I hate big phones too. Pixel 8 is small enough to use one handed if you have a ring on the back of the case. Fingerprint scanner is absolutely ABYSMAL tho. Really, utterly terrible.

I have a 4a running graphene and I love it but after 3+ years the battery life is shot. I really didn’t want to buy any of the new pixels because they are all too big and I hate big phones. I was thinking of just buying a new 4a and installing graphene again (because got forbid making a phone where you can just swap out the battery in this day and age) but are you saying this would be a bad idea at this point? Like even if they keep graphene up to date the phone will still be outdated (and therefore vulnerable) at the kernel/hardware level?

I suppose I meant to say “end to end encryption”. It’s no secret that it’s been under attack from the top down for a long time but from my understanding the legislation keeps getting shot down. This seems like a perfect workaround unless I’m missing something.

Agreed, the constant Braxing is a bit Sus and annoying but i guess that’s why god gave us Sponsorblock 😛

In terms of the info presented in his videos though I have been learning a lot from the channel. The way I see it even a stopped clock tells the right time twice a day.

Physical access like an NPU chip fixed onto your motherboard?

Could you give a bit more detail as to why this is? Genuine question from someone who has only recently discovered his channel and enjoying the content so far.

I’ve watched it and I don’t even know if it is clickbaity to be honest. It seems pretty on the money to me.
