totally. I recently read a book i was supposed to have read in school, and really liked it. I probably would have liked it at that age, but couldnt really sit through it.

Theres something about homework that can make anything insufferable.

I believe its not so much about the quality of the movie. Shitty stuff often manages to catch our attentions. The kind of media we consume shapes the hooks that get our attention. If my habits are different from yours, what hooks my attention might not hook yours, and vice versa.

They are both stupid and dishonest

During the pandemic, bolsonaro was catering to antivax and his whole family was pretending they werent getting vaccinated. But a leaked facebook post by his sons wife showed her mocking antivaxers, saying she was vaccinating her daughter… Theyre just playing the roles they were assigned to in public.

Use the first version with personal relationships. Dont let paranoia ruin your social circle.

With politics, assume the worst.

Telegram doesnt even pretend to be end to end encrypted.

Doctors can be so frustrating…

Oh, I’ll try it, thanks!

Uhh, 100 uses 3 digits.

Its already invaded by the us curently. What else do you got?

Not quite. The us has strength, yes, but not to that point. Its strength is sufficient for some things, but it cant do everything it wants. The us cant even do whatever it wants internally… Look at venezuela, even after trump stated that venezuelan oil belonged to the us and was stolen by the chavist administrations, what is the us doing right now concretely?

Wont even take off

When using brave i would often get those captchas where you have to click on traffic lights on endless pages and more pages of pictures. I guess google tries to get those pennies back from you in this way when it detects braves adblocking. Now ive been on firefox+ublock and i dont get those infinite captchas nearly as often.

I tried floorp a while ago, but it felt a bit too clumsy and unstable. Has it gotten any better?

I guess you could make a feature request in the mastodon project page. Or, on mobile, try a different app, each app implements a different set of features.

What does apple have to do with brave? i dont get it

It helps decide how much to actually save, and how much you can spend immediatly.
