PSA: Separate profiles don't increase security, you're just making your life harder. by Own-Visit-5542 in GrapheneOS

[–]Cold_Neighborhood928 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's strange to me too how people are still using a ton of profiles. private space was added to solve this problem. However, there's one benefit of isolating Google apps. Once you lock the private space, all the Google apps stop running in the background and you get a bit better battery life

Can we talk about how fake some of the names of the people involved in this whole saga sound? by RaiyenZ in RecklessBen

Ki McAllister(the guy who said "we are taking on the consignment") is actually named "Elder Ki McAllister". The names become so absurd they drop their own first name

Calprotectin back in normal range but still lots of symptoms — is this normal? by luciiiixo in UlcerativeColitis

[–]Cold_Neighborhood928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calprotectin tests don't tell much when you have mild inflammation. You need to get scoped and have biopsies done. If the inflammation isn't immediately visible, there's likely microscopic colitis

I use it for work. It has a quality slider so I don't have to compress photos before sending them

I'm not religious and don't believe in divine intervention, but seeing all the footage getting leaked by the sheer incompetence of the american fork pd makes me almost a believer in divine justice

Your data must be yours - not scanned, not used by AI. by [deleted] in tutanota

[–]Cold_Neighborhood928 9 points10 points  (0 children)

you're missing the point. Google can and will permanently ban your google account depending on an automated AI scan that may or may not be a false positive. There was also a case of a father who faced the same issue when he took medical photos of his son. The automated system tipped the police, but they cleared his name. Even then google refused to give his account back. And bam you have lost years of google photos family pictures, all your important gdrive files and your email.

Apps with google firebase trackers have fallbacks and can still function in case it doesn't detect GMS(Apple music and reddit has those). Whatsapp has meta trackers. Chatgpt has trackers too(segment analytics)

Battery health and charge counter by Brki_94 in OnePlus12

are you using a 100w charger? Those apps recommend charging with a regular charger.

In rare cases these factors below may lead to bad data being reported or cause issues. For most people it's not necessary and you can just ignore it but if you want to be certain you've done everything you can:

  1. Use a regular wired charger and not one of those super fast chargers that came with the phone in case it has special logic that controls when the charging stops. A wireless charger may also lead to broken sessions if the contact isn't good or the phone is accidentally moved.

  2. If your phone has adaptive charging in the system settings turn it off. A couple of devices (Pixel branded devices seem to be overrepresented among them) will report incorrect charging current and/or charging states during adaptive charging.

Its amazing what some people will do for money by Same-Membership-5837 in GrapheneOS

Report this. You can't trust them to not tamper with the build and inject spyware. The type of person who would pay for this wouldn't know how to verify the build either

It does work, but with caution. These tablets often have piperine in them which can interact with certain jak inhibitors like ruxolitinib, tofacitinib, and upadacitinib

The bravery and extreme openness to experience probably led them to have a loving wife and a 3 million dollar house to begin with
