As a pirate, I approve of this take.

Comes with a free space heater too. Neat.

Stan culture is so weird.

Idk, it wasn't there on Fedora 39.

As a new linux user, I would like KDE to fix their trackpad gestures because they suck. Please copy Windows or macOS. And I want fractional scaling in GNOME without everything looking blurry.

No one buys a Pixel to game lol. People buy it because it's smarter at normal phone stuff. Unless you're like me. I don't really care about that stuff and I want privacy, so I bought one for GrapheneOS.

Mull is the best Firefox fork on Android. Vanilla Firefox has trackers and telemetry by default and very little protection against fingerprinting.

See: DivestOS browser table for more info

There is no such thing as a private carrier anywhere in the world I think. Cellular networks are tracking networks.

AirTags are too powerful and too good for mankind. We are assholes.

I checked it out last night. I really wanted to like it, but man, it sucks. There's currently very little content that I like and it seems to be a lot slower to load and navigate than YouTube. Even when i found something that I liked, the video kept buffering and buffering. It was overall a horrible experience. And i tried a couple instances. They all had those issues.

Thank fuck. I hate those jerks. Good riddance.

Here's what I do. I have GrapheneOS with 3 user profiles for compartmentalization. Mullvad VPN on and set to different locations in all profiles except owner profile. I straight up don't use the owner profile. I let it sit empty. I only use the two other profiles as they don't have as much access to the phone. One's my FOSS profile, which is my main profile. The other one's my big brother profile, which has Sandboxed Play Services. I think that's good enough for me, and I try to keep on top of permissions to limit what apps can access. You can always go further though, with more compartmentalization, no Play Services whatsoever, using no SIM/toggling airplane mode,FOSS dedication,.... but it all depends on your threat model. For me, I think what I'm doing is good enough.

Wanna hear something funny? So iirc webp is a Google format. The other day I was preparing slides for class with my friends. Anyway, we were on Google slides. I tried to upload this image, but it says it's unsupported. So i checked the format and whaddaya know? webp. So a Google service doesn't even support a Google file format. LOL

I'd even go so far as to say it's my favorite MCU show. I remember liking season 1 alot so I had high expectations for season 2. And I think they exceeded my expectations. Ke Huy Quan was delightful as OB and Tom Hiddleston & Owen Wilson had so much chemistry. Can't wait for the next episodes.

Huh. That's pretty good. Efficiency looks a lot better.

More cons from the specsheet: Display is too dim, and SoC is too slow.

This conflict is so ridiculously complicated.

With our eyes, duh!?

A while ago I watched a video from RealLifeLore covering this topic and the TLDR is that poorly drawn borders by the British and the French separating religious groups and ethnicities will all but guarantee constant conflicts and instability in the region

So many "the world will end" predictions didn't pan out lol
