I can't wait for the press to join in the confusion:

"What was it like to play Nintendo's famous elf swordsman, Zelda?"

"I played Link."

"What's a link?"

kindness seems pretty exclusive to white people.

I suppose big portions of history would nod quietly at this, if they could.

With maybe a clarifying note that the real goal was classism, and racism was just a convenient way to achieve more classism.

If they came with wall mounts, you might think like I did "I'm not sure I want to wall mount these."

But now I can say - it's great. It feels good to have them wall mounted in a prominent visible place.

Exactly. My phone is for texting and calling out. Receiving calls is an unfortunate bug.

Perfect score. Social obligations fulfilled: 100%. Words spoken: 0. Emotional energy cost: 40%.

This does look very 90s. I hope it 90s so hard.

I keep expecting Jeff Bezos to get angry at the portrayal of Lex Luthor to top it off.

More of the same, because they have the same sponsors. Maybe make a big show of a big change, and then fail to pass it.

While you can setup a second profile to put the Google services into, I don't recommend it.

The version of Google Services on GrapheneOS thinks it has root, but it does not.

So there's no dramatic need to setup a second profile, unless you want it for other reasons.

I personally think the second profile feature is one of the things people think they want/need from GrapheneOS, but really are happier without.

(Sure it's safer, but GrapheneOS is already so much better than other mobile OSes - and I hate to see someone quit GrapheneOS just because they didn't like the optional profiles.)

An exception I have seen is for apps mandated for a job. I'm happy to bury that stuff deep.

nobody just breaks out in song when they get dumped, for example.

awkward puppet glances both directions

You're one of today's lucky 10,000!

That amused me, too.

I think it plays fine for the intended audience, though.

For the folks looking into Anubis, that line plays well - because hosting costs are driven up by the kinds of spam bot visits that Anubis slows down.
