Why not?

  1. By buying a Pixel phone and degoogling it, you are rewarding good behaviour and punishing bad behaviour, corporations need to be trained like dogs.
  2. Google is not going anywhere and their primary objective is profit. By buying a Pixel you are signaling to them a viable revenue stream that doesn't violate people's privacy.
  3. You don't even need to give money to google directly, you can buy a second hand-one.

I say, vote with your wallet.

Telegram does have E2EE chats (called Secret Chats), though they are only one-on-one, not enabled by default and their encryption is dubious.

AFAIK OpenStreetMap itself doesn't have live traffic info, and I do not know of any client that has it, sorry :(

OpenStreetMap, and the various clients for it. I personally am a big fan of Organic Maps, fast, responsive and clean. If you happen to be on iOS, I hear Apple Maps is also not as bad as Google, though also not open source.

Yes, it's from there.

A picture of a man jumping into a lake as his friends look on, with overlaid text saying, "There is a correlation between intelligence and low impulse control".

More like Ubuntu is to Debian what Manjaro is to Arch. And then Linux Mint takes the nice stuff from Ubuntu but does away with the bullshit.

What he meant is that people are unhappy when he asks about non-voters, and also when he asks about voters. He can't win [the approval of people on Lemmy]. Also, not all leftists are marxists.

 

An illustration, in early twentieth-century style, of four pairs of legs dressed in marching band attire, with exposed buttocks. Torsos are absent, and upon the bottoms are placed marching band hats. Between each pair of buttocks is inserted a brass instrument. On the bottom of the image is a caption in cursive print. The caption reads, "The ass band will play a song of farts to celebrate your failure."

Shadow the Hedgehog, dressed as a toddler, asks, "When will the baby come, mommy?". Spongebob Square Pants, blushing, wearing a night gown and with a bulging belly, responds, " Soon, sweetheart". Shrek, towering behind them, happily looks down upon Spongebob.
