Ok maybe a very stupid question but

The press freedom group Reporters Without Borders on Thursday announced

Isn't that gramatically incorrect? Shouldn't it be "The press freedom group Reporters Without Borders announced on Thursday"?

I see this kind of writing a lot in news articles so surely it's not actually wrong, but that's not how I was taught English writing.

On grapheneos it's a setting, 18 hours by default I believe, but adjustable from 10 minutes to 72 hours.

Yeah, but it's more than 0 pennies each.

 

I'm looking for a good solution to clone/sandbox an app, so I can use it with multiple accounts.

I recently got a separate phone number, and also a whatsapp account, for work-related stuff. Turns out whatsapp's own account switching thing is very unreliable and often doesn't deliver any notifications for the "inactive" account.

I remember using Island a long time ago, but unfortunately that one hasn't been updated in 3 years. I'm using parallel space right now, which at least delivers my notifications, but often super late and includes ads, which also isn't ideal.

Are there any good cloning solutions left, preferably with decently quick notifications? (open source would also be a big plus ofc)

Yeah iirc WhatsApp does show a warning when you first set it up with an unlocked bootloader, but you can just continue anyway.

Yeah it is possible, GrapheneOS flashes their own verified boot key when you install it. This also means you have to reset these keys if you want to go back to stock.

I'm not sure why lineageos doesn't do this, might just be a lot of work for all the devices they support. GrapheneOS only has to support the last couple of pixels after all.

That's gotta be a Nokia thing. I've been listening to music with do not disturb on when sleeping for years, never been an issue on samsung, oneplus, huawei, or pixel phones I've had.

Based on everything we learned about coreboot, we think you can port a laptop board in 40 hours or less. There are tools that you can use to dump most of the code you need. For instance, the GPIO can be done in 30 minutes, as opposed to the 30-50 hours that was quoted by several developers.

OK, so why didn't you just port it yourself in 40 hours? Apparently it's super easy.

He kinda looks like Lars Ulrich in that picture

Protons spam filter is really good in my experience as well, and you can also use your own domain.

The only downside so far imo is that you can't just add it as an imap or pop3 server to any mail client, you have to use their apps or host their bridge somewhere. Something to do with their e2ee I think.

If you find any websites that don't work with firefox, you should report them to Mozilla. Firefox has a list of known bad websites, and has fixes for them, usually just a user agent override.

But don't you have to first wait minutes, then hours, then days etc. before you finally get to 10 years? That's some dedixated toddler
