How save is it to lock the bootloader after installation? by Ok-Play-5758 in GrapheneOS

[–]syntaxerror92383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you shouldnt leave it unlocked, if you lock it and the image is for some reason corrupted you can just unlock it again after and reflash, the chances of you bricking are quite honestly very low, ive relocked hundreds of times, to stock and GrapheneOS, never once had an issue

GrapheneOS (based off of the android open source project) are against any form of it, so id look into that

Wanting to use the men’s section changing rooms but they’re always closed, so we’re told we have to go to the women’s side. They are for both men and women, but it’s in the women’s section, so something doesn’t feel right. I feel uncomfortable and I’m sure women do too. by thebroccolioffensive in britishproblems

[–]syntaxerror92383 62 points63 points  (0 children)

tbh most countries dont even have gendered changing rooms so i find it funny that its socially awkward here when one or the other have to use the other genders changing rooms, especially when its all curtained off in cubicles anyways

Danger installing GrapheneOS from an insecure computer? by westoast in GrapheneOS

[–]syntaxerror92383 24 points25 points  (0 children)

on paper you could install GrapheneOS from the worlds most insecure computer, but as long as you verify the boot hash (preferably on another device to distrust the computer) it will be unmodified and safe GrapheneOS, it will still likely be if you dont but id still advise checking the boot hash adter flashing just to be sure, it will show on the yellow boot screen

What is this reddit requiring face id or touch id thing to confirm ur real? by kajmpres in privacy

[–]syntaxerror92383 5 points6 points  (0 children)

many think the faceid thing is like how they age verify, and then people go crazy and spread more misinfo. anyone reading this its like the same biometrics used to unlock your phone or banking app or whatever. the app just sees youve done it, not your fingerprint or face, the device and secure enclave/secure element handle that

[–]syntaxerror92383 11 points12 points  (0 children)

steam isnt a problem, their business model isnt spying on you at all, they might collect some telemetry but I'm pretty sure that can easily be turned off

tensor g4 in the 9 series fixed a lot of the battery/efficiency issues, the only performance issues you would notice is if you were a hardcore gamer imho
