Ideally, to a Linux phone. If not, a regular dumb phone. I’m staying with Android until September 2026 at the latest, so I have time to figure it out.

Forget it. Privacy-wise, Android is a sinking ship, they can do whatever. I’m out.


Okay, how about we rephrase “Nothing to hide” and change it to “Everything to show”. Doesn’t sound good, does it?
As an aside. this stupid, tired argument is old enough to be of drinking age. Let. It. Die.
I thought Vaultwarden was a server for Bitwarden? I didn’t know it could interact with KeePassXC.


Nothing wrong with promising. It’s the delivering part he has problems with. Heck, he couldn’t even deliver his own kids.


Can someone clarify: according to Murena’s website, they use /e/OS, which is what they call “degoogled” Android. I would assume degoogled means no Play Store. If that’s the case, what’s going to happen next year, when Google starts blocking installing .apks by unverified developers? Which, I’m assuming, is a good chunk of developers who have apps on F-Droid.

Also, if he’s the chief architect, then this is what he’s building:

I’m going off of a article by TechRadar, but essentially: yes. This isn’t about breaking encryption as I initially thought, though that seems to have been the goal when the same law was proposed (and rightfully rejected) in 2022. Rather, the new revision is about making encryption utterly pointless through the virtue of scanning all messages on your device, as you suggested. At least that’s my read on the situation.
Only material that is clearly child sexual abuse will be searched for and can be detected.
Uh-huh. And how do you search for something specific without decrypting everything first? This is fucking embarrassing.
Deleted my google account about 10 years ago. No “experiences” to speak of, you just have to go in knowing that you’ll lose online access to everything Google: mail, calendar, youtube, etc. But that’s what Google Takeout is for.
As for your last question: No, I don’t. Lack of trust is why is wiped my Google account in the first place.


Wow, same banner and everything. The BBC article has more material, too. Thanks for spotting this.


If their glasses make you “super intelligent” when you put them on, then maybe they should put on their own product and finish school? That was my line of thinking, until I got to this part of the article:
Ardayfio called the glasses “the first real step towards vibe thinking.”
…and then I realized I have no idea what the hell they’re talking about and stopped reading.


How about parents supervise their own kids them-fuckin’-selves?
There was nothing wrong with Google Talk and they just killed it.
As a former nVidia user, I cannot stress enough how much better gaming is on Linux once you’ve switched to AMD. My experience with gaming on Linux with nVidia was stressful, annoying and frustrating. And most of the problems stemmed from their shitty Linux drivers. Heck, from December 2024 until recently even their WINDOWS drivers were ass.
I am not touching anything nVidia until the open-source drivers are up to par with AMD’s and it looks like that’s going to take a long, long time indeed, if ever.
My experience as well. Fortunately, I was able to remedy this by flashing a fresh install of LineageOS. Though, I do understand that not every phone is able to do this and even if it is, the process can look intimidating for newbies.
Repairability of smartphones is such a non-issue in reality, it amazes me that people are so crazy about it.
I’m sorry, but I take issue with that statement. Here’s how many steps you need to take to remove a battery from popular phones:
And I have to stress, this is the number of steps to just GET to the battery. I didn’t count the steps for battery replacement and reassembly. And all of these require some sort of specialty tools like having a gel pack to melt the glue inside the phone, or specialty screwdrivers for proprietary screws, etc. Not to mention the time and patience you need to expend.
Contrast this to the Fairphone 4:
No tools needed. 2 minutes. So no, I absolutely refuse to believe that phone repairability is a non-issue.


What do you mean? Thunderbird literally IS on Android (F-Droid, Google Store).
Once they press the letter T, the letter H stops working.
