Damn, y’all have so much stuff. I kinda put my faith in the internet and hoped that civilization doesn’t collapse and torrent stuff whenever I want to watch them.

001100010010, 1 year ago to asklemmy in What is a beautiful concept or idea that continues to blow your mind?

The butterfly effect. The phenomeon that tiny seemingly insignificant changes can result in massively different outcomes. Someone out there could read this post and get distracted and leave home for work/school/shopping a bit later than they would’ve and avoid a major accident. But conversely, someone could also get distracted by this post while crossing the road and… you know… die…

Fascinating, yet terrifying at the same time.

No my password is not in reverse, it’s in inverse. Hackers are so dumb, when I’m already playing 5d chess. 🤓

Shhh… It’s the secret to time travel! Or at least 1/3 of it.

I’m gonna crosspost my comment from the original post:

I’m guessing your instance admins didn’t defederate from exploding-heads.com. You can either ask your admin to defederate, or move to an instance that has defederated them.

Um… I dont think that’s a password manager…

Yes that’s true, but I’ve heard from others that the person involved has since stepped down from Graphene OS development, so it should be safe from now on.

You can use the web version and hold on to your phone even longer 😉

If you buy budget phones, don’t be surprised they stop working soon after the warranty expires. I had a Samsung Galaxy A32 and just a few days after the 1 years mark, the camera lens started to fall out, even when glued back together, the image quality degraded because of exposure to dust and moisture. As to the camera, there is a huge difference between image quality as the phone price goes up. If you get a flagship, the phone camera is just as good as an actual camera. Flagships aren’t really that expensive if you wait a bit for prices to drop. Android phones goes on sale within a few months of release. You can get an Unlocked Google Pixel 7 128GB for $499 in the US, $100 cheaper than the 2 years older iPhone 12. All phones since Google Pixel 6 have minimum 5 years of security updates, same as Apple. Flagships aren’t that expensive if you wait for sales. Using a Pixel 7 for 5 years is better than buying a $100 phone every year.

It depends. For Graphene OS, there is a web installer that the people who have used it said it was the easiest custom rom they’ve installed. Unfortunately, it only supports for Google Pixels.

For other custom roms… maybe not as easy…

Graphene OS Web Install: grapheneos.org/install/web

But more people using stock roms could potentially mean any exploit is more easily found compared to custom roms. Not saying that’s the case, but it’s a factor to consider.
