Ironically it was when the stock android upgrade on my pixel 7 completely bricked my phone (due to the multiple user profiles bug) that I decided to jump in to Graphene head first.

Compared to my experience running random ROMs on Samsungs back in the era of galaxy note 1 to 4, Graphene installer was so easy!

I wonder what their reaction would be if you are running Graphene OS and you gave them the duress PIN.

I fear they will go the other way, that is start locking down the pixels to make replacing their OS more difficult.

Probably overkill but I still run an old x86 office PC I picked up cheap in an auction. Currently running Linux mint + Kodi. Really like the Kore phone app to control it.

We are also a “one paper” state. Guess who owns that media and what pies they have their fingers in.

Land cruiser and patrol? Oh fuck off. They are primarily used as soccer mum taxis in urban areas.

Apparently Bowen’s job title shouldn’t be taken as first thought. The “Minister for Climate Change and Energy” actually means the minister for causing further climate change rather than preventing it.

We know the liberal party have been itching to do this for a while now. Scummo mentioned it in the last days before the election.

No doubt it’s happening next time the liberal party gets in.

As if it isn’t enough that they transfer tax dollars to established real estate owners, they will transfer super balances to them as well.

I’m not sure the families living in tents and cars will agree with you.

Perhaps you aren’t aware that we have a housing crisis in Australia.

Record low rental vacancies. Housing is too expensive and scarce for people on median incomes.

The people we import typically have enough money to displace those who don’t. Those who don’t end up homeless. Our politicians don’t give a fuck as many own multiple investment properties.

Excellent news for the economy, and by the economy I mean “rich people’s yachts”
