Lol, so true.
Though anymore I archive pretty much any article I share. I have a Macrodroid script to grab the link from my clipboard and send it to archive.ph and open it in a browser.
I'm currently setting up ArchiveBox for my own use too.

When they remove access to content I paid for... Fuck em.

Unfortunately the stock launcher still runs anyway, because it provides things like the app switching UI.
So yea, you can switch but the other is still doing it's thing.
On windows you could actually replace the shell, and Linux is even more flexible.
Wait, you can't choose your own search engine? Lol, I woulda ditched that launcher fast.
Then again, taking the stupid search box off is also one of the first things I do, then add a search app tied to touch-hold of a soft key, like menu.
I doubt they would've gone Linux.
They liked Android partly because it enabled them to isolate the Linux core from being easily accessible, so conventional Linux tools wouldn't be easily used. This is all part of their path toward a fully locked down device for DRM.
This was a discussed a fair amount early on in my group at work. We had seen the Linux phone (that later became Android) and were excited. Then we were disappointed to see Android layered on top like Posix or Win32, rather than just the shell. All we could think is "wtf", you have an OS, and a layer based on html/scripting is gonna be sluggish, bad on battery, etc. And it was for quite a while.
Tailscale has the Funnel feature that doesn't require an open port (well, it's a UPnP port), and maintains an encrypted tunnel to your music server for anyone you decide to share it with.
Alternatively you could get as many of your friends to use Tailscale itself to minimize the need for the Funnel feature (so anyone you know get them using TS, for the general sharing let it happen via Funnel).
Tailscale is free, and easy to setup.
Meh, just canceled Netflix anyway. Their lineup is shit.
Going back to the seven seas.
Funny she defends calls for extermination as "free speech" ... Yet invite a non-leftist speaker to campus and see what happens.
On the flip side, direct open ports to your home network isn't really a great idea anyway.
At one time it wasn't as bad, but today I'd be hesitant because of the number and capability of bad actors and I'm not a network security expert (though I have a lot of training in networks, just shy of that kind of expertise).
In a way, these restrictions have promoted the use of even more secure approaches, like using Cloudflare tunnels, VPS's with VPN connections to your network, or things like Wireguard/Tailscale, which provide a virtual (encrypted) network layered on top of the public (untrusted) network.
All of these can provide an externally controlled (secured and encrypted) access to specific resources within your own network. As mentioned, VPS with VPN, Cloudflare tunnels, or Tailscale Funnel or Share.
What VPN? What's its' endpoint?
Are you at home with this issue, or outside of your network?
The first thing that comes to kind is VPN usually doesn't do split-tunnel by default, so it'll consume all your traffic instead of allowing local traffic to go to the LAN with all the rest going VPN.
There may also be a filtering of services permitted through the VPN, so if it's not split-tunneling, it's trying to route everything, but blocking streaming.
I wouldn't want all my traffic going out a VPN only to come back into my LAN via a VPN connection.
I've seen similar issues with apps like Tailscale or (a long time ago) Hamachi, where the system resolves to the Mesh network IP before the local IP, routing local traffic over the VPN/Mesh instead of the LAN.
Verify your VPN has a setting to permit local traffic/connect to local network.
Why?
If Apple isn't pursuing legal action, then they don't see it as necessary.
Lol, just wear them as badges of honor.
People downvote here without ever commenting. They even downvote posts that get tons of upvotes in other communities. That's how ideological people can be.
I have a couple people who follow me and downvote every comment, it's pretty entertaining.
Imagine having such a hardon for someone to follow them to downvote all their comments. It happens like clockwork. Must not have a day job if they have time for that kind of stuff, lol.
PS. Sorry for the downvotes you got for having a decent, respectful post here. I applaud your attempt to engage respectfully.
Your memory forgets all the lefties, including Biden and Cackling Kamala, saying all sorts of shit before they were "elected".
No thanks.
It's interesting to me to see articles about this now, when the first rewards card I saw (every bit of 20 years ago) it was obvious why they would give you such steep discounts for using nothing more than a free card.
Pretty much it's the Beeper devs and one other. But the initial setups were really nothing more than using a Mac on the backend with a an adapter to Android.
Beeper and one (maybe two) other were pretty effective at it.
Beeper Mini is a different thing altogether. It uses a service to translate ANP (Apple Notification Protocol?) to GCM (Google Cloud Messaging), which are the respective notification handlers.
The Android client is able to comm directly with iMessage servers, unlike the original Beeper and the other ones.
Wow. Wtf Verizon?
Also, wtf psychopath? How did you think you wouldn't get caught?
But make sure to update often!
