And all three of them (the original shitter, fake shitter aka bluesky, and the new shitter — this one) are loginwalled shitholes.

TBH I think of sex even when it’s not raining. Hmm… maybe I should start OnlyFans to get rich…

Since The Guardian for some reason didn’t bother to print the full statistics from their very own source, I’ll do it myself: https://aoav.org.uk/2026/londons-2025-murders-examined-key-figures-in-the-uk-capitals-homicides/

- Comment on Phone and OS Recommendations 1 week ago:
Unfortunately, there’s no alternative to a GrapheneOS phone nowadays.
- Linux phones: good privacy and good customization, but poor security, poor hardware support and poorish software support (e.g. android apps that require play verification)
- iOS: good security, almost okayish privacy, but you basically don’t own your phone
- Mainline Android: good compatibility, good hardware support, but poor to abysmal (depending on the make) security, poor to abysmal privacy, you almost don’t own your phone
- Lineage OS / iodeOS / etc: goodish privacy, adequate support for a lot of hardware, control over your phone, but poorish security, poorish software support (e.g. android apps that require play verification), lack of hardware support (e.g. the very S21)
- Fairphone & similar — they fall somewhere in the middle between mainline Android and LineageOS stuff — better privacy than mainline, more flexibility than mainline, but still dependency on Google whims, and poorish security.
That said, IMO there are two directions:
- Pixel phone (or Motorola in the future) + GrapheneOS — good software but new meh hardware —
- Current phone, maximally decrapped (ideally, almost everything but very core services disabled, e.g. via universal debloater or manually via adb) — much more private than mainline Android, relatively stable and with at least some baseline security + critical security patches from the OEM

- Comment on How hopeless is getting a job with a CS degree? 2 weeks ago:
IT is a shitshow generally. But it pays kinda well and it still needs humans to do the actual work. The other fields are probably a bit less of a shitshow, but given that the whole planet is kinda a shitshow nowadays, might kick you out (or in the balls) even harder. So… just choose the wig and makeup that suit you better, clown up, and join us in one show or another.

- Comment on Beans 5 weeks ago:
Certain socialist concepts, when applied sparingly, targetedly and thoughtfully, work pretty well — as we can see in the Nordic countries. But if used as a global state paradigm (also add populism to it), then yes, same shit.

Pretty much how it worked everywhere so far.

- Comment on I hate getting bean pre-cum on my fingers 5 weeks ago:
The trick is to open the can just a little, just by pulling the ring a little, and then pour the precum out — either into some other vessel for later consumption, or into the sink if you want to get rid of it.
Also, what is it about the beans all day?

Do you realize that you’re currently doing precisely what you’re trying to mock? — Discriminating and generalizing a group of people based on their hobby.
