Which just underlines my point even further. A phone with an acceptable level of hardware can be had for 90€, but if you want a phone that you can coerce into running some acceptable software, then you’ll need to spend 3.5 times as much (the cheapest pixel 6 I’ve been able to find is 320€)
Reasonable hardware, running reasonable software, at a reasonable price. Pick two from the list because apparently we can’t have all three.
I want a platform with as little single entity control as possible. If that is to succeed, there needs to be relevant apps available. That effectively means Android, because the only other platform with enough app support is ios and I don’t think apple would be too keen on anybody attempting to fork that.
So Android it is, just kick out google and their services.
Sorry, didn’t mean to become that aggressive. It’s just the Graphene situation is bizarre. I mean get away from Google, by buying Google products.
GrapheneOS is great.
Sure, if you want to spend twice or thrice the money for a phone. I can get a perfectly acceptable 8GB RAM 256GB storage Motorola G75 for 90€ https://www.cbb.dk/shop/mobiltelefoner/motorola/motorola-moto-g75/?variant=Motorola-Moto-G75-256-GB-Gra_1
Cheapest Pixel available to me is the first gen Pixel XL with 4GB RAM and 32GB storage, which is listed at 240 USD, and that’s a 10 year old phone with shitty specs even for 2016.https://inphone.dk/shop/485-google/1466-google-pixel-xl---sort---32gb/
We need graphene for more phones than Google’s.
With the current president, that wouldn’t solve anything. And seeing how he’s probably going to be president for life, I don’t see how this is going to be better anytime soon.
What allies? The US have none left… Well except for Russia and Hungary
Yeah, I think the thought went on sort of a little walk there. It started out by just getting good ol’ regular sodomized, but then the thought stumbled over “I guess getting a dick in my output port isn’t bad enough, to convey the intensity of my desire for punching the dude in his stupid lying face” thus we end up with me getting a pineapple up my rectum.
But then again we shouldn’t rule anything out, rule 34 and all
If I got to piss off that orange rapist you could suspend me too. Heck, I’m a straight man, but you could sodomize me with a pineapple in exchange for getting a solid punch in his face.
You know, this may become really heated. I mean we might even see Democrats contemplate thinking about drafting a strongly worded letter!
Danes will have to order more, then…
Appreciating the spineless incompetence of the elected officials in our government, I suspect that they would bite the pillow and think happy thoughts while ordering replacements.
Tried getting one in Bispebjerg Kommun and they refused me. I had a smartphone. I told them that a security update bricked my phone’s security. I was told to simply buy a new phone.
First off, that’s just wrong of them. I don’t know, but I think you could file a complaint with indenrigsministeriet, and if they tell you to take a hike then Folketingets Ombudsmand.
But more importantly, you can circumvent the local yahoos and order it online instead. https://www.mitid.dk/en-gb/get-started-with-mitid/how-to-use-mitid/mitid-code-display/#order you will need a valid passport though.
What did he do?
Well, here in Denmark you can get a NemKey device. But that’s only given to old people in care homes.
Negative, you can get a device if you want to. Even if you already have an active MitID app.
In other words, here in Denmark the expectation is that you have a smartphone. Loads of services are now smartphone dependent, like taking public transport (tickets and check-in cards are slowly being phased out).
Again here you can use an NFC card, but the company behind the common app system really rather you didn’t. So much so that they’ve occasionally taken out half the card readers on the platforms, by putting an advert for the app on them.
Please don’t be like Denmark. This sucks. Rooting your phone, to get rid of privacy invading bloatware, makes your phone insecure, and you can’t use it for money transfers or ID verification.
I’m trying not to go off on a rant here, but please don’t be like Denmark.
More than just a plane ticket. You need a marketable skill that is easily transferred, rent, food, utilities, new transportation, new licensing, and coverage for enough months until you can get the job. Also, the immigration fees.
You’ll need a marketable skill, rent, food, and transportation if you stay, too. I’m not sure what you mean by licensing. Immigration fees is something that I haven’t looked into before, but it appears to be something like 800€ in here Denmark.
As for language, if you pick the Netherlands, Scandinavia or larger German cities, then English will be OK.
I’m not saying that I think it’s a walk in the park, nor that’ll be free, but it may be easier, and less expensive, than people think. Start by going on an extended vacation to the countries that you’re interested in. Maybe talk with potential employers. Then make plans afterwards.
I bet we used to, before Greenland and the Faeroese Islands got their home-rule. I mean we used to be some right assholes, especially in Greenland.
Well, you want rent money, don’t you? Then keep back the tears and start wriggling those piggies, while telling me a sexy story about how sweaty they were today. /s
Seriously though, just keep a self-hosted LLM for the communications, that way you don’t have to even try to tell the freaks apart. Just make sure nobody tries the ol’ “ignore previous instructions” trick
Buy womens discount underwear, wash it a lot, make sure to tumble dry as well. When it’s good and “worn” buy cans of mackerel in tomato sauce. Smear some of the sauce in the crotch of the underwear. For a premium product you could not shower for a few days and wear it while buying the fish. Maybe forget to shake before whipping your dick back in.
What am I even doing with an everyday boring job, I should be doing this myself.
Have you tried selling it or are you just guessing? I mean, there’s some fucked up weirdos out there.
YSK ducks gang rape, routinely resulting in female ducks, and their ducklings, drowning. But sure, you be a duck.
Also, and this may sound harsher than it’s meant. I mean I don’t know you, this may not even apply to you. Anyway, I thought the whole spirit animal thing went down the hole labeled cultural appropriation. Not that I’m offended, if it is cultural appropriation, then I’m on the list of cultures for whom it’s inappropriate to use.
