I own a Pixel 7 and although not ideal, it's certainly better than most of the phones out there for me. The only downsides of daily driving a Pixel are battery drain and overheating. Granted, I live in a rather cold climate so I imagine it being not the most useful piece of tech for the folks near the equator...

It's been confirmed that Pixel 10 will finally get a non-exynos chip, so perhaps it can indeed become the pinnacle of Android smartphones, who knows.

This scenario still requires Google to play their cards right, however, but there's hope.

You are absolutely correct, you got both of them right!

I was disappointed they didn't actually restrict the app for router devices.

After 3 years of using MacOS as a main OS, I am more than convinced it was indeed the intention.

bro be spitting fax, on God

Embrace freedom, change the habits, eat the rich!! /s

They actually did for some people a couple of months ago.

You are much better off using a Pixel with GrapheneOS as far as privacy and security are concerned. Believe it or not, Google Pixels are the best smartphones to use de-googled. Truly outstanding.

Look up why Graphene team only supports these phones, it's on their FAQ page.

lol

Which is why I prefer NixOS (I use NixOS btw)

Definitely try it, using NixOS after the "horrors" of Arch feels much more secure. Your system is basically unbreakable, not unintentionally, at least.

NixOS user spotted!

Say whatever you want, Snowden's a fucking hero for sharing this.

AFAIK, you can flash a de-googled version of Android TV on some devices, look up LineageOS' website.

You never watched the interview, did you?

This sounds awesome, but what authorities exactly are the correct ones? What happens when I want to report THE authorities?

This might be what you are looking for.

It is not uncommon to find "Wine wrappers" to actually work better than on Windows itself.

At this point I am not sure we are talking about the same thing. The picture in the post clearly represents European trams. I have not witnessed one argument with a driver despite using European public transport on a daily basis.

Self-driving future doesn't seem to be that far away, and I imagine it to be even simpler on rails. Either way, the key is to get people off those nasty things they call "cars" and take it from there.
