I agree with the sentiment but not with the advice "commit a felony to avoid maybe getting a felony". There isn't a chance you'll get charged with destroying evidence if they're already looking at you under a microscope like your hypothetical.
Anyone that concerned needs to just not store sensitive data on their phone, and use a messaging app that doesn't permanently store messages, either. That way you didn't erase your phone, AND they find nothing. Attempting to secure your data from the cops while you're already under the lens with a warrant is far too late.
Another case is if they get a warrant for whatever's on your phone, you knew, and then erased your phone.
Warrants make more sense, because a warrant can be issued just due to probable cause. They need that cause, but that cause doesn't have to be directly related to your phone. Once you know they have a warrant to search it, you would qualify as "knowingly" altering or destroying evidence.
Yeah, not OP, but I've done the same. Got a bike lock for free once because the owner forgot the combo. 4-digit number, so just a thousand possibilities, and I fidgeted with it for maybe 3 hours over a few days, got a free bike lock. Excellent value, I needed one.
Honestly I feel this was always the goal (one of several), but R&D is expensive. Shipping an odd phone that people still buy keeps the shareholders happy while the multi-year research process can eventually produce more usable results.
Single-flip phones were the awkward teenagers, now this phone can be the 18-20 age young adult, fully featured, but needing refinement. Next gen or the one after this will add a lot more robustness.
I feel involving a motor is a significant step forward in this project, still. Could be my inexperience talking, haven't done a lot with small motors, but while 17,000 is a lot, it's a job that only ever needs to be done once.
If I were to go about automating it, I feel like there's a decent chance that I misalign something and it "completes" the full set without unlocking.
The boring but truthful answers of "I have bills that can easily soak it all up without an issue (mortgage, student loans, car, etc)" have been said, so assuming I cannot use it to repay any debts, and I have to make actual new purchases, I'd buy things that I could pay for now but enjoy for a long time. 3-year VPN plan, multi-year phone plan, gift cards to restaurants (especially with a bulk discount like at a Costco), etc. Upgrade my cockatiels to a cage that goes wall to wall with real plants hanging out and all that. The little things that cost enough that I don't get them but not enough to be a life-changer. Probably be a good amount left, I'd get a moped or electric bike of some kind, and I'd upgrade my laptop to a stupid powerful one.
There's a need to skim through all the crap to find what's valuable, and AI offers to do that.
I have used it to learn things, specifically how to use Angular. Angular has enough versions, all still used somewhere, that genuinely valid and helpful advice from a few years ago is misleading. AI didn't so much take the place of a tutorial, it took my whole code and reviewed it, telling me what was wrong. Then I fact-checked its answers because I don't trust it, and yeah, it wasn't always correct itself, but it was more than 80% of the time, and even when it was wrong, it got me close enough that I could find the right answer where it failed.
Also, it does a great job with CSS right out of the gate, no mistakes yet on that front.
I stick them in /home/bin/ like I would for a compiled app. I found a forum for mint saying thats the expectation for user apps with no specific install location, which is pretty much the issue, anyway.
The agreement, according to OP's source, would prevent them from seeking sources that aren't official sources, and also locks down a lot of journalist interpretation.
This means that the document basically says they gotta parrot whatever the government says to the press, and not do journalism about it.
Fox news might live on propaganda, but they don't want to be constrained by whatever propaganda the government is nice enough to give them, they wanna make their own.
I think it's most likely being rejected because they understand how a slippery slope works and are concerned that soon private media won't be allowed.
