Despite often displaying similar levels of intelligence, humans are, in fact, part of the animal kingdom

Funny how we don’t frame it “what the fuck does the coffee machine need the internet connection for” when corporates release products like this

I mean, if they ban twatter, poor pedos loose the ability to conveniently generate csam, and pedos are pretty much a (the?) protected minority nowadays. Arguably, also applies to nazis, but assuming they can read is a stretch, so they can simply use any note taking app instead

4get / araa / degoog

<C-v>4j:s/element/container/g 🤷

I’m more of a funk guy, but I agree with the sentiment

Yeah, 8.1 took like 800 megs ootb, while 10 wanted about 3 gigs to itself (not sure about earlier versions, tho; mb enshitification happened gradually)

this is false

So far

Applies anything too “smart” for its own good. Too many cases of those having obvious backdoors like trying to reverse ssh home, not to mention stupidest vulnerabilities imaginable nobody fixes

I literally can’t imagine how boring of a life one should live to care if sb they don’t even know had an abortion or bathes while not cosplaying a tent. Those nutjobs should get a hobby or something.

It’s more like a chroot, not exactly emulation. The point, at least for me, used to be that some apps for android have better ux than their Linux counterparts (mostly newpipe vs freetube and antennapod vs kasts), but since both of those work reasonably well in ATL, I don’t really use it much now.

Compared to lineage, I quite like being able to run desktop software as well; nix is a godsend here, since they compile many packages for arm64 as well as x86. Although, to be fair, I haven’t tried running nixos in chroot alongside android; mb a viable option as well

The issue is probably the dropping of support for several obscure architectures used by 3 people combined due to there being no llvm support rust relies on

I mean, to some extent: waydroid actually works quite well, if you don’t mind their security issues, a few apps also work with android translation layer. My main troubles are actually with virtual keyboards: there’s nothing as good as heliboard so far, although the new plasma keyboard with custom layouts is usable

Well, duh. Antisocial media needs ppl to keep consuming to keep consuming to generate ad revenue. Currently far right are the trending clowns, so that’s one explanation. Another’s that twatter has always been a cesspool, while tiktok just shows whatever’s popular among brain-damaged individuals.

Jokes aside, might as well be a demo of the multiple testing problem, so implying that algorithmic feeds in general do this is premature (not that the article does this, so just a note).

P.s, not defending current algorithmic feeds either; I’ve personally all but cut those out of my life for good, and advocate for using white-box approaches instead, like what’s done in reccomend_from_archive that recommends tracks based on AA’s spotify scrape data and listening history/playlist exports.

To postmarketos preferably

Except you don’t have to use their browser version and can instead use their apps or their bridge or even a 3rd-party bridge like hydroxide, which makes injections quite a bit harder. They can still get incoming and outgoing plaintext (i.e. not pmail ←→ pmail) emails, tho

Have you tried 4get.ca? Quite usable, if somewhat childish.

Also, the documentation link in the readme is wrong: contents of () and [] are swapped here

Yap, newer models use those strips, my bad. Although, I disagree the inability to source stuff from the manufacturer isn’t a big deal: batteries made of chinesium tend to fail really quickly, up to the point I started replacing just the cells myself with known good quality ones after a couple of batteries failing in like half a year. However, I suspect apple should sell batteries for said newer models, since they’ve made 'em replaceable.

Depends on the device, I suppose, but incorrect for the m2 version at least, where you have to use adhecive remover: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+2022+(M2)+Battery+Replacement/156551. I wouldn’t go as far as to call this “difficult” as they did, but def. time-consuming.

Also, you can’t source just the battery from apple.
