Breezy Weather is quite good.

Nothing really are the masters of artificially generated hype. A lanyard for your phone…? Really? Why is anyone excited about this?

It’s almost as if there is no irony.

Or you could be an adult and move on with your life. Shaming people for not sharing your groupthink ideology is such a strange way to spend your limited time on this earth.

A rating of four on the IP rating scale means that the device is protected against debris greater than 1mm (0.039 inches) in size.

That doesn’t sound very impressive. For reference, the raz 40 has an particle protection rating of 5, which means:

Ingress of dust is not entirely prevented, but it must not enter in sufficient quantity to interfere with the safe operation of the equipment.

But the razr 50 dropped that, and now makes no guarantees about particle protection. Folding phone design does not seem to be improving in this area particularly quickly.

Why are you defending Privacy Tools so hard here? Literally anyone can look at the website and see within seconds that it is absolutely loaded with ads and affiliate links. The owner sold out years ago, the privacy community moved on and now he’s mad that he can’t AFK farm money from his shit website. He has absolutely zero credibility and writes stuff like “fuck fame, fuck money, fuck dishonesty” in that post when he himself literally used the fame of his website to make money by dishonestly recommending sponsored shit on it. It is absolutely bizarre to me that you hold this person up as some kind of moral authority and believe everything he says.

There is, it’s the exact one that user and the delusional founder of Privacy Tools have a hate boner for. Privacy Guides is non-profit with no ads or affiliate links.

Always funny when people try to pretend this PrivacyTools guy is some brave whistleblower when in reality he destroyed his own website going for a cash grab and then got butthurt when people created better alternatives that actually gave genuine advice instead of ads.

Can you please read the rest of my comment before replying? Literally the very next sentence after the one you quoted answers your question.

I don’t like people who exempt themselves from the rules they preach

Techlore isn’t about preaching rules or activism, though. Their aim is to provide balanced and nuanced information for people with lower threat models. Often that means that the products or services they discuss or recommend to certain viewers are nowhere near the most private or ethical overall; they’re just the ones that have the right balance of privacy and convenience for that person.

This is all made even more irrelevant by the fact that they actually did close their Discord earlier this year, now that their official forums are in a better state for real-time communication.

Darwin resident David Ciaravolo said his partner was hit when a group of teenagers were shooting fireworks at people celebrating Territory Day at Dripstone Cliffs.

“It’s a bit of a tradition for us to head down there … we really love Territory Day, but unfortunately the vibe down there was absolutely terrible this year,” he told ABC Radio Darwin.

"This was people hiding in bushes and attacking people with fireworks and running away and setting up and doing it again. And you honestly had no idea where they were.

"My partner copped a direct hit. Luckily she turned just in time and copped it in the back. If that was in the front, or in the face, it would have been the loss of an eye.

“She was bleeding … it’s quite a nasty wound.”

Mr Ciaravolo said he saw people putting fireworks under cars and lighting them towards cars, including a ute with people in the back.

NT Police Watch Commander Clinton Stewart said emergency services responded to multiple spot fires across the territory.

“The behaviour overnight has been good … We’ve had less fires than we’ve had in previous years … and people have been abiding by regulations better this year than we’ve had in previous years.”

The NT is a bit special, isn’t it?

They didn’t move from Matrix to Discord, that’s a very misleading way to frame it. They had Matrix, Discord and their forums, then they closed Matrix and encouraged people to use the forums instead. They left the Discord open for people who require real-time privacy advice. Here is their detailed reasoning behind the change, if you are interested.

This is a discussion on the physical components and environmental impact of these units, not the health issues they cause.

The article is about both. It’s predominantly about the environmental impact but there is also mention of the unknown health effects of the e-liquid, with a link to another article that goes into a lot more detail on that aspect. It seems fair to discuss both the environmental and health impacts to me.

I don’t really care about the name attached to the file (I’m more interested in quality and compatibility). Usually it seems to be something by NTFS (Not Here To Fuck Spiders), SuccessfulCrab, EDITH or ETHEL.

Alleged victims. And yes, one has forgiven him and is happy to see him released. The other has not made any comment as far as I know.

Make the effort to see it at least once in your life. Real snowfall is pretty magical for those of us who live in different environments.

Unihertz is a Chinese company.

The Jelly Star is even smaller and released last year. Not that I would recommend it to anyone concerned with updates or custom ROM support, because it probably won’t get any lol

He wants a small/compact phone

Sorry if I’ve misunderstood what you were trying to say. I interpreted that quote from you as suggesting the last true compact Android phones (the Xperia Compacts and, to a lesser extent, the S10e) don’t have custom ROM support. If you were instead saying the most recently released “compact” phones (which are really just medium-sized phones) don’t have custom ROM support, then that would also be partially incorrect since the Pixel A series is widely supported and the Xperia 5 III has official LineageOS support.
