Replying from my SailfishOS phone. It’s everything you dreamed it is.

Oh, so it does. My mistake.

I think my point stands though that its not the number of hours in a day that upsets me, its the numbers of days in a week.

I literally want the opposite of this. I don’t want to go to work six days a week for six hours, that just ruins and extra day of the week.

As it is, I go to work 5 days a week for 8 hours. I have 5 ruined days and 2 useful ones.

I would like to be able to work four days a week for ten hours. Then I have gained a whole day a week! And I usually work a bit of overtime anyway, what difference does it make if I’m going home at 5 like most people instead of going home at 3?

Sailfish is not proprietary.

Lipstick (the UI) is proprietary. The OS itself is not.

That said, as someone who uses a SailfishOS phone everyday, I both wish Lipstick was OSS and wish this Commodore thing didn’t exist. It’s only going to bring poor publicity to Sailfish due to its stupid pricetag and featureset.

That controller is fantastic for the price

Same, but I’m the only person I know who still drives manual cars.

When will smokers understand cigarrets fucking suck and the world would be a better place without them?

The only reason I haven’t bought a sidephone yet.

I say Gesundheit here in Australia like its muscle memory anytime anyone sneezes. My girlfriend hates it but its ingrained in me, I have no idea why. Its just a funny word

I’m religious, and I say that too. I think you’re in the clear.

More than ever

Give me a break, I’m allowed to go to church on Sunday. That doesn’t mean I’m a far right MAGA maniac. Just means I like a sip of watered down wine once a week

Eh, I’m an Australian who works with old British machinery, so I’m used to thinking in Imperial too. You’ll never get away from it, not in our lifetimes.

Diesel is equivalent to 2 €/Liter in Australia right now. Given that the country runs on diesel, its a nightmare. Even the few people who don’t own cars are hurting, because the ships that bring in food run on diesel, the trucks and trains that bring the food from the ports to the rest of the country run on diesel. The grain producers and cattle farms, some of which are the size of small countries, all run on diesel. The cost of diesel is hitting everyone.

5/32"? What in the washing machines per football pitch kind of archaic measuring system is that?

My car is 46 years old. Average vehicle in Australia is 10-12 years old. People who exclusively lease new cars are nuts! Assuming petrol is still around I’ll keep my car going as long as I can - and even then I’ll only swap an electric drivetrain into it. There’s nothing wrong with the rest of the car

They managed it on Jan 6 a few years ago

You wrote exactly that delusion into your constitution. The only reason you still have guns after everybody else realised they were bad was so that you could use them to overthrow some mythical tyrannical government.

Now the tyrannical government is here. Use your guns you love so much. Overthrow it.

Is this true? The luxury car tax was bought in to protect our auto industry, I thought that was still a thing even though our auto industry is long dead

Yep, my primary phone is a Sony Xperia 10 IV on SailfishOS. If I had a working camera and could take a call without being forced to use speakerphone I’d be over the moon, but as it is it’s pretty neat and there aren’t otherwise too many day to day issues.
