One of my pet peeves is how people get so dismissive about limiting their battery charge. People will even get defensive, as if it is a personal attack or something. Empirical evidence has shown time and time again that…
Price already dropped $100 on Apple’s website.
Any Android phone will be spied on by Google so long as Play Services are installed with elevated privileges(aka 99.9% of phones being commerically sold). At least with Pixels you don't have OEM bloatware on top of…

It's a fork of lineageOS [1], but I don't think they added much. [1] https://gitlab.e.foundation/e
The market for these must be incredibility niche. The average Joe would probably just switch to an iPhone if they want to de-google, and those who don't can probably find step-by-step instructions on how to install…
It's not necessarily a book, but I can recommend "The Philosopher's Toolkit: How to Be the Most Rational Person in Any Room", by the Great Courses on Audible. I decided to get it with a remaining Audible credit I had,…
