You can always talk to trees though. You need the fungi to hear what the trees are saying.

Haha, sometimes Lemmy’s ‘nothing to see here’ is prescient.

I would also like to know how you did that because as far as I’m aware Fairphone is not supported.

All those negative things are happening in a society that implemented mass surveillance so clearly it doesn’t help. Recording a crime doesn’t prevent it and if there’s no incentive or funding to make sure justice is served afterwards the recording is useless. I think you’re mistaken in who this surveillance is for: it doesn’t exist to improve your life but to empower corporations and state against you.

You’re right, that works sometimes, until manufacturers get wise and just charge the quality price for a piece of shit. For one-off, niche market things the majority of consumers has no way of knowing which one is a quality product that will do it’s job for a long time and will fail gracefully, and which one is a dangerous time bomb. By the time you find out the money has already paid for some executive’s third gold bath tub.

This phone looks like a bad bargain because all the other ones use what amounts to slavery for their production. I would say this is the actual approximation of a fair market price and all the other manufacturers are cheating.

Cool flip tho

That’s the idea. State actors can keep this up for decades while we the people end up exhausted. Stay vigilant, brother.

Things are looking up!

This really needs a beat, I can hear the Euro banger in my head

No, it’d be more useful just on account of the harm they are not doing. I don’t give a rat’s ass what they do instead, hell, do a huge UBI experiment and just let them chill. Might as well.

Agreed. I’d rather they be paid that wage NOT to bother me.

Why bother with X? Just do l33t CLI h4xx0rs

No issues here, I use it for banking almost daily.

You could clean one very specific part of you for a few minutes with some nature documentaries playing in the background is what they’re saying.

I recently ordered a display and a battery for my Fairphone 4. Replacement took me about 10 minutes. She’s still humming on /e/OS!

The MBA shitstorm continues.

My speaking consciousness says there isn’t.
