Its a common misconception that banking apps don't work on grapheneOS.

In some cases there is a feature call "expliot protection compatibility mode" that you have to enable, but the OS does it automatically for most banking apps.

Tdarr can do what you want. I have mine setup to drop all non English tracks unless theyre the only one and do the same for subtitles.

You can setup a custom format in the ARRs that specifically looks for English audio and ranks any others or multi-audio as a negative value, that should help you avoid non English releases.

Uber is only the "driver" app, the one for riding still works.

Thats an odd way of saying the government will buy and hold crypto, theyve stolen as much from bitoin pioneers like Ross Ulbricht, about time they start actually paying for it.

Its an HP so the answer is yes it will do sketchy shit... Keep it from being connected to the internet and you might be able to avoid firmware updates but there's not much you can do about the ink situation.

In the spirit of the real lime wire, I'm gonna go ahead and buy a pirated version off aliexpress fr $10 instead.

The actual software to scan your phone has been around for a while, you can use it entirely for free and as often as you want: mvt.

I'm guessing whatever this ziffdavis trash is, its probably using the same thing just with a nice coat of paint and and interface that the sort of mouth breather who'd pay for security theater apps can use.

How do you think companies like core civic actually get funding? The reason their stock is booming on trumps win is because the government is who's gonna be paying for all those bunks and cages to get filled, yet I doubt many people are going to refuse to pay their federal taxes.

Your money gets used for harmful stuff at some point no matter what you do, I'm just accepting reality. Capitalism is unethical at every level, some people draw a line at prison labor while others have no problem eating chocolate from child slaves or using a iPhone made by suicidal workers in a factory that pays them next to nothing.

Unless you live the life of a monk who grows all their own food you are most likely benefiting from some kind of human exploitation, more then likely the history of the device you use to read lemmy is filled with suffering workers being exploited at every step of the way, does that mean you should give up having electronics or a phone?
