The speedrunning of enshittification.

But also yeah propaganda was always the goal.

And yes, marketing is a form of propaganda.

Welcome to the Democratic Church of America.

I misread this as “I am 9”.

And I thought, “well, I’ve got bad news for you, pal”.

Astroturfing is only allowed from premium accounts.

I actually don’t know a lot about those models.

They last so long I tend to skip a few models at a time, and only bought my pixel 8a about 6 mths ago. So there’s been no need to research.

I’m sure there’s some good reviews or spec comparisons online. They tend to be excellent phones though.

I’m a tech snob but also a cheap bastard and they always fall into that middle part of the Venn diagram.

You can get a pixel in the “a” series for a lot cheaper than the main series or pro.

I always run them and they last forever.

For example a pixel 8a is just under $400 full price.

Graphene also runs better than android due to lack of bloat, so you won’t notice the lower specs quite as much.

Graphene is probably overkill for a simple (commercial) privacy use case but it seems to be the best for confounding google and also stability. So that’s why so many people use it.

And there’s not much in terms of downsides.

Just go to the grapheneOS website and it will walk you through it.

I have a medium competency with this kind of thing and the actual install was shockingly easy. Took about 15 mins.

You just change a couple of settings on your phone (it walks you through everything), plug it in and then press some buttons in sequence on their site.

Just make sure you back up everything you need from the phone first.

This is how AI accuracy is also measured.

It’s really shit for the customer, AND it’s cheap?

Double win!

For me, it’s “pwease” because I like that sub relationship.

This is a wonderful combination with the no jury trial thing.

“Suspicious internet activity” and then a judge throws you away for 6 months with zero effort.

Sounds like a great deterrent/ enforcement system to me.

“Here are 4000 images we took of quadrupeds within 5 miles of your house.”

Does anyone have an unpaywalled version or the text?

I have zero information about what’s going on.

Also maybe there’s someone else who covered it?

None of the usual paywall removers seem to work on it.

“Hey officer. This guy understands videos in Spanish and seems really interested in Latina content creators. Go grab him”

They’re holding the food and shelter hostage.

Shouldn’t you be busy working for food and shelter tokens from them?

I don’t know about fastest. Don’t Japan hold that title?

I’m just talking about the scale of them, and the average speed that they can manage (very important when looking at the scale of distances to travel).

Super weird. I didn’t know about that.

Probably the state invested so heavily in the sector that they created a bit of a bubble. Then to have them slow down suddenly would pop it.

I think it’s wasteful but not as bad as having not enough houses for everyone and a housing market that’s sucking most of the populace dry.

With a bit of innovation, maybe the market will find a use for all the apartments.
