Appreciate your post, nice to see people having level takes for something. I normally go through all my browser settings anyway during setup so a lot of the technical issues people were having I see as nonissue, UNLESS it gets added in during an update (where I wouldn’t notice) and is opt-out, not opt-in. It’s a good recommend for new users who aren’t super tech savvy and just need a plug and play.

Thank you kindly

Tried to find the original to explain to someone but I couldn’t

Ghost in the Shell is closer than you might think.

Got one of his phones a while back and it was just a pixel 4 with lineageOS and I think MicroG on it. If you’ve got the funds listen to that other guy and get a modern pixel with graphene

Get thee a kitchen scraper, helps get a lot of gunk off without using the sponge or your fingernails.

On the spectrum of convenience vs privacy I think this is closest to the sweet spot on the side of convenience. Use a commercial “monitor” (TV that doesn’t require smart features to work). The closest to the middle on the side of privacy is setting a PC up with your TV logged in to all your streaming services.

Do you run your own commands or use a program? I recently started using Windows Shut Up! and Winhance and that appears to be a good one two combo for mostly stripping bloat and blocking telemetry.

Guns and ammunition

Physical media and ways of accessing it (usb disc drive for example)

Older laptops and vehicles if you’re in the market

Finally bought Tactics Breach Wizard or whatever it’s called when it went on sale for the nth time on Steam and it’s been a hoot. Funny dialogue, awesome art/concept, and I enjoy the gameplay immensely. Turn based tactics where each “room” of a mission is a level. Blends magic with the military industrial complex. Very cool, highly recommend.

For real? That concept phone really checked a lot of boxes for me haha

You think Nothingphone might be next candidate for GOS? Their concept phone shipped without an OS at all.

Winhance can help you delete Copilot and other MSlop that may not be completely accessible via add/remove programs.

¡he’ll ye!

I’m trash at SSB but still one of my fav maps

Why OpenOffice instead of LibreOffice?

Amen

It’s the story of how McDonalds became big. Think it’s called The Founders or something

Needs a switch
