It’s pretty easy to put unbound on with pihole.

You have full control of the level of opt in. You can go always listening, only in high traffic areas, or completely opt out of the network. But if you want to use the network, you have to contribute to it.

Google is rolling out their own find device network soon™ with third party trackers that are rechargeable. They’re pushing it through play services too so every android phone in the world will be in the network too, so it’s a much more global network if you are traveling off the beaten path.

You’re right, I didn’t realize the lawsuit had been thrown out. The fact remains the law is completely unenforceable without serious privacy violations.

There’s nothing like that in the US that I’m aware of, though some states have tried.

I actually went opposite on my Pixel 8. A matte tpu screen protector gives you a self-healing protective layer that feels like paper and doesn’t have glare. A beautiful bright display with a high refresh that feels like a kindle.

There’s no way to enforce an age ban on anything Internet related without serious privacy violations.

Eh, it is easier to buy one. Besides, if I wouldn’t pass a background check I’d get the gun some other way. As it turns out, criminals care very little about abiding by gun control laws. Just look at the areas with the strictest gun control, they also happen to be the places with the highest rate of gun violence.

Also absurd and unconstitutional. You can make a rudimentary gun out of plumbing parts from a hardware store that is at least as effective as a 3d printer, arguably more so if you’re looking at 100% printed parts. Should we run background checks at the register at Home Depot? Should you not be able to buy plumbing if you made some bad decisions and served the time?

These are all ridiculous laws designed to restrict the liberties of the common man.

That’s the draw behind Framework, you can swap out the mobo with new ones as needed for a fraction of the price of a new laptop, and use the old mobo standalone as a server or similar.

Running away because I struck a little too close to home?

This is such a SJW argument. What are you doing to help any of those people? Adobe does charitable giving and employee matching for donations/volunteered time for up to 10k/month per employee. last year Adobe gave over 6 million dollars to various charities as a result of this program. They’re only able to do that if they are making money and innovating.

I’m not saying Adobe is a great company or anything, but they have done and are doing more to help disadvantaged people than you’ll likely ever be able to accomplish, and their ability to do that is dependent on their business being successful.

Is this a waste of resources? Perhaps, but they aren’t responsible for solving the world’s issues, any they are contributing. What have you done? From what I understand, you could contribute more to the people you’re describing by applying and working for Adobe rather than criticizing them.

I just have a long screwdriver slotted on the push bar. It works great for preventing the pellets from doming.

The comfort and convenience of TWS is hard to beat. The Pixel Buds series A are amazing for the price.

Yep

You can buy a Lenovo X1 carbon from a couple of generations back that still kicks ass for well under $500. I grabbed a Gen 6 with an I5 in it for under $200, slapped a m.2 SSD in it, and now I have an amazing daily driver that I don’t have to worry about.

This game was a giant part of my childhood. I fondly remember playing in the car on late night road trips as streetlights went by.

I still have my DMG, and Donkey Kong is still in the slot. It’s hands down the most nostalgic piece of my past that I still have.

Aldi has a really tasty version that our whole family prefers.

The tldr is the pi foundation hired a former police officer and helped to provide hardware for ‘legal’ surveillance without a warrant. They then doubled down when confronted about it.

‘ice cold milk.’ Could be talking about a glass of dairy, or a delightful dessert.
