The plans, which the Journal report described as highly secretive, are part of a 10-page document that suggests Trump — if elected — would be consulted on interest rate decisions. Along with those proposals, the draft contends that Trump could remove current Fed Chair Jerome Powell from office and require that Fed policy be aligned with the administration’s goals.

@craigraw Can ppl still coinjoin using sparrow or not anymore?

Hi @Start9 team. I recently installed startos on an old Lenovo thinkpad (I installed the “non free” version if that matters. It seems like everything is running well. However is there a way for me to turn the screen off of the laptop so it doesn’t consume lots of power? None of the normal hardware buttons I use to adjust brightness or turn screen off seem to work. Thanks!

I often wonder why people who I would think should value their privacy/security more than me (average Joe) use mainstream devices that are known to spy on their users. I understand many are not technically competent enough to use alternatives, but I’m talking about ppl who are way more technically capable than me. Like why is @jack or @jack mallers using an iPhone and not @GrapheneOS ? Why are folks using Mac’s and not Linux or bsd? Is it just that the experience is so degraded/not seamless that it isn’t worth their time (which I understand is quite valuable)? Is it just being stuck in default behavior? Switching cost just too high mentally? Or are the folks migrating to these things just tin foil hat wearers paranoid about nothing? I know folks like @Seth For Privacy and @ODELL are using such tools but is it because they just like to tinker or because while the switching costs are high, those are also part of their brand/business?
