A projector.

Yep, I checked outta here a while back.

… None of us were confused by the saying. You obviously are confused about where you stand cognitively, in comparison.

That’s how I feel about it as well. Better to upgrade the safe than to add warning posters.

I kind of expect it to be required, SCADA has had plenty of ancestry. But you’d expect the NSA to have been consulted on how to prevent interaction with the general public…

I know, right? Like how the hell do you get worried from such a silly movie… Unless he knew the us military defense systems were in fact that weak, against people and their telephones.

Nah, Reagan was just a wuss.

Dude, this whole website is fucking amazing, one of the phones has a DLP projector built in??? I love it, if only these could run CalyxOS.

I haven’t run graphene, so I can’t speak for it. But on any other android variant, microG is a system-app, so that it can spoof Google’s services properly. That means patching the system.

Functional apps is the important bit, use of microG allows apps to provide push messaging etc without knowing Google services aren’t installed. There’s still some communication with Google as a result, but it’s fully sanitized.

I invite you to try installing common apps like Strava or Pokemon go without any Google services at all.

There’s also CalyxOS if you don’t want to run anything Google on your phone at all, but still have functional apps and such.

I’m not gonna do that, fuck that. I do hope this much screen time is ok for kids, even as a young programmer I didn’t have an iPad everywhere. Nobody seems concerned about their privacy, but guess what: neither did my millennial peers.

I think everything will be ok with alpha and Z. Let’s not repeat our the mistakes of our parents.

I agree. We collectively overconsume, where are the manufacturers with pride in building quality devices that just work?

I’m a hardware engineer, I’d be embarrassed to release some of the shit I’ve seen onto the market for public consumption.

The rules are simple: solid state where you can, robust enclosures that can withstand common cleaners & IV exposure, geometry that makes it difficult for those cleaning fluids to get into the electronics. That’s it, you’ve got most people covered with a reliable device to interact with daily. Pinch pennies on the RGB LEDs, not the housing!

I’ll check it out, thanks

No worries, and whatever you choose will be better than stock, calyx graphene or lineage. Good luck!

I’m using CalyxOS, it comes with microG. I wish graphene supported microG, but they don’t.

I wish graphene supported microG. They’ve decided running closed-source Google (user-level app or not) is the best option, and I disagree.

I’m glad there’s options though.

Check out microG: https://microg.org/

I get all my push notifications, apps etc without any actual Google services on my phone. Remote google servers are still used, but in a more (though not fully) anonymous manner.

I’d go with CalyxOS. Install is also easy, but graphene touts allowing Google play services to be used… The very part of the picture that drew you to this comments section. You don’t have to install it in graphene, but then almost no apps work right.

CalyxOS use microG, a fully open-source spoof of Google play that is super light on battery, allows most apps to work fine (including banking), etc. Some apps like Pokemon go don’t, however.

Unknown, I don’t want to run Google apps more than I have to. I only run photos and keyboard, both with network access completely blocked by the built-in firewall.
