Does it work the other way? Can I follow Threads users without being on threads.net myself?

Coincidentally, that’s what using it is like, too. :)
I won’t say I didn’t have a bit of schadenfreude when Fort McMurray burned.
I agree, but to some degree, people own their government, and this government is, more than many, responsible for much of the causes of climate change.
I’d say the same thing if Florida sinks into the sea, or South Texas and Louisiana are swamped, or north Alberta catches fire.
Apropos of nothing, Saudi Arabia is the definition of a petro-state.
Chickens. Coming home. Roosting. Etc.
Doesn’t Mint use native packages where Ubuntu is snap-happy?
When you say that the keyboard works: do the brightnesss, mute and volume controls do what they’re supposed to do?
HP laptops–at least business-grade ones–are notorious for sending nonstandard scan codes and requiring custom drivers.
More like seventy five cents, given Google’s profit margins.
Pirate an old, pre-CC version.
That’s what I do. Admittedly it’s Photoshop 3.0 on a Mac Quadra.
There’s one notice, and it’s in the System Settings app. And it’s a little red dot beside the iCloud section. That’s not really the same league as what Microsoft is doing, or Even Google’s nag to use Chrome across all their Web properties.
You’re right about the first-party apps that you can’t remove, but it’s also not the same as, eg, Edge where those apps are used constantly and your preferences are reset on every update.
On my Mac I set my browser to Firefox in 2018. It’s never reverted to Safari, not once, where Windows really wants me to use Edge and goes so far as to not just reset it periodically, but also direct start menu searches and in-app web links to an ms-edge: url instead of using the http handler.
Apple has problems, but this isn’t one of them.
Microsoft would like to introduce you to EntraID.
That’s the enterprise version of this.
Apple doesn’t actually make it at all difficult to use a Mac or iOS device without an Apple account. You’re asked once during setup and that’s it. At most there’ll be a red dot in Settings>iCloud.
I mean, other than Exxon, Shell or BP.
And the Knesset.
And Putin.
But other than that!
Getting quasi-military far-right citizens to do your dirty work? Where have we see that before?
Just get them all matching brown shirts and be done with it.
This is rather like cattle protesting for faster processing times at the abbatoir.
Canada is basically strip-mining south Asian students for every cent of value as a way to avoid making hard political decisions about taxing the rich.
This is what happens when your platform prioritizes engagement over everything else, including people’s lives.
Australians are basically US americans of the south (think food: originally british, cannot be healthy, no good car manufacturers, afraid of foreigners…)
They’re really more like Canadians than Americans, although I’ve heard it said that New Zealand more accurately fills that role
The market has solved it.
You just don’t realize what the market has solved for. It didn’t solve the problem of expensive healthcare, it solved the problem of how to maximize profits for the wealthy.
That’s what people don’t understand about “the market”. What you think it’s doing isn’t what it’s actually doing.
