Well, not anymore… Ehm icloud scanning

Yes, let people do what they want.

Just check if it’s legal first.

Or if they copy the data from the servers, as it isn’t e2e, the data is unencrypted on the server (or usually encrypted on the server with keys accesible by people working there) as far as I know.

Well, I won’t enjoy loosing ~1060€ for the license, but I feel like I would at least enjoy driving a car.

Well, the quad-core i5 still works decently on my latitude, but it has ~30000 geekbench score.

Wow, thanks. I’m kind off sceptical of the aliexpress adapters and I don’t even know if the tape player even works. I might test it with some kind of religious tape from my grandma.

If you aren’t listening to C’est la Vie by Bewitched, you are good, but the Sabrina (animated) theme song is actually decent.

But if a city is already ruined or you live in a village without a bus station, it makes travel a lot easier.

Not yet there, but it will probably be something on the radio, as I don’t have any tapes (which is the only thing it supports). Could I still buy them anywhere?

Well, if you are in the market for a smaller laptop, don’t buy the x280, as it isn’t upgradable, buy a Latitude 5290 with the same specs as t480, but with a horrendous display and no trackpoint. It has decent build quality and the same upgradability as the t480. You could find it used under 200$ easily.

How is a t480 old? It’s around 7 years old.

Or people, like my mom, who are were relatively educated about technology and don’t want to learn new technologies/tools under the pretense of security (even if the software is foss, like again most adblockers.

Edit: Whenever I use a browser without an adblocker, I remember how shitty the web is without them.

If you don’t live in the EU. Here you get a better new phone from xiaomi/motorola/oneplus than a pixel for the same price. Yes, I get grapheneos and relockable bootloader, but used things are too expensive here. If you need a cheap phone, buy a cheap phone (fuck EU’s import regulations).
