I’ll start: printers.
I bought an HP in March 2020 when my job went remote and HP bricked it remotely after only 100 pages because I wouldn’t sign up for their subscription program. Ended up trashing a perfectly good printer.
Luckily my library’s close by and I can print there remotely.
Cars. Basically every new model is always online, connected, and streaming who knows what data. Not to mention the awful UX of touchscreens.
Why should a car be connected to the internet? The infotainment is justified but should be controllable. And this includes EVs. Just because your wheels are moved by electric motors it doesn’t automatically mean the entire car is “tech” and must be connected to everything and anything.
If I had to get a car I would by an old clunker and pay someone to convert it to electric.
Yes I would like a fully electric 1957 Bel-Air please.
Old cars sound like fun, until you experience the safety features (seatbelts and crumble zones optional), missing rear visibility with tiny mirrors and the hassle to find matching spare part replicas.
And you think there is not much electronics or fancy extras in them to break, but the older cars where expected to last for 100.000km and maybe 10 years tops before the rust would eat everything up, so a lot of parts where designed cheaper and would fail sooner than today’s cars that are expected to last at least twice as long.
phones. I just fucken hate em. Until I can get my hands on a graphineOS pixel I will just feel like I have a spy device in my pocket. So now I just have a 6 year old one that is mostly offline playing local music and watching/listening to videos from grayjay. Once this device is dead I will have to look at getting a new one and im really not looking forward to it. I never use calling and i only use txt to receive spam and 2fa spam. Kinda want something like the mechaComet instead of a phone.
Grab an older phone that you can still root and flash, like a galaxy s10e. They work just fine.

GrapheneLineage Samsung Galaxy S10eI got a galaxy s10. I can root it I think. Can I put graphine on it?
https://grapheneos.org/faq#supported-devices
Literally on their page
- this page specifically highlights the supported devices per grapheneOS themselves. If your device is not on the list, it is not supported, you fucking dildos *
It literally is not on their page. GrapheneOS only supports Google Pixel phones right now
There’s a LineageOS rom that works for Samsung Galaxy S10e’s, and that’s all I know of
I was replying to fizz? Literally on their page what they support. Iunno where the confusion was?
People need to learn to open a browser and fuckin search, man.
Literally on their page what they support.
It. Is. Not. On. The. Page.
You have 2 people telling you this. I myself skimmed the whole page and even did a search for S10e. Before you pull up your keyboard to tell me I’m wrong, go look through your own link first. It’s not in there, quit lying.

Take your own advice. At best you just used the link that Google’s AI spit out, which everyone knows is wrong 10-20% of the time
Holy shit you’re dense. I know it’s not on the page. I provided the page to show fizz what they fucking support you Muppet. Learn to read.
No, I went to the grapheneOS page myself and provided the link to the specific section that reads supported devices.
I run graphene myself on a pixel pro 8. The fact that I had to boil all of this down for you because you can’t process possible inflection online is part of the problem. I’ll make sure that moving forward I write every possible nuance of the message I’m trying to convey for dorks like you.
