Eu tenho preguiça de tirar foto video etc, então só vou relatar que eu ainda uso um notebook Toshiba de 2006 com Linux Mint XFCE, tendo só maximizado a memória RAM para opulentos 3 Gb e colocado um SSD de 500Gb. Serve para estudos comuns, ler PDFs de apostilas e escrever textos (obsidian e libreoffice), navegar na internet surpreendentemente bem (vendo aula e youtube, mesmo que prefira colocar em 720p para rodar liso sempre) e páginas normais no firefox (mas nunca mais de 5 abas por vez pra garantir). E usando Ublock Origin + LibRedirect (instâncias alternativas livres de sites comerciais (como invidious pra youtube) para minimar o rastreamento e anúncios, e que de quebra tornam a navegação muito mais leve e rápida também).

If you want to support the author, there is always the option to pirate the book, and see if he or she has pages to receive donations (paypal, bitcoin, patreon, etc) or you can just email then money.

I'm sure in the near future there will be a niche in Israeli cinema and journalism with movies and videos telling sad stories about the suffering of israeli soldiers while in service and their lifes afterwards, and with nothing to say about palestinians.

you can just create different emails for different uses bro. I keep a official email for important stuff, and several emails for newsletters and others (which i don't care to look through, its just a magazine).

Wish at least Lemmy and Mastodon (the whole fediverse) were possible to see in Gemini browsers at least (i'm using Lagrange in case anyone wants to try), we are already immune to the technical and commercial obstacles of mainstream web, and are just text and image.

There is also Gnome Web (ex Epyphany), a browser that also uses the Webkit engine (as far as i know it's the only 'clone' of Safari cause of this). It's made for Linux (and Unix in general), though i heard somewhere they will make a windows version too. So we can broaden the choice to Chromium, Firefox or Safari.

According to the Safari (web browser) wikipedia article: «Between 2007 and 2012, Apple maintained a Windows version, but abandoned it due to low market share», so yes.

Well, they actually can, but it is not magic, it might not work everywhere, but it indeed involves going against website demands. There is reader view in firefox (that parses a page and gives text and images), there's ublock-origin that alone blocks so much adds and tracking that webpages load faster, there is ''i dont care about cookies'' (that automatically selects the cookie options on your chosen option), etc, stuff that could be implemented in the browser as options for the user just like privacy settings.

At the very least, the Porajmos (aka gypsy holocaust) should be considered and taught alongside the holocaust. No one talks about it, and it was the exact same people with the exact same methods doing it, and the average person of that group is having more troubles than average jews in europe now.

But i disagree, having more industry and organisation is just a matter of a particular technological and economic stage, and someone can nitpick the degrees of ''technology'' or ''organisation'' being considered relevant to qualify.

Then why do they want app notifications ? It's even worse than email, all those red squares with numbers and sounds drive me insane, and i can not keep a particular piece of content with me for later re-reading (like i can archive an email). If people just unsubscribe from emails they do not want to receive, and spam those that keep invading, the mail box will be functional in no time, and people can also just create a 2nd email and download a 2nd email app for hobbys and news (several have a gmail and a hotmail at least).

The people here already spoke of the option of medical tourism, can't you look up that ? A colonoscopy is not some advanced tech, any decent hospital in latin america will be able to do that. Since you earn US dollars, you could research about making a trip to Mexico (possibly the cheapest option, because it can be done by bus or car), Cuba (possibly the cheapest too, because of the conversion rate and short plane distance), Brazil, etc for the travel, lodging and procedure (and even a little tourism too if you have the time and will XD ).

Populismo barato e submissão ao Twitter. Os atletas dos EUA pagarão impostos, incluindo o francês e o norteamericano. Se querem menos distorção, apoiem e demandem uma reforma tributária geral, em vez de criar mais uma isenção especial. De privilégio em privilégio pequeno é que construímos nossa quimera fiscal.
