They’ve been around for almost 10 years now. What’s going on there?

If it gets catastrophic enough for society to collapse, which is not at all unrealistic, the rich will be just as fucked as the rest of us. They may last a few months more, but they’re fucked without their peasants.

The level design of Half Life 2 is truly amazing. It’s great in a way you don’t even notice because everything just feels so natural.
