  • Pay "contact-less" with your phone

  • Right.

    Because databases are never "hacked" and exfiltrated.

    (By hacked, I mean most of the time it's social engineering.)

  • It runs fine for me on Android 13

  • You never swipe!

  • Hahaha, dammit I could hear and see it all in my head!

    You better copyright this, it's brilliant!

  • Why the hell is installing new fonts such a foreign concept?

    跳过

  • Monolithic OS. Plus being Immutable.

    Immutable makes sense for a mobile device where you need a guaranteed way to ensure it functions as designed.

    The rest is because phone manufacturers and Google (and Microsoft, et al) forsee a future where you don't control your OS, so they then control everything.

  • I've used Picsay for probably 10 years. My phone says it's the pro version, guess I paid for it at some point, and I must just copy it from phone to phone.

    Can't seem to find it on Play, but it's on ApkPure

    I'm pretty sure the free version didn't have ads.

  • And their bullshit excuse for dropping SMS support.

    "It was too expensive from an engineering standpoint". Nonsense, Android handled it, your app merely reads and writes to the SMS database via an API.

    Or are you telling me the free SMS apps like Handcent, QuickSMS, etc, had a massive engineering team?

    This is when I stopped using Signal, when this lie was so blatant, I can no longer trust them.

  • Add on to that, their bullshit excuse for dropping SMS support.

  • Save your computer from Microsoft's Windows 10 end-of-life planned obsolescence

    跳过

  • Just don't upgrade?

    I just retired a Windows 7 box this past summer, because it just worked until then.

  • Why did the first people to settle in very cold climates decide to settle in such a harsh climate?

    跳过

  • Yep, following food.

    Or, it wasn't as harsh when they first appeared. I mean there was the Little Ice Age in Shakespeare's time, where the Thames froze over. If you took that as a sign it was becoming permanently like that in London, what would you do? It's not like you have somewhere else to go that you know it's better (or hell, where anything is).

    People in the 20th century easily forget how little knowledge the average person had even 100 years ago. Hell, even the information the wealthy had. Just a couple hundred years ago a globe of the earth was practically priceless. They were still a luxury in the early 20th century.

    if you're the kind of person not to burn bridges when leaving a toxic job or toxic coworkers, why?

  • All risk, no reward.

  • Kids

  • Why do we use the term Ban when it's temporary? Why not the more accurate, Suspension?

    跳过

  • No, it doesn't imply anything, you're inferring.

    Definitions are written to be clear. Anything beyond that is the reader's inference.

  • Why do we use the term Ban when it's temporary? Why not the more accurate, Suspension?

    跳过

  • It also doesn't say permanent.

  • Some people like to suffer.

    I'll go a long way to reduce my data exposure, but ffs, Windows and Office are the standard worldwide, for a reason. It's just naive and foolish to fight this battle while you have enough pressure and time limits as it is.

    And I run multiple Linux-based systems in my home lab, but my laptop is windows, because "ain't nobody got time for that", as Sweet Brown would say.

  • Microsoft published that script to Github.

    Calling it piracy to use their openly published script is... I don't know, incorrect?

  • Do 10% of developers do nothing?

    跳过

  • Or have incessant meetings with Senior management or Business Unit leadership to keep them in the loop or even constrain their unrealistic expectations.

  • Friends and family won't switch to private messaging apps or phones. Is there a point in avoiding Google Messages app?

    跳过

  • And being a Google app, which means it can access everything.

    I'd sooner use a regular SMS app, and not reward their behaviour. Which is what I do. You want to use garbage like SMS or RCS? Then you suffer the issues that come with SMS.

  • Been awhile since i modded phones. looking for degoolging advice

  • I've had some luck in the past with simply disabling all the Google stuff via root.

    Sometimes this caused bootloops (10 years ago). More recently it caused a recurring error message. Sometimes it worked just fine.

    Re-enabling Google services and rebooting typically resolved the issues.
