There are bad actors in government. People working those cases like the ones you did have way more integrity than the bad faith actors in the DoD. There are bad faith actors in governments breaking the law every day.

If you get to where you want to sell it, let me know. I just might be interested if it’s on a good day.

There is an e/OS camera and another that came with mine. Consult the forums. I typically just use the one with the black icon. If there were not camera crew issues they might not have included both. It’s important to support the underdog if you can stand it. If not, that’s okay too though.
- Comment on Judge scolds Mark Zuckerberg's team for wearing Meta glasses to social media trial 1 week ago:
That actually sounds badass if there was an option to not connect to anything else and also made by an ethical company.

Why? Are they useful for anything other than proping up surveillance state?

Uhhh. What else is there to do In NOLA? You absolutely have to go if you’ve never been. Just take Ubers and reasearch where you go stay. There is soooo much to do! It’s literally the funnest place to be, even if you hate Mardi Gras or the French Quarter. There is just all kind of stuff to do. Art, crab fishing, deep sea fishing, see alligators, voodoo shops, more drinking and partying than anywhere else, giant aquarium, Decandence and Pride parades for lgbt, naked bike rides, giant parades for St Patrick’s day, voodoo fest with lots of bands, Jazz fest, festivals and parades for random shit if they run out of excuses, daiquiris beers and hello shots available in drive thru, vampire balls, vampire bars, PRI football games, pro basketball games, cemetery tours, ferry to cute East bank or whatever, French market in quarter, walk around French quarter and party, take railcar to Irish are and party, go to beach 25 min away, etc.
Ha ha. Holy shit, what is there to do in NOLA?

I have had mine 3 months. Never going back. Samsung has a partnership with Google. They take all your data and.call home a lot. Start monitoring through NextDNS and start blocking the domains and you’ll see. I’d just reset.or reinstall and try again. Something sounds off.
- Comment on I want a phone I can actually fix, and Fairphone’s record growth shows the world does too 2 weeks ago:
Seriously? Like what did you put on it? I love mine. I basically removed MicroG and kept the basic ecosystem. Got Fdroid. Replaced voice recorder, calendar, call app with Fossify. Put an RSS feed on with Lemmy app, Peer tube, Searchix, and Tuta. Absolutely zero issues. You need to disable the MicroG call home though. Can you reset to factory and just be use trusted apps?
If you’re miserable, then something is wrong.

It’s got a rating. Not sure if water resistant or proof. They didnplan for it to be in rainy environments. Also, phone is modular and repairable by design.

I have no complaints. Went from Samsung S25 Ultra to FF6.

Fuck all of you. Go to New Orleans in a week when crawfish season starts and eat some mud bugs, some blackened redfish, jambalaya, gumbo, cajun crawfish etouffee, etc. Best food in the world.
- Comment on Trigger warning - This Epstein stuff is making me sick... 2 weeks ago:
Agreed. We need an assassins guild, but with people who can get the job done rather than nerds like me at the computer. Hell, a million ants could kill someone. Maybe if there are enough nerds…

More desperate pleas by Google. I just saw an article by some Google shill that made a case against self hosting. Next they’ll try to make it illegal.

So do you have to have an account on a specific server and then get the client or get the client first? I can’t recall how to do it any longer.

- Comment on DVDs and public transit: Boycott drives people to ditch Big Tech to protest ICE 3 weeks ago:
I have not been to Target or shopped at Amazon since end of 2024. It was surprising that those 2 habits were the two easiest to correct. If people only knew how easy it is… Deleting Facebook was easy too.
DeGoogling is very hard. I’m still working on it but the progress has made a huge dent in the amount of new personal info available for them to sell, or so I hope. It’s useful to start a list of accounts with emails you need to change and just block YouTube from phone.

You could play Belatro and set CRT settings on the graphics. That at least one option somewhere in the void.

Non a problem for me. How about an article in how devs release shittier, messier, harder to use, GUIs every goddamn release. I swear its like four buttons to power it off.
- Comment on DI.DAY is a Movement to Encourage People to Ditch Big Tech 3 weeks ago:
Americans need awareness more than anyone. I’ve tried to get them on board with digital alternatives and privacy discussions. It’s futile and exhausting. I think people like me will need to organize and build awareness campaigns to make a difference.
