The problem was using Cryptocurrency in the first place.

You somehow managed to not see all the posts about Chinese police overseas service stations?

They don't make it easy, I had to wait for two weeks before I could, and had to run an unsigned binary to do it. Can not recommend buying one to unlock.

Unless your ISP won't support DHCPv6-PD until you pay them extra... want to guess how I know this?

All three food-disease links received a two-star rating under the BoP system. This means: The evidence is statistically significant, but not very strong (due to inconsistent data or methodological limitations).

Good for earth.com to note that:

Observational data cannot prove causation, and dietary questionnaires can be imprecise, so caution is warranted when interpreting the size of the effects.

This is meta-analysis so it's likely inconsistent what counts as soda or hotdogs since they likely vary across each underlying study. I wonder if confounding factors include things like if the hotdogs come with bread and condiments, or size of a serving of soda. How often were the hotdogs consumed with soda? Were the results of the underlying studies adjusted with multivariate regression? To be on the safe side, best avoid all ultraprocessed foods altogether.

Yes, that's right, so I did. I wanted to have a go to see what it was about, though, and I found that root was more important for me than the security that GOS purports to offer.

And when Google itself is one of your threat actors, literally the world’s worst solution that provides the barest modicum of protection against Google is by definition more secure.

This was what I learned.

I've done something similar trying to get root on Graphene OS, since I'm more far more concerned about corporations than nation-state actors. It can be done, but isn't worth the trouble, especially since it doesn't completely work and GOS updates may break it. Long story short, GOS wasn't for me.

For anyone else who might be interested in trying to root GOS, take a look here: https://github.com/schnatterer/rooted-graphene I believe this to be likely the most comprehensive source for getting started.

Yes, I always start singing on the second line because of this.

I have. Oddly enough, I don't remember any Gearbox game with a Gearbox engine?

Please, provide an argument instead of platitudes about "study more." None of your posts contribute anything to the discussion besides "read Marx." Some of us already have done that.

I wonder what motivates it, are they being paid off by some other organizations?

A game that looks like BL4 shouldn't run like Cyberpunk 2077 with ray tracing turned on.
