What about using it without a subscription though ? I’m unsure whether this is good or bad for them, it loses them money but it also makes their user numbers look good so idk

I want GrapheneOS more than repairability, personally. I hope the Fairphone + GrapheneOS combination is possible some day…

My discord account is ELEVEN YEARS OLD !? Why would I ever need to prove that I am not a teen !? I would have had to create my account when I was 6 years old to still be a teen with this account, which is obviously ridiculous.

No, we don’t “Believe they are not doing enough to stand up against”, that’s slimy spineless wording.

We “KNOW that they are ACTIVELY HELPING”

Really hope GrapheneOS isn’t just Anom v2.0

Although to my knowledge I’m not doing anything illegal with it, but that doesn’t mean I like being spied on…

This would be nice but it ignores the fact cops (like we have today) shouldn’t exist at all. Cops are not the only way to do law enforcement.

Do read WHY they are mentionned, though. Most of his critics are mentionned a lot, and in that case it’s a good thing.

Look, I hate the Americans with a seething passion as well, but they’re getting fucked over even more than we are right now.

Evil doesn’t suddenly become okay when you dislike the victims…

comfortable office work to which most people aspire

What ? Do people even aspire to work in the first place ? And idk about you, but I’d rather have been a craftswoman if you could still live off of that.

You went to an elite school, and you studied philosophy; hopefully you have some other skill

You think AI can do PHILOSOPHY !? AI can barely put together one fucking function when coding, and you think it can do philosophy ? Either he’s knowingly lying (he is) or he understands so little about philosophy that the AI can fool him (probably also true)

I disagree. Hide the gear, in many circumstances they will arrest anyone obviously geared up before they even get to the event. Don’t draw a target on yourself and don’t make yourself like you’re here to fight, make them look as bad as possible by making it obvious they are attacking innocents.

If you show up in your own riot gear it makes them look like heroes. Being discreet is very important for the optics, obviously with a few small concessions made for protection.

For example, using an umbrella makes you look like a resourceful underdog, while using a homemade shield makes you look like someone who came for a fight.

You don’t want to look like you came to fight. You want to look like you came to peacefully protest, and they forced you to fight (notice I didn’t say you shouldn’t fight)

I guess this is good advice but it also is too conspicuous. Pool goggles are discreet enough, you can have them around your neck under a scarf and quickly pull them up.

That makes no difference. The problem is the length and the passive acceptance of what the app serves to you.

I guess it is an “improvement” that we can replace corporate brain rot with community brain rot, but this isn’t going to change my mind about short form video.

Sounds like these settings are very reasonable to have turned on. Although I would be cautious of how the “4chan” filter is implemented, it sounds easy to overdo.

But a better way to prevent it from getting there is pool goggles ! (and not ski goggles. Those have vents !)

All I can hear is “Get ready to smash some clankers soon” ✨

Thank you mister Elon Musk for making the most advanced punching bags yet ! Pretty please, can you make it so they bleed when we destroy them ? Being splashed with android blood sounds absolutely glorious 👑

My advice is : just use Nix.

It always works. It does all the steps for you. You will never “forget a step” because either someone has already made a package, or you just make your own that has all the steps, and once that works, it works literally forever.

It probably depends on what you do, but 16GB is still able to do everything I personally need from my computer. I wish I had more VRAM though, 12GB is getting a little short for some AAA releases (fortunately I rarely play AAA games)

“Your messages are public and being read by silicon valley creeps”

That easy enough to understand.

My take : Prices got you down ? Keep the hardware you already have ! No one else can upgrade anyway, games requirements aren’t going up anytime soon.

Obviously that doesn’t cover you if you don’t already have a machine, in which case I would go DDR3.

But for those who do, does anyone upgrade anymore ? I’m on 2019 hardware and everything runs perfectly good. Oftentimes great !
