I....was never using Graphene?

Currently running stock 15 (rooted). 15-based Calyx is my next OS upgrade. Or possibly e/OS (when they get to it).

now with the Pixel device-specific code being closed sourced

I have yet to update my Pixel to Android 16 specifically because of this.

Calyx is going to be my next update. I say that a lot, but I've been methodically going through all of my apps and making sure everything I use will work on a de-googled ROM. It takes time.

Graphene OS devs tend to sniff their own farts and claim it's roses.

Unless you have a legitimate need for that kind of locked down security, I wouldn't worry about any of what they have to say.

Yeah, exactly.

Maybe some do, but it's not a common thing.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was a big reason.

That said, the whole porn trope of a clearly-not-teenager dressing up as a "teenager" with pigtails and everything is just....weird. It's not a turn on for me in the slightest. Even when I was a teenager and came across that, my first thought was "that's not how girls my age operate".

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

The whole show is about how Rick is a selfish prick. That episode was also about Rick being a selfish prick and trying to weasel out family therapy by turning himself into a pickle.

That's it. That was the entire reason for Pickle Rick. But the idiots who idolize Rick for some reason cranked it up to full retard.

they canned him as writer/ voice actor and the show kind of lost it's flair.

You're joking, right?

Roiland is a great voice actor, but the rambling "comedy" bits got old and repetitive real fast. I don't miss them. That, and the new VOs hit it out of the park.

I got this email last night and immediately saw through it. Turned to my wife and said, "SSA social media staff is compromised".

Anyone who's dealt with a narcissistic partner (ex or otherwise) should be very familiar with these tactics.

It is a no-win situation.

 

I'm in the process of getting my Home Assistant environment up and running, and decided to run a test: it turns out that my gaming PC (custom 5800X3D/7900XTX build) uses more power just sitting idle, than both of my storage freezers combined.

Background: In addition to some other things, I bought two "Eightree" brand Zigbee-compatible plugs to see how they fare. One is monitoring the power usage of both freezers on a power strip (don't worry, it's a heavy duty strip meant for this), and the other is measuring the usage of my entire desktop setup (including monitors and the HA server itself, a Lenovo M710q).

After monitoring these for a couple days, I decided that I will shut off my PC unless I'm actively using it. It's not a server, but it does have WOL capability, so if I absolutely need to get into it remotely, it won't be an issue.

Pretty fascinating stuff, and now my wife is completely on board as well; she wants to put a plug on her iMac to see what it draws, as she uses it to hold her cross-stitch files and other things.
