That's not the point - the point is that paid shills are astroturfing reddit enthusiast subreddits, so that operator doesn't shield you at all. Once a hobbyist subreddit gets big enough, it attracts a lot of attention from shady t

This is happening in my major metro, as well. A kind of flippant attitude toward even the most basic of compliance seems to be taking root. Cars are running Stop signs and red lights without even slowing, the number of cars with no license

There isn't a single Samsung Device on the supported devices list. That seems odd to me, given how many Samsung devices I believe are out there.

I, too, search "<search term> + reddit" often for product reviews and such. Thing is, the results on that front have started to slide as the paid review side of the internet catches on. I'm finding that it's gettin

Thanks for this - I have what you might call champagne taste on a beer budget. I've always wanted to live in a small, but highly efficient house in the woods. You know, something that looks like it came from an architectural magazine.

Furthermore - should the user succeed in flashing CalyxOS, they will inevitably be faced at one point with something about their device that doesn't work quite right. Maybe it's tied to Google Play Services (and the g-apps shim th

I tested positive over the Christmas break via PCR with basically zero noticeable symptoms (I had a headache and a runny nose for half a day.) I only got tested out of a sense of due diligence for upcoming family visits. I suspect that numb

I did - I bought a Speed Queen set. To be fair, mine was a set of used units, but after reading thousands of these anecdotes across the internet, I knew that they were easily rated for 10k+ loads. The part that was true - they're built

Here's a hint: non-compliance is basically a finger wag, perhaps a slap on the wrist in the most extreme case.

Similar story - boosted mid Nov. Travelled over Christmas. Have been wearing K95 masks as properly as I can as often as I can when out in public. No real symptoms to speak of, but took a PCR just to be sure. Bing! Positive. Not sure from wh

I, too, think that Omicron is the beginning of the transition back to "normal" with Covid becoming endemic. Everyone is going to be exposed to Omicron if they haven't already. I expect that for the next year or two, booster

Heavy agree - I can entertain theories just fine, but those are the jankiest of sources that do not at all support the theory that Delta was a lab leak, simply that a technician was infected by Covid and the prevailing believe is that it

If any of this is true, and I don't have enough brain power to decipher if it is or is not, would it be at least in the realm of possibility that Omicron was not an accidental leak; perhaps, rather, a deliberate one, to counteract the

How is a tiny screen overlaid in an accessible field of vision, not totally obscuring your perception of reality, NOT "augmenting reality"? I agree it barely meets the threshold, but I don't write it off as not AR full stop.

It is a California regulation, yes. I suspect that OP is making reference to the fact that as California goes, often so goes the national policy. Or, at least that's how it's played out with regularity in the past.
