It’s not that easy to steer clear of. I’ve bought a couple of books on other topics from Amazon and realized when they arrived that they weren’t worth the cost of the paper they were printed on. It’s easy enough to notice it’s bullshit, it’s harder to avoid spending money and time on them in the first place.
Did you write this commentary? I lost count of the wrong words and other nonsense.
Does no one grammar check or edit articles before publishing anymore?
I don’t believe that for a second. Some specific apps are only on one platform or the other but every app has a ton of alternatives that do the exact same thing.
I’m not sure if you are trolling, shilling, astroturfing, whatnot but either way that argument is disingenuous at best.
That wasn’t an attack on you specifically. Most people don’t need to know nor care if they can unlock the bootloader. We need some kind of federal mandate/law/whatever that says that they have to be unlocked and people can do what they want with the $1k+ devices they buy. It’s not even a question with a pc, you can even buy prebuilt systems with no OS or with linux installed if you choose.
This is why I have been a so called Google fanboy/super fan for what feels like a couple of decades. First nexus and now pixel because I’m guaranteed to be able to install whatever flavor of android exists for whatever phone I am using (if I so choose), I haven’t played with roms in years but it’s an option if I feel like it and I’m considering doing it for my work phone, get that shit running as lean as possible, no need for 99% of the Google apps that come with it.
But, that wasn’t your only choice for a device. Android runs on basically anything and you have plenty of options for devices that let you do what you want with it.
Basically, the bootloader being locked is a manufacturer problem and not an android problem. Buy a different phone, smartphones have fully matured at this point. Grab a pixel 7 or 7 pro for a couple of hundred bucks and make that device your biotch.
This is why I never had anything more than an original ipod classic. Android let’s you do whatever the fuck you want with your own device. Don’t like having Google all over your phone? You can install roms with no Google services and use other app stores.
That’s not how that works. Torrent has been around for decades and none of that actually happens. None of that will ever happen and couldn’t actually be enforced even if it did.
I’m not sure some of you here actually understand how this tech or the world at large actually functions. Plenty of files are shared p2p that aren’t under copyright and it would be damn near impossible to limit people’s ability to connect p2p with others without fundamentally changing how the entire internet is connected and functions.
I’d suggest you look up concepts like zero knowledge encryption. I’d also suggest you look at VPN providers that claim to not keep any logs at all along with proper encryption. I’d also suggest that you look into the number of jurisdictions around the world who don’t give a flying fuck about the dmca.
Actually, no. Even if they trace it back to the provider, if said provider is running little to zero logs and proper encryption, there is no way for the provider to know who is doing the downloading of anything.
It’s also not the movie/game companies doing anything. There are companies that monitor p2p for specific files for TV shows, movies, games, etc and then automatically send a boilerplate cease and desist to whoever owns any ip addresses for said files. Some isps like Google fiber (at one point) just ignored these requests and didn’t pass it on to the end user. Every other isp including VPSs, seedboxes, etc will autoforward the dmca notice and if you rack up enough they will fire you as a customer.
I suggest you and others here check out proton, they have a ton of servers including ones that support p2p. They don’t and can’t tell who is transferring what. If you do a ton of downloading of pirated content, I’d also suggest setting up even a basic seedbox. The one I am currently using takes crypto and doesn’t need any info aside from an email address. They will forward dmca notices and the auto delete the offending content after about 12 hours but if you restart the torrent you can download it again if needed and you can then let it seed for as long as you want.
Plus, if the VPN is setup right, they can’t know exactly what you are downloading or what you are accessing.
Yeah, this doesn’t sound right. I’ve never seen a modem without an ethernet port. I’ve had everything from Verizon dsl in Tampa years ago to various cable providers including twc and now spectrum and as I said, every modem had an ethernet port. You can also add your own router even if it ends up adding an extra nat layer.

Invest in a garmin. I had a few fitbits and they all had issues. I’ve been rocking a fenix 7x for nearly a year now and it’s been rock solid, even outside in the heat doing yard work.
It’s also not toxic and extremely healthy for you. A high protein diet with fat to satiety is literally the healthiest way to eat. Anyone else reading this should look into keto and it’s family of diets like carnivore and others. Find what works for you and you’ll find yourself healthier and happier.
People also lie. Meat is not toxic it’s actually the most efficient source of nutrients versus seeking out multiple sources and having to supplement. That’s what they don’t tell you, you can’t easily get everything you need on a vegan diet, vegetarian with it’s allowance for cheese, sour cream, butter, etc is a bit easier but if you go full vegan it becomes extremely difficult to stay healthy.
Yeah, I’m not surprised by the many many positive effects from low carb high protein. I mentioned the ones I did for any passersby who may need to read it.
I’m glad someone else actually gets it.
For anyone else reading this, after years of doing my own version of keto (before I knew keto was a thing) I notice a difference when I let myself binge on crap food. I feel a lot better in a lot of ways when I eat mostly steaks with a bit of fat on them.
For some tmi, I’ve noticed bigger and stronger erections when I am eating low to no carbs and am heavy on fat and protein and it’s noticeable in the other direction when I have a few sugar/carb heavy days. I’m 42 and my wife and I regularly go at it 2-3x/day and I’ve had plenty of days where I was good for 6 rounds. I wouldn’t be able to do that if I was eating a carb heavy diet and there are a ton of guys younger than me that think a few times a week is pushing it.
This is an oversimplification and downplays just how bad carbs actually are.
It’s extremely easy to overeat/consume carbs, sugar, etc because of how your body reacts to it. On the other hand its extremely hard to overeat protein because you will be full and uncomfortable.
Do yourself a favor and stop using this nonsense argument. It makes you look like a fool and downplays just how bad sugar is for the human body.
