Excellent! Thanks for the endorsement, I’ll have a look. A reputable site is always something to hold onto.

It’s pronounced like it was something named in the universe of Dune: Zhid-Ghuwerst. You have to raise your eyebrows while you say it, as that’s part of the expression.

Totally agree!

I’m aware. You did not read everything I said. You’re too full of yourself. Relax. Don’t be presumptuous.

Yes learned about that a long time ago. But it woukd have to be like three gallons a day mayne even more. I don’t drink quite that much. And it’s not called water poisoning, it’s called water toxicity.

👍

Yes I’m aware.

Ok but whatevs. It’s very little.

There are brass paints you could apply and then seal it with any of a variety of products. I use something called Protectaclear, but you could get a cyanoacrylate spray, or something like that. Don’t get something cheap and generic because who knows what crap they might put in there.

Ok so just curious when you say it’s no more unhealthy than drinking it, what credentials are you basing that assessment upon? I’m not trying to be dickish, this is all to put my wife’s mind at ease.

I don’t know what episode of what show you’re referring to, but Soylent Green is a film from 1973, wherein it turns out it’s made from people. Whatever comedy thing you’re referencing must have been riffing off that.

Yeah there’s absolutely zero integrity so it’s really always going to be word of mouth for me. But most people don’t think that much about it they just fall for one advertisement or review or claim etc.

Anyone know if this is a reliable review? 99% of “reviews,” nowadays are just paid by the manufacturer to advertise under the guise of being a review.

Looks interesting. Especially Si/C battery of which I’ve not yet heard.

Yeah I’m not really disagreeing with you it’s just I don’t run anything that’s as privacy-necessary as you. My actual phone is iPhone and all the Android stuff I experiment with are lab systems for tinkering, rom mod testing etc. If I had anything that was being used for any really private or sensitive data, hell yes I would use something completely detached from anything google.

Well, it may be ideal, but that is not the same as absolutely necessary.

That’s one approach but far more limited than just using a Google-free Android build like Lineage.

I mean, nothing is forcing anyone to use any specific product, and there are certainly smartphones with neither Android or iOS.

Personally, at some point I will switch from iPhone to an Android device that can work with something independent like /e/ or one of the other decent ones.

I de-google everything I can.

Maybe you were in some seriously shady subs with pimple nosed little snotbags acting as mod, but none of this was ever a problem for me in the subs I frequented.

Oh dude I don’t spend a lot of time here. But I will look at what you said thanks.
