honestly, Nintendo consoles were based. From the DS through the Wii U, all the abilities and tweaks you could make were amazing.
My favorite handheld will always be the DSi as it's the most nostalgic.
I would, but I'm worried that somehow I can get in trouble for harassing a government official.

Under the FISA expansion, what exactly should I worry about, how do I manage privacy?
Hello everyone, with the unfortunate passing of the FISA expansion, I was left with a few questions. I tried to research it, and to me, it seems like they are beefing up surveillance with routers and ISPs (correct me if I'm wrong.) Aside from having businesses stalk you when you use their WiFi (connected with ISPs.)
And if that's the case, should I just always use a VPN? And furthermore, shouldn't you have always used a VPN prior to this anyways?
That's why I'm confused because I already thought that other businesses were collecting data and our ISPs were already sending our data away, so I'm partially confused about what the real change here with FISA is.
Any clarification and advice is greatly appreciated, thank you.
He likely doesn't want to get too involved with social media. Stuff easily consumes you. Twitter is just good to reach out to people, which is kinda bad that Twitter got that big.
How effective do you believe that a Faraday cage would be against this mechanism?
It's honestly Doublethink.
Whenever Google gets exposed for bad practices, people ignore it. And they believe this stuff is good or don't care.

I saw this on infinity for Reddit earlier, I don't know if there's a workaround for this or not.
I think cancer is going up due to all the unhealthy crap we are exposed to. We all have cancer cells in our body, but I believe that some things we consume may aggravate those cells. Like we don't eat as healthy as people once did.
Many of us consume fast food, soda, candy, and other junk more often than we should, and I think that constantly eating this processed food that we aren't really meant to eat could have this type of effect.
Lifestyle changes are one a reason. We used to be more active, and be out in the sun more which generates greater Vitamin D exposure. Having an indoor job, such as an office job, would definitely result in lower T levels without enough exercise and Vitamin D.
Another thing to consider is the abundance of microplastics. They are endocrine disruptors, and are shown to hurt T levels as well. Along with modern food processing ingredients like soy letchin showing to hurt testosterone levels, it really seems like we created this environment.
On another note, we know testosterone is intrinsically involved in voice maturity and facial hair, which partially leads me to believe it's responsible for more of your appearance.
When me and my friends were in our final years of highschool, we noticed how all the younger kids looked like elementary kids, and we looked younger than the older kids when they were our age then.
There are a few studies showing that there's correlations between testosterone and, well looking older, so that's been my guess for a while now.
In seriousness? Likely testosterone levels going down. Due to life style changes and chemical exposures.
They do work for other companies, Telegram says on the app they're texting my telegram specifically. I can't change it to SMS.
How can you clean your phone number (2nd upload)
Hello everyone! I have a small issue. I wanted to remove all media accounts associated with my phone number. One account to remove was Telegram, I deleted the app long ago, but never my account.
So, I downloaded Telegram again, tried to log in, and it keeps texting the login code to my number on Telegram, it won't do SMS. And I have no other telegrams sessions anywhere else where I can log in. I'm stuck, can't log in to delete it.
I went on their support website to file a complaint, and they never got back to me. Is there another way for me to delete my actual account if they won't let me log back on?
I guess I have 2 questions at this point, either how can I deal with Telegram, and or is there way to clean my phone number of all accounts at once? Any ideas are appreciated.
TL;DR Can't log in to Telegram, want to delete account, how can I achieve this?
You'd need to always keep your phone in airplane mode, and maybe either use a mobile provider that works horrible with GrapheneOS, or change your mobile strength to like 3G, you can completely lose calls and texts when in airplane mode at that point, you'll never get them, maybe you can stop the Pegasus attack.
Or, don't use a phone number, rely on encrypted messaging. But if you must have some number, you could have 2 phones, one with just the phone number and sim card, then the other phone with Signal so your private phone shouldn't be compromised.
Those are the only ways I can think of trying to resist it.
Well, you could do WiFi calls and text with a VPN, use Signal, or Signal with a VPN?
Any possibility that these are apps or sites that you use while using that VPN? And maybe DDG is also blocking it? I don't use any of that stuff so I'm just taking a guess.
That's actually a surprise to me, seeing how they wouldn't let people sideload. Can't believe the app store would allow pirates.
I know Google has made pixel tablets, and I heard you can get GrapheneOS on at least 1 of them. So there's that.
You can't change the email you use? Are you open to deleting those accounts, and maybe making new ones? Or saying goodbye to those platform's for good? Customer service could help you change emails, perhaps.
There's free good quality music apps on F-Droid, a sort of catalogue where you can side load apps. That's Android, power to the user!

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone knew of a FOSS editing app to use on PDFs, just to add text and and mark things out, I tried GNU image editor but it just works on images exclusively. Any ideas are appreciated, thanks.
FOSS online equivalent to Google Docs?
Hi everyone. Me and a friend wanted to work on an online document together yet didn't want to use Google Docs. Are there services that allow us to work together? Thank you.
What PC is like the "thinkpad" of PCs?
Hello. Many of the older thinkpads were regarded as being peak for the ability to repair and easily see into them at both the hardware and software levels.
I was wondering, what PC, if any, is similar in this regard? Aside from building your own PC ofc. Any opinions are welcome. Thank you.
Fossify Messenger vs. QKSMS
Hi. I wanted to replace my stock SMS app and was wondering which app is likely more suitable for use. Fossify is receiving more development and is more light weight yet most people that I've seen recommend QKSMS as it has more features. Any opinions? Thanks.
FOSS app like google scan?
Hello everyone, I have a few old pictures I was hoping to get scanned onto my phone, I know that Photo Scan by Google does a good job, but I was hoping for a libre alternative to use first. Would anyone know of any?
Worst case scenario, I don't give Photo Scan internet access, but was still wondering what else is out there. Thanks!
Will Google Play Services compromise my privacy on GrapheneOS?
Hello everyone. I have a separate profile for my proprietary apps on GOS, yet some of these apps don't work, so I'm thinking I need to enable Google Play Services.
Was wondering if this could hugely compromise my privacy, and if I could uninstall GPS later on. Thank you!
