  • You can toggle mic off through quick tiles to be sure it’s off. Same as location, Bluetooth etc.

    Tbh I don’t believe at all that phones record you, they leak enough info in every other way that they don’t need to spy on your conversions.

    grapheneOS has a metric shittonne of features that allow much better seperation between apps, sandboxes all Google services so you can control it’s permissions (or not use/install them) and much more

    You can leak a lot less data with it, not using/installing google services, using PWA/webpage shortcuts instead of apps, focusing on using FOSS software over proprietary, etc





  • I got LASIK about 10 years ago. Can confirm both the visual experience of watching them laser/scalpel my lens off, as well as the highly unique smell of buring eye. Along with the painful light sensitivity that persisted for like a year. Hell I got a USB at the end with a video of the procedure to relive.

    Totally worth it though
