I’ll start: printers.

I bought an HP in March 2020 when my job went remote and HP bricked it remotely after only 100 pages because I wouldn’t sign up for their subscription program. Ended up trashing a perfectly good printer.

Luckily my library’s close by and I can print there remotely.

    phones. I just fucken hate em. Until I can get my hands on a graphineOS pixel I will just feel like I have a spy device in my pocket. So now I just have a 6 year old one that is mostly offline playing local music and watching/listening to videos from grayjay. Once this device is dead I will have to look at getting a new one and im really not looking forward to it. I never use calling and i only use txt to receive spam and 2fa spam. Kinda want something like the mechaComet instead of a phone.

      Grab an older phone that you can still root and flash, like a galaxy s10e. They work just fine.

        I got a galaxy s10. I can root it I think. Can I put graphine on it?

        • No. GrapheneOS currently only works on Pixels 7 and up.

          Next year we might be able to buy a Motorola with GOS on it. Afaik, that particular Moto doesn’t exist yet so we don’t know what the specs will be or what the privacy/security compromises will be.

            I think this is the only way I’d go back to Android. Google is hostile spyware at this point. I’m interested in GrapheneOS.

            I’m very much looking forward to that Moto. Hope it’s going to be decent, ideally something like current Edge 60 Neo - no bullshit ~7" tablet size, good battery, decent wired and wireless charging, ok camera.

          No. But you can put LineageOS on it. Someone made a rom for it a few years back, though I don’t know if it still receives updates

            It literally is not on their page. GrapheneOS only supports Google Pixel phones right now

            There’s a LineageOS rom that works for Samsung Galaxy S10e’s, and that’s all I know of

              I was replying to fizz? Literally on their page what they support. Iunno where the confusion was?

              People need to learn to open a browser and fuckin search, man.

                Literally on their page what they support.

                It. Is. Not. On. The. Page.

                You have 2 people telling you this. I myself skimmed the whole page and even did a search for S10e. Before you pull up your keyboard to tell me I’m wrong, go look through your own link first. It’s not in there, quit lying.

                People need to learn to open a browser and fuckin search, man.

                Take your own advice. At best you just used the link that Google’s AI spit out, which everyone knows is wrong 10-20% of the time

                  Holy shit you’re dense. I know it’s not on the page. I provided the page to show fizz what they fucking support you Muppet. Learn to read.

                  No, I went to the grapheneOS page myself and provided the link to the specific section that reads supported devices.

                  I run graphene myself on a pixel pro 8. The fact that I had to boil all of this down for you because you can’t process possible inflection online is part of the problem. I’ll make sure that moving forward I write every possible nuance of the message I’m trying to convey for dorks like you.

        Graphene doesn’t run on that phone. I don’t know what’s weirder, that you’re lying about it or that no one has called you for it.

                  Wrong. Making a mistake is not spreading misinformation, especially since it was fixed down thread by others. I pointed people in the correct direction to figure out a solution that can work for them.

                  You are just a doomer that tries to start fights. I never see you try to help, all you do is criticize any niggling point that you think you can make. Piss off, grow up, and be better.
