If we're talking about standard LineageOS, without gapps, it will lack basic tools that some apps need to function. If you want Lineage without gapps, your best bet is LineageOS for MicroG which replaces various Google backend components with free alternatives.

/e/OS does this by default, and what also mainly sets e apart is that it also includes various Nextcloud-based cloud services as alternatives to Google's cloud services. If you don't want e, these tools can still all be setup yourself, though with less convenience.

Personally I did not have a good experience on /e/OS. But I'm not so sure that was a fault of the system itself. At the time I was using a Teracube 2e, which didn't have a good user experience to begin with.

If you have a compatible device, I've found Iode to also be nice. Any of these options would be much better than stock Google malware.

Recently finished one playthrough of Torchlight 2, so now I went back and am doing a playthrough of Torchlight 1.

Just as a sidenote, tempeh is actually a whole food. It's whole beans, fermented, which has the added benefits of making the beans more digestible, and reducing bloating.

You do you. Was just sharing some info, I was curious about it as well.

Nonsense right at steps two and three. Signaling to another person that you respect their consent by asking permission on even the small things is hot.

The tl;dr version: It's Tolkien's Bible fanfiction.

Also, if we're going to start shifting blame to capitalism, please tell me how your ideal system of governance would manage to get the current 98-95% of individuals who are consuming harmful and unethical foods to change? Corporations have a lot of blame for the toxic food environment and food deserts to be sure. But also in the case of the food industry, their harmful practices are driven by consumer demand for the most addictive, hyperpalatable foods. Nothing can change without enough individuals choosing to do better.

Umm, no? There would just be more fan projects of other games.

Agreed. Especially with x86 and the cornucopia of retro handhelds coming out all the time. Why would I want to waste money on a product that's going to come out already inferior to the competition, with locked down software experience, from a company that bullies their own fans?

 

Description from video:

"Are your favorite influencers getting rich by spreading misinformation?

Viva Longevity finds great scientists who are too busy doing science to be social media stars, and we help them tell their stories."

 

Hypothetically it would make the concept of "voting with your wallet" a real possibility. The biggest flaw I can see is that records of costs would likely see much more fraud, which would require more monitoring and enforcement.

 

A lot of people accuse vegan communities of being echochambers. There's good reason for vegan communities to be insular, if for no other reason than because there are so few of us.

But I want this to be a space where everyone feels comfortable to ask questions and have discussions. It's my hope to make a space where these contentious issues can be talked about in civil and fair ways.

 

And let everyone sort posts by emoji count.
