Reminder: This is the guy connected to slogans like “Lock her [Clinton] up” and “Hang Mike Pence”. You really can’t make this shit up.

If by “another Jan 6” he means “more arrests and convictions for anyone threatening and committing acts of violence under the pretext of ‘muh, the elections were rigged because my side can’t lose’” - well, I’m all for it.

A lot of people were assuming a lower price from Motorola.

Those people have been fooling themselves. It has been clear for quite a while that the partnership would apply to “flagship” phones for now. That’s corporate code for: “phones that are unnecessarily expensive and chock-full with tech that most people don’t need, but buy anyway in order to (unsucessfully) impress others”.

This is accurate. I’ve been flashing phones with custom ROMs for years now, and doing it through the browser makes it both dead easy and pretty safe. You no longer need to be a tech shaman to do it. Just follow the instructions and you’re good.

Also, if you don’t like it, you can always go back to stock Android (i.e. what was installed before you started tinkering). It’s pretty painless. So roll up your sleeves and explore!

they actually look at it and want it better-targeted.

I don’t think so. The author is being a little tongue in cheek, mocking big tech: “if you’re monitoring everything, how come your ads still suck?”

Slightly OT: I’m really tired of this whole “I want relevant ads” thing. Typically it comes from media illiterate people who cannot tell apart information and manipulation…

Couldn’t agree more. I’m currently on the Pixel 6a, and in spite of having perfectly average-sized hands, I feel its 6.1" display is unwieldy. 6.8" is just bonkers.

Personally, I already balked at the size of the screen (~6.8"). The ridiculous price is just the final nail in the coffin.

True. He has already started the fingerpointing, blaming the candidates and thus offloading his responsibility for these results to them.

But where before he would have been met with pure, cultish sycophancy, this time around, he’ll face resistance, and fingers pointing back at him. Republicans have seen now that being aligned or just associated with Trump is absolutely toxic and will inevitably lose them seats. Thus, the closer we get to 2028, they will increasingly shun, undermine or even openly oppose him, which will hurt his ego bigly. I’ll be there for that, schadenfreude cranked up to 11, gleefully watching on as he goes through his own, personal, well-deserved hell.

Last night saw his party and his ego massacred bigly. Let the man grieve, alright? He deserves it, along with everything that’s coming to him now.

Ego and stupid money.

I’m looking forward to “running from the country”.

Amazing! TYSM for the detailed instructions! I’ve got a reverse proxy and a domain in place, so this should be no problem.

Alright. Sounds like I’ve got a winter project now. Thanks!

Is it possible to hook this up to FF mobile as well?

Exactly my story. Putting stuff into and getting it back out of Linkwarden was way too cumbersome, even with the FF addon installed. I want to just Control + D/B to throw something inside / get something out of my bookmarks. Linmwarden’s preservation of content is nice and all, but I found I rarely if ever needed that functionality.

Floccus is its own standalone app on Android.

Do not threaten me schools with a good time!

If it really is that smart, perhaps it could explain to Sam the difference between a peer reviewed breakthrough and a product launch.

911, I’d like to report a murder.

“Oligopoly company that came late to the party warns of risks of oligopolies (that affect it)”

When companies can effectively buy their way out of the courts, they just consider this the cost of doing business, and will continue to hurt millions of people who do not have the means to sue them.
