Capitalism by design will always overwork labor. In this example, the employees finally feel their workload easing but soon enough there will be fewer of them doing the same work they’re doing now and the individuals that remain employeed will be overworked again.

I don’t need to be careless or have any real danger of dropping my phone in water to worry about water protection; humidity, sweat, rain, accidental splashes from a sink, spilled drinks, children, etc. are all very real often unpredictable water risks I might have very little opportunity to realistically avoid. I’ve seen those water detection stickers indicate water on devices that I know for a fact have been babied and never dunked for even a moment. Often humidity and a sweaty pocket were the only likely culprit.

Are you writing to Google drive directly from the cli? If so how? I regularly need to search, edit, copy, and paste to and from my notes; backup config files; save a neat little script I wrote; etc. all from the CLI. It would be awesome to have this searchable and online from a web browser too for when I’m not working in the terminal. For example, piping an error message to a file and grabbing/sanitizing that error to search later. I have ways, but their all a lot clunkier than simply have a Dropbox. I’m basically looking for something that works just like Dropbox, is not self hosted, and not as cumbersome to setup as NextCloud and the like.

Holy mixed metaphors Batman.

No they haven’t. This is stuff is commonly installed with updates from the carrier.

This kind of bullshit always comes pre installed on Samsung phones, even the ones from Google that are usually otherwise pretty stock android experiences. If they came in on an update then the responsibility is squarely on the carrier (they manage the OS updates, tailoring them to each device). On the Samsung phone’s I’ve had on Verizon this kind of bullshit has been the worst. I do consider it malware because it installs without user consent, but it’s officially authorized malware. I guess I should just be grateful I can still uninstall them after the updates, but it’s a recurring problem I know I’ll need to address after each update and one day I’m sure they’ll decide you can’t remove those junk apps.

You don’t need insane hardware to get started with Plex, but you’ll soon realize why some go a little nuts with it.

That’s just not true.

I’m an android user that’s been messaging and calling over the internet using the default messaging and calling apps for years. What you’re describing isn’t an android limitation, it’s a vendor comparability and standards issue. And I’ve had just as many problems with iphone users breaking my group texts among android using groups. The fact is that sms on iPhone is broken by design, but because you’re all broken in the same way you won’t see it.

Why bother locking the door if you’re going to leave copies of the keys all over town? I guess on the upside you’re still protected from people without physical access to you. Maybe I have trust issues.
