I’m afraid it would just give them new ideas.

My main point against the idea is that they wouldn’t need to hide the fact it was happening. If it were possible with current tech there would already be some AI subscription bullshit that listens and takes notes on everything you do all day.

Honestly most people I saw outside of the hardcore tech sphere were excited about apple intelligence until it became clear what a shit show it was. I don’t see how it was supposed to be any less invasive than windows recall but it got a completely different reaction. You just need a good advertising/propoganda department and people will pay you for the privilege of being spied on.

I think it has to do with whether or not the battery has a current going through it while hot. I imagine heat probably makes the lithium more soluable in the electrolyte liquid, then the disolved material migrates with the current flow. Heating it without a current flow might allow it to redissolve and at least distribute it more evenly so it doesn’t make one long spike that shorts the battery.

We gave a wolf diabetes which is pretty dire.

Maybe the real enemeies were the friends we made along the way? Wait… no probably not.

I’ve used Tutanota for a long time with no issues.

For the keyboard I would try Florisboard on f-droid, it gives a lot more spacing and sizing options. I basically make the keys as wide as possible and then play with key height. The bottom offset let’s you raise or lower the keyboard as a whole to suit your grip.

I was a long time AnySoftkeyBoard user until a year or two ago when I finally decided Floris was just better. I’ve tried FUTO keyboard a little bit, it seemed fine but didn’t offer enough customization options.

Calyx has you relock the bootloader similar to graphene so it shouldn’t flag as rooted.

Not exactly the same situation but I’ve noticed that Chrome has moved from only being virtually unusable with my VPN running, to actually unusable. It just refuses to resolve URLs and won’t search, previously it just gave tons of Captcha popups if I tried to do anything. Honestly at this point I’ve just accepted I have to make firefox based browsers work for everything from now on.

Let them have as much screen time as they want, just disable the GUI and force them to operate it via terminal.
