- Comment on Motorola confirms GrapheneOS support for a future phone, bringing over features 4 days ago:
That would be like a dream come true. I’m about to become excluded from mobile technology as my phone seems to be starting to present hardware failures, and I can’t stand to use large ones.
- Comment on The only difference between a monster and a decent human being is the privilege of a support network. 5 days ago:
Plot twist: op was ironic, meaning that with a large enough support network, even mosters can manipulate the public opinion to appear as decent people, while without such network, even decent people can be unjustly flagged as monsters and will be helpless to prove their innocence
