That’s fucked up

Hahahaha, I heard the song immediately

I’m pretty sure we have quite a few meteorites that came from Mars.

I like vanilla, some people like chocolate

Not just Europe, everywhere. Look at all the breaches, every day.

Until those breaches cost companies serious money, they won’t do anything about it.

All together now:

I. Told. You. So.

I recently switched my cell service to JMP.chat, which pipes your SMS into XMPP (it’s brilliant, SMS is no longer tied to a physical device or SIM). I still get spam sms, but it’s far less an issue.

Plus I can pop any Sim into my phone and it has no affect on my phone number that’s with JMP. That all remains in XMPP, and the new SIM would just provide a different data connection (and it’s own number with its own voice and SMS).

Have you ever used Yet Another Call Blocker?

I’m curious how it compares to Carrion (I’m not sure they’re directly comparable, looks like Carrion does a little more than YACB).

I’ve used YACB for years, just to keep my phone from ringing for unknown calls, and only allow contacts to ring through.

There’s still Lineage (which is what DivestOS is based on), and Graphene for Pixel.

I’m currently running DivestOS on a 2017 flagship, it’s really good there (I also run it on some Pixels).

I’m really hoping someone (preferably a team) will pickup DivestOS. Makes me wish I had the leadership skills to pull a team together.

Eartha Kitt… Damn, she knew how to sing that song!

I dunno, laptops have gotten tremendously better - can run most of a day without power anymore. I certainly have charged my phone 3x as much as my laptop. And I already carry an external 10k Wh battery for my phone.

OP actually raises a good point about power consumption that I hadn’t considered in a while.

NeoBackup only works if rooted, unfortunately. Well, unfortunately users don’t have full control over iOS and Android without having to sidestep stuff.

Laptops are arguably potentially far more secure. Most mobile apps collect every bit of data they can (and have internet access for no reason) , and mobile devices have standardized ways of enabling it - how often other apps are launched, what other apps are installed, etc, etc. PC OS’s don’t have that stuff built in, and apps rarely have that kind of code. Plus they’re just easier to firewall (as much of a nuisance as it is to do. Hell, GCM was built to do most of this stuff.

Paid $150 for a Pixel 5. Pixel 7 is $200.

I don’t waste money on new phones, or new cars.

Overused? According to who?

Which “white people” are you talking about?

Irish? Scottish? Italians? How about Sicilian? Are Roma white to you? Greek?

See, that’s the problem with pre-judging someone just on immutable characteristics that you believe mean a certain thing.

Throughout time groups of people have been biased against other groups, for all sorts of reasons, largely just “out group”.

Assuming that only goes one way, and assuming based on skin color alone (again, exactly which color, is there a Pantone code for “white people”?) that everyone in that assumed group have the same experience is just nonsense. Or bias, prejudice, bigotry. Pick whichever you like.

Shit, I have a killer vocabulary, can spell words I’ve never seen… On a good day. .

Sometimes the brain just decides “ooh, that third letter reminds me of a story from when I was five” and now I don’t even remember the word I was trying to spell.

Ya just gotta be able to laugh when the mind goes walkabout on you like that.

Dammit, this should be the top comment.

Wow, doubling down with personal insults.

Well I’m convinced folks, OP just played the wild card. Time to go home.

So, because I find some Indian women, some Russian women, some Greek women, some Italian women, some Irish women, some non-Indian Asian women, attractive, that’s white supremacy?

Wow, TIL.

You forgot juvenile and stupid. So I’m up voting you and downvoting OP.
