   Got a LG C2 last year, set up the country to some one-weird-trick that I found out on Reddit and it gives me exactly zero BS. 10/10 so far.

   For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by setting up a Raspberry PI in the closet as the API server and an older Kindle as display.

   You do not have to use their "cloud MitM" feature, it's just the NS that you can't change.

    I had the same thought and had an Intel Mac, but then I tried WSL2 and it just works. Now my daily driver is a PC with specs that I wouldn't be able to afford if it was a Mac.

    They push very aggressively for whatever new TV series / movie they just released that is "top 1 in your country". Spotify is the same with whatever crappy playlists and podcasts they want you to listen. YouTube doesn't

    Did not know about either of those, thanks. I've been using Baserow for small projects that I believe Pocketbase is a way better fit.

    Dumb question: why having just 3MB is so important given that any good text model requires 10s of GB of disk and RAM?

    Besides being the person responsible for paying, she's the person responsible for the income. Google pays them half a billion a year for a reason.

    Exactly. Thinking "I use, works for me, so whatever" is very shortsighted, if it falls even more on usage, we can expect more and more websites to not even bother to test. People will use whatever comes by default on Android (whic

    DO Postgres has no superuser, which is very annoying, extensions are old, their user requests website is abandoned, and they don't seem to care.

    Their language handling was fubar'd years ago. There was a time that you could open the Google.com home page passing some query strings and it would let you search in English with non localized results BS. Years later, and Google/
