There was a time when I tried cheap China phones, the newest and best, but from the cheap class. Some where good, some were a desaster.

Now I usually buy phones that have been in fashion 2-4 years before. All good.

What does China achieve

The typical bully’s satisfaction.

When some natural disaster destroys your house and all your neighbor’s too, and some of your people are dead and you are heavily injured, what are we going to hear from you?

what do i do?

Read the lemmy user manual I guess?

why?

To know the first steps.

This app manager app works for me (but I haven’t tried with apps bought on Google)

The answer is probably that most of them don’t exist.

USB charging is the worst example ever. Ever ever.

It took the EU something like 15 years and several laughable attempts until they somehow made it.

My wife has not kissed me this morning, and there is no explanation… wait…

“Required”? That’s looking at it from a funny angle. Descent is not usually lacking. Don’t you have parents?

Descent simply decides which citizenship you have, at first. That’s all. But if you feel you “require” a different descent, then I don’t know… :)

if you switch off location services

…then no app gets a location anymore.

The use of mandatory minimums effectively vests prosecutors with powerful sentencing discretion. The prosecutor controls the decision to charge a person with a mandatory-eligible crime

Wrong problem. Minimums and maximums are a bad workaround for this.

Obviously the prosecutor should not be the only person who can decide which crime to charge, or not to charge, and this decision should not be possible only at the beginning of the proceedings.

In our country the judge can easilly change the exact crime(s), and this is done very often, because it makes everybody’s life easier and the truth is served much better when this decision is made again after all evidence, witnesses etc. have been seen and heard.

Minimums help the judges not only to decide the punishment, also to see in advance which crime is worse than the other crime. Maximums could maybe help in a similar way.

Maximums are needed when stark punishments exist, like torture, death penalty or removing of body parts. These can be limited to specific crimes then.

People shouldn’t have to live in fear of having their entire life upturned or not have access to services and social support just because they have the wrong passport.

Very important aspect! Thank you for mentioning this.

I still have a phone containing Google, and cannot change this situation (maybe with my next phone). Usually, I switch off location services very often and I avoid such tracking apps because all my data goes to Google then.

Would it be advisable to use this at all before I get rid of Google?

No. In our country, the majority bellieves that descent should be the first criterion that decides citizenship, and I belong to that majority. During recent years, it has been made much easier for foreigners to acquire citizenship, so that’s somewhat balanced now.

Congratulations.

In WW3 either you are going to die or you are going to die…

If you want to do this as an ESP project anyway, you don’t need the extra controller.

Fans take a simple PWM signal, which your ESP (or even one of the smallest Arduinos) can create easily.

Then you have an answer for OP.

You need a psycho doc.

if most of the world were under authoritarian regimes instead of liberal democracies?

Well, most of the world is actually under authoritarian regimes and not liberal democracies.

So what is it what you are asking?
