Is she an only cat?

Does PipePipe allow the user to log into their Google account, though?

Other responses have covered the “not without being logged into Google” part, so I’ll just add that if you don’t care about being logged into Google and the thing you want from a front end is Sponsor Block, then yes: YouTube in a browser with the Sponsor Block extension. On Android, the YouTube app w/ Revanced accomplishes the same thing.

I’ve gotten pretty good results from Perplexity. The responses contain links to sources, Wikipedia style, which enables me to verify the answers in the AI generated response.

oh, I am? purrf 👌🏻

Did the ride in the autonomous vehicle cost more than a human driver, or are you making a blanket statement about taxis in general?

Care to elaborate? What was stupid bullshit about it as a rider?

Do you use anki on Android? And if so, any Android app recommendations? Last time I searched the app store, several results came up, and I didn’t know which one to choose, so I gave up. 🤣

crowd sourced traffic info

I did not know that about Magic Earth. I’ll have to test that out on my next trip into the city.

Can’t wait for some people to cite increased voter turnout as evidence of fraud!

That’s some solid form, 10/10. 🏅

Thanks for the tip—I did not know that. I'll give it some more time and practice w/ quicker swipes. I'm on the Pixel 7a.

Got it, thank you so much!

Thanks, I'll take a look at Revanced. The top two search results on DDG are revanced.net and revanced.to. The third and fourth results are two different githubs with "revanced" in the name. Is there a tried and true community approved way to get it?

I had not considered that. Thanks for the tip.

The GrapheneOS installation process is exceptionally easy to follow. It's much faster and easier than the old Cyanogenmod days.

That is comforting to hear.

As for whether or not I can flash a custom ROM, if the boot loader is locked, then I’m SOL, right? (hence your original comment)

I wanna run GrapheneOS, so thanks for the heads up.

Based on reviews, the listing in my OP looks like a mixed bag—some reviewers complaining that the boot loader is locked (hence they cannot flash a custom ROM onto it), others complaining that it’s unlocked (hence a security risk)—so if I get this phone, I guess it’s up to chance whether the bootloader is locked or not. 🤞🏻

I see. Thanks for clarifying.

Gotcha, and then is the protocol to just sell it back at the end of the trip?

Gotcha, so would you say this comes down to buying from a reputable store (e.g. Best Buy)?
