Looking at all the other types of imperialism out there, I kinda don’t feel like the death of Western imperialism will be a good thing. Quite the contrary.
Ce să vă zic, mă, bine ați venit? bine ați venit, rău ați nimerit. La locu’ ăsta îi zice șerpărie, de la șerpii care umblă pe-aicea. Dracu’ știe cum au ajuns…

Effectively Minority Report
@Wolly Salut, și sper că mai ești pe aici 😁 Nu sunt din Constanța, dar există anumiți psihologi care lucrează cu CAS. Poți începe de aici. Există și o hartă a psihologilor publicată de Mental Health Romania unde poți găsi psihologi care oferă gratuitate sau reducere, cel puțin pentru câteva ședințe. Poate te ajută.
Iar ca să găsești un loc de muncă încearcă și la ANOFM.
Personal nu m-am confruntat cu situații așa de grave pe care le descrii aici, însă în ultima parte a timpului pe care l-am petrecut la ai mei certurile și nervii (fie între ei, fie la adresa mea) erau la ordinea zilei. Nu am rezolvat decât plecând de acasă. Am mai ținut legătura cu ei, mi-au plătit și psiholog, dar nu le-am spus nici până astăzi exact unde stau și nici nu i-am chemat la mine. Se pare că lucrul ăsta chiar a avut efect în relația cu ei.


I didn’t even know about that, I thought everyone was affected and I had the Prime version as well, lol. I bought it at some point when it was on a sale - something like the equivalent of 0.something $
you also seem to have been way more on Android than me. My first phone was on Jelly Bean


When Nova Launcher got rogue I decided to dip my toes into some non-Launcher3-based launchers (Launcher3 is basically the default launcher). It is not the only one out there, mind you (Lucid is another one for example), but I found Kvaesitso to be the nicest, especially since it allows you to theme non-themed app icons in the launcher if you’re using the material you ones.
I went in the settings and changed the behavior to open the app drawer in a left swipe. To me it somehow feels more intuitive. Also, I don’t know what I did, but I am able to use the weather widget for my location without installing Breezy (I’m from Romania).


Looks like the vote passed, with only one country voting against it (I guess everybody knows which one). However, it will be up to the member states to implement it anyway.
it’s still a step in the right direction though 👍


Traducere: Știe să sclavagească mai bine


well, the most upvoted thing I saw here was a post of a dude wanting to keep his piss inside for 3 days straight. It’s a striking cultural difference I guess.
Scrap that. It’s literally just a can of fucking beans


Resharing this to my Friendica account. Just to know where do all these non-threadiverse upvotes are coming from. Cheers!


There was another one from back in the day when someone asked for advice on how to get along without taking a piss for 3 days straight. That got something like 1-2k upvotes if I remember correctly.
Guy is called Alex Craiu, and he is a Romanian war correspondent established in Zaporizhzhia since the start of the full invasion in 2022. He collaborates with the publication Veridica.
The guy he is responding to is Florin Mihai Gulbenkian a member of the AUR far-right party, whose leader is barred from entry from both Moldova and Ukraine due to national security reasons.


You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy
The thing I don’t especially like at this approach is that this is restricted to only pixelfed.social. Was Piefed doing the exact same thing? I remember Kbin and now Mbin allows for every instance to use their desired SSO.


You must be running Android 14 or newer which uses the Material You style. There, you have the option to customize the color of your apps based on your wallpaper. You can also use ColorBlendr to select any color you like, independent of your wallpaper colors. It needs either root or Shizuku. If you are rooted you can have a more granular control over the UI elements being themed. If you only use Shizuku, you are more limited. However Shizuku is easier to use.


You’re welcome! And sorry, I expected Friendica to be more known here on the Fediverse 😁
@julian fair 😁


Ordered it in the First batch. They said that the Android App Support is going to be subscription-free for this one, so that’s a plus I guess. Also, calls and texts will be the first for me to try. If they don’t work, then it will be a return.
edit 18.08: ok, so phone arrived a few days ago and calls work, so no return from me (at least now). But there are some odd things that I still need to see how to fix and some odd design decision. I cannot write a full in-depth review about this, but the idea is that - if you have access to a custom ROM for your phone try that instead. Do try this however if you’re curious to check another platform that’s not Android or iOS and it helps you get the job done in 2026. The phone itself is great, I haven’t encountered any lag whatsoever basically, but the system does have some friction and you will miss a bit of stuff even from ungoogled Android (i.e.: widgets). YMMV.


(not) nice 🙁
Rest In Peace! 🕯️


So that’s what authoritarianism looks like, kids
@nataliegiants I’m pretty sure there’s someone out there on the internet who wrote this information. Someone human. And you stole their work through this post.
