I am still using a flip phone. My new goal is to make it to 2027 marking two decades of rejecting the smartphone era. Each time I consider compromising something gets even more awful about smartphones and I double down on saying no.

Yes I am.
I’m glad Mexico and Canada are a united front on this, but I wish other potential targets would join in to hit the US economy hard and fast. The US can bully one or two countries at a time and probably has the economic momentum to come out on top. So this month it’s Canada and Mexico but next month it’ll be Denmark or Panama. But, if the EU, China, Mexico, Panama, Canada all implemented targeted tariffs within a week, the US would be forced to back down.
Wherever you are if you’re a consumer outside of the US, I’d say give the US the BDS treatment right now.
Wouldn’t barely breaking even actually be exceptionally good in the history of twitter? I though it had been burning money from its conception.
Cool, but it the more learn the more I find that I’d rather Dansup wasn’t becoming the darling of the fediverse.
As an American, I want the world to punish us for our bullshit.
Someone go ahead and trademark the term “ghost printer.”
There are quality fabrics still manufactured but they are not often used in mass production of garments.
Any garment production requires scrap fabric. However a crafts person can repurpose and use those scraps where as a factory will just discard them. Also a huge amount of the waste in fast fashion in over production of products that don’t even sell and never get used before going to a landfill.
Absolutely.
I don’t know enough about sewing or programmable vector designs (heck, I don’t even know what it’s call). So, I can’t really contribute to the project. But I really want it to grow, so I promote it wherever I can.
I dream of it taking off like blender or Wikipedia and eventually having an archive of thousands of designs. Even, if most people wont sew their own it would help some people start small businesses creating quality clothing.
As best as I can remember, I’m on my 6th.
