That’s doing that locally on your device, not on the carrier network. It’s definitely a good solution for this problem though.

This was an underlying plot point in Metal Gear Solid 2.

I still watch and sing along with this movie on a regular basis. It aged pretty well.

What’s a buttfor?

“Why? Because God hates me, that’s why. He has made my life miserable. So I called him a cocksucking asshole. Then I get grounded.”

“If it bleeds, I can use its proteins to reproduce!”

Just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

They only jail people outside of the in-group

There is no rum in space

Those are still from a reputable store. I think the really cheap ones are the Chinese ones that don’t even have a brand name. Slightly above that are the Chinese made ones with a nonsense word for the brand name.

Yeah, but they always leave it a mess

So basically this is where I’ve landed on this after rooting, moding, etc. all of my electronics for the last 30 years: for devices where I want to customize everything, it’s going to be done with a Linux computer to begin with because there’s absolutely nothing standing in my way. For other things that I just need to work reliably and not become yet another chore, I buy some product. So I would buy a thermostat, but build my own NAS (with a 3D printed 7-bay case).

I’m beyond sick - as I think you might be too - of all the extra stuff I have to keep up with whenever I jailbreak/root/whatever a device just so I don’t fuck it up with some careless action or update. I just don’t have the same amount of free time and mental energy to dedicate to this stuff anymore. I wish I did though.

I can relate. I’m getting tired of having to do this kind of thing for all my devices just to make them work. I’m even probably going to switch to iPhone because at this point I just want my phone to work reliably, and my OnePlus 8T never has.

My advice is to go to the XDA forums and find your device there. You should be able to tell from replies and view counts of the threads which of the ROMs and mods are the most popular.

It feels like they’re getting their legs again. I have even rewatched the previous season when I finished this one’s available episodes. It’s not quite as bad as I remembered, but this season has been stronger overall so far IMO.

I would have signed it too, but only because I’m awesome on fiddle and I could totally win my soul back.

Chromium is open source. Chrome is not. Open source also doesn’t mean that you can’t charge for the compiled binaries. But that isn’t my point. My point is that the reason it’s free is that you’re actually paying for it through the value of Google tracking and storing everything you do, but as a society have don’t have to structure services this way.

It doesn’t have to be free. People used to pay for licensed software with money instead of their private data. We can do that again, or there’s still open source options like Firefox and it’s derivatives.

Last week, but that asshole had it coming!
