I recently checked out BAR and liked it. I don't like micro in RTS games, because I always think "a computer can do this better than I could", so it's nice that they've got good unit automations available.

If you're not using a custom ROM, you're leaking info like a sieve to OnePlus. I moved to LineageOS because the default OS was sending every app you opened and when to the mothership. Even if they've stopped that, they've got every incentive to suck you dry, and you'll spend much more time fighting your OS than if you just switch to a different one.
What a shitheel. They're trying to justify imperialism with realpolitik, but they're not even doing a good job of it. The third option is that other countries help out Ukraine against a crazed imperialist. It won't be easy, but right now, Ukraine retaining its sovereignty looks actually likely.
Much of the concept of "intellectual property". Here's a good essay by Richard Stallman:

Copyright by and large needs to be abolished. Patents in software are nonsensical, and elsewhere they should be drastically scaled back. Trademark is alright, with a few adjustments needed.
But all of the above is hiding behind a concept of "property" that just does not apply to intangible things, and we need to stop using that term to describe them.
You're going to get a lot of comments about Ubuntu and snaps. Definitely one of the reasons I switched away from it.
Gary Larson has commented on how he accidentally writes some pretty indecipherable comics. His most famous one even has its own Wikipedia page:
I expect it's pretty close to the same demographic as early Reddit, left-leaning technologists. The Reddit dickery has given it a smattering of "everyone else" as they've been migrating away from Reddit.
I got my family on Signal by buying them each a drink to install it. Might be worth trying
It's the midpoint before we ascend to enlightenment with NixOS
It just means having to micromanage a particular unit's actions. I like it more when I can say "patrol this area, return fire and advance a bit if necessary, but no further than this", instead of having to flip back to those units constantly to manage them. IMO it's more thematic anyways for a sci fi game, you're probably going to have units with a basic AI in them in-universe.
