In response to the idiotic and reckless abandon of Trump's tariff trade war, the UK and its people must make strong choices.

Retaliatory tariffs to up the cost of US options versus local and European products.

#UnplugTrump switching from US products and services.

There's plenty of options!

To be fair, their mega projects are mostly silly things. Like the damn wall.

Neat thought experiments, but not really something humanity should spend their time and money building. Oil money gives them too much.

Hiya Team ๐Ÿ‘‹

Time to try out some more alternate products to US made or owned ones...

Karma Cola + Fentimans (UK) instead of my usual Pepsi Max

Georganics toothpaste instead of Colgate. I have tried Zendium and quite liked it, just a bit expensive to get here.

Any ideas for more changes? ๐Ÿค”

Leicester City's Mads Hermansen has been named amongst the best promoted players, and most likely to leave.

Here is everything you need to know, and why the Foxes should not worry ๐Ÿ‘‡

nostr:npub1v5qmjahu03zghudru8yjdueczmee4cza38kxj3w6whqvdzjtn8es4wzdxf are there any chances of having translation built into the app in the future?

The translate feature going to Google translate firstly sometimes does not take the whole post for some reason, and secondly I would prefer to remain in app and not use too many Google services.

Germany is making the right choice here. The UK and France must also seriously boost defence spending and manufacturing.

The UK and EU should make a deal on joint security and intelligence spending and measures. Specifically, the UK must turn all attention to naval production.

nostr:npub1v5qmjahu03zghudru8yjdueczmee4cza38kxj3w6whqvdzjtn8es4wzdxf quick question: is there any chance we could get a cross-post for quote threads?

For example, say OpenVibe takes a screenshot or separates the photos from the text and allows us to quote post a bluesky post on our Mastodon account and vice versa.

Alright! I have finally gotten Threads and Bluesky working on nostr:npub1nwkd0pe6pn7x8tassvrpcs8nleyxpnm7y8g0wqjzcgrwhaucjjvqcrdgjz ๐Ÿ’™

My friends, bringing together all our communities in one federated space is perhaps the best option.

One client to rule them all!

Now the question becomes what to use each of my accounts for.

#EUPolitics #UKPolitics #UnplugTrump

The disgusting comments made in their Signal group chat shows the real attitude that vile administration has towards 'allies'.

Calling Europe freeloaders? To coin a phrase used by Vance: "have you said thank you once?" For our support and dead bodies in the war on terror at the back and call of the US?

No longer. Kick them out the Five Eyes, build a new economic and security partnership with Canada, UK, EU, and international partners.

#USPolitics #UKPolitics #EUPolitics

Again, as so many times before, this cultish Trump-Vance administration illustrates a brazen disregard for allies, a diplomatic ineptitude, an arrogance and ignorance of staggering proportions, and most of all... Stupidity.

This is why we must #UnplugTrump and switch from as many US apps, services, and products as is reasonable for your situation.

If you can delete US accounts, then do so. If you can switch to open source Euro/UK alternatives then do so https://cdn.nostrcheck.me/27c3ffeb76b84552145a8a083345a4efcf45eb7858f659ac3c5667071fd96ac5/4c848bd3861ff55fdcaa873c42768d73509712e191aae6fd4e408d727c9fed6f.webp

What did he say? I find it bewildering to think any reasonable person would target an open-source team working really hard on a hardened and privacy-focused operating system!

Keep up the hard work GrapheneOS team ๐Ÿ’ช

(P.s, please support some older Samsung devices in the futuee so I dont have to buy a Pixel just to use it...)

@jolla@techhub.social could we see some early previews for work on the UI/UX for SailfishOS?

Also, are there any plans to widen support for non-jolla devices? For example, there are a small number of Sony devices supported, but could we see premium Samsung devices in the future?

Just thinking I'd love to try SailfishOS out, but I'd rather pay a fee to download the OS and install it on an older Samsung device I have to try it out before committing to a future Jolla C device.

Some of the accounts on Nostr are a little surreal.

Any tech news and Linux or open source accounts I should follow?

#Linux #OpenSource #Tech

The UK Government must invest heavily into Linux, and supporting the development of a hardened, sandboxed, encrypted, and professional grade #Linux distribution for use across all government agencies.

They should also invest in @jolla@techhub.social in the development of a hardened and privacy focused Linux distribution for mobile devices.

General release across the UK with marketing support from the government is a good idea too.

An expert on all things Leicester City has given their opinion on the Foxes' most likely exits as the prospect of definite relegation comes ever closer to realisation. Here are our thoughts...

Just wanted to shout out nostr:npub1v5qmjahu03zghudru8yjdueczmee4cza38kxj3w6whqvdzjtn8es4wzdxf for creating such a useful application.

Aside from an issue where I cannot get Threads to work, I only have two bits of feedback...

1๏ธโƒฃ When editing feeds, it would be great to choose accounts or tags to follow on that feed across platforms

2๏ธโƒฃ could we get Pixelfed or substack integration?

#LCFC #PremierLeague

Leicester City have struggled in the Premier League this season. Patson Daka is perhaps the clearest example of the potential being wasted or withering into obscurity at the Kind Power.

Here is why he is struggling ๐Ÿ‘‡
