Appreciate you 🫡

I wonder what else the desktkps see. Where do you get ironfox?

Nah man you are not arguing in good faith. Linux has come on leaps and bounds since I first tried it in school and it is now my desktop OS. It is cumbersome but worth it. If it was only available as a terminal or CLI or whatever I would not be using it.

At a certain point what you areadvocating isnt an alternative so much as advocacy for advocacy sake. Just telling people to leave a product is the same as saying the alternative isnt an alternative.

Send me the money and I will get it for you

I lack all sorts of understanding. I want it all to work perfect and be private, I am the illiterate consumer.

But sure I could go back to te stoneage so, are you offering an alternative or not?

Its easy to tell people to value privacy, which I do, but the reality is that to encourage privacy being adopted you need to offer or incentivise its adoption.

It affects you if you dont, your number in my phone is scraped all the same. Your secure emails land in my insecure inbox.

Buy linux phone

Try to figure out how to make it work

Where are my apps

Why is the camera shit?

Profit, I can purchase stamps to communicate with those on the other side of techtopia.

Jokes aside the curve is too steep, feature parity lacking and network effects too strong. I would like to but where is the on ramp? Do I have to go back to blurry slow cameras and no face unlock or fingerprint? NFC? Car projection? Can I get a sandboxed whatsapp?

Cannot wait. Hope it has a decent camera.

Also I’d flash that shit myself when it arrives too.

The reality is that they are powerful but if they were to become actice participants in some hypothetical war the governments could freeze and withold funds with the swipe of a pen.

There are a lot of regs around the freedom of funds and stopping that if there is a legitimate national security risk. The US is doing it right now with funds provided from the EU to purchase weapons for Ukraine. The US is not fulfilling orders because they blew their load murdering innocent children in Iran.

I must try these, the only one I found was fennec, it did give accurate gyro information.

Whatever it is they are selling will suck, which sucks because AI could be great. I like some of its usecases, granted that is because the alternatives are enshittified.

Because firefox give gyro data and there is no reason to. Same with screen density.

Its crazy, the accurately deduced I was sitting browsing because of the gyro. Combine with location/time and all their data they likely know all of us individually at this point?

Cant wait for businesses to have websites again.

Interesting, is it called the camera processing pipeline? Id be interested in reading some more and seeing if there is a foss project

Its just slow and blurry on pixel 10 pro

Ridiculously accurate forme, tried across multiple browsers.

Gyro, screensize, battery are all causes for concern. I have firefox with ublock and ss and it was able to see all except the gpu and battery.

But are the sensors not third party, generally Sony or zeiss?

Pure pain, similar with graphene, the pixel camera is a selling point and it is sbite on graphene.

There if a foss pixel camera app that does a good job though

Whybis the camera such an issue for linuxphones? The few I checked had untested or partial results for camera.
