First of all I just want to say that I completely agree with all of the technical things you talked about in his question but I think you kind of miss his question.

OP doesn’t wanna be on SS7 (the thing that gives you your phone number), neither do I. I’ve just come to the conclusion that when it comes to infrastructure and paying for your goods SS7 is the only realistic option I have.

There is no distributed communication network anyone can just connect to. And the dream of leaving WiFi access points open for free (or for some kinda crypto-pay, e.g SkyNet) is just a dream, individuals have to invest in it and nobody wants to or take responsibility for it.

Here are some rules:

1. Somebody* has to build the radios and computers that our phones connect to and has to build them all over the world (*doesn’t have to be an individual, could be a company or government)
2. You gotta pay to use it (whether it’s with a billing account where they have your full name and house address, or crypto)
3. It’s gotta be the easiest option

If we can come with a solution that fits these rules we can do away with the SS7 cellular protocol and have a truly anonymous network.

I have no fear of implementing anything I’m asked to in typescript go rust java c# f# or nix… They’re all the same tool just kinda different in some places.

Nix and home-manager, those are the only 2 I have off the top of my head.

Same tbh idk if it’s the community or the app for me

Discreet math, Calculus, and Physics change the way I think about code

Ned mor branrot plz

Forget neovim, try using ED

Id pay to watch that

Termux

Convention over configuration feels like such a fight when I’m trying to configure something

Aren’t some wolves also persistent hunters?

Guys how often do you think the US sells guns to terrorists to try to gain some intel about them?

I entirely disagree, Go has some of the most straightforward and meaningful syntax I’ve ever used.

Yeah I remember that app! I tried looking for it just now but I cannot for the life of me recognize it. I went through the list of every app I’ve installed and found this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.urbandroid.sleep. I hope its right.

None of y’all understand the absence… I didn’t enjoy wasting my time

Haven’t even played video games

That’s the problem, gotta wake up better.

I got like 3 projects I can working on, one bass I haven’t picked up in like 4 days, courses I paid to take online, friends to talk to, my grandmother to talk to, (today was cold so ¯_(ツ)_/¯), and I’ve DONE NOTHING!!!

You forgot to declare custom primitive types. You cannot create a bool you gotta declare a DoubleYouDoubleYouDoubleYouDotLemmyGradDotML_Bool

Wait isn’t that exactly what a mortgage is?

So (feelings opinions)

It sounds like owners are taking on a whole lot of risk just so the banks don’t. If that’s the case then is the equity actually good enough to merit me being the banks money armor?

And 80% agree with the equity argument, I just can’t help not have hope for the future and am literally asking who is gonna buy my house in 40 years? Less kids are being born, this country is falling into Republican hands so can’t rely on selling my house to immigrants now can I?

I feel like Americans have known why we’re here for so long and now this generation doesn’t. I can’t tell if it’s for a reason someone is keeping secret or if the answer doesn’t exist bc we’re not supposed to be here anymore.
