They’ll just AI-clone the voice. Probably all that stops them now is that people are still alive.

They can also just let you go for someone else who has no clue about this and gladly would use their private phone for work. Depends on the job and company, of course.

Years ago, before Covid, I got this one as a present: https://www.corkor.com/en-se/collections/cork-briefcases/products/cork-messenger-bag

Loved it, the material has a super nice feel, lools great.

However, during the pandemic, so at least like 3 years in (beyond the warranty) one of the belt loops at the bag ripped straight off. I don’t know if that is just to be expected with strain on cork or if it was just an accidental thing happening.

I definitely would get something more from them, but maybe not something that “hangs” and gets strained over time. Might have been coincidental of course.

I can recommend it. If you like puzzle games, it is a good one. But I haven’t finished it so no idea if it gets terrible towards the end.

Like what? Their favourite fast food brand top 10? Do you really think the most prominent draft dodger cares about this guy evading military service?

I know you didn’t mean it like that, but at $599 it is not a “$500 device”. It is a $600 device. Which maybe isn’t much worse but still quite a price difference.

So the data was stored on AWS Dubai/Iran or whatever was bombed earlier. Sorry, too much happening, cannot keep track of all these locations.

Maybe this, I have been using it for a while https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.kaii.photos

Lavender Photos. Will just be named Photos in app list. You can switch to album view which essentially shows all directories, not quite file manager like as you asked though. But when you view an image you can rename it, just had a look if that works.

Entering the glory hole.

Well… it is!

Lmao

I haven’t really used it myself yet but this tool might help with that: https://f-droid.org/packages/page.ooooo.geoshare/

Earbuds, not headphones, just in case this is important for you.

And the ones I talk about are the Samsung Galaxy Buds live, the “beans”.

The issues I describe have however also happened to many colleagues where I work, but I do not know their respective brands and if they maybe also had issues before.

Don’t know what to tell you. I used to not have to meddle with the “handsfree telephony” settings and now I have to every time I use the bluetooth earbuds in order to keep the sound working well.

If that for some unlikely reason used to happen automatically then I also do not get why that stopped and now I have to do it.

So please don’t try and gaslight me here.

Take this with a grain of salt but there is something called Waydroid (I think?) which you can use to run Android apps on Linux. I’d assume that should work on this phone then. However not sure you need Google Play services, you don’t seem to need them on GrapheneOS so this might work fine?

I am just pissed that my bluetooth earbuds at work, ever since upgrading to Win10 (I think? Been a while ago), have issues with their microphones.

If I join a meeting every few minutes audio quality turns robotic, sounds like a very low quality phone call. The only solution is before I join a meeting and almost every time I connect my earbuds, to deselect the microphone on them and instead use the laptop microphone. Which you cannot do “on the fly” while in a meeting, because then you of course just lose all sound immediately.

So it is either being ok with sound quality going down every few minutes, making it difficult to hear people, or dropping in and out of the meeting akwardly to correct this, should I forget this before the meeting.

They worked fine pre-Win10. They still work fine on any other non-Windows device I use. There is absolutely no reason to justify this but somehow it does not get fixed.

Trunp really did see all those god emporer memes.

Honestly. I agree, but… who is actually driving 50? It seems like “everyone” is rather driving 55 or even more. So locking a vehicle at 50 won’t really stop them from blocking faster vehicles.

Dang, I need to read up on that. Got a case like that in my own family and thought they’d have to give up their German citizenship.
