If you don’t want to be tracked, don’t go to reddit. Being able to block Google servers won’t do much except that it gives Google information too.

Reddit can still track you via IP address and fingerprint every device you use. Reddit also now blocks VPNs unless you sign in. Signing in also tracks you.

Try a Libreddit instance and see if you like it. But it seems like you are very particular about UX so I doubt you will like it.

How did you get gender and sexual orientation from anything I said?

This is just my opinion.

There were only 50 employees in BlueSky in 2021. She was probably one of the few people that started a company out of those employees. That’s what I got from her Wikipedia.

I’m gonna guess is she is liked by her coworkers, she does well in presentations.

Also bluntly, her background of being Chinese and Swiss is a good look if they plan on marketing internationally. Her age probably plays a big role. No one wants to follow a company with a CEO that’s too old or too young.

Why are they leaving? Their biggest fans are on Xitter.

Because it’s second dual purpose is to hold the visor in place. It does it horribly considering how many times it was removed.

No no no no!

Skelegram is my startup that sends skeletons to people to their email address or physical address.

Skylar know who Ted is.

Even though Google Search is turning to crap, most people would still choose Google Search if prompted to choose a search engine.

As for Google Play Store integration, this might lead to Android phones having to choose a store in install like picking a browser for Windows.

They think the self driving feature is always on.

I taught computer science a long time ago. I have a tendency to simplify concepts to be more easily understood. Most people appreciate this.

I don’t even remember what it was I was trying to explain, maybe database sharding.

I was accused of mansplaining when I took the time to answer someone’s question in a meeting. So from that point on when that person that accused me of mansplaining was around I just gave direct definitions. If that person had additional questions, I gave the vaguest answer possible, I repeat the question as an answer, I basically tell them to Google things they should know.

What is SEO? Please look it up. We only have a certain amount of time for this meeting.

Meta also owns Instagram. The comment in the comic would have better directed at that platform

Agreed. A massive overhaul just introduces more problems. I wish they did the same with the OS updates.

I hope the scene learns from this. Use a VPN, have a completely different identity. Use a different browser, use a different handle, and don’t use any persobal info. If you are taking donations, use crypto.

I am going to guess they have WiFi access points.

This happened to me a few times. It forced me to stop updating until the software I need required it.

Samsung Galaxy S24 has this too.

I never heard of Boox.

I might get the Palma to replace my nearly dead Sony Reader.

Thank you for bringing that brand to my attention.

They should slow down the major releases. No one is buying a Mac for new OS features. They are buying Macs for the processor, name brand, ease of use, compatibility, and/or they need it to develope software for Apple products.

I don’t know of anyone talking about how the new widget system works with the desktop and the quick sidebar now. Or how they have new video backgrounds. Or how they made thr login screen icons smaller for no reason.

I mean, it can be used as a toilet paper receptacle. Just because you didn’t buy it, doesn’t mean you can’t review it. People review and return stuff all the time. I do not see anything wrong here.

If you don’t care about the newest Android features, it doesn’t matter much.

As for security, this is just my habit, but I don’t trust my banking apps on phones that don’t have the latest security update. I also won’t put anything important in it like work stuff.

I have older phones and they work fine without updates. I still use my stock Pixel 2, which is 7 years old and didn’t have updates for 4 years, for browsing and gaming.
