Why? To know more to train AI and sell your info to third parties. To spearhead ads to you.

Why an earth would a big tech company say no to gather more info on its users? Show me the first one

what you maybe forget here is the use case for people and businesses who can not send the data to 3rd party due to privacy/contractual reasons. This is what I'm looking at, we're bound by strict policies for data sharing outside of our premises.

> You don't own your fiber connection. So why try to own another rapidly depreciating, expensive, and annoying asset?

Single mode fiber can serve for tens of years without problems and push the fastest speeds available today. I do not understand this comparison.

Well, I didn't know it before I bought tesla (and have since sold it), but it's really convenient to pair the phone to the car and let it act as a key. I never had to worry about getting the keys, I just took my phone and it opened the doors.

Also I have to say, setting charge times remotely is mighty handy, if one pays the market/pool prices for electricity which fluctuate from hour to hour.

TI-86 is the one in my case. We had to buy it in high school, and I used it so much in high school and in university after (I still have it in a box), that it's the only calculator I've since used. I absolutely have to have a TI emulator on my phone, and have paid for multiple ones along the years.

I use my emulated TI-86 every other day, and prefer it to any other UI I've seen on calculators on phones.

When I have a laptop available, I of course use excel or wolfram alpha for anything demanding, but when on the go, I like my emulated TI-86.

Pilot here.

While I definitely approve this and consider the limit to be one too many, I wish ecigarettes would be rather the target as soon as possible. Those are dangerous, and lately the most potential culprit for lithium related problems aboard.

It's no regulation, per se. ICAO sets up rules and its up to member states to create regulation based on that.

Well, fuck snaps, that is.

Even though I've used ubuntu since 6.04, fuck snaps. I'm still stuck on Ubuntu even after 20 years. But fuck snaps.

How's the dex? It's close to the only thing I miss from samsungs, which I used good 15 years I guess before hopping onto grapheneos.

One of the greatest things I miss from Samsung after some time with GrapheneOS is the dex.

The current provided desktop mode is rudimentary, and mostly working. But it has so much potential. We could have all in one device with us, and just plug that into an usb-c dock. Or watch things on big screens in hotels if a mouse emulation on touchscreen like samsung would be supported.

Or, as Samsung already has created this, maybe that could be somehow ported to GrapheneOS via some 3rd party patcher? I'd really like to use samsung clock and gallery, as well, as those are quite a lot better than AOSP ones.

I like GrapheneOS, and the promise of it. Just a few minor things and it would be awesome instead of really good.

depends on work apps.

I've only found two apps that dont work on graphene so far (google wallet and x). Decided I'd be able to survive without them.

There's some road ahead here.

I enrolled my graphene into my company's intune, and I had to inject the play services via adb during the enrollment, as of course the graphene doesnt have play services available in the work profile -> unable to enroll it completely without injecting some apk's there

Taking their country? Unlikely.

I sincerely hope I'm wrong, but if 89,95M of 90M people are just looking at from the sides for years, I'm still not seeing that this would motivate people to revolt. Same thing as with the young elephant growing up with the chains.

I think I should refrain from commenting political posts, but this one has a possibility of being something major.

However, looking at how the US president has abused power, silenced those who are against the draft dodging crybaby and his league of human trafficking millionaires, I feel this is yet another try to move focus from US domestic probs to something else. I see no honesty or greater reason for this attack or justification for it. While I'm no fan of Iran's autocratic regime, US is slipping towards into being one, as well.

US president has now active war operations in Venezuela, soon lightning the Cuba situation on fire as well, not to forget planning to take Greenland and Canada, too.

That's honestly not bad for the president of peace. Nobel committee should take a look at nominating this guy for a peace prize

While interesting (as I'm an airline pilot), is this hacker-news-interesting, per se?

I come here to read news about Doom running on a cucumber, not piloting stuff.

Good, agreed. Let's just hope Anthony will read this.

Also, speaking of trust, return the "never sell your data" to the FAQ.

I tried just yesterday with latest firefox and fedora, screen sharing didn't work out of the box. Only screen sharing by creating a virtual display worked, not sharing the current screen nor tab.
