Loving the jpeg artifacts in this. They add a lot to the experience.
This is great! There seem to be quite some tricks out there, one I learned is to focus on the temperature of your breath and where exactly you feel it while breathing. In the beginning it's just little moments of thoughtlessness, but you can make them last longer with practice.
There's also this reply I read on /x/ like ten years ago that has stuck with me, to the question someone asked, "how to meditate" – "Notice the space between 2 thoughts? Enter it."
There's this 15 minute video on the topic. It's been a while since I watched it, but I think it was good.

We may or may not have used bitcoin to buy substances and weed on silk road and... I think it was dream market, not sure, back in the day. 1 bitcoin was ~350€ at that time. I watched bitcoin become more and more valuable and less and less usable over the years, which at first I thought was very odd, until I realized that everything that roughly resembles a stock market is more or less mostly used by gamblers.
I just don't like the premise of a market where one has to sell their artistic labor in order to survive, or thrive. I'm on board with noncommercial licenses and everything because the reality looks different, but that was not my point. And neither was it the point of the original comment you replied to.
The problem with copyright/data ownership is that it's useless if you're unable to enforce it. Data is replicable, doesn't matter if you call it "work" or "ideas". Do you think you own the text you just wrote? Let me show you something.
Spoiler
We aren't talking about "ideas" being stolen here, we're talking about work being stolen and exploited for corporate profit.
Personally I don't think it's crazy to suggest that the person who writes a book should own it, the people who compose a song should own it, the artists who paints a painting should own it, etc.
As much as techbros love to pretend that AI is ushering us into a post-capitalist, post-copyright Star Trek future, it is actually in fact doing the exact opposite--it's empowering the biggest and richest tech companies to exploit human creativity in the largest industrial plagiarism scheme in history, all so some bullshit VC investors can gain their way up the pyramid scheme known as the stock market.
There. I just stole your text. I stole it. I own it now. It's mine now. What are you gonna do about it?
Instead there is no stealing when it comes to information, there's only replication, there's only copying.
I agree with you, corpos shouldn't have this amount of power. But you won't get there by trying to protect the work of artists writers etc with the exact same scheme corpos pulled to protect their power and interests. Like, it didn't work, did it? No copyright for me, thanks
Years ago, when Telegram was relatively fresh, I convinced most of my friends and acquaintances to use it. I don't know how I did it, but now that I want to get away from Telegram, I wish I could do it again.
I agree, Graphene is not for everyone, and what you wrote is a perfectly fine opinion when it comes to privacy- and security-focused daily driver OS's for smartphones. If you're a protester or a journalist though, it's all or nothing. There are no alternatives, no compromises that can be made. If you use a smartphone you are at risk, even if it's a Pixel with GrapheneOS.
They did say on several occasions that they would support other phones if they weren't locked down (Samsung) and commended the security of upcoming Mediatek and Qualcomm chips.
