  • Eisenhower was such a political animal / opportunist. At the same time as he’s decrying the military industrial complex, he did his best to rev up the cold war, squash anti-colonialist movements, carrying out coups, government overthrows, and terrorist attacks in Iran, Guatemala, Cuba, the Congo, vietnam, and indonesia.

    His foreign policy team was the Dulles brothers and Nixon, yet somehow he’s convinced future generations that he was a folksy old codger who disliked the military.











  • I’ve been following a lot of these, and unfortunately nearly all of them are dead.

    • YouAmp - Alive, jetpack compose + material v3, but very early in development. Barely any features. Probably our best hope for the future of these.
    • Tempo - The best current option, but dead for ~6 months. Has a few bugs, but lots of features. Java, not kotlin, but appears to be material 3.
    • Ultrasonic - Great option, lots of features, but dead for ~a year.
    • Dsub - Dead for 2 years, but revived now with a few bug fixes via this one. Doesn’t have much of a future, not being jetpack compose / m3.
    • Subtunes - Dead for 2+ years.
