    Yup. I used it to patch sync with its own api key and remove all ads. It's been working flawlessly, including nsfw content after creating my own sub to mod.

    I'm not fully switching to lemmy until sync comes over, then Reddit can finally fuck off entirely.

    JFC.. that's dystopian. A rooted android with a custom rom (shoutout GrapheneOS) can disable the GPRS connection, then could rely on dns filtered, firewalled, and VPN'd WiFi networks to make calls and texts.

    What's shitty tho is the average person likely won't even care and will accept spyware on their device as the new normal. That just makes me sad tbh.

    Exactly. I won't ever put that level of trust into any company to keep all the keys to my entire digital safe.

    Password Safe on Android is good too. It doesn't have Internet permission, and encrypted backups can be kept locally on air gapped storage, so the only person to blame if I were to ever get owned is myself.

    The only 'mass shooting' was the Philly one. Intellectually stunted and politically blinded morons are trying to change the definition by lumping in gang bangers doing drive bys and shooting up house parties. If you Individually dig through the gunviolencearchive.org sources, the overwhelming majority of them have an African American teenager with a handgun set out to settle a personal vendetta; yet somehow that scenario is - by gunviolence.orgs own statistical criteria - categorized the same exact way as a deranged psychopath with an AR-15 randomly shooting up a mall (which even once is way too fucking common, but not as statistically prominent as the site is trying to mislead the public to believe).

    It's not a gun problem, it's a cultural one.

    Akhlys - Somniloquy youtu.be

    I fuckin' love the riffs on this song (and album) soo much. It's haunting, shrill, rhythmic, and pungent; like pissed off metal murder bees are coming for your soul the whole way through.

    https://iptvwire.com/best-iptv-services/

    This site is a decent resource to find and compare providers. I've used BunnyStreams and PrivateIPTVAcess with no big complaints, but it's best to just try out 4-5 over however many months to find one that's stable in your location. Some offer free trials.

    I'd also highly recommend using privacy.com to proxy payments through a customizable digital debit card. I've never had an issue with a provider over charging or selling the info I give them, but you never know with 'illegal' services like this. It's just a good safety measure to have imo.
