Okay, this didn’t make me twitch at all. Nope.

Or might as well say “Yes, I like money and want to sell to the DoD.” Source: may have used it in a slide deck once. Not actually sure, as the phrase wasnt as popular back then.

ew. Tell your government to stop mandating spyware.

Graphene does let you re-lock the bootloader. IIRC, whether an app works depends on whether they require SafetyNet full, or just basic. I have so far only found one app that refuses to work. However… it looks like MitID was recently updated and no longer works.

Starting on 2024-06-12, MitID have started using Google Play Integrity API during activation. This means that new installations will no longer work in GrapheneOS nor any other non-stock Android, as they are not certified by Google and will not pass the required checks. The app still works (for now) if you managed to get it activated before that date.

I agree it would be concerning if I allowed Gemini access to my phone. Fuck that. This shit is exactly why I am on GrapheneOS.

Even though sometimes it’s a pain in the ass, I like having a shape-shifting penis.

Protip: you can evenly ripen avocados and most fruits in a brown paper bag. I like to throw in a nice ripe banana to jump-start the process (gives off ethylene.)

Yes, and where I work the HV line is several times that.

You might want to go re-read it. This comic is literally making fun of the mental backflips conspiracy believers have to do. If you didnt get that, try again.

Ah, the ol’ lemmyroo

It seems likely you are using it tethered, vs wireless.

Yeap, same. I have given up on Android Auto because of that. I am not going to let Google hold my phone hostage so they can force me to pay ransom (with my data.)

I never use a Play Store version of anything I can find on F-droid or other repos I trust. Then I try it using Aurora Store. Only as a last-resort I try Google. Play Store is only for things I cannot obtian or replace another way.

Dont get discouraged. Kids who sample or dabble in many interests are more likely to be top performers in their field later in life.

edit: I cant find the actual study at the moment, but it was covered on No Stupid Questions, so they will have provided a citation.
