This is a solid list, made me realize I need to give Disroot some loot, you’re a boss!

I’ve always donated to Signal, Bitwarden, and KDE. Lemmy got added to the list this year, plus I always try to support a quality project that’s between a rock and a hard place. I gave to the Oregon State University open source lab this year when I heard about their struggles. They’re why Mozilla is a thing along with many other foundational components of the open internet.

Well said!!

The add-on’s are solid. They have an elaborate curated list, plus you can access any of the mobile extentions by just searching for em.

Definitely recommend replacing Fennec with IronFox on mobile, it’s a fork of Mull, so it’ll be a solid privacy upgrade!

Exactly! This is a big reason why all corporate media still endlessly states Hamas killed 1200 Israelis 10/7, while it’s now known Israel used the Hannibal Directive and were responsible for at least a few hundred of the deaths. This was even stated by the man in change of the Israeli military at the time too…

Sure, maybe on paper…but check this out: https://scheerpost.com/2025/02/01/did-a-trump-executive-order-just-cripple-the-global-us-regime-change-network/

Regardless, why is the only aspect of USAID which was “forked” into a Trump approved department specific for coup’s? Makes you think which, with nothing but love, is something it seems you should do more of when it comes to US policy.

The fact USAID is supposed to provide aid to people around world in need of help, yet this aid is just a smoke screen to cover for the funding of coup’s on governments which oppose the US empire…

It’s not just USAID. The BBC is actually funded by two branches of the US government.

Last year, the US State Department gave BBC Media Action £280,000.

The group says it used the $$$ to reach 100 million people in 24 countries with its programmes.

After covering the BBC’s public relations response, the article then goes on to say:

That sounds nice, of course. But when you’re aware of the role USAID has played as the ‘friendly face’ of US imperialism, more scrutiny of BBC Media Action is essential.

What I took away from it is that since the BBC is affiliated with this blatant US corruption, regardless of directly or indirectly, the specifics regarding the association needs to be known by the public.

I’ve been really liking the KISS Launcher, it’s power is in it’s simplicity. It also looks relatively comparable with Smart Launcher. What’s super impressive about the KISS Launcher is that 93% of users that try it for a week are still active users after 3 years! So definitely worth a gander for sure.

You’re server’s #3 when it comes to monthly active users too!

When you sort by monthly active users, this is what you get:

What really jumps out to me is the fact .ml’s active users equals the total users. Not too sure what to make of it. I’d assume the mod’s delete nonactive accounts after a set amount of time or it’s just relatively small based on total users but everyone’s visiting at least once a month.

With the deterioration of our ecosystem, it makes sense lifespans will decrease. But this one seems fishy. At the turn of the century, which preceded the discovery of antibiotics, the average life span was 32. Back then, childbirth was actually dangerous and the amount of kids dying under 3 years old was wild. These were the primary reasons for the 32 year average lifespan. Which means 26 in todays world is almost certainly a sign of fowl play…

I’d say I’m one (1) eldritch scientist + Sat[censored]art

Guess it all comes down to your definition of makeover. In looking up the definition, it’s defined as “a radical change in appearance, it may imply a change in clothing, haircut, or cosmetics”. This being the case, I’d say the title’s spot on. But it all comes down to how you define makeover regarding if the titles misleading. It’s a bit ambiguous, so I see what you’re saying.

I feel it, but at the same time, where does the title imply the statues were damaged? It’s all about grabbing attention in order to bring focus to the disastrous situation we’re in with our environment.

Ya, the house is in the persons name. But if they struggle to keep up with payments, it can become the banks home.

Same with homes, renting can provide lower monthly payments vs a mortgage. But with a mortgage you own the home and eventually you’ll have no monthly payment, whereas renting means you’ll always pay and the landlord has the final say in matters.

Well, the focus of the Israeli attacks were initially in the greater Gaza Strip area, which is in Southern Gaza. So this wouldn’t make much sense to have been posted 6 months back. But being posted now demonstrates the expansion of the Israeli attacks. Nonetheless, I get where you were coming from with it.

On top of that, in the 2010 massive Cholera outbreak, there’s images of UN sewage trucks dumping waste into the local water ways. While it was responsible for an obscene initial death toll, the country still has this Cholera strain actively being spread, confirmed via genetic analysis. In a country with fragile water filtration infrastructure, a severe lack of vaccinations, and a heavy distrust in the local government, this was a perfect storm which the repercussions are still being felt to this day… Stay away from Haiti UN, you’ve already done enough!
