Serious Unlocking Your Androids Potential, As well As Budgeted Gaming Phone Deal (USA)

[Amalgamation]

I found out you can delete the notification bar before I hard bricked a cell as a teen.

Used Linux to run a dual OS setup on a Chromebook to try and install StarCraft since it didn't have a CD tray. Didn't quite figure that out but learned what Ubuntu is, and how to grab programs n shit in a Linux environment while running both OS simultaneously.

Don't know a lot but I have know-how. Just don't see a major importance in learning it for myself, I prefer physical labor, but respect the knowledge others have.

Enlighten me my friend, what in the fuck is a "pajeet" and "binoclard" mean. I am a Caucasian American man

A pajeet is a person who hails from the sub continent. A binoclard is one who wears glasses like a geek

I had a hunch that Tesla automobiles utilize Linux and I was correct.

What's even more interesting is Tesla's unique stance on patents and open-source. This article I found while Googling covered it nicely:

..............................

"Just as Tesla lets others freely use its patents, it uses a few open source software (OSS) to configure its own unique operating system to keep up and ahead of the competition.

U.S.-based multinational electric vehicle manufacturer, Tesla, has configured a distinctive operating system using components from multiple open-source software providers to deliver a unique in-vehicle infotainment user experience to its customers.

The Tesla-specific operating systems were built in part by using several of the open-source software (OSS) products. OSS is software that is publicly accessible. Tesla uses OSS such as Linux, GNU toolchain, buildroot and other community-based projects such as Ubuntu. It says that its customized configuration of different parts of those systems handles delivering the security, capability and performance demanded by Tesla’s fan base.

The EV producer’s use of open-source software is nothing new to Tesla, whose CEO put out, what he called, a patent pledge in June 2014. That patent pledge said that '“it [Tesla] will not initiate patent lawsuits against anyone who, in good faith, wants to use its technology. Tesla was created to accelerate the advent of sustainable transport, and this policy is intended to encourage the advancement of a common, rapidly-evolving platform for electric vehicles, thereby benefiting Tesla, other companies making electric vehicles, and the world. These guidelines provide further detail as to how we are implementing this policy."'

Tesla's system includes, among other things, high-resolution touch displays, high-definition audio, Bluetooth/Wi-Fi/cellular connectivity, USB and cameras, all connected to high-performance multicore processors and GPUs.

High up on the list of important software issues is the use of over-the-air software updates for Tesla owners. One of the latest updates in early 2023 included the addition of Apple Music, temperature control for the heated steering wheel and Dog Mode, an app that lets you watch your dog in the car."

It's not worth buying a Motorola phone
In 2003, I had that Moto V3 Razor phone too, it was one of the most expensive mid-range phones at the time, with a weak 1.5MPX camera that could not record video (Nokia was the first with a 1.2MPX camera that could record video and photos but not selfies), but it could record photos and was one of the first to record selfies, and the Moto RazorV3 was a very nice and spectacular phone in silver.
But the current Motorola is not very good, maybe the 4k video recording is valuable on the phone, otherwise the phone's operating time is a maximum of 3 days, if you don't push it, otherwise you have to charge it every 2 days, its camera is not very strong and the phone is not shockproof or waterproof, which should be basic today.
For this much money, I can get a better phone for cheaper, Motorola is not the old one it was more than 20 years ago, just like Nokia, its quality has really slipped.
If you want a good phone today, then is it worth buying an iPhone (not because of the American lifestyle ass-licking that has been going on in Europe since 2002)
So even if it's a Chinese phone, for $300 more I can get a much better phone from Xiaomi (Xiaomi 15) than from the once very high-end Motorola, unfortunately this is the case
And with its two-day battery life and full HD display, the Motorola isn't even suitable for gaming.

The Xiaomi brand is notorious for their pre-installed backdoor and user data sharing.

Every phone call, every text, every single thing you do on that brand of phone is collected. That's why they're banned inside all secure U.S. government installations.

Garbage brand, period.

