I can’t speak to beef, but there is more to Android security than what Google provides. That’s what Graphene is for, to make Android even more secure through hardening various attack surfaces and introducing other completely new security features. If that weren’t the case, Graphene wouldn’t be necessary on Pixels because Google does monthly security patching for them.

It’s also at the firmware level, which Google does not provide except for on their own hardware, and on top of that Google phones are some of the only ones capable of providing some security feature at the hardware level. This seems to be the main thing the Graphene team is trying to point out.

Graphene is centered around security. I’ve heard bad things about Fairphone in that regard - the Graphene team even talks about them in the replies on that thread.

Sure, I was trying to correct the statement that it’s not possible at all though.

You can still torrent with Mullvad, it’s just gonna be slower because you have less peers. But it’s still 100% doable. They don’t block torrenting entirely…

This article isn’t about that, so clearly you did not read the article.

Do you choose to use roads? Do you choose to shower? Do you choose to use power? Do you choose to use sewer? Do you choose to use public parks? Do you choose to use libraries? Do you choose to use anything subsidized by the government?

Then you’re choosing to pay for it. Million dollar infrastructure projects cannot be funded without taxes. It’s better if the load is balanced. This is why billionaires should be footing the majority of the bill, so you don’t have to cover their share. You should reframe your question to: why do billionaires steal money from us by not paying their fair share?

I use hall effect on the daily and have had none of the issues you’re discussing. I suppose time will tell, but I much prefer hall effect.

They could have easily fixed it with hall effect sticks. That is a proven and inexpensive solution, but Nintendo prefers to sell more joycons and create waste, it’s that simple.

Question about this since I’ve never been asked - they asked for a photo copy of your diploma? I landed my tech job without them even checking or asking for my college diploma, let alone my high school diploma (both of which I would be willing, but it’s strange to me)

I’ve noticed a lot of them think that tornadoes are being sent by “DNC billionaires” to legitimize “leftist climate change”. They think that solar geo engineering is the cause. Anything to not admit climate change is making severe weather more frequent and more intense.
