Oh sorry, I forgot to mention I’m basically working 6-7 days a week. It’s a Union construction job, won’t have much time.

OP said this:

But it’s vitally important for the overall health of the relationship to not have sexual intimacy for at minimum 6 months, and ideally at least longer than a year

A year is way too long for me. I would at least give it a month bare minimum.

I’m 22, and believe it or not, I actually lost 120lbs over the course of 8 years. I have a whole spreadsheet dedicated to my meals which shows me everything (Calories, fats, mono/poly, sodium, fiber, etc.) I try my very best to make sure I’m healthy, tracking everything down to the gram.

Right now, I’m averaging about 2000mg sodium a day, and the seafood also provides a sufficient amount of Iodine too.

Thank you for showing concern at least haha, you’re right that people need to build these habits early on.

Yes.

I usually wait until the 4th date to consider getting intimate with someone. Go to a resturaunt for your 4th date. I would personally hold off intimacy till then, but hey, if it happens then it happens, just focus on having a good time together until the moment feels right.

The connection stems from my belief that we shouldn’t be prioritizing entertainment over freedom. It’s about giving up your gaming PC for an older Libreboot board instead, solely for freedom not convenience.

You can join the free world my friend, and this is the way.

Lol, I’m pretty sure I found your Dread account too, weren’t that hard to find 😂

You’re completely disregarding the fact that they could possibly implement a malicious firmware update/supply-chain attack. Saying Apple is not capable of hacking their own systems is such a ridicoulously unbelievable statement.

Oh, so we’re going straight to insults because your ego got hurt? That’s cute.

Now explain to me this, how could I possibly show you one shred of evidence if their systems are proprietary? Oh right, I can’t because they don’t provide the source code to nearly any of their software.

See how this works?

Why not?

Saying Apple “can’t” put a backdoor into their own devices is an absolute claim, they’re the ones who control the software, so it’s possible in principle. Business incentives and bug bounties reduce the risks sure, but they don’t eliminate the pressure or legal mechanisms major governments can apply. Snowden’s documents showed that governments have methods to compel or exploit access, and implementation flaws or covert agreements can defeat cryptography in practice.

I do have a solid foundation in how these systems work. You should read the GNU Manifesto and learn about Free Software, it explains why blind confidence in a completely proprietary stack is to remain untrusted. No one should be this certain a proprietary system will always respect users rights.

Do you really trust these proprietary systems to do what they say they’re doing? Sure, the key may be stored locally, but an OS backdoor or compromise could still exfiltrate it, giving users a false sense of security.

project gets ripped up and thrown in the trash

I fixed it lol

That would be interesting. Maybe a separate ISO could be created for someone like you. The only issue with using OpenBSD instead of Linux is that OpenBSD’s network stack is much different from Linux’s, which could potentially worsen your anonymity because so few people use OpenBSD. For now, I would at least try to provide optional non‑systemd Debian templates with OpenRC or runit. I do love the minimilist setup though, your other ideas are definitely noted.

Pearl clutching to the max rn lol

Lol, you sound like an incel

I wish their Android version didn’t require Google Play Services. Real bummer.

Regardless, the app is proprietary. You shouldn’t trust it.

Well, just uploaded a photo of someone else now it says this…

What a lame comic… 🫢
