There should be more deals when you click add services.

Understand on the latency possibly being an issue. I did see they have servers in France now. Maybe you could do some ping tests.

Jacked up!

Okay. Everyone is different. If they can point, click and type they can open a terminal and type something simple.

I have to say your car analogy is more difficult.

It’s just a matter of explaining a different process than what they are familiar with to install something. It’s not hard at all after you show/explain. Just different and in my opinion easier than an exe.

If you can open an app you can open the terminal. It’s not a daunting task.

It’s less steps than an exe and automated. Opening the terminal is one click. It’s not like you need to know how to do anything else in there.

It is extremely easy. Open terminal, one command. Done. Your quote ended with “and…” As if there was a lot to type.

“Oh that’s easy. Just open the terminal and type pacman -S firefox” sounds better.

It actually way easier on Linux. Arch just type: pacman -S programName Or yay -S programName

Most distros have a software “store” and it’s just as simple as installing an app on your phone.

If you want something cheap check out RackNerd yearly deals. Last I checked they still have listings for black Friday and other old deals once you’ve made an account. I got a server for like $12 a year with 5tb monthly bandwidth. I have 3 servers total with them and haven’t had a problem for the 3 years I’ve been using them.

Yeah. Which one did you go with?!

That’s understandable. I only use an app to generate the codes

What about Intel ME, Microsoft Pluton, the one for AMD. The secret chips that have direct access to your hardware. Basically a blackbox. Same with cellphones. SoC.

Wonder when he will announce X becoming a bank

US Mobile has been really good for me

For now

I know you didn’t ask for alternatives, but since you have a Pixel I thought I’d at least mention it.

Have you tried GrapheneOS?

My battery life is amazing with it and I’ve never had any overheating issues.

Edit: my local credit union app works fine. You can even relock the bootloader after you install graphene.

You can put brother printers on continuous mode and they will keep printing. When the quality starts to look bad, take the toner out and shake it. Put it back in. Volia.

There is a fork now

Is it really even secure? Are we to trust these companies at their word? E2E “encryption” that goes thru their servers, not open source, SoCs that’s the real Admin of your device that has direct access to everything including “private” keys.

It has nothing to do with me making anything “secure”, because modern consumer tech is incapable of that. but i have my own domain, currently using MXRoute as the provider(because its cheap). Have my own XMP server(Snikket) to chat with friends even tho I can’t fully trust it because of how all devices are compromised. Think Intel Management Engine, AMT, Pluton and whatever the heck is going on with the blackbox chip in every smartphone. There is no true privacy with tech.
