Kerala has been using FOSS for a long time now. It's a good step. In Kerala computer literacy centres actually teach Linux so hopefully this increase Linux usage in education sector as well.

I didn't even think about this lol.

This is indeed a very important feature. It needs to take into account that if similar name community exists on another server how the merger would proceed as well in terms of exporting and importing cache of posts and comments.

But generally it should be easier to transfer from one instance to other.

Elections are around the corner.

Word. All this China is a big brother fails account for the fact that most states today are big brothers. It's only a matter of degree.

I just went with sh.itjust.works cuz the name was good and they were into piracy. Sounded reasonable.

Crown is progressive?

Only tablet I ever bought was a nexus 7 back in the day when phones were smaller. I don't think I'd buy a tablet ever again. For reading fiction I still prefer e ink stuff like kindle. For everyday phone is fine now. And well for everything else a laptop does it's work. My tablet has been lying around for years without being used. The form factor doesn't seem very conducive to me for anything. Also watching movies is simply easier on a laptop cuz I don't have to think about holding up or balancing the screen.

You can always treat stuff as science fiction and enjoy regardless. What's the harm!

I read the post title and wondered which community it was and it was called usa so I just continued scrolling.

The I thought I should leave a trace of this experience nonetheless so here it was.

4chan is that and more. Its still a mildly entertaining place if you stay away from political boards.

That isn't entirely true. Transitioning is very recent idea. Being trans and transitioning is also intimately tied to pharma capital complex.

There were many ways of being queer and trans which have been erased over time. Simply consider the native American stuff and also Indian motions of hijra.

Though not this precise point a good text to read : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Testo_Junkie

You put it well. Thank you for that clarification.

Just got it! Really happy that the developer made it. For some reason boost on reddit still works though.

It was nice to switch over to my preferred view that I have been using for years now.

Pretty common trope. Check the Indian English poet Kamala Das for comparison.

Yes. Not against modern medicine. While you are at it please also look into the pharma complex which oversells modern medicine.

Machine Girl and Tokyo Gore Police did it to me in a good way.

Damn! A few days ago there was only jeroba. So many now! I really liked wefwef.

Am looking forward to the boost port. That will do it for me.

Shit! I'm perpetually tuned into this show it seems.

There is no analogical reasoning between germ theory and psychiatry. Psychiatry chooses to individualize a problem in however coded manners at the expense of the social. I am honestly quite astounded by the response that transitioning is the only way to be trans nowadays. This echoes the overall codification of queer behaviour the world over where the normative western queer body language now dominated. If you don't behave or are like them you are not queer.

Mind you I love pocket casts but I always have had the need to install another podcast app such as Google podcasts, castbox or fountain to have a search that works beyond the show name at the level of episode names.

Sometimes I love listening to various podcasts about a topic or I'm just curious and use it like an user uses youtube search.

When not rooted I have two main free solutions.

You can use nextdns on your home network. They have around 200,000k free requests. For 2 people it seems to work out to around 20 days of ad blocks. This particularly helps with the ads on the TV as well.

Otherwise you have the options to use Firefox with extensions or Brave without (I know it's not popular around here). You can also use ReVanced for youtube blocks.

For most usage that free combination suffices for me.

Used in small doses to generate text with some degree of precision is helpful. I do find it to be a good way to cut out boring email writing. But I would recommend it more as a text generation tool than a fact generation tool. With the right expectations and work flow it fits right in. And no I don't consider it plagiarism if the client's demand is boring.

Damn this meme is way up there!

Again depression is a modern conception which is a symptom of a society that has erased notions such as melancholia and mourning.

The point is that these new ideas pretend that they are all neutral and they have arrived at the truth. In the process the constitue their own subjects who are interpellated in these frames. The people who believe and fall for this new discourses are produced by these new technological and scientific advances. It isn't a truth waiting to be grasped out there.

The point is that alternative routes of making meaning of these phenonemon have been erased and other alternative pathways are blocked by suggesting that this is it.

Not a supporter of the war but just noticed that western media is covering this with a sprinkling of their own propaganda. Just read telegraph's piece on this. They seem to think that nato's expansion is normal and just fine. And they also seem to call the presence of Nazi groups in Ukraine Russian propaganda.

There is clear propaganda war going on on both sides. Anti nato doesn't neccesarily mean pro russia. A lot of western people don't seem to be able to wrap their heads around this.