I think every smartphone can be hacked, regardless of brand
The US government has banned everything from the US that is not American, but they copy it and start producing it under their own name, this is generally typical of everything
I had a Xiaomi phone for four years and to be honest I was more satisfied with it than with Motorola
The new Xiaomi has not bad technical knowledge (8k Camera, 200MPX photo camera, waterproof until half hour under 1,5 meter of water,dust and shockproof,Gorilla Glass,stereo sound.These are very good qualities for 400$.), in fact it is a really good phone in my opinion, it's just that it is made in China (it's not like Apple's iPhone isn't assembled in China or Pakistan)
And if someone listens and reads your messages or looks at your browsing and hacks your phone, it will be either your own government or the police-secret service or the international Jews who want to know everything about everyone
Nowadays there are spy cameras as big as the head of a pin

I think you missed my point entirely. What I'm referring to isn't a "hack". Xiaomi devices have software pre-installed that allows unprecedented, unlimited and unregulated access to user data. It's not even hidden. When users accept the Terms Of Service at the moment they set it up, it grants Xiaomi permission to monitor every interaction, without notification, around the clock.

Of course it needs all that extra processing power and a massive battery. It's constantly feeding the machine of supervision.

Now, if one wants the power of a Xiaomi without the risk, I'd recommend wiping it and installing a custom ROM. It's simple enough and actually increases the performance capability of what is arguably a well-priced phone with impressive technical specs.

yea im tech-tarded. all this shit your sayin is mandarin to me. @djdeeds and i are sittin here paddling in circles

It doesn't matter to me, I don't have much to hide, the whole thing is Jew Mosad my ass with American money, it's been supported for 20 years for sure
Although it is a fact that it is illegal for Xiaomi to want to access private data
I find the large battery problematic because of the SAR value, but I think a rubber cover could solve the problem because it reduces electrical radiation
Xiaomi is not an expensive phone and it can do quite a lot, currently the new model has quite good technical characteristics, unfortunately it must be said that it is much better than the once No.1 quality Motorola or Nokia, which today can't really be said for them, they produce very poor average quality phones, and both companies were world-leading phone manufacturers 25-20 years ago

 

[D.O.A.]

Confirming that you are indeed as old as dirt, as am I.

I didn't become fully aware of Linux until around 2008-ish when little green cartoon Androids starting popping up randomly in trade journals and even a few PC games. No context or anything. It wasn't until the Android operating system launched and I saw that logo again that I made the connection.

People today have no clue how very.much of modern tech is Android/Linux. From what I understand, nearly all smart TV's and even things like smart thermostats and refrigerators are running Linux/Android.

AI and virtually all of the internet's web services run on Linux too. Windows is too expensive and somewhat retarded when used as a server. Linux just works and it's free. CentOS has always been my go to for building servers but now I'm using almalinux. Combined with nginx , mariadb and php-fpm you can't go wrong. Control panels like cPanel are for pussies. Real nerds use SSH and a command line.

Way above my pay-grade, chief.

Anyone want some coffee?

 

[Mr. Meat Sled]

That is notable, I really just gave up Linux after school but you really inspired me again because I remember the way my teacher loved it and taught us on it. It's not generic, but It really is a gem in the rough . Oh yeah KITT check this out bro. I remember listening to Coast To Coast AM one night and they were talking about this. It is a fascinating story, what he did, how he almost destroyed Linux and how he got caught. I'm sure there is a YouTube mini on him.

I'm a coast-to-coast fan as well, and I've never heard the episode @Astralnaut is referring to... would be intereting to find that story...

 

[Mr. Meat Sled]

It'll be out there. Somebody makes sure that entire Coast to Coast AM catalog is online.

 

[K.I.T.T.]

You would think so! I'd find episodes on YouTube and then three days later the channel would be banned.

Terrestrial radio broadcasts have the protection of the FCC, and those guys don't fuck around.

I think the Coast-to-Coast insider membership offers access to all episodes, but i haven't actually checked into. Now is a good time, lol.

As a Coast Insider, you can listen to the show live or on-demand with your computer or mobile device. All audio streams are delivered in high quality, crystal clear audio.

Fun Fact: Android is a Linux-based OS.

IOS is based on *Nix too.

 

[K.I.T.T.]

IOS is based on *Nix too.

EDIT: Yes, that's correct, but it has absolutely nothing to do with Linux. Android is literally just a scaled-down version of Linux.

 

[Preacher]

No, it's not.

iOS - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

It's similar architecturally, but just that, similiar.

Yes, it is.

Cheers.

Ps. Dude, even the system administrator user name in IOS is "root"

 

[K.I.T.T.]

Yes, it is. The permissions system, the file system, the boot system, the kernel... and what's more, even the administrator user is "root."

Another *Nix or derivative..

Derp. I thought you were implying iOS was a derivative of Linux. I misunderstood you. Yeah, iOS is Unix-like, comparable to Linux. My apologies! I've edit my comment to more accurately reflect my thoughts. Cheers!
