Everyone should have a separate one for their finances, that they dont give out.

Temple OS user here, I’ve been welcomed as well.

*To buy goods mass produced by a person working in far worse conditions.

This then feeds into the CPI, which now requires higher priced goods via inflation targeting, and suddenly housing is unaffordable and theres a reverse baby boom.

Googles devices have always been able to have custom ROMs, I even had a Nexus 2 long ago and that was moddable.

If you want something to mangle the formating on his Office documents there really is no alternatives available sadly. Chat there is.

Firefox has a VPN. They are also releasing Thundermail.Com soon and will likely have an all in one yearly package.

Sickbeard and dozens of drives is far more complicated.

I pay for an emby share personally.

Plex/emby/jellyfin, there are a ton of paid shares out there that are cheap.

There’s a software called gravitational teleport that looks pretty neat.

Turns beef into beef flavored chicken, I love it.

I switch phone plans every few years, and I have no idea how esims work, so yes.

On account of the cosmic space beams.

There’d thundermail coming out soon, which will probably have mullvad included. This also funds firefox too which is nice.

You should be able to use some form of symmetric encryption on a cloud storage.

You could even do restic backup to a cloud storage like Icedrive.

I still think DOGE is just feeding all that information to Palantir, and everything else is a pretext to that goal. They want an AI embedded directly into the government, making a large dependency on it, and bypassing checks and balances quickly has allowed that to happen.

What tech are we talking about here, theres a billion different pieces of software out there all doing drastically different things.

Well its still early days, Biden was very against Crypto, so point of sales systems couldnt provide it. Companies like Square are now working on it, so you will be able to use it; or any form of cash you want, or fractional shares and gold etf.

Maybe all currencies will just be forced to compete on inflation one day, and everyone will use the one with the lowest annual growth in new supply.

You want just a fatty wad of cash, and for tellers to sit there counting change or what?

Or maybe a CBDC, so they can inflate it even more, giving out your purchasing power like like its a political football?

Do you think credit cards are ideal? People happily pay a 4% fee to Visa to buy something at the store, yet you think a spot convert is going to be the death knell?

As well as the deflation of their currency, as the currency increases at around 10% a year, as you’re praying that a CPI that does hedonic adjustments and substitutions maintains your standard of living; as we go from free range to factory farms, and housing appreciation is excluded entirety.

Maybe it wont be bitcoin, maybe it will be fractional shares, or spot convert gold, but I am definitely waiting for the day when I can hold 0$ in cash. I’m already near 0, but I’d like to replace it entirely.
