You could buy a webserver outside the country and set up your own VPN software or something. I think there are forms that look like https.

You should probably try to tell at least one person a week to never vote for those people again and try to resist your oppressive state in every way you can without getting yourself in trouble or hurt.

Also try to do anything you can that they don't want. If the powerful people in your country want something, try to oppose them. Don't let them just shit on you and get away with it.

This was made for mobian with phosh. Not sure if it will work on other distros. You can always install a dct tool to decompile it and hand copy the opp-tables for the CPU and GPU or something for yours if this doesn't work.

This is also overclocked from 1.15 to 1.3 ghz on the CPU, and the GPU from the stock 4xx to 540 mghz. This was stable on my device even with the undervolt. This also adds some lower steps so the CPU can drop down to 200 mghz.

This overclock is a medium undervolt so it may or may not work. I highly recommend installing towboot, so you can boot the phone in mass storage mode in case it doesn't work. Back up your old .dtc file first so if it doesn't work, you can copy the old one back. It's in the boot partition under the allwinner folder a few folders in. You will see many files and one called sun50i-a64-pinephone-1.2.dts. You need to back up this file to your PC and rename the downloaded file to this by removing everything after the last dot.

On Linux I had to use the terminal to copy since it detects the boot directory of the pinephone as a root directory. File managers don't want to copy to it.

I couldn't change the memory clocks because that requires a lot of extra work. Mobian however comes with decent memory clocks around 540 mghz.

These overclocks help out the pinephone alot. Especially the GPU. It usually doesn't thermal throttle with this setup, and probably gets better battery life. Mobian is by far the distro I like the most I tried two or three. In addition to having the memory overclock out of the box, which the pine phone really needs, the phosh UI is fairly decent on the pinephone. I get a few days of standby battery life. I will release my own fork of mobian with the overclocks when I get it Inca more complete state. Currently working on implementing hardware acceleration for video decode. The pine phone only has a couple years of life left as networks in the U.S are moving away from 4G.

If you have any issues, chatGPT can probably help. I used it to find my way around the tools and files I needed to do this. I used an online hex convertor to create the voltage tables. The GPU performance with this is not terrible.

I played Minecraft java edition 1.7.10, with the lowest settings and 3 block render distance at 8-12 FPS. I can probably do some tweaks to improve this significantly. Installing a few mods like fast craft, lowering the resolution away from native, switching the java 8 from java 21. I just haven't had the chance yet. I did this by installing prism launcher. If anyone's is interested I will make a lightweight mod pack eventually with some tweaks to hopefully get this to 24 FPS and add a lot of cool little mods to add stuff. That is my goal. I might have to use 1 chunk render distance.

Feel free to hit me up or ask any questions if you feel like doing your own pinephone overclocking.

Google is doing much more than banning user app installation, they are going to ban abd side loading as well, because it's not about security is about control. Whenever someone tells you they are taking away a freedom you have for something harmless like installing your own apps for your safety, it's always about control.

Google is also banning emulators and many types of software that the corporate cartel don't like. They have already been doing this as well. If people offer ad free apps they get removed from the play store. There is about a 9/10 chances that if there was a decent app, it's been removed. Not anything anticorporaye they just hate ad free good software on the store.

This has led to a situation where nearly every piece of software on the store is junk, and to stop people from downloading decent apps from the internet, they are doing this nonsense.

There is so much wrong that Google does, lock bootloaders, banning user apps, taking away root access, stopping users from being able to to basic configuration of their devices like stopping software updates, they spy on people, censor the internet, the interfere in democratic elections, they target activists and stuff with demonization while allowing the absolute worst people on earth like conservative superpacs and think tanks to operate on their site, often times given them preferential treatment, like they did with corporate media over independent media.

This is the Riitek 06, Bluetooth, backlight, and usb-C rechargable. Pretty cool and can fit in my pocket. This is the older version, but the new one is about the same price $20 but has RGB backlights. The trackpad is nice and the build quality is nice. People say that the battery lasts a while, around 40 hours of more of use, over 100-150 days of standby, and charging seems to take about an hour and a half.

Google play is so bad these days. Basically any app which doesn't have ads gets shadow banned or removed or something. It's gotten to the point where 90% of the time that I search for an app on there, it has been removed, to be replaced with tons of junk apps that are full of ads and malware.

If you eat a lot of protein and keep carbs low it really helps. I'm on hormones and transfem and I'm still way stronger than most men even as I have lost a lot of mass in my arms and shoulders. A lot of strength is in your nervous system as well. Learning to move heavy stuff without pain or damaging your body sort of unlocks your nervous systems ability to use more muscle fiber at once. It's trying to protect you but as you train and also love your body and treat it well, it learns to trust you more. Most people tell you to train hard but that is horrible advice in my opinion. You actually want to train and also learn to not damage your body at all, even a little, while you are doing physically hard things.

This is standard for tor, you have to jump through several nodes to get to whatever server you are accessing. There isn't that many end points and many of them are controlled by feds which mean your data has to also pass through monitoring software which is essentially a slow software router to bottleneck everyone's traffic. However with tor you get pretty close to real anonymity with your connection, however using Tor as a VPN completely defeats this purpose because all your software and stuff is going to be pinging servers of companies and leaking your personally identifiable information.

Even with just using a browser in a sandbox, it's hard to actually stay anonymous on Tor because if your browser leaks any information or runs any compromised script which can fingerprint your machine, you lost your anonymity. The only real anonymity you can get for the most part is not using the Internet for stuff that you don't want to be traced back to you. For hacking type stuff, you could try proxying behind several machines with memory only programs that delete themselves after you finished, while carefully controlling each and every packet being sent to make sure it's completely anonymous. You can almost guarantee that some corporation some where research's exploits in tor and common computer hardware to dox you to governments and criminal groups. I wouldn't put anything on the internet you don't want the governments, corporations and criminal mafias and cartels of the world knowing.

Remember Tor was created by the D.O.D, just like the internet was created by Darpa and Google was seeded by the CIAs venture capital firm. The technology and plans for mass surveillance were already being established in the 70s and 80s, and Google was created expressly for the purpose of facilitating mass surveillance which is why they were the first company to destroy the internet.

People unironicly think being trans is a political statement. People are really dumb.

[-] DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Being trans has nothing to do with someones sexuality. Just because everything is sexual to you doesnt mean its like that for other people. To be clear, just so you dont get confused. This is an example of you mistaken what being trans is, not anyone else.

Vote against perscription only drug laws, vote against medical cartels, vote for public funding of healthcare. Make them pay some of those taxes back to us!
