Linux is an option if they get decent emulation going or natives apps that are currently missing.

I severely underestimated how sealed in the smartphone market would become. There are basically 2 options in 2024. Both are evil.

And don't forget, your ancestors were moving around far longer than they were settled...

Move closer to your parents. That'll make you feel more rooted.

All the moving around is bad for the human soul.

Only real nomads are good with being transient because they move around with their entire clan and their homes.

They are far closer to nature, it's nature that is home.

I reckon that's actually part of the goal btw, to destroy the fabric of areas they wish to control ...

I get the whole generational attachment bit, but is it the area or the people & history that you are really attached to? I think you'll find if the population changes & the old landmarks you are used to are destroyed, that attachment will wane significantly.

He isn't wrong that if everyone around you is fucking it, it is time to leave.

Why live behind enemy lines.

There’s a difference between living somewhere, legally or not, and being part of the community. Just moving in doesn’t give you that. My area is going through large scale migration right now. Citizens moving in from 1,000s of miles away. All legal. My family has been in this county for 300 years. Well. It will be 300 years in 2045. I don’t figure to be the one to leave. Even if people are ruining it. I figure that all dries up as the current financial system becomes less and less able to build 1,000 homes at a go and sell them later instead of a few people moving in and building houses as they move. I’ll say it though, when people move into an area and start wanting to raise taxes to pay for more schools and teachers I start to get onboard with not having the vote until you’ve lived in a community for 10-15 years.

That's very sad but I'm still not quite sure what you're telling me

The key tactical point was demonstrating an irrevocable critical mass of resistance which could not be crushed by force. The conflict between us protesters and people like you was driven by the fact that you didn't recognize this core point, overriding everyone's disagreements over political minutiae and bringing us together over the simple fact that we wouldn't allow each previous protest to be broken up by police violence without the next protest having more people and being more of a problem. The only way out was to convict a cop of a murder committed on duty. Otherwise people were going to be exercising their first amendment rights to express dissatisfaction with a police force unilaterally free to commit murder without consequences. Even people who want cops to be murderers should be able to wrap their heads around the fact that free speech forces itself on the world as a result of democracy and the human drive for expression. When you say you disagreed with the tactics without recognizing the core tactic of showing free speech couldn't be prevented, it's like you think free speech only worked because the protesters got lucky and you don't actually agree with the idea that free speech is an emergent property of human nature that you can't stop no matter how you feel about it.

Let's just say they were facing machine guns & tanks again, only this time they had their families besides them.

Then you never heard of their protest and how it ended I'm guessing.

Meant to say WW1 vet but same applies

For years I’m declining giving my phone number after payment

Now some are starting to say I have to give.

Literally have walked out leaving everything in the counter
