  • Honestly I haven’t tried, so that’s possibly on me. But also I don’t want it on there, who knows what that app does, it’s at best suspicious, imho. I have a “dirty” phone with all the big tech stuff on, but at a pinch I can make it go online using my “clean” phone as a tether, but I’m trying to wean off the data harvesting apps like WA, Instagram etc



  • I’m currently trying to switch to using my Sailfish Phone full time. Unfortunately the way I’m having to do this is by keeping my old android about to run WhatsApp (because I can’t get friends and family onto something that also runs on Sailfish, which is basically Matrix or nothing as far as I can tell). It’s not great tbh, but I really like the idea of Sailfish (or Ubuntu touch).

    The Dalvik layer (which runs the Android sandbox) is ok, it runs some stuff but not everything and anything “security dependent”, forget it, so Banking and messaging won’t be supported, that being said the moment I find a bank that supports Sailfish, I will switch to that bank in an instant.

    (Ps. If anyone has anything to refute any of my statements here, like a good messaging app or banking, then please correct me, I want to be wrong)


  • It’s not just this, other policies he had were not popular with the New Labour element (which was essentially a lurch to the right, economically), which also helped to sow the discontent and dis-unity in the party during his election campaigns. The Israel thing is just the largest front they all attacked him on so it’s an easy turn to be able to say “well we’re denouncing genocide for one thing”. I suspect a more thorough policy stance will be more forthcoming.

    Sadly, I think the UK is too stuck atm, with it’s FPTP and (basically) two party system to be able to get a significant dent in the number of Labour MPs, however a show of support for (what I imagine will be) more social leaning policies might help to drag Labour back to the left a bit.

    I’m using the other comments to hypothesise but I think they are using Benedryl (an anti-hystemine/anti-allergy medication) and putting it inside a shotgun cartridge. The implication being that they will shoot people breaking into their house with a powerful over-the-counter narcotic.
