If you have a factory pixel, you don't need to root. You can unlock bootloader and install a rom that has it (calyxos or grapheneos I know have them). You can root, but you don't have to.

Didn't know that. Just been manually rebooting. This is is much easier and more secure. Thanks!

Is this different than Charging Control? I'm on 7 Pro CalyxOS and have been using that since I was on 4 XL [a couple years ago]. I figured it was AOSP...

Edit: added a cleared timeline.

Take my angry upvote hahahaha

There was talk about teleporting a photon, but it was a mathematically possible (but technologically impossible) theory. A whole human is a pipedream.

GPT4All and Jan.AI are good places to start.

You also use Signal :fistbump:

We each have our own levels of acceptable privacy posture. Signal make it easier for the masses to get off, say, Whatsapp and feel little to no real hurdles. I agree with you, though, that the phone number and physical phone requirements are a hard sell for people with a more strict posture requirement, which was the reason it took me long to get on it. But, alas, I had to settle, because SimpleX wasn't available on iOS at the time (my family and friends are on iphones) and it is much more private that Hangouts or Whatsapp (which I still can't believe we were on). We did try Matrix for a time, but it wasn't "production ready" then, which was a deterrent to them as well. Signal being centralized wouldn't be a huge deterrent for me, if it wasn't for their continuous push to keep it that way and them actively preventing decentralization, both of which have been scratching me the wrong way for a while. I had a conversation with my groups to switch to something else, but they're not all on board. Signal, they say, is "as easy as Whatsapp and more private". I mean... they're right, but we could have better.

Care to elaborate? I haven't heard anything concrete against it.

Edit: This is less music, and more relaxation sounds. But I really like it.
