Do you also avoid cash?

Yes, they're a nuisance to carry around anyway.

if you have a pixel theres absolutely no reason why you shouldnt use it.

Plenty reasons to not use it on a pixel...I had horrible compatibility with all sorts of banking apps, government 2FA and traffic warning systems, to the point where they just couldn't work at all. Their sandboxed play services breaks a shitload of day to day convenience and even necessities to increase privacy.

The article also mentions how the ports are not seated well and also talks about how they're unstable in the OS.

But the 16 still has issues with the modular ports, this really shouldn't be the case. That stuff should be ironed out by now. By the fourth generation of port modules, they absolutely should fit well, look good and work properly all the time...but they don't

But the entire concept of a modular build with replaceable ports should be well known. They should not have panel gaps, bad alignment with height differences and stability issues with these parts because they've had multiple design iterations of this already. So why have they seemingly not applied any of this knowledge and experience they have from the 13 to the 16? These are the same issues gen 1 of the 13 had, they should not exist on the 16 that uses the exact same design for these parts.

It's not v1 though, it's v4 of the concept. They already made 3 generations of the concept with the framework 13, and it's pretty bad to have these kind of issues after that many attempts.

Old enough to have experienced the world before the internet was widely available in the "western" world. It's not about getting things instantly, but I'm also over waiting for a week+ just to download a movie. The level of anonymity that a good VPN provides is good enough for me.

At a measly 200kb/s it would have taken me more than 200 days of constant downloading at "full speed" to build my media library to were it is now (3.6tb), instead of a few days...that's not about instant fix IMO, that's just super duper slow. Few (no?) people need true anonymity for torrenting, just enough to not be indisputably linked to it so they can't take you to court.

I am actually using docker compose, I've tried their guide as well with no luck.

Oh yeah I obviously don't have all the crap filler shit they bloat the numbers with.

IDK, I've been at it for a month and have accumulated around 3.6tb, I'm pretty sure Netflix alone has way more than 43.2tb in their entire library (>17000 titles globally)...
