Don’t worry all, the FAQ has reassured me that you can still use offline features like… checking the battery level!

Oh no, I don't think it would be able to pull from iCloud directly, I believe there is an option to delete uploaded photos on the iOS device after uploading in the Nextcloud app but I don't know if that is automatic or requires the user to acknowledge a prompt unfortunately.

This isn't necessarily a 1:1 answer for you but it's just what I have experience with: I used Nextcloud for a period of time and set up the app to upload which worked like any basic cloud storage service but what I've done since (I downsized) is just use the PhotoSync app and it's companion on my PC. You can target a PC (like I do), WebDAV, FTP, SMB, etc. which may help with scalability.

bad news, Proton’s official reddit account doubled-down on it as a company position (edit: but it was also him too)

The important part is that she is non-technical, not that she’s a woman.

ugh I remember my last straw on Facebook was my high school alumni group becoming a shit-storm of sea-lioning and a couple folks blocking people and also spamming nostalgia-posts to drown out and push down more serious discussion. A high school famous for it’s science-focus but alas, the older (but not much older) folks were openly commenting about that black-people-crime-percentage “statistic” and gay people.

I would get a late-model Toyota and call in via the SOS button to disable the telematics. It's a documented process and isn't like pulling teeth. A company that respects through-and-through doesn't really exist.

Find a model that has what you want and doesn't use any phone apps.

The car itself is more important. You can trade powertrain dependability for a nicer interior with a Kia, you can get superior packaging in a Honda, etc. Options also vary between trims, etc.

Google isn't necessarily the seller, but Best Buy, Staples, Amazon, Walmart and Target could hash out a deal with Google (or Bing, etc.) for "insights".

This post is posed as the next big step in internet pricing, not something necessarily happening today.

Today, it's not standard procedure outside of some specific segments (that I know of, maybe airfare? But the data fed in is more limited) but tapping into the vast amounts of data we leak through the services we use is far too big of a gold mine for companies to overlook researching and tapping into. There's a lot of things that need to happen (who supplies data? Google is the hypothetical here but what's their price? etc.) but it's absolutely feasible at scale.

Does RCS work reliably on Graphene? I thought Google was fucking with RCS quietly for those on custom ROMs or other things.
