Yeah Google maps is much worse than OSM in my experience.

Same here

Yeah if the people didn’t want it they simply wouldn’t give their kids smartphones in such large numbers. Or give them unsupervised computer access.

It’s just the conservatives virtue signalling.

Ok the 1/10th is a bit exaggerated. But it is far less than in the US.

You don’t have to do your development in silicon valley though. If they do it in Europe or even India it’ll be a lot cheaper

Ah no I wasn’t joking, I didn’t get that, lol. It was also that the pic showed only for half a sec before a popup appeared to pay for the site.

Thanks!

Ps e-fish-ient lol

Makes sense. Apple’s customers are a lot less price-sensitive. And also, memory and storage are naturally a much larger part is the price in a $150 smartphone than in a $1000 one. Apple doesn’t do the $150 class at all.

You see that kind of smartphone a lot here in Spain where purchasing power is a lot lower than in the US. Still a lot of people using things like wired headphones too.

Why is there a can of salmon in the picture??

The same company by the way that recently got hacked by shinyhunters and got massive amounts of customer data exposed :(

Yes I’ve been worried about exactly this. I’m sure it’s very much within the realm of possibility these days.

Daniel strcat the top dev is unfortunately super paranoid. He really thinks everyone is out to get him and he goes on long crusades on the net that drag on and on and that’s why he gets banned. People just get tired of it. There’s long videos of all his persecution claims being debunked.

Last year he took a step back when it got too much but he seems to be back in full swing lately. He’s a good developer and technically very strong but he really needs to chill. Even his strongest supporters like Louis Rossman had to drop him.

I think what caused it was his partner swindling him during the time of CopperheadOS but really this is not cool.

Having said that, grapheneos is the strongest on security and privacy by far. It’s just sad to see all the unnecessary drama around it and yes it does put people off.

I would but I’ve always been opposed to systemd anyway.

But for me it’s a slippery slope I don’t think we should even get on.

What do they mean reauthenticate after 24h? I can’t authenticate as I don’t have a Google account. Although I do unfortunately have Google play installed, my phones can’t have it removed.

Torrents, you can’t peer with other people behind NAT.

Interesting. I’d actually pay for an in browser VPN, it’s handy to be able to switch countries on the fly. Ideally even per browser tab.

I would not however pay for Mozilla’s mullvad thing. I don’t like mullvad since they dropped port forwarding and OpenVPN. I use proton now for that. But in the browser is a different usecase for me.

It’s just weird that it’s not possible to pay for this but only for the thing I don’t want.

True though I block all the cookies anyway so accepting it doesn’t actually do anything :)

It feels like we need a new internet yes. With all the enshittification, commercialisation, surveillance by governments and industry, age verification etc, the old internet is ruined.

Maybe something like the dark web but more mainstream and less creepy.

Microsoft don’t care about file shares anymore anyway, they want you to sign up for OneDrive :(
