I generally look at what the market is doing. I care a lot more about software availability and battery than performance these days, most manufacturers have little to offer me.
Generally, the only things of interest to me are the pixels (shootout Graphene), the fairphone, and projects like the Librem 5. IMO if you want an android and care about privacy or security, the choice is kind of obvious these days.
Iirc Mozilla tried, but they all were so terrible everybody got an F according to their (IMO pretty fair) standards.
We lowkey need a database of how to airgap cars. Spying hardware started being common long enough ago that people aren’t really going to be able to avoid it when buying used, unless they have the time and money to maintain a classic car.
It isn’t just your driving either. They also very commonly log location and audio inside the car as well.
I’m referring to two bits of copper wire in a sleeve of (probably rubber) insulation, commonly used for landlines back in the day. If you don’t call it that, maybe it’s a regional thing.
Oh, and there’s 8 billion people on this planet. They all live in the “real world”. Your experiences are not somehow more valid because you happen to live on one particular patch of dirt.

Respectfully, I’d consider large parts of Canada to be undeveloped. I’m not trying to throw shade or anything, there’s just a lot of Canada to develop.
The same is true to a lesser degree in the US and most other very large nations.
Marginally maybe? Installing an add-on in torrentio doesn’t take more than a second, but it isn’t a process most people are already familiar with, like entering credit card details to open an account.
You’ll need to install the torrentio add-on.
You should use a VPN, but it will work without one.
You can use a debrid provider and remove the other stremio addons you don’t use. I’ve never bothered, and to be honest I don’t even really understand what debrid is.
Most people in developed countries have internet that can support HD resolutions, yes. Mine even does, and our building’s wiring is original to the 50s.
I’ve got a victorinox that I’ve had for almost 20 years. I got it in school, and it lasted several years with almost 50lbs of books in it (yes, really. It was a private school).
One strap gave way in the first year, but my mom restitched it and everything else has held since. Only other people I have is that it smells kinda funky because I can’t figure out how to wash it.
I’d teach them once they are old enough to understand it on a technical level, as well as the potential consequences.
And I find your comparison to sex ed very strange. Sex is something they will do with huge consequences if they fuck up. They need to understand it, and they need to understand it early.
Proton supports port forwarding, although setup on Linux is weird.
You also don’t need port forwarding for bittorrent. It is helpful, but I haven’t used it myself for years.
Proton and mullvad are the two best options I know of.
Pretty much any VPN provider is usable on Linux though, network manager can handle wireguard or openvpn configs just fine. Your biggest concern should be trustworthiness.
The hardware is wholly unremarkable, but the pixel line supports Graphene. Custom Roms are a necessity if you care about privacy even a little bit, but there are other options.
Unfortunately in many places, illegal searches are the rule, not the exception and as such security is almost as critical. If you need security AND privacy there is simply no substitute.
Motorola hardware looks kinda nice though…
Yes but also no.
It is an extremely bitter liqueur.
It is not intended for cocktails. It is traditionally consumed in shots, like the beverage it is based on (Swedish wormwood schnapps).
There are some cocktails that use malort as an ingredient, but not many. You’re probably thinking of cocktail bitters (like Angostura, consumed by dashing into a cocktail), or amaro (a sweet and bitter class of Italian liqueurs, like fernet, amaro Montenegro, or campari).
Yes, I know the Italians consider red bitter liqueurs to not be amari. No, I don’t care.
IME the only switch games to have significant issues on deck are the Zelda titles. Everything else works at least as well as on a switch, usually better.
I vote no.
Switch hardware in general is a much worse experience than emulation due to graphical limits, no save backups, etc.
If my understanding is correct, a used steam deck should be about €300, which will offer a much better experience for your switch games and play other games as well.
DivestOS is an excellent project, but it is very different from GrapheneOS from both a security and privacy point of view.
They work on my mother, but she has the kind of faith in the system I honestly envy. It seems like a much more tranquil existence.
This is the same woman who thinks the Judge Rotenburg center must not be that bad, because otherwise it would have already been closed down. She just…can’t imagine a regulatory failure that big actually happening.
I wouldn’t say “excited”, as I don’t know of it having any specific advantages over what’s already on the market.
I’m quite fond of my 7 and 8 though. Battery life and cell reception could be better, but I’ve never found either to be less than satisfactory.
