Or we just… ignore them?
LineageOS and GrapheneOS could just be like “well, go on, then.”
There’s a market for everything and the FOSS and maker markets would eat up an open Android phone, even if the only apps you could install were community-created.

Dumbphone with tethering
A mini laptop/cyberdeck
A modern mp3 player
A small, modern point and click camera
hey gramps, where’d you get that gear, 2007?

There’s already a firm divide between the foss/self sufficiency crowd and modern tech.
If this is bad enough, you’d see every foss faithful walking around with a laptop, mp3 player and camera like they’re in 2009.
- Comment on The internet kind of sucks right now 3 days ago:
Right, the middleware is the issue. You can bake all of what Cloudflare does yourself as far as hardening goes and utilities like Anubis and Pangolin, buuut you’re not getting that DDOS protection.
To Lemmy’s benefit, DDOSing one of us isn’t DDOSing all of us, buuut there’s a bit to be said about Lemmy mostly centralizing around .world.
If one had a botfarm and a grudge…

Just one problem. Both are still dependent on Google and Android-based. How sustainable is that security model?

They take crypto, wash a few satoshis through lightning and you’re as good as anonymous.
sure, xmr would be better, but 🤷🏻♂️

That’s a niiiice tip.
Deleting my account and re-joining under TOR when my lapse comes around. Might as well hide my use entirely.

If literally everyone used it at all costs, websites would be forced to support traffic from it and blacklisting relays would kill the whole internet
A VPS is one of the best tools on the internet. Make your own relay, with or without blackjack and/or hookers.

You’re right. I can’t forget to factor him in.
It’s $100 less now.
- Comment on Sony is raising all PS5 console prices in the US by $50, starting tomorrow 6 days ago:
Then again, a gpu from 2018 still plays 90% of the Steam library so… more? Less? Relative.

“You don’t need a new PS4-game player. Your PS4 is fine enough as-is!”

Damn shame, Sony. I’m lowering my buy price by $50.

- Comment on What is a perfect anime? 1 week ago:
I LOVE FMA:Brotherhood, I love 90% of the ending but this seemingly intelligent being letting himself drain to nothing, knowing full well he was, was convenient and a bit flat, tbh.
He had tons of opportunity to gtfo and go back to scheming.
I can buy the “he’s too vain and he never feared or respected humanity” argument on Father though.

This is funnier than any Looney Tune after 1969.

FMA: Brotherhood until the ending when a teenager fist-fights an otherworldy being powered by magic and thousands of dead people.

- Comment on OpenAI will not disclose GPT-5’s energy use. It could be higher than past models 1 week ago:
Ai assumes too fucking much. I’d used it to set up a new 3D printer with klipper to save some searching.
Half the shit it pulled down was Marlin-oriented then it had the gall to blame the config it gave me for it like I wrote it.
“motherfucker, listen here…”
- Comment on Help. 1 week ago:
Do you think openAI or Google, or X or whatever billionaire behind the AI involved in these “relationships” cares even minimally about the mental well-being of these people?
No, but I wager neither does anyone else, or they wouldn’t be dating a datacenter.

God sure does enacting genocides on his “chosen people” quite often. I guess Muslims and Christians sometimes forget what they’re chosen for lol.

Epstein? Trump’s Epstein? Best buddy? His best pal? That Epstein? Appeared in several photos together? Fucked kids on an Island with the President of the United States? That guy? That the Epstein we’re talking about?
Ok, cool. I think we’re square.
