  • The comment is no longer there, but claimed that FP did have a graphene image, which I found weird, and so I checked the website. I still ask if there was a chance was an unofficial image somewhere, since those things can actually exist

  • I did hear about the extended warranty because of this issue, but I was completely unaware of the check boxes stuff. Thanks for the heads up! Also... Clearly there are issues and stiil try to pull some shit with dark patterns. Classy

  • Didn't look iode before. I am not a fan of iode in general (as principle, as an os is probably a good daily driver). From what I see, the phone available from there that I could get would be the fairphone. But the lack of relocking after installing calyx is not exactly amazing

  • I do understand where you're coming from. I never buy a phone without a somewhat good discount (which I got on this one). As for the risk flashing, quite frankly the cases of breaking are so far and few in between that for the odds given nowadays, I am OK in doing this on a brand new pixel (for other phones that require unlock first and all that jazz I do not try it on brand new).

    As for the lineage os bit: lots of devices, but the lack of unlock for me is a no no. If it was an older device without important stuff such as banking sure, I would totally go for it.

    EDIT: where you read unlock I actually meant root. Most phones cannot be unlocked unless you have root

  • That is for sure a good question, although I would say it would present limitations.

    Let's put it this way: Id photos are very standard. Front facing, until the neck, white lights, white background. Now lets say everyone's photo got leaked (or used) and the only source of photos for a certain photo is the Id one only. I didn't study the matching algorithms, but I will say that variation for a certain subject under different circumstances increase the matching possibilities. If by any chance you try to match someone live and the only source would be id photos, my guess is it would present a big error rate. Possibility could be fine tuned, not sure up to how much.

    Now lets consider what we have today. For a single person, I will bet there are on average more than 15 photos of themselves somewhere available (for those chronically attached to stuff such as IG of fb) and a lot of the times tagged as well (and manually as well, there was a time on fb this was a big thing). With this amount of comparison points, I would say the matching for sure works a lot better

  • There is a detail that makes it possible: the absurd over sharing everywhere. If only everyone did not think to plaster everywhere their face with their selfies and decide to share everything everywhere, then maybe something like this would be a lot harder to implement (if possible on certain cases)

  • Depends. Some women cannot have enough milk production, some have over production. It's a bit of a gamble most of the times. In countries like Brazil there is a sort of system where is possible to donate milk in case of over production, and in case you don't have or not enough, you can have some of it (not sure about the details, but for me this sounds great).

    As for people saying formula is better than breastmilk, believe or not, Nestlé is to blame for this. Back in the day they touted that all over the place, and at some point, they got penalties for saying such bs. The fun part? They are using the EXACT same tactics on some under developed countries so they can sell more. Quite frankly, Nestlé is really up there on companies to despise ( Exxon is possibly the top one, but Nestlé is not really that behind)
