How do these people that agree to a contract when signing their city up for Flock not understand about early cancelation and breach of contract clauses? Nah let’s just cause the taxpayers to pay even more.

I use a few MA apps, none of which have declared the internet permission. Nor would I ever want them to have internet access.

But a few MA apps actually do require internet to work for their intended purpose, and I will never install one of those out of fear all the MA apps “secretly” talk/share/IPC my data with eachother, effectively granting all the non-internet apps the internet permission.

I’m not saying this is happening. But I’m also not about to delve into the entire codebase to find out.

Maximize gains for the short term only, and screw the long term. Of course!

I’ve always used Server Superstore, the prices are decent and never had an issue with any unit.

It stores large chunks of data the size of the stripe width. This could easily be large enough to contain a whole text file, and enough of binaries to reasonably guess aa to what they are. Encryption may slow down IO, but if you even remotely worry about seizure you should absolutely be using it.

He didn’t like eating human food the first 100 times, maybe he’ll like this next dish though.

I think showing tracker info is still a good, insightful thing. Sure, giving an impression one piece of software is better than another because it has less trackers is a bad thing. Users that care about functionality will vet apps on that regard, same with security and privacy conscious users. Some users just like the app to be pretty, and if they ignore everything else but make a decision based in tracker count, all the better in the long run.

Been using zfs and btrfs for so long I forgot ext4 was a thing. Oh my.

Back when rooting was all the rage I tinkered with hosting various services. It just didn’t make much sense for such an underpowered device, amongst other reasons (battery swelling).

I did use an old phone to “host” a game automation. One of those “idle clicker” / RPG games since I’m so lazy. After about 2 months the battery swelled and popped the back cover off. That was the end to that idea…

The Zoop website lists a bunch of forked projects. But the site owner also claims that they made all of them… sooo…

While it doesn’t address your security concerns, using a VPN does allow you to circumvent resolution restrictions on certain mobile plans (i.e. streaming limited to 720p)

Poison the database with real facts too

Celebrate? You underestimate just how lazy I am.

Was the final nail in the coffin for me. Blocked Reddit via DNS house-wide so there’s no chance I accidentally visit them again… Can be annoying since so many answers are there, but as others have said extensions + wayback machine solve that. The block had reduced my frustration level considerably though, I have no regrets.

Restoring a local Signal backup doesn’t let you use the same profile on multiple accounts, it forces older profiles to deregister. Try it.

Ask your model to work harder. Sure.

The meth head part is perfect. No one wants to park in a spot a tweeker is ‘working’. If you are trying to save a spot, just act that out if you feel guilty.
