Immigration is permanent residence. You can move somewhere not permanently, like on a temporary work visa - that is an expat. US/UK/Canada have a lot of treaty agreements with other countries, so a Canadian citizenship will essentially allow you into many countries more easily than those coming from a third world country. People from third world countries have to go through a more intensive visa process for temporary residence.

Another reason expat applies generally is because generally an expat from the US does not renounce their US citizenship despite the tax implications due to the need/desire to return home. The US is one of the few countries that will tax a US citizen anywhere in the world, which I think leads to the increased use of the word expat.

bet this will be a premium feature.

You’re not supposed to intrinsically have your sense of direction in an unfamiliar location. Some people can do that but assuming you’re not paying full attention on your way to a new location it’s actually normal and expected to have to get your bearings which means taking a moment to orient yourself and figure out what direction is what. And then it’s easy to forget (let’s say you step into a store) until you build a sense of landmarks. Also the more dense a location the harder it is because it’s more complex.

This is clearly the Samsung interface and thus not stock Android. Doesn’t even really look like the same feature.

I don’t know what it is about the government they’re like chomping at the bit to install technology from the snakeoil AI salesman.

I’ve purchased 7 games from them over the years, and my friends others. No issues. Started in 2014 with my last being in 2021.

Either Fennec or Mull. https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid/

Firefox stripped of its playstore requirements and telementry gives you fennec.

Fennec + arkenfox user.js installed = Mull.

yep firefox with arkenfox for me, same deal as librewolf. And Mull on mobile.

Switched about 2-3 months ago thinking it might be difficult or impact me negatively or something but its been easy and great.

Not my jam, lacks the power of the original.

I appreciate having your first hand insight and appreciate the convo

As a Canadian it’s insane to me to have a bill at all after going through some sort of health ordeal the last thing you need is a big scary bill with something to do.

if I honestly can’t pay my share. I can walk into the billing office at the clinic /hospital and explain I honestly can’t afford my share. The hospital will bill the insurance what they can, then look for extra funding. Most hospitals have a charity fund. It is based on my income. If I am broke and make crap wages, my share might be reduced to 0 usd.

So the ask here is for someone who already need to work every waking moment, and then just lost a bunch of hours being hurt/sick, to then spend their time explaining multiple times to the billing dept that they cant afford it (this is degrading) and then their bill MIGHT be reduced but it also MIGHT go to collections and which further goes to damage the individual by hurting their credit. just seems like a burden on the poor.

But yeah i mean its a difference in systems. I think about how canada builds it into taxes - everyone pays in at a rate consistent with their income levels and benefits similarly - but the US way is donations. And I hope that works too. It seems to work from what i’ve seen so far. but it seems like a round about way to get it done.

1. The intense income disparity.

2. Healthcare bills.

I suppose these are cliche topics but as a non-american non-tourist the first thing that has stood out to me is that the highs are so incredibly high, and the lows are so incredibly low. Being a Canadian, it’s not like we don’t also have income disparity…but the gap is not as insane. The rich in the US have yachts that are 100’s of millions of dollars, and the poor literally carry their kids on their backs while selling fruit on the side of the highway. You can see both in the same day.

Also I don’t think Americans truly understand that you can get weeks of hospital care in Canada and not even receive a bill. Like a month in a private hospital room and i paid for a phone bill, a wifi bill, and some parking fees. In the US if you even so much as flash your eyelashes at a doctor you get a bill for hundreds of dollars.

Nice view from Patterson Plank and Manhattan Ave

Revanced and newpipe fill different roles while covering a lot of the same functionality. Revanced is still the YouTube app … Just modified.

There’s a lot of ppl that don’t want the actual yt app for everything that it is. Also this being Lemmy there’s a lot of users looking for open source alternatives for all apps.

Reddit is already dead, the corporate AI shell is all that remains amongst some folk who dont realize everyone is a bot or an idiot.

/r/android used to be one of the hottest subs - it’s literally just posts from the same 2 OPs linking to their professional news articles.

Do you have a monitor with high refresh rate and like an overdrive mode to make it go higher? Overdrive mode kinda does this imo

It really just proves the point though. Hardware at time of production is a major security risk and any side needs to be aware and protect themselves.
