Wifi in apps that have no reasonable need for it, because it’s basically location.

I suspect you may have gone at it in a bit of a brutal way that I’m not sure is entirely effective, but then again I guess in this community there are better judge for that than myself…

How did you degoogle exactly?

I flashed a degoogle OS (Lineage) and immediatly flashed MicroG, before the first boot.

I was under the assumption this was the proper way to do it, but it’s been years at this point, maybe I misremember or maybe stuff have changed.

I have MicroG and don’t get those. I’m not sure it’s what you are looking for…

That’s what my mother does because she’s senile.

Having the dialogue is a good thing.

Let’s say, I don’t know, a government builds a great firewall and forbit people from trying to circumvent it.

This citizen has an account with this VPN provider is not “nothing”.

What?

“Don’t you guys have phones?”

Also, I htought 99% of tablets connect to the mobile network using a SIMcard, but even if you rely only on wifi, see my previous quote.

Tablets can’t run mobile apps?

I didn’t give it access to my contacts and navigate it by familiarity with profile pictures and using “Open in WhatsApp”, an app that let’s you… open WhatsApp conversation from your contacts manually (I need it only for a new contact)

I use it daily, it works wihtout issues for me, I don’t know what these dudes are talking about.

You are one of those hardcore the uglier the better. I respect that.

Thanks for the heads up, yea I’m well aware of that, I use it to, well… sync, my phone pictures with my PC.

I will probably start with this approach and see where it leads me, thanks!

Docker configs, sensitive documents, pictures, a limited amount of video files…

/s to a degree.

It happens to me as well, in my instances it’s most likely the social network they tied me to. Some friends of mine are heavy Instagram users and whenever I hang out with them I get almost real time relevant ads on my isolated Instagram.

Notwithstanding that running an LLM is still more expensive than a search engine, in any reasoning around running an LLM you must include the training and, most of all, the incentive as a consumer you are giving to further training.

It’s like arguing that cooking a steak has negligible environmental impact. The point is the whole industry meant to provide you the steak in the first place.
