Mainly just that one mean it will never be available on any other hardware…

All the others seem like nice to haves rather than requirements to me(the first one is half required , half nice to have “…including full hardware security functionality”), but I guess I might change my mind when I get around to building a Linux phone when I have time to do that when I’m dead… 😅

they should be required to be designed to be safe in the way people actually use them, as opposed to this hypothetical driver who has duct taped thier hands to the wheel…

how does the author find it surprising in the slightest that it’s easy to live without…

3rd party apps were still working ?

Sounds like they’re intentionally setting the barriers to entry too high for anyone other than Google…

Is it just me or does it seem slightly sus that GrapheneOS is only available for Google hardware…

Yeah but they’ll lose that business next quarter, and the current shareholders will have already sold thier shares by the time that’s reported so it doesn’t matter.

Hes quite old: he could drop dead any time …

You seem very optimistic about the state the world will be in when he’s gone… 😅

I think there’s a few options, in order of increasing cost:

• get a really cheap one from ali express or similar
• get an older one that uses a defunct connectivity method
• modify one to remove/replace any telemetry modules
• build it yourself from scratch using parts from ali express or similar
• get a shop to build one for you

It depends how broad their “masculine influencer” definition is…

I think whether it actually matters would depend more on if they’re consuming “masculine influencer” content exclusively , without any concept of other world views.

Until Facebook buys them like they did with WhatsApp…?

a subtle edit resolving a duplicate reference in a way that removes displays from the list of parts that must be replaceable by a layperson with basic tools

That’s fucking significant change, considering probably even more smartphones become ewaste from cracked screens than anything else by a long shot…

Well, can it climb trees?

Could create a playlist of the lessons in jellyfin, iduno if its secure enough to use without a vpn though. Could just save them to a usb drive or laptop instead 🤷

Apple always arrives late to any new tech, doesn’t mean they haven’t been working on it behind the scenes for just as long though…

Also on PC you don’t need to pay a premium for mobile device parts if you have no need for them.

That would also make latency worse and the signal weaker.

Would the small ground starlink dish be able to reach higher orbits? I guess if the satellite is going to stay up longer you could afford to make it’s antennas a bit bigger to mitigate that.

If that happened wouldn’t the Judge just dismiss/banhammer the evidence from the case somehow? (IDK IANAL)
