while I do not know anything about torrenting. “mullvad” is a highly recommended vpn providers with a strong emphasis on privacy.

Sell it to who?

Nevermind, I see that there is an s10e. I’ll compare those two phones to see if the 10e is worth the extra $20.

Thanks for the recommendation. I guess I do not mind running stock Android, but I would prefer something less bloated. It looks like the s9 is about $70 here, but the s10 is $150-200. Why would that one be so much more expensive?

I’m really just looking to spend around $100 on an android.

Where I live the 4a is like $140 used.

I was hoping that GrapheneOS would have longer security updates for the phones.

Maybe you would not know, but do you have any android models you would recommend? I’ll mostly just use it for streaming and a few apps that are not in the US App Store.

So, I’ve been using an Oppo f7 as I live between two counties and need apps that are exclusive to one country or another.

It’s dumb, but that’s how it is.

Anyway, the oppo f7 is kind of dated and the touch screen is hyper sensitive. I’m only really watching Disney plus on it or occasionally using it for Lemmy or mastodon.

I was thinking about getting a google pixel used for this purpose and putting GrapheneOS on there. I don’t want to spend a lot though. So, how far back would you go? Is a 4a going to be too old and run down?

Well, I have an old Oppo f7 that I’ve been using as a secondary phone. But my main phone is an iPhone.

Sadly there are not alternative operating systems for either phone.

Thanks for the heads up🙏🙏

I’m really interested in android, but all the google services are kind of a turn off. I only really use YouTube, but not even the official way.

Thanks for this link. All my US banks are on there. Although it’s not really a bank, but PayPal is not listed. Does anyone have experience with this or with banks in the Philippines?

Thanks!!

I’m sorry, I’m also not getting this. My understanding is that they cannot block the sites. But it looks like are doing it. I find it a little confusing.

I don’t think you own your steam games.

Just getting out of the starting area has you back track so many times. It was a bit tedious getting to hyrule field.

I’m all for letting servers choose what they want to ban and allow. Its easy enough to just create a new account on a different server if you do not agree with the server admins decisions.

That’s the beauty of federation. The user can also setup his own instance to access the content if he wishes. He might have to learn how to do it, but its totally doable.

Haha no, it was just the wrong waste size.

As Navi: “Hey listen”

When I was a kid someone told me my pants were tight and i thanked them.

Not until a few days later I realized they were bring literal and went out to buy new pants. I over compensated and got pants that were way to big.

Going based off minimum wage of the country I’m in compared to the us minimum wage of $7.25, it’s like charging $60 for the game.

These numbers are estimates, but it kinda shares an idea of pricing. I’m not sure if the us is still 7.25 though.

I think their point is you could have spent a lot less.

Well, I used to work in banking and was studying international business in grad school around the time I was there. So I think it’s just the kind of stuff I was exposed to.
