Yes, that cuts the list down even more.

Hypothetically the hardware could have been modified, but that would take some insane level of a determined attacker to be fabricating modified pixels just to sell them on the used market.

Also unlockable and presumably has well working builds. It’s not just graphene, but just about every Android project it there that’s best supported on pixels. Other manufacturers have a crazy variety of locking schemes and required tools. Each one is a nightmare to support.

This time.

Copper and bronze were common currencies, though. Both as metals and in coins.

Encryption is trivial. Getting a reliable keystream is not.

It all depends on the framing 😁

The federated, foss software stacked network matrix. Right.

Unlikely. I often forget it exists. If I didn’t think about a friend or relative wanting to send a message, I’d probably leave it on a table or something until I need to take a picture or note or look something up. And then it would probably be out of battery.

democratically support the same authoritarianism

Did you see the US election results yet?

And publicity

There’s been years of anti Spotify propaganda. It’s not surprising that it sticks.

Early?

Yes. There are a lot of reasons why any one of us could turn into a high value target at the drop off a hat. If not to a government, then to an organisation or a lone lunatic.

Blocking, yes. Bans can be more, though. When poor opsec gets you defenestrated or shipped to an offshore entertainment facility, it’s a bit more than an inconvenience.

Check Heimdall instead.

One of the worst names ever. Maybe also one of the worst launchers. Otherwise I really like it.

What I noticed right away was: It’s the ugliest hello world ever. It’s the slowest hello world ever. (For a long time it was also the record size hello world at something like 64MB, but that’s later and on a compiler.) And it doesn’t actually run on any platform except one: jre. And most binaries you find only run on one version of that one brand of jre.

Still, not the worst thing for writing web services in in late 90s. Doesn’t matter how slow it starts or how much space it takes. Responding to requests, being familiar to new programmers and living in a sandbox was enough.

Swedish Resident Banana Alien. Why not just go all the way?

I remember a story and pictures where there was a party of some sort and at some point during the night people decided to go get food. Maybe the handiest place was a drive through our maybe it was just one of those ideas, but a fairly considerable number decided to go walk to the nearby drive through. There was a picture of them, in a long single file lined up along the lane.

If she had, we wouldn’t be in this timeline.
