  • I tried to switch from iPhone to Pixel 10 Pro Fold with GrapheneOS, but I needed RCS to work. Unfortunately, even installing Google Messages and allowing it permissions wouldn’t allow RCS to work for more than 36 hours before I had to go through the whole install and allow process again. I would be willing to cut off all Google services, even banking apps and whatnot, but I need RCS to work. I’m unfortunately an American and cannot reliably expect my friends and family to use an app other than iMessage to text, so I need RCS.

    Will Motorola provide some GrapheneOS compatible RCS client? If so, I am likely to switch.










  • Well FIFA players are mostly just gamblers so that checks out. The contingent of non-gamblers should be big enough to sway the rest of the industry if they really did stop spending though. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s going to happen. Most big games are attempting to shift their players slowly into gambling addiction too. Roblox, Fortnite, Overwatch, they’re all attempting to hook players on gambling. We need regulation to more heavily restrict those games from having anything related to gambling in them before we can expect players to bail (or stop spending) in large enough numbers to make anything change.



  • Let me just check with you that i’m interpreting this comment correctly: I accidentally informed you of a Linux platform that is highly interesting to you and fits your exact use case? Well great! happy to help. I work for a HW OEM that is “IGEL Ready” so I’m familiar with their platform and it’s use cases, but I don’t use it myself.

    so, bit of a non sequitur here but: I’m interested in other work if you are familiar with some roles looking for a “solutions architect” type person and want to chat about that sorta thing in the DMs.




  • lol I’m glad people are enjoying what could easily be considered a shitpost.

    I must be honest: I did not consider looking at the rules before posting. I just read them now and found that I am not violating them unless you strictly consider the implication of rule 6 to be real history.

    Anyway yeah I’m not looking to flood the sub with fictional leopard-eaten faces. There’s a strong possibility I never post here again just because that’s not really my jam but I do enjoy the sub! I’m thrilled people are enjoying the levity here!
