headphone jack, NFC, and microSD

The holy trinity.

I need to move on from my LG (RIP) G6 soon due to battery life and apps becoming unsupported so I’ve been shopping around.

Right now I have a headphone jack, NFC, MicroSD, FM Radio and 4k video recording. I’ll probably have to give up the radio at least if not more to get a well rounded phone.

The G6 came out 7 years ago but it feels like most new phones are a downgrade in comparsion.

I just take 5,000 iu of vitamin D and skip the Sun business most days.

Good god Lemon.

Like, why dont people who can just move?

Kind of a catch-22.

America is the best country in the world, if you’re rich. Once someones earning a lot and saved up move to New Zealand money the appeal isn’t as strong for most.

immediately go for northern europe

Oof. That’s akin to moving there in 1938. Bit of a risky proposition to say the least.

I wouldn’t move there now if allowed and I don’t even have illegally move to Mexico money.

I remember when I did the switch in 2008 and never looked back.

I wasn’t far behind you. My first laptop around that time came with Vista installed. Didn’t take long for me to switch Ubuntu after that, haven’t been back to Windows since.

It did. Our one national public channel (PBS) aired it often. Along with Are You Being Served and Allo Allo.

Keeping up Appearances meme out of left field 😂

I’m surprised there’s enough overlap in fanbases for this to have 100+ votes but I’m here for it.

Wow that was a great read. Leif comes across as very perceptive on multiple fronts here.

Unfortunately I think his warning about the internet ending up like “souped up TV” is looking more likely by the day.

Right now it’s quite easy to force a site or service to bend the knee to outside pressure. No matter how right or wrong that pressure is. People will go after hosting and ISPs, if that doesn’t work they’ll tie people up directly in the courts. You must provide real contact info and be willing to play ball if you operate on the old web.

Embracing encryption is the only thing I can think to do to avoid that. Which honestly kind of sucks, because while true anonymity would save sites like Omegle who act in good faith and police themsevles in a reasonable manner, others that don’t will also be protected. I think the pros out weigh the cons with anonymity but that is a hard pill to swallow for many.

Oof. Yeah I’ve been there, I finally said enough was enough after a certain NSFW monkey video destroyed my homepage years ago.

Now I keep on top of my watch history and my recomendations are much better.

Thankfully you can stop it. Go to your watch history and remove videos that are messing up your recommendations.
