I think severe rent control would go a long way to solving the problem here in the UK.
Make it unprofitable to exploit the fundamental need for shelter. It would allow people to build up savings and have more disposable income, so they can compete properly in the market.
It would lift up the people at the bottom at the same time as curtailing those at the top = less inequality.
It's not like millionaires can take all the houses with them if decide to leave the country.
I made some biochar once and it occurred to me that I probably released more carbon dioxide heating the up the biomass than I locked up in the resulting biochar.
What is a realistic solution to this?
Nice! Looks like real pencil - do you use a graphics tablet?
Is Foliate available for android?
My advice is to spend more time out of the house! The more I stew in the epicentre of the entropy and problems the more overwhelmed I feel by them and the harder it is to tackle them. Getting out can help to get some perspective and make you appreciate what you do have.
Nice, I will have a look 👍
That feeling has been reflected in recent polls here in the UK too and I think the US might be finally blowing it with its 'allies'.
I hope that the Trump administration can get all its core industries up and running because there is a big sense that the US empire is on its way out now. It was always bound to happen eventually because it always does but I was not expecting to see it unravel so fast and so soon.
Perhaps the US population can resolve (or dissolve) its internal divisions and conflict but I think it will take years and Europe has urgent problems that need tackling right away.
There are probably lists you can search online but I find that adding /feed or /rss to the URL of a page I want to see updates from does the trick. There is also at least one Firefox add-on that indicates if a page has an RSS feed.
No doubt the hipocrisy of relaxing copyright enforcement for AI while doing this will go unnoticed.
It's not on your list but I've had a Mailfence email for the last couple of years and they've been solid.
You could also use YUNOhost to host your own on a VPS. I had no experience before setting mine up and it was fine. Unlimited email accounts and aliases out of the box, plus you can host other stuff besides, like a website, file server or even a fediverse instance.
If your distro provides everything you need then I would avoid flatpak. Getting apps to speak to each other is a pain, updates use more data, backups and restores take much longer, they don't perform as well and config files are not necessarily where you expect them to be.
I have Debian Stable on an older laptop and only install apps as flatpaks if they are not available otherwise. I also have a very new laptop with Fedora on it (because it needs a newer kernel) and have had to install more flatpaks just to make things work properly, because they include their dependencies, codecs etc which are missing in Fedora. Appimages seem to do this too and I find them preferable to flatpak because they integrate more predictably with my system. Apps are slower to launch though and have to be manually updated.
Like you, I'd prefer to just have a package manager and a single source of software and plan to go back to Debian when my newer machine is supported by it.
How I imagine life without a vasectomy must be like
Vasectomy < Having kids < Having no family in old age.
I don't know but Russia seems to be getting what it wants from Trump, right now at least. The US is way less stable than Russia at the moment though and may flip again after he is out.
I think Putin is gambling that a division between Europe and the US will give him more power, comparatively. China are probably into that idea too. Europe's GDP is 1.5 times bigger than China's and 14 times bigger than Russia's though. If Europe decides to tool up, which it's saying it will then the best case scenario for Russia is that the US gets to go off and hang out with other nutcases like North Korea, Haiti and Burkina Faso and the worst case is that Russia ends up with a lot of very big new guns aimed at it by twitchy and paranoid neighbours who have a newfound passion for distracting from their economic and social failures by talking tough and finding bogeymen.
Do you mean the inconsistent cursor size across applications? I have this on a fresh Fedora install and it's a bad look.
Reducing dependence on crackpot America is good in my book, as long as we're not going to just spend that budget with them anyway.
But for gods sake get rid of the tax exemption on wealth to pay for it instead of cutting things that people actually need.
As a European I am grateful to Donald Trump for giving us the much needed kick up the backside to finally ditch the US. It's an odd move for an empire to willingly give up its vassal states but the opportunity should not be missed by us.
Yes, have updated the post. I would probably be happy with 2 in the case of this application and plugins - do you know how I can launch a gtk application in this way?
Thanks for the link - been down a rabbit hole for the last hour or so! Really interesting. I've never really dealt with crypto but direct transactions look awesome. The fact that it uses open protocols is great too.
Have you released anything on it or are you a listener?
Ok! How has your experience with them, and releasing in general, been?
