- Comment on 'Microslop' is heading for Edge – major browser redesign is inspired by Copilot, and it's already seriously unpopular 2 days ago:
Mint also makes setting up dual boot pretty painless. In a few months you may wonder why you still have windows installed taking up space.

- Comment on Why Are Cars Getting Rid Of Android Auto? 1 week ago:
Best thing to do is remove google play services if at all possible. Installing microg will solve most issues. This of course means rooting the device. Which is admittedly not an easy task when dealing with head units.

There are open source navigation apps. No need for google.
- Comment on Meta shuts down global accounts linked to abortion advice and queer content 4 weeks ago:
Exactly. My FB profile only still exists as a way to direct people to Signal. Messages on Meta, if I ever even see them, are ignored.
- Comment on Whats a good and proper alternative google message thats clean but better with privacy? - for texting 4 weeks ago:
I’m using 1.6.0 off f-droid on a rooted phone (not sure if that matters).
It works just like textra where the notification has a button to copy the code.

and it doesn’t offer to copy authentication codes from a notification.
I actually does have that now 🙂👍
- Comment on Half of the US Now Requires You to Upload Your ID or Scan Your Face to Watch Porn 5 weeks ago:
StarLink connections still exit on the ground, sometimes in a different state. You could gain access or get denied pron based on where your ground IP ends up.
- Comment on Don't throw away your old PC—it makes a better NAS than anything you can buy 5 weeks ago:
I’ve got a 12VDC Mini PC as my NAS/Jellyfin server with 6 SSD’s and no monitor that idles around 30watts and runs entirely off solar. It ain’t fast but it does everything I need it to do and costs zero dollars to run.

- Comment on RAM is so expensive that stores are selling it at market prices 1 month ago:
I’ll never forget the time someone in my neighborhood found out one of the local PC shops had a deal on 8MB of RAM for like 100 bucks. That’s not a typo kiddies 8 Megabytes. We were so excited, a bunch of us piled into one car and rushed over there before they sold out!

I have and continue to move around a lot. Many banks don’t have physical locations outside of their region. I continue to bank with them though if they’re good otherwise.
- Comment on Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions! 1 month ago:
I had one bank like that but when I called them they were able to disable the app and use text/email instead. The catch was that if I ever opened the app again it was re-enabled.
