Why do you conflate socialism and a lack of democracy? Am I wrong in thinking there can be a democratically elected socialist government?

I may not celebrate Thanksgiving (not American) but I would still like to say thanks to hacker news. I don't remember how long ago I discovered it, but it's been an amazing journey. Let it never end. Thank you to this amazing community.

I try to start from the bottom up. I'm "fortunate" to live in a country where we have a saying - The country doesn't have a mafia, rather the mafia has a country. So I'm pretty used to hearing "we need systemic change, individual action is meaningless". But I just keep telling myself to be the change I want to see and - honestly - I see results. I'm not saying I have changed anything, but the situation feels a bit better. And when it comes to democracy the elected officials are a direct representation of the peoples of the country.

Ironically the whole GDPR mess made it easier for me to use ddg first. I just don't have cookies, so every time I use google I'm greeted with that amazing consent form, so I just stick to ddg unless it's really necessary.

To quote a meme... "por que no los dos?" I have been using DuckDuckGo since I don't even remember how long now - pretty much immediately after I heard of it - what made the "switch" easy was the ability to search google (and a slew of other search engines and websites) from the ddg interface using the bang notation. So I have been mainly using ddg the past few years, but when I'm "sure" I would get more relevant results from Google I just add !g to the query and go look there.

I agree it's not ideal - and this is pretty much just a ddg "ad" - but it's a start. The beauty of free software (free as in beer) is that you can just use it all. Yes - again - not ideal, but it's a start.

Why though? Why is that requirement there? Okay, it's nice for me to sync everything and have a seamlessly integrated ecosystem. But what if I have one device and just want to use Word on it and that's it?

It would just outlaw the easiest way to insure an IoT device is easily controlled and authenticated.

In what ways? I would be inclined to agree on some level, seeing what the state of most social media is, but some examples are always useful.

What are some of the fields where this is changing?

You can set some flags in about:config to make the UI more compact:

browser.proton.enabled to false browser.uidensity to 1

Thank you for this. While searching I also found `browser.uidensity`. Setting it to 1 makes the whole UI more compact, which gives some more vertical pixels for the website window.

Looks more and more like Safari is the "modern" IE

I recently decided to get a Note again for the S-Pen experience, but I keep seeing the ReMarkable mentioned and I'm considering it, but I can't really justify it since I don't actually write that much, I just like the idea of having "electronic paper". What would you say about the device?
