Why even have a phone number if it is useless?

• forgotten glasses
• arranging a special event
• deliveries and business coordination
• employees calling out
• etc

University press releases, they often are very far from what the actual research says

What’s your threat model? What are your major security concerns?

A phone not getting hardware updates is going to be trivially targeted by physical attacks, such as celebrite.

If your phone isn’t getting updates from graphene OS, it probably won’t get updates from calyx os either (or soon won’t).

If you just want to keep the hardware working, for nonsensitive things, lineage OS is a great option. But it won’t be very secure

Tldr:

• some airlines say power banks must be within arm’s reach
• some airlines say power banks must be stowed away

Check with your airline before traveling.

Cats would not evolve very quickly. Because of their ancestors filling the ecological niche, taking resources, new generations wouldn’t have room to compete. So we would have less varieties of cats.

Easiest? Time

Fastest? Sandpaper

I see everyone’s already covered you to you, you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to to be happy.

Here’s a different angle: people in their twenties should basically be in their peak sexuality. If your not feeling the hormonal urges, you might want to visit your doctor and get your hormones checked out.

Ever been to a pig farm? The metaphor is more obvious to farm kids.

Even assuming you had 100% efficient, and totally free energy capture systems for the evaporative clouds you see coming off the cooling towers… You probably wouldn’t use them because of the need of the primary system for time based cooling.

Any capture and recycling system will slow down the cooling rate of the primary system, if your goal is to use the primary system to maximum efficiency then that cooling rate can not be slowed down. .

Warning! Unless you setup “always relay call” for voip in signal these calls with strangers WILL disclose your IP address.

In most scenarios, for people on your contact list, that’s not a big deal. But since call links can be shared with strangers, you’re basically doxing yourself

Because for linked devices to work it’s like a group chat. Each app must encode their messages in the keys for all devices. So if you have two linked devices and Alice wants to send you a message A she has to encode it encode(bob1, A), encode(bob2,A)

So the clients MUST know about the number of linked device keys for the protocol to work.
