The “Sol” name is actually more of a science-fiction, pop-culture thing. It’s just called “the Sun”. “Solar” comes from latin Solaris, meaning “pertaining to the sun”, “sol” itself meaning “sun”.

I don’t correlate much from job count. I have had 5 in the last 8 years, two of those following layoffs. Shit happens.

The dose makes the poison. Hell, some literal hard drugs wouldn’t have lasting effects on you if you only took them once in a while.

Mate, I’m barely lifting myself up certain days, can I get a break from being responsible for others’ self-development, dunno, at least half the days?

Does it really matter? How many Windows users’ usage just launch a browser and use that, aren’t they effectively not “using” Windows per se?

It’s a direct answer to the main post, which mentions two bands, and this one is one of them. I thought the context implied the reference, visibly it didn’t, so I’m sorry for that. No need for the snark.

I mean, she’s from that wave of American-fashioned, modern reactionary conservatism. Of course she’s repeating whatever BS the companies she’s shilling for want her to. Trump made them realize they don’t even have to try telling the truth. They just need to spout enough nonsense to rile up their voter base, and for the part that doesn’t stick, play dumb and say it’s not what they meant (or hell, just never even address it). No need for facts when you can just make up your own…

Modern Canadian conservatives aren’t the tame fiscal conservatives we used to have indeed. This violent steering of the right wing towards social conservatism is worrying as fuck, and should be for anyone but hard traditionalists. It’s insane to see anybody who cares about Canada support Trump in any way with how he fucked us over and over.

How do you define “usable”, and how long did it take X to get to that same point?

The user is describing iOS' share sheet, which Signal seems to advertise as a feature. The OS isn't reaching in and grabbing data, Signal is providing data to the OS.

Also note that said user signaled this on the Signal-Android repo, which combined with their inability to find this info, when i don't even own an iOS device, makes me think they aren't the most observant user out there.
