They’re dough nuts

Time for a weekend away at Hilbert’s Grand Hotel, methinks.

Honestly I haven’t tried, so that’s possibly on me. But also I don’t want it on there, who knows what that app does, it’s at best suspicious, imho. I have a “dirty” phone with all the big tech stuff on, but at a pinch I can make it go online using my “clean” phone as a tether, but I’m trying to wean off the data harvesting apps like WA, Instagram etc

No, I think they support others too. However I have the Jolla C2:

I’m currently trying to switch to using my Sailfish Phone full time. Unfortunately the way I’m having to do this is by keeping my old android about to run WhatsApp (because I can’t get friends and family onto something that also runs on Sailfish, which is basically Matrix or nothing as far as I can tell). It’s not great tbh, but I really like the idea of Sailfish (or Ubuntu touch).

The Dalvik layer (which runs the Android sandbox) is ok, it runs some stuff but not everything and anything “security dependent”, forget it, so Banking and messaging won’t be supported, that being said the moment I find a bank that supports Sailfish, I will switch to that bank in an instant.

(Ps. If anyone has anything to refute any of my statements here, like a good messaging app or banking, then please correct me, I want to be wrong)

Help! Something sensitive is stuck in a cylinder and I need to get it out…

You’re being a bit hard on yourself. Words (and other things) change over time, misunderstanding things isn’t shameful, only failing to adapt to new information is.

Have a blessed Friday :)

I’m going to assume this question was asked in good faith. Speech is a synonym for expression. The written word is also not technically speech but is very much included in the term “Free Speech”.

It’s not just this, other policies he had were not popular with the New Labour element (which was essentially a lurch to the right, economically), which also helped to sow the discontent and dis-unity in the party during his election campaigns. The Israel thing is just the largest front they all attacked him on so it’s an easy turn to be able to say “well we’re denouncing genocide for one thing”. I suspect a more thorough policy stance will be more forthcoming.

Sadly, I think the UK is too stuck atm, with it’s FPTP and (basically) two party system to be able to get a significant dent in the number of Labour MPs, however a show of support for (what I imagine will be) more social leaning policies might help to drag Labour back to the left a bit.

Goebels filmed Jewish ghettos where they put water in cups with black ink in, to look like coffee, to “show” to the German people that the Jews were being taken care of very well in the ghettos (and later camps).

Plus ça change…

Fair warning I haven’t read this specific article but an MIT prediction has societal collapse happening by 2040

The french used to use an explosive device called a “petard” (old french for a fart), that was used to breach doors. However these would sometimes blow back and kill the user rather than breach the door. This was the original intention for the Shakespearian phrase. One was Hoisted (old verb* not used anymore but essentially blown off their feet) by their own Petard (or door breaching bomb).

More information is here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoist_with_his_own_petard

*Unrelated to hoist as in to lift, despite similarities

Yes agree with this and categorise each into one set of broader goals, I suggest one is Programming, one could be Gaming etc. Then allocate time to each larger goal and order your sub “tickets” in there so you focus on one thing in a section at a time. For example, don’t learn Python and Rust at the same time, focus on one or the other (I’d probably suggest Python first as Rust has a very steep learning curve), but you can easily spend some time a week learning Python and some time learning Factorio, without the two things working against each other.

Edit: for Programming stuff the site Roadmap.sh (https://roadmap.sh/) is useful for giving you an opinionated task list. It’s not for everyone, but if you just want to know where to start you could go a lot further wrong than that.

It might help in the future for trigger warnings as it’s used in those quite often, at least. Every cloud…

“hey baby why don’t we head back to my dry dock”

Took me a while but I’m guessing it’s using their funerals to take personal days as an excuse.

When I was at school (UK) there was a German girl and a Swiss girl talking in German and one of them said “Scheiser” really loudly, the teacher turnes and glared at them and slowly they realised why and had to apologise to the teacher, as they hadn’t really thought that while he couldn’t understand, he still knew the swear words!

Wasn’t a big deal was just funny and everyone laughed (incl teacher), needless to say they were a bit more cautious after that.

I thought so too before moving here, but there’s two cities, and a lot of empty space (in the north in particular) with lots of towns and villages, it’s not like Monaco or the Vatican City in that regard.

That being said, it’s still all very close together, you can drive from the northern most point to the south in about 1.5-2 hours.

The funniest thing I’ve learned about the geography is that there is a North/South divide where people from either don’t trust people from the other.
