I think the InfoWars entity protected him from personal liability. The assets from that have been seized and sold off in a lot of cases to fund that, but he can spin up new enterprises and has done so and is trying to shift attention there

I’m not saying “don’t use lockdown” or “don’t turn it off”. What I’m saying is in addition to that if you need to unlock it while you’re in the airport then you want it to not be unlockable from that point with biometrics. You want the pin to kick back on by default after it’s been unlocked and relocked.

News stories like this will enable him to rebuild. Stop it!

Focus locally, consider first your own community, first in fact then in metaphor. I mean, focus first on what’s actually going on around you, in person. Not plugged in enough to understand that? There are lots of people who need help. Volunteer with your local food not bombs, outreach group, or food pantry.

Then if you need to consider events outside your community, think about how they would map onto your own community and how people you really know would act and react.

Of course this only works if you’re not a gentrifier or trying to maintain segregation or anything like that. You’ve gotta recognize what you have in common with the guy on the street more than the rich fucks that dominate the news.

They make cars which run on hydrogen which you can get from water but that process is so inefficient they opt to get the hydrogen from natural gas instead thus defeating the entire purpose. Overall we have better tech now than “running a car on water” and doing that doesn’t help the bigger problem of unsustainable use of energy

Do people usually have to pay for things when they destroy them? I don’t think I’ve heard of that generally

Just don’t get caught though. Flee the country, lay low.

Wait I thought gog died or something

There’s a 90s-ass CRT monitor in the background!

ITT: people hating on touchscreens

Also ITT: people pointing out really good reasons to have a touch screen.

You have a right to remain silent but you don’t have a right to lie. This is super important legally. If you’re asked “what is your device pin” and you say nothing you’re OK, but if you say “my pin is 12345” and that’s actually your duress PIN then you can be in trouble for that.

OEM unlocked pixels are getting rare and expensive because of this. We need another solution. We need postmarketos to be brought up to usable

Where have you been for the past 500 years that you think laws weren’t just “made up” before that? Standing here absolutely slapping the “stolen land” sign

The thing with android lockdown is that it turns back off as soon as you unlock it. For something like going to an airport, I would go into settings and disable “use biometrics to unlock” under the biometric settings. Lockdown is more of an “oh shit” button, if you have the time to do it properly make it stick until you’re safe.

I don’t have a dog in the argument you’re in but Jefferson probably didn’t have too good of a grasp on those “self-evident truths” himself when he raped his slave(s? He had more than one slave but I’m only aware of him raping one of them, but probably not just the one though)

His ideas aren’t contradictory, they make perfect sense. He’s a Nazi, in the most literal sense of the word. He wants socialism for White people, endless abundance for the chosen few and endless suffering for anyone else.

Funny how it’s actually the opposite, parents offering too much control, rather than education and understanding, while delegating that education and care to The State and Capital that seeks to exploit, which leaves people unable to care for themselves.

That’s 2¹/5 to you!

The thing stopping me from trying out Linux mobile is autofocus for the camera. I don’t have fairphone 6 money iirc but a solution to that for some of the cheaper devices (e.g. op6) would definitely get me on board trying it. Wish I had the dev hours to commit to it but you know how it is

Why settle? Software is a continually evolving ecosystem and grafting yourself to a certain distribution model or distribution team doesn’t really make sense when you consider that. Some distribution might have the best things for you, today. Tomorrow, another may come along and do it better, or your current distribution may shift to not be to your liking anymore. Be flexible, but don’t change for the sake of change. Change for a good reason.
