i saw that rock posting on lemmy.ml.

wasn’t expecting jojo on Lemmy I’ll be real

Possessing a digital device has nothing to do with consent. I’d rather not argue with someone so ignorant about reality they believe that privacy is a black and white issue. Goodbye.

I hope that your kids aren’t gay, trans, or part of literally any minority. If they are, I hope they aren’t hunted down by the MAGAts that buy the data you supplied Google with about them willingly before they could even be mature enough to form an opinion about it to be able to consent.

I dont like the idea of google watching what my kids buy. Edit for context: I dont like the idea of this being used to advertise to children. I dont like the idea of my child being used as a data point. I dont like the idea of a crazy ex who works at google using this to figure out what your kids are doing. I dont like ANY of the consequences of what this implies. Give your kid cash or a gift card. They dont deserve to have their Privacy rights violated before they can consent.

why. literally why. what purpose does this serve?

I mean most forks can’t do customization like this, most either stick to AOSP, or are closed source like OneUI and whatever the Chinese companies are doing now.

why is your UI so different

incest at your grandmas funeral

its actually very popular over on mastodon to nsfw tag posts “uspol”. Would be nice to see here as well

And LineageOS, MuerenaOS, CalyxOS, GrapheneOS, iodèOS, so on and so fourth, will still be using unencrypted SMS because, say it with me,

RCS IS NOT AN OPEN STANDARD.

just force your friends to use signal. I literally stopped talking to the ones that wouldnt switch. My privacy is more important to me than going out for a beer, especially now.

Thats the day I buy a Pinephone and go Full schizo with Mobian

It isnt, but unless you sink the price of a new car into an EV-conversion kit, the only options are older gas cars for consumer-friendliness unfortunately.

Other than writing your Congress-people (lol) or donating to non-profits that support Right to repair I have nothing at the moment. In my (limited) experience it seems that most cars built after 2010 have some sort of “only the dealership” type thing built in, so at the moment its kind of just “buying used”. Ive been considering getting an early model Prius when my car goes (pre 2015) but, depending on how the rest of this presidency plays out I may not even be in the country.

because tactile controls are old fashioned and clunky /s

As a right to repair advocate, the fact you had to take it to the dealer is a turn off for me. I’ll be driving my 03 shit box til it dies or I move to a country with good public infrastructure

Not talking about replacing the battery, I’m talking about every part having an encrypted module that only the dealership has the key to, meaning only the dealership can replace the part.

edit: and also the fact that most of them have that stupid giant tablet instead of buttons, and spy on you without consent.
