    1. Not all English speakers are from the “west”, since it’s a lingua franca.

    2. You literally put in that the only option in developed countries is factory farmed meat, which is also not true. There’s even European countries where the factory farming of the USA isn’t allowed, and plenty of developing countries where it’s encouraged.

    3. you imply by saying only developed countries have this option, as if developing countries don’t, and for some reason bring up fucking scavanging as one of developing countries alternatives? Really? You think that lowly of them that just classic old ranching didn’t come to your mind??? The fuck dude. You just pulled a “those kids in Africa” or “the doctor is the male nurse” moment even if you didn’t mean to. You clearly haven’t traveled much.

    4. we were talking about chickens not beef.












  • Now I’m wondering if I should switch or wait to see if he’s ousted.

    On the one hand, and least it’s a Swiss non-profit organization now that’s open sourced on the code.

    On the other hand, the CEO support JD Fucking Vance and now none of the data feels secure despite what they say about their tech.

    The most charitable interpretation is that he’s pulling an “enemy of my enemy is my friend” move, but considering Proton AG is located in Switzerland, and not the USA, that would be a profoundly stupid move since Big Tech doesn’t have the same influence in Switzerland as it does in the USA.

    The crypto shit was already making me wary in the first place too, though knowing Proton’s previous financial difficulties I kinda understood why they might make a paranoid decision to have a crypto back up.

    At this rate, I’m really gonna have to host my own server, aren’t I?

    I think instead I’ll wait and see if they sack him as CEO. I’ll give them 3 months to respond and decide while I start backing everything up for migration.

    Currently I’m working on a Plasma Bigscreen build that still gives some privacy and 1080p Netflix/Disney+/Crunchyroll etc by using extensions/WebApps and getting S-Tube and other android apps (including tv web browser) via Waydroid + Flauncher, all controllable through a simple IR controller.

    If you pm me I’ll set it as a reminder for when I finish to share the package. It’s designed for an Odroid C4.

    As for dumb tvs or more privacy friendly tvs, you can find them if you know where to look. Here’s some options from LG:

    They had a dumb 65" 4k OLED too but it’s currently out of stock.
