OK, you explained it well to me with the car example. I am not a car person, all I know about them is they can usually move, but I am not really interested to learn more.

I actually thought I was having issues with Debian. I was only getting like 6 - 8 updates when I tried to do them, even after a longer period of time. I kept searching around how to update Debian properly, but found no good answer.
Then something like 2 months later there was a large number of updates at once. So it is working then, huh.

Usually was a problem for me when I used a Chromium bassed browser. Typically works with Firefox.
Also, I typically use AV1 + Opus + WebM for videos, and I found out Apple only allows AV1 playback in browser on devices with hardware acceleration.

“3 days without humans”

Only happens to me on a VPN.

I’ve had some issues yesterday, but it started working. Still works today.

Oh, I see now. Actually a config issue. It should return text/plain. But it’s odd, I recall it working, I literally just copy pasted it from local NGINX config where I recall it working in the past.
I added default_type text/plain; into the location block which now loads normally, and still returns the same 418 code.

Welp, seems like browsers don’t like 418. Edit: Nevermind, I am idiot.

location = /teapot {
                        return 418 "I'm a teapot\n";
                }

5G is fine when comparing with 4G. Just a step up. My issue with them is rather whatever is going on with VoLTE and VoNR. 2G/3G just worked for phone calls, but now you only get that guaranteed by purchasing a phone directly from the carrier. Hell, some carriers even blacklist or whitelist devices just because.
And in Australia phones are now getting blocked completely, even if they worked with VoLTE because the carrier decided they didn’t.. Hugh Jeffrey also made a video about that.

Don’t worry, they’ll get monetized to hell.

This was the reason I stopped consuming it. I am not against porn, I like it, but verifying it is basically impossible. The issues usually boil down to money, same as usual.
Could be someone being forced by an individual.
Could be someone being forced by society (sex work as only way to afford college/healthcare/feeding a kid etc. even though the person feels being destroyed by it).
Could be private recordings posted as revenge.
You can’t really know.
Of course that’s a problem with other professions too, but all that can be done under capitalism is harm reduction. Similar to not buying from Nestle.

I just tried to think of what I can get absolutely ethically. Nothing. Even when thinking of vegetables directly from a farmer, dig in, and pesticides. How do they affect the environment, how were they produced, what happens to packaging. Nothing is 100% ethical. All I can do is try to avoid the worst or unnecessary.

Me :3

I achieve the same by disabling VoLTE and VoWiFi and setting the phone to LTE only in *#*#4636#*#*.

I love these service menus. *#*#3646633#*#* has so much stuff to permanently screw up on some MediaTeks. But also some useful ones like selection of frequency bands, or even specific frequency and cell id.
But yeah, some settings can persist factory reset, and some may even be illegal like Tx tests (verified that it does transmit garbage on selected frequency with SDR) or IMEI change. Not all settings are on all devices, and they may even be partially broken.

But yeah, these settings are don’t touch it for the most part (some are just huge lists of undocumented variables). Some don’t even seem to be resettable from the menu, I mean menus where you select one option, but by default they are unset. And the band mode selection on Moto G54 5G was… interesting. Rather than a nice selection menu, you can type in a number and select to add or remove it from a vector variable for 4G and 5G. Of course, nowhere does it list valid options or give a reset button.

And lastly a thing that serves me as a warning for future, when I was playing around with a leaked service program for some Realtek Ethernet adapter, I found out what eFuse memory is. There is no going back.

but I would never use public transport even if we had it.

Why is that?

2 and 3 check out with me, but 1st point is public transport only. Preferably trains + trams.
Although buses have the advantage that I can sit in the front where I can see the road, and they also tend to be less illuminated so I can see outside at night.
I wish there were dark carriages. Coach buses will have a few blue LEDs near the floor, but a train has to come with full sun worth of light.

From a deal on racknerdtracker.com (so RackNerd as the name suggests).
But their panel is a bit limited. If you want a custom OS that isn’t provided, you have to open a ticket with them to get an ISO mounted. You can also boot into recovery environment, but that is outdated minimal installation of Debian 9 without working APT. I was still able to use it to install Arch Linux from bootstrap image though. I just had to decompress it on my PC, create a temporary partition for it and scp it over.

And I am again mentioning Arch. It comes naturally.

That’s a pretty good price for components from the future, if that includes shipping. You have to keep in mind Wormhole Post has really high fees.
You could try Blackhole Express, but they tend to always stretch things.
