Like I said over on Matrix, this is the bit that would bother me

I think the one thing to take into account is if !android did grow to silly levels (I joined r/Android when it was at ~1000 users) when you have 2 million users you do need a degree of a separation

Help vampires while I like to try and help, there's too many of you 🙈

Similar to this bollocks we have in the UK, stopping Internet users accessing content leads to one or two things.

Geo proxies to bypass it, or some poor soul downloading malware hosted to fill that gap. Stupid stupid stupid.

Rumours are a fundamental part of the news cycle, whether it be Android or whatever, because a fair amount of the time they turn out to be facts?

with minimal admin required (which is my main issue, i don't really wanna admin stuff in my free time)

that's actually one of my fave recent things they give up with their security reports and points out I installed Entware (aka Optware for alt devices) even thou it's not been used. They're nifty things

I usually limit it to 80% during the summer, but because I work outside and through the night too my battery can reach very low temperature levels which absolutely hammers my battery life so I let it charge to 100% / or just to warm it up via a small powerbank on my FLT sometimes during the winter months.

As for longevity? I usually go through a phone every year or two so I don't see the wear of of what others are saying in here using their phone for over two years (that's my max), but I feel the 20/80% guideline is a fair one to go by since the reported 100% isn't fully accurate anyway.

it's written in plain language

Could you cite the parts which are irking you specifically please?

Taking someone's word for it isn't really kosher in terms of privacy for some people, but I do reckon they'd like to hear your thoughts.

I've also been using Linux for a similar amount of time, and it's only at work now I have to use Windows.

And as for home users using Linux? I have a few family members quite happy with Ubuntu / Firefox since all they need is a browser and VLC for their "PC", so I don't know where you got that "it'll never get there" metric from.

Alright they don't have a clue how Jellyfin works on that box, but they sure do appreciate and use it a lot these days now they've got used to it / dumping Netflix.

Why would they do that?

Easy.

Back scratching and you've got to remember these community's / sport / events have global bodies such as UEFA wanting their ching ching.

Them getting off their cushion of sponsors sending them money for the infra, and then doing fuck all other than regulating how the monies comes in is fairly telling how it's going to affect them both downstream and, upstream :/

It's nothing like that :D

Once you're in a pool like I was above, you get websites that collate this data. But the thing is is that "IP pool" was also shared with someone else hence it showing me "liking porn", even though I never touched these mofo's

That's the thing - it is legal. Whether you're in a public library, torrent swarm, or on the high seas. Makes no difference if you want to play by every law; of every land.

You could be there all day playing whack-a-mole but ships cruising by don't really care since that bounty is shared already.

in most lands

Well in that sense you're breaking the law of your land by commenting on such a forum since we're on the high seas here if you didn't notice?

And no, I didn't intend to be rude if you're inferring that but it's blatantly clear what this forum is for and them being employed by someone who purports to protect their privacy selling such a service but then feigning ignorance

In most jurisdictions, piracy is illegal no?

if "it's illegal", is telling.

Tell ya what would be great, a follow up on this weddit post?

I work for a VPN company.

So, you understand how things work then right? Or are you being hypothetical?

In most jurisdictions, piracy is illegal no?

No, it's actually embraced by communities such as this sprouting up. Are you a caveman or something?

Which i can ignore with out any issue since they have no idea who i am.

Issues will arise if you reply to them.

This sounds like the scare tactics they use for TV licensing here in the UK and is telling by how they change the letters to "The Occupier" after no replies to their scam.

Knock knock knock through the day / evening when housewife's are about and they prowl like fuckers. I had the opportunity to scare one away when they didn't expect it (really didn't like the fact that however much they asked for "my name" they got a blank look) and they ain't been back for years :/

Fuck Capita for scaring old ladies and fellow sailors.

lol, likes porn eh?

I love these labels and torrenting porn is so noobie it's not even funny, and don't most use Bing for that?

The score was underrated too IMO.

It used to grip my dad and he could never normally shut up during shows like that, but for like you say not a peep out of him for near enough a solid hour which was odd. He loved that shit ;)

For anyone else interested in Line of Duty.......

Depends on how you currently download your bounty, and if it's currently via torrents / public trackers like I do and you don't get angry nastygrams from your ISP (Britbong here), you're good to go?

If not however use of a VPN is recommended and you could go one further actually and buy yourself Usenet access, which means you don't need no VPN and you're rock and roll.

From what I recall thou you Aussies have lots of anti-pirate groups being knobheads so probably wise to hide your traffic? arrr

To be honest, I've used Bluetooth headphones before Android was even a thing (stupid W850i proprietary ports and all) and love them.

However, dickhead here just put my Soundcore buds through the wash so there is argument for me having a backup which this Poco F6 is now lacking.

It's a silly divisive topic IMO which is never gonna be solved when blog authors put out articles like the above.

:(
