I’ll quit using anything that does that.

That is such bullshit. Just because people want their information private doesn’t mean they are a criminal. Glad it’s useful though. Definitely going to go graphene next. Not fond of getting a pixel, would really like a fairphone or something else more repairable, but security matters more to me.

Is this Hardware or software dependent when it comes to Android? Do you know? Curious about whether moving to graphene would even matter.

Where are you going to that they are a malware issue?

Would be great to see the actual deck. I get what they are going for, but still.

Right on, thanks for the direct links. I’ll definitely try them out.
- Comment on Valve ban advertising-based business models on Steam, no forced adverts like in mobile games 2 weeks ago:
Awesome, that’s for the recs! I’ll be sure to check them out.
- Comment on Valve ban advertising-based business models on Steam, no forced adverts like in mobile games 2 weeks ago:
That’s an excellent list, thanks for sharing all that. I’ll be sure to check them out. I wish FDroid at least allowed some kind of user rating system to make this a little easier but I can understand some reasons to not include that function. If there’s no rating system there’s no raring abuse lol.

I’ve had a hard time finding quality games in there. Outside of Shattered Pixel Dungeon they are few and far between. I still agree with your take though, because fuuuuck mainstream mobile games.
I made a rare dip into the play store recently and tried to just get the hill climb racing game or a similar one. I played them as web games years ago and liked them and wanted to play them again. All of them are so riddled with ad garbage they are unplayable. Even the lego one was stuffed with “buy gems or your progress is nonexistent” and other garbage tactics.
Every game I get in there is a disappointment. The Netflix games started out solid but I feel like they are going to change to more standard mobile junk eventually.
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 3 weeks ago:
I have large hands and I don’t like having to make the compromise of features or size. I prefer phones around 5in or a smidge under. But to have a modern camera I have an almost 7in phone. It’s really frustrating.

Many of those sound gross, but Baltimore…what the fuck man…soggy ass bread? I don’t even have to ask if you’re good because you are so apparently not ok.

I don’t have issues with it stringing, but bed adhesion is a pain in the ass.
- Comment on My favorite 1 month ago:
It’s not great food, but it’s far from the worst. I’ve had some truly awful food from restaurants that made me wonder hownthey existed. Olive garden is consistently meh. It’s not some place I would ever go willingly. But I know enough people are fine with meh. For some it is better than they get at home. And that’s why it’s still around.

Well, That’s where I’ve been checking. So at least I’m not messing that up.I just keep getting a pic of a suprised dude holding a bitten piece of fried chicken leg. I just popped into the discord and they’re only mentioning the digital versions so far so maybe physical isn’t opened yet?

Where’d you preorder? I kept waiting for it to be available.

I keep waiting for the ultimate edition to become available for purchase. Wouldn’t miss out on Stalker for anything. Russia can go fuck itself. I am sorry trump won here in the us and we may not be helping as a country anymore. I contributed in a few ways over the years but I wish I could do more than I have. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦

- Comment on Academic papers yanked after authors found to have used unlicensed software 3 months ago:
I think once a company is of a certain size they shouldn’t be granted IP and copyright. It’s helpful to protect first to market small companies or groups. Big companies can’t just clone and churn when they see something they want. But if they already have scale advantage they shouldn’t need or get IP and copyright advantage.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 3 months ago:
So hold it elsewhere? Why does it have to be at a business? Seems a weird place to have a vigil anyways. Why not somewhere more somber or respectful?
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 3 months ago:
I don’t think this is any of that though. Company property isn’t public property. The company can refuse service to people and require people to have permits for assembly. Employees don’t need to sit down and stfu, but there are ways to properly organize and do all the things they want without getting fired
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 3 months ago:
While they could power-wise, they won’t because that’d be too overt. They have to keep the meat grinder at a steady pace so as not to have countries coming in to stop them. Slow genocide is how they win. If you kill a little at a time countries think they can’t act on it or behave like they can’t.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 3 months ago:
I am glad it’s worked for so many. I wasn’t able to adapt to it.
- Comment on Microsoft fires employees who organized vigil for Palestinians killed in Gaza 3 months ago:
I mean…they organized in the company headquarters witbout any kind of authorization to do so. Almost any company would have fired those responsible. I don’t think it has to do with political opinion so much as unauthorized use of facilities.

I’m personally happy that it makes my pushes for Nutanix that much easier.
