This is for emergencies, during riots and such because it can take down drones and disrupt communication. I think people should figure out for themselves if their use case is morally permissible and worth the risk. I’m just sharing info that’s readily available. Also owning this is legal where I live and I’m not even sure we have a word for felony.
Have Android phone
Don’t bother signing into your Google account
Download Canta, Shizuku and f-droid apk and install
Use canta to uninstall every Google app that isn’t strictly required
Chrome, Gmail, Drive
Weather, Launcher, News
Clock, Keyboard, even the damn Calculator
Everything. Canta actually tells you what is and isn’t safe
Replace everything with open source alternatives as you go (don’t forget about a keyboard alternative)
Get APKUpdater to install and update apps that aren’t on f-droid from various sources you can choose
Have hastily degoogled Android phone
Precisely!
I must say that if we people in commerce ever become slightly unwell then, fortunately or unfortunately as you like, we simply have to overcome it because of business considerations.
No that one was just meant as a general lifehack 😅
What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
YEAH! Oh you mean the chocolate?
Not to be confused with millions worth of Dollar
Oh good to know. Pretty sure owning them is fine in Germany but distribution or actually using them will still get you in trouble.
It eliminates the need for a lot of back and forth communication if you need to calculate stuff in space. Maybe scanning satelite images for example. And it shaves off valuable seconds if you - say - want to launch something from orbit to Earth. Most air defense mechanisms are not all that effective against stuff that comes straight down at a high speed and the idea of orbital weapons has been circulating for a while now (if not realised without public knowledge).
Btw these little DIY 2.4 GHz jammers are also very handy to have just in case. As long as you get them out the way before you set off the EMP generator 😅
I once commented on Reddit that I’d suck the dev of vlc off until he kicks his feet and curls his toes for providing us with such well made software. Someone tagged him because of course he’s on Reddit too and he just replied “I’m in France :)”. I still think about that sometimes.
Another thing that used to interrupt my reading flow. I’ve since come around though.
I’m more used to it now but it still interrupts my reading flow because I anticipate that a third party will be mentioned and yet the enumeration stops after two.
That’s interesting. Especially because like I said it’s not a thing in German. They used to use just an ampersand to be space efficient. I like those unique sorts of quirks. Reminds me of the “etaoin shrdlu” thing. Also no German equivalent.
If “stones per gallon” can be a measurment unit then so can “their per China”
Bruh we might need another pandemic to take the edge off
Worse
