   I used to use this pretty thoroughly but a few issues have caused me to stop altogether now: * Flash app means that in newer versions of Android (edit: 6+ IME), even with an old Adobe Flash for Android apk loaded and with Firefox, the funct

   I learnt from this thread that my smart watch (Garmin Vivoactive HR) also has 2FA apps available for it (e.g. https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/c601e351-9fa8-4303-aead-4... ). I love the watch (long battery life,

   Another vote for re-assessing this job and whether it is a good fit for you. I can vouch from personal experience that things that kill your soul have a huge effect from which it is sometimes difficult to bounce back. Many of these places c

   I am surprised. I have a current subscription and my online account allows me to cancel. I also paid via PayPal so canceling the recurring payments would also cancel the subscription. Edit: looked it up and saw the link to cancel in Account

   I love LineageOS and pretty much most of my devices that can run it, run it. This includes various older Note phablets and Note tablets. It is pretty fast, remains up to date, has great privacy controls, and the Google Apps (one of the bigg

   I use Teltik, which resells T-Mobile Business services starting with plans at $20/mo. It has been an amazing experience so far. I used to be on AT&T MVNOs previously (Red Pocket) and while those are fine, the Teltik experience is w

   I am very much with you on this but I was saddened to read this: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/19/climate/koch-brothers-pub... - it describes active attempts to throttle adoption of mass transit.

    I tried that for a while in lieu of membership. Their employees certainly gave me a hard time over this: stink eye, calling the manager, chiding me for doing this loudly and openly, etc. Thus, while it is possible, their devout employees do

    I am fairly sure I am not alone in a severe and visceral aversion to roaches whereas shrimp excite no such sentiment. I have always wondered why that is - it seems so irrational. Also, roaches have some capabilities that make them somewhat

    I always found it suspicious that on new (Android) phones with manufacturer ROM, the Facebook app was almost always uninstallable (system app).

    Not disagreeing with your main point but battery replacement on the Nexus 7 2013 is super easy - I did it in under 10 minutes.

    I have run AdAway for years. It works great and has great features such as auto-update of sites. It also lets you whitelist or blacklist additional domains locally.

    One reason is that if signing via the Mono Framework, the only signing method it offers is SHA-1. I had to eventually sign with `osslsigncode` to get this right. I was trying to cross-compile a Windows app on Linux, which is why the Mono so

    True. The thing is that under the covers, this thing is kind of a smart phone and as such, the lack of control bothers me a bit. Your other points are valid though - one could just get this device for hotspot/call functionality and be

    I was very excited by this phone but KaiOS seems worrying though hopefully I just misread: they seem to be quite closed-source even though they are based on FirefoxOS [1], the app store is closed and carrier controlled [2], and the hotspot

    IME, there isn't much reading - one follows sometimes sub-optimal pictures to determine the initial state for a step and the final outcome/exit criterion for the same.

    I found the kits on pishop.us to be nice and priced well. For example, the PiZero W kit includes a case, Pi Zero W board, case with camera cable, and 2.5A usb power supply for $20+shipping.

    One approach is to get a new cell number and port your existing cell number to Google Voice (GV). You can then forward calls from the latter to the former, using GV blocking and spam filtering to kill off the noise.
