  • Yes, this is a tragic and complex way to have averted a mass shooting but that appears to be what happened. After being shot non-critically it appears the shooter lost their nerve, threw their rifle in a bag and tried to run/rejoin the crowd.

    I've been bracing myself for the disgusting politics to hit. Like I can feel right wing pundits hand wringing to show the armed protesters 'have no idea how to handle guns.'

    Adding fuel to the fire, we had a shooting last night at a multicultural festival where three were killed, one being 8 months old.

  • Yeah, I'm afraid it's just the same as lack of concern over digital privacy. I don't want to diminish the bravery but I'm sure a lot of them aren't considering how easy it would be for trump co. to use pictures months down the line to identify protesters.

  • Yeah. The linked Mastodon thread by GrapheneOS mentions them potentially making a phone themselves. I'd love if they partnered with fairphone to build it. Though it sounds like we'd need to accept a higher price than a standard fairphone.

  • I use Aurora store and Fdroid on it. Funny considering direct play store is a selling point of theirs. I mostly use it as an ereader but it's also my work phone since intune doesn't play nice with grapheneos. Being able to fit my ereader in a pocket has been amazing. I rarely leave home without it

  • Nah. I love my palma 2 and can do plenty with it if you accept no cell phone capabilities it's great. I don't see the appeal of a device with worse refresh rate, a keyboard that needlessly eats screen space, and UI that doesn't trust you as a user.

    Edit: I suspect people are reacting without knowing wtf a palma 2 is, lol.

  • Even if they do this, I wouldn't be averse to a less on demand version of youtube. 3rd party apps will let you load a number of videos for later viewing. Would probably help me consume media more responsibly and youtube has to deal with the additional resources needed to serve all the videos I didn't wind up watching after all.

  • I have been banned from Immersed's discord server since I made a single critical comment of their crypto land sale. No warning, just banned for a single message. They cancelled their crypto land system and to their credit refunded the investors. However they have been taking deposits for this new headset for a year + with a delivery date of "2024" which clearly isn't happening. I truly believe they are just horribly mismanaged, naive, and unable to deal with criticism. Scam? Not intentionally, but the outcome may look very similar.
