@Bonehead Luke 1:38 “'I am the Lord’s servant, Mary answered. ‘May your word to me be fulfilled.’ Then the angel left her.” / Luke 1:46-48 “And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed,”

Does not sound like she didn’t know what was going on, or that she didn’t consent…

@aeronmelon I hear it consistently praised as one of the best things in Chromebooks.

@YoorWeb Thank you for sharing the links! I was very unaware of this.

@fishos

Thank you so much for your kindness!

@fishos It is emphatically not common knowledge. I’m reading everyone asserting that such and such governments have backdoors on phones or whatever device, but you’re the first person to cite an example. If you have more, I would appreciate you sharing those.

Might I ask where you buy from? I’d like to make the switch, but since I live in another country and get my items here through courier, getting everything I need in one or two packages is significantly cheaper for me.

Freakonomics Radio did a pretty great interview with him. It’s enlightening.

I’ve used SMS exactly 3 times in my life, all 10+ years ago. My phone plan doesn’t even include SMS anymore. It boggles my mind that people use SMS in the US, and I mean that seriously.

If you live in most of Europe or definitely Latin America, yeah, it is so popular it’s kind of inconceivable not to use it, or at least hard to imagine. I genuinely don’t understand how people in the US communicate.

I met my favorite group in Jamendo 10 years ago. Good, good times.
