If you get a pixel watch you can pair it and use that for Google Pay FYI and have Graphene OS on your phone.

I think it has more to do with Matrix is kinda becoming the standard for secure open source messaging server but I do agree with you I would just use what works for you personally.

The site is trash my DNS blocked all their garbage so that's good.

I would not say all some of us run Graphene OS with Google Play Services stripped from Android.

100% agree been using Linux for 15 years and will never stop plus once you learn everything there is to know about how Linux works if something breaks odds are you can fix it yourself or report it with logs faster if you contribute your self as well.

That is very true indeed but my battery lasts for 2 days though because of it so I'll call that a win.

So google play services on android along with Google store are installed in the root system the can basicly do whatever the want permission wise play services is always running in the background and is a huge battery drain by not having it installed at all you are gaining more battery life.

This is what I do I self host pretty much most of my services.

Just waiting for Asahi Linux to get microphone working and I can finally use Fedora on my M2 Air all my other computers run Linux. Dropped Windows over 15 years ago it was bad then and it just keeps getting worse every update.

bradboimler , 1 month ago

It runs great just no steam for games because no arm64 support but runs really good.

It was windows 7 but my install got screwed up Some how not sure how a freind gave me a Ubuntu USB and I didn't want you try it I wanted to reinstall windows but didn't have another windows computer at the time or acces to one. And I installed Ubuntu 8.Something and back then making a Windows USB wasnt easy like it is now on Linux and never got it working so I just embraced Linux glad I did prepared me for my Dev ops career.

So the reason we don't is unless your delivery note says to knock or ring a door bell we are not allowed to because customers complain and we get written up for it called customer escalation so put it in the notes I always follow the notes no notes means it gets left a door.

bradboimler , 2 months ago

We can't leave it at any other house or address vans have camera it's termination if we do that would be why only the address listed can be delivered too.

You are correct where I am we have about 200 stops a day over 400 packages 1 minute per stop 45-60 stops a hour is what the expect.

bradboimler , 2 months ago

That is because if we do and dogs bark baby wakes up and a customer calls Amazon support over it we get a customer escalation hurts are scorecard terribly and al drivers lose their bonus for the 2 week pay period also if you don't rate a Amazon delivery with a thumbs up it hurts us as well please rate your delivery. Amazon goes out of their way to punish drivers.

bradboimler , 2 months ago

Yup we don't even get brakes well we do but if you take them you fall behind and get punished for it.

bradboimler , 2 months ago

Yes you are correct if it's a computer the ship them in OEM box so we knock for those but if it's a normal Amazon box it gets left it is what it is I wish things where different but that is Amazon for you.

bradboimler , 2 months ago

That's because the are most likely flex drivers i work for a DSP inside a Amazon warehouse the are more strict and enforce rules for self employed contractors this is just not possible the should get rid of flex that's my opinion.

Carrier services isn't required for RCS anymore pixel phones brand new don't even have it installed.

bradboimler OP , 4 months ago

Zero signups so far so no one really interested and kinda knew that mainly for personal use.

bradboimler OP , 4 months ago

Also because of this comment registration is temporary disabled while I disable rooms and spaces, and community’s so it will be messenger/group messages only. More limits may be imposed not sure yet still reading all the options in the docs. Also looking into other methods like disabling encryption on group chats if even possible to deter this.

bradboimler OP , 4 months ago (edited 4 months ago)

Yeah looking into all of this now I might move towards a invite only and keep groups community’s etc unencrypted and moderate them all. Or make community’s etc only allowed with admin approval. UPDATE: we are now invite only working on generating some invite codes if anyone is interested comment below.

bradboimler , 4 months ago

That’s why I run my own server can defederate or block instances that allow that instant block!
