I know the librem exists, but I donāt think it has much support with respect to Apps. I need some kind of balance between privacy and usability, if that exists. Pine phone??

The right to be online should be coupled with a right to be offline.

There has been a fight for the right to be online (in part to push for Internet in rural America & for the poor). Superficially that's fair, but the problem is govs already operate with the assumption that people are online. So people are being forced to use & trust svcs from dubious gov-admin'd sites (e.g. #Cloudflare). How can I opt out? Now we need a right to be *offline*.

It's over 2 decades old, but I love playing the original Half-Life
Just received my laptop from @tuxedocomputers - looking forward to opening it!

@kravietz and I assume this rice doesnāt take up more resources than regular varieties so I guess the sustainability part is outout
@kravietz was their argument against GMOs or sustainable farming? Is there something about Golden rice that isnāt sustainable?
