I got an 8a. Almost the same exact features as the 9a but for much less money. Battery lasts all day easily for me, and runs smooth as butter. Storage is something I have to personally get used to as I only got 128gb and came from a 256gb s23 ultra but I’ll be ok.

Cameras are okish but you aren’t getting this for the cameras in the first place, but its more due to the lack of ai tuning in the cameras with graphene as I took some test shots with both my phones and they where on par with each other.

I bought my 8a used in immaculate conditions for $280 and its great for me.

I might upgrade to a 10 pro if I can get one with a sim tray later and can run graphene

Because they probably use an AI to scan your profile

I have a local Gitea hosting that backs up to a private gitlab account on their servers.

Dammit, just got a new keyboard on my phone and it’s annoying.

Like middle management if you want to get extra spicy and yet still subtle

Fuck no. I don’t need to record my life to share it with the world. Even if people would be interested in it, why do I need to be sharing so much of my life.

Yep, got one arriving today

He’s going to weaponize this to go after Sanders, Warren, AOC and the like.

…And we’re continuing our march to 1930s Germany

EDIT: I wouldn’t be surprised that he used this as an excuse to kick out all Democrats from government, just like evil mustache man did.

I don’t think so necessarily, look at the Vikings. Sure, they would pillage towns to survive, but even though they discovered America way before Columbus, they didn’t go in and invaded and killed almost every native there like Columbus did. I think the colonization is more of an ideology that came upon some groups that happened to be led by sociopaths (i. e. The Romans, The Greek, and The Mongols).

Hell, look historically at the Incas, the Chinese empire, and the mongols under Ghengis Kahn, none of them weren’t white but they where all colonizers as well, just small fry to the Romans who then turned to the English, Spanish, and I think Dutch.

The other factor is religion, Christianity was a common factor in all these white colonizers who came to America. Buy the real reason was to find gold to fund their expansions. If Columbus wouldn’t have seen any gold jewelry on the chief of that first village and found no other precious metals, who knows what would have happened, maybe other Europeans might have visited later again, but it could have been with a much less colonizer mentality and more of simply exploration.

My bad, dunno how I could confuse my authors

Same for H. G. Wells- The Time Machine book in the part where the traveler meets the Morlocks and the Eloi.

EDIT: Got my authors mixed up, it wasn’t Jules Verne.

Shoot every single nuke to space and detonate all nukes in space.

Maybe, but only if I become a dictator to remove and spread my power to smaller government organizations. Basically instead of having one source of power, I dilute the government into multiple governments that also police each other and not one of them have power to govern over all others. Additionally, police and military would be the only “governments” that have slightly less governing power than the rest because while we still need police and military I don’t want them to use their weapons to muscle their way over the other governments.

Note: I am not saying it’s perfect or covers all cases, but I believe that having a central point of power is the biggest issue with a dictator becoming corrupt and this applies even to non-dictators (hint-hint). Maybe I am wrong and I invite polite discourse on the subject.

Makes me want a Graphene OS phone more than ever. Fuck Google

Also, no It’s not about the security vulnerability, devs already said they can work around this issue. It’s more because Google doesn’t deserve anyone’s data, much less mine.

Later that night…

The 15 farts Orchestra! 😁💨

Doesn’t matter (to me at least), fuck a $1500 phpne

Ok, so it doesn’t exist because of the training data, couldn’t that be achieved by the self hosted users sharing anonymous training data? Or maybe sharing curated playlists to help the suggestions for others? I totally understand some may see it as a privacy concern, but since the ultimate privacy is becoming disconnected to everyone and everything, there might be a level of sharing that can be achieved where users could feel comfortable.

Note, I just woke up and this makes total sense to me right now, so don’t hate me please.

Peruvian and Mexican

Isn’t Spotify just using an AI? Couldn’t one self host an AI that plugs into the music library and makes recommendations?

I have a 2D

The D is for you babe…
