Be the change you wish to see in the world.

When faced with a changing environment, a species has 3 choices: Adapt, Migrate, or Die.

Humans have apparently decided to vault past the first two and just yank that third lever.

I mean, 7A was never a flagship, so it isnt shocking the thing doesnt impress. IMO, the A Pixels are just adequate. And that is how they are positioned. They are literally "midrange" for a reason.

My partner liked her 6A well enough, but she isnt a techie with a bazillion things going on it. And now the battery is nerfed a bit, but I guess that's the breaks with older devices.

I like my 8 Pro well enough. I do wish it weren't so thick, but that is mostly battery so it feels worth it. Other than that, I could wish it had a removable battery, headphone jack, IR, hell even a stylus. But again all those things would add up to being way less battery life, huge, etc.

All that said, if I felt like I had better choices, I would ditch Pixel and never look back. I am really only on this thing for GrapheneOS and the relockable bootloader. I require control over my own device. Everything else is way lower priority.

My digital world is free of surveillance

I dig the sentiment, but here you are posting via ActivityPub which by its very design is not going to be free of surveillance. Corporations are scarfing our comments up to train their shitty LLMs.

You probably also send other people emails and text, after which you no longer control what happens with your message.

Finally someone read the article.

Canada said its recognition is "predicated on the Palestinian Authority's commitment to much-needed reforms, including the commitments by Palestinian Authority President [Mahmoud] Abbas to fundamentally reform its governance, to hold general elections in 2026 in which Hamas can play no part, and to demilitarize the Palestinian state."

Hamas must also immediately release all hostages taken in the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attacks on Israel, disarm and "play no role in the future governance of Palestine," Carney reiterated.

lol. Yeah,the chances of all that happening? Nil. I do think would likely be a move in the right direction, but it will not happen. This is basically an attempt to blame-shift.

There are way way more than that. Cyber campaigns by China, NorK and Iran, for examples.

Unless you used PGP or something, emails were never "private" in any meaningful sense of the word.

No idea what is going on with your comment, but whatever it is is not English. I typically only block spammers and trolls, but happily you definitely fall into one or the other (or both.)

This job would be great if it wasnt for the fucking customers.

Fortunately, it would likely never even make it in front of a judge. If you do manage to waste a judge's time with this garbage, be prepared for your attorney (and/or you) to have an unpleasant day.
