I hope they survive. They have an insane amount of books that might be near impossible to find today. I was trying to purchase old European comics that I read when I was a kid. French, Belgian, Spanish comics from the Heavy Metal, Metal Hurlant times and so on...

Quite a few have gone out of print for a long while, with a single issue sometimes selling used for over 100US, and not in very...minty condition (they're old, after all). But they have good scans of them in Anna's. I downloaded a few I can't purchase anymore...and I'm going to go to a print shop to get them custom print.

I've seen some similar periodic table crap recently. I'll going to guess it's some AI bullshit.

Because they don't have the TPM lock they want for enhanced security. It's a nonstarter for GrapheneOS devs and the reason only now they're starting to branch out. However they mentioned literally Qualcomm by name integrating it on their latest elite series, so I'm thinking more devices might be compatible in the future?

A NAS constantly phoning home about literally everything i do?? Yeah no thanks.

They literally made a computer monitor with android so it can phone home.

Where I live I have an interesting second hand market. I might be able to find something older like LTO5 at reasonable prices. I'm not sure however about the SAS to USB adapter...

Seems they have changed their app name to Pulse Garmin watch companion (by zoop). It's looking increasingly suspicious to me.

How about Lemmy.World?

Why is this strip following the kids narrative? I think the youngest person in the chat was...25?

While I'm happy that it's Motorola, i just wish someone like Fairphone also bites the bullet of investing in a proper encryption chip that's acceptable to Grapheneos. I'd like to see more or a trifecta (duofecta?) of trustworthy OS and sustainable/committed manufacturer.

And "flops" is the headline?? That they got this level of performance so quickly should have been. Wait a couple of years and let's see where are they at then. Holy cow that's really fast progress, i can see them beating Intel gpus pretty soon

Lol.. From Transparency to "Just Trust Me Bro".

I saw a couple days ago they are not even respecting subreddits that were actually private from the beginning. I saw the mod of a private breastfeeding group freaking out because they were going to make the whole thing public.

No worries, play store-recaptcha is coming for you too!

But apps outside of their store (such as fdroid) get constantly pinged for malware security scans, and android treats them as second class citizens in a lot of scenarios. It's really frustrating to fight your phone on so many fronts just to use the apps you want.

Just like the reddit user mentioned, you can only be a free EU citizen under Google TOS.

So not only google is trying yo crush fdroid, they're also trying to crush anything without google services. I really wish the EU moved immediately on this one...

Gee, I wonder if not putting Alan Wake in steam might have had anything to do with it?

Please publish it in fdroid and some public git repo.

Turning off your history in Google is about as useful as using the incognito mode in Chrome. It just hides it from you, but you can be sure Google is keeping their own copy. Don't use Chrome, gmail, Google docs.... Use custom ungoogled roms (GrapheneOS, LineageOS). Switch to Linux, use privacy friendly dns, or even your own... The path to privacy is a long and arduous constant fight, full of inconveniences.

Very PBF vibes.
