- Paint.net: freeware windows mspaint replacement. Lightweight and simple UI, but powerful features and extensions system. I hate having to boot up GIMP just for editing a screenshot or something, but no other decent libre paint alternative exists
- SketchUp: this is to blender what paint.net is to GIMP. Super easy and intuitive to create simple models. A joy to use.
Yikes. I get not supporting mobile for now, but what about people who like to use little browser windows like me? Doesn't seem to be responsive at all.
Do people really expect this stuff to hold up in court? Especially when you've written an entire public blog post on how to deniably encrypt one
Nova Launcher is an example of a pretty good piece of software that fulfills all 3 requirements in my mind (it's a 3rd party launcher, or desktop, for Android). It's what I use personally so it fits my power user and ricing needs, but it's also what I set up for less computer literate relatives.
It has every option one could want, but they are organised sanely and are kept separate from the basic interface. I don't see why this is difficult.
As a power user you could easily set up your click and hold labels with KWGT or KLWP. Having this option available doesn't make the phone worse to use for normal users. All hail the android ecosystem!
Someone could go stalk their account to check, I can't be bothered with that right now.
I often see established vloggers and public figures recording themselves with a smartphone while driving and they always seem to be American.
I believe there has been some adjacent research done into the safety of manual cars which has found that they can be safer since they demand more concentration to drive.
The clear backpacks are silly I'll admit, and also pointless. I agree that kids getting conditioned to be okay with surveillance is bad, but this is all coming from the private sector right now.
In China, you now have to submit your face to be scanned into a database to get a new phone. This has already been normalized by all the face swapping apps, like Zao. Kids in the west wouldn't think twice about accepting the Ts and C's for Snapchat or IG or anything else that includes face scanning tech.

To me it sounds very much like Inverness, or maybe a native Gaelic speaker from the outer Hebrides. They have an interesting accent which sounds somewhat foreign, despite debatably being more native than English
