Toldinstone (classical history youtuber) has a great video on ancient Roman wine that talks about this: https://youtube.com/watch?v=4rhT7EkTgu0

It depends a lot on what you're looking to achieve with the phone, I think. If this is going to be your primary mobile device, you should choose something from their list of supported devices that has verified support for all of the conponents you need (wifi, gps, mobile data, sms, calls, etc), otherwise it's just going to be a pain to live with. I tried running a nokia N900 with postmarket as my daily for a month back in 2020, and while it was very cool, the quality of life was so so low.

If this is just going to be a fun project to tinker with, though, and you feel comfortable hacking and contributing to the project, you can dive in anywhere.

Never heard of gab, checked it out, current #1 top post is hateful racist propaganda about "white genocide" and the great replacement theory.

So yeah, fuck that. Get censored, nazi scum.

Edgelord atheist mad at christianity and islam: "every religion is genocide and hate, and I hate them."

Buddhists , jains, pagans, etc: "hey excuse you buddy."

I use heads firmware, which seals an otp key in the tpm to let you verify the integrity of the firmware, which then uses your gpg pubkey written into the firmware to verify the integrity of the boot partition.
An open, self-controlled equivalent to secure boot that relies on the tpm and your own gpg key, instead of on vendor secure boot signing keys. Very cool project!

100MWh from that one little silo, that's incredible.

I tried to buy a drink on a united flight once, and the poor guy had to tell me the only way I could pay for it was to download the united airlines app via the in-flight wifi and enter my card details there. Which I couldn't do, so fuck me I guess.

The "frontpage" is whatever you make it - don't join low-quality meme and news communities if you don't like their content.

Myst and Riven were built on HyperCard, also!

That makes sense, thanks for the new perspective.
