One lesson I see here is that software-only triggered factory resets shouldn't be a thing. Routers used to have reset pins/buttons which had to be held down for a while to make them factory reset. That should be the _only_ option

It might not be, but I'm tired of trying to buy domestically made stuff and it doesn't exist.

Yes. That sounds bad, but consuming less would actually be a benefit. Remember: reduce, reuse, recycle, and reduce is probably the most important part.

Good. Once the total cost of remote manufacturing starts licking the cost of local/domestical, it'll finally start to make sense to manufacture domestically - plus then stick a label on it that it's a domestic product, and be

Isn't no root a giant scam for not allowing you to actually own your device? All arguments have multiple sides to them.

The lesson of the cracked screen is: always pair you phone for adb as one of the first steps in setting it up, and if possible, root it. You might need it if the screen cracks and you want to save data off it. Sometimes there are ways aroun

Get on your router and follow the instructions for port forwarding. READ the documentation though, because opening devices up for the internet can be nasty, especially when it's your first time doing so.

Depends. If the power source is decent enough, it's fine. If not, you'll end up with a swollen battery, like I did, and you'll get rid of it as fast as possible.

email is from the end of the 60s. SMS is the GSM service layer, so no, email is not newer. I agree email is better in most terms, but sms slips through without data, and nothing else does because of what it is.

I have mixed feelings about this, and especially about the google application: it's nearly 300MB. In comparison, Conversations, which is a full-fledged XMPP client with voice and video included, is ~70MB. Beyond this, any use of the go
