Fuck yes dude! I’m so excited to play this!

I figured it was just a skill issue on my end that Spotify wasn’t working, but I really should be just buying CDs/digital albums as opposed to paying the Spotify subscription

I’m a week into using GrapheneOS and its been great. It is a little restrictive in that I seem to have to explicitly allow apps to run and apps like my Bank app or Spotify don’t work.

However, most apps are just Web Apps at this point and I’ve noticed very little difference in the use of the app versus the pinned browser version.

I’m also trying to curb a phone addiction so Graphene + Lemmy + Mastodon + Jellyfin is all I’m using on this thing.

I assume google headphones would cease to work if I degoogle the device

I’m using my Pixel Buds. They work just as well. Remember, its just a Bluetooth device just without all the QOL stuff like voice control.

I recommend trying it. Graphene OS install also has instruction ions to revert if you change your mind. And it’s pretty easy. Maybe a touch harder than installing Linux generally, but if your dailying Debian, you’re fine.

Windows isnt built for you its built for me, a Systems Admin.

It is so easy to get all my corporate logging and compliance software onto that thing. Its objectively spyware but the feds and the insurance companies said to do it so I do.

Oh and copilot, by the gods, its so nice to give Microsoft full access to all my emails, teams messages, and notes so it can so quickly answer questions for me on everything. Only works if it’s ya know spying on you and you’re spending hundreds a year to use it. But it is great.

I got my Vasectomy at 26. I wanted it sooner, but insurance sucks.

I believe firmly that regret is something you make yourself feel or are made to feel. So your family members don’t regret having kids because they haven’t been made to regret that decision.

I haven’t told my family about my snip because I think they would have tried to make me regret it.

That makes sense to me because they want that constant reassurance that their decision was correct. So someone NOT making that decision means it may not have been correct.

If you wanna talk about it more, I’d happily chat with you and be the support you’re not getting.
