Only permanent solution is to stop using smartphones altogether

Even if you can’t, minimizing smartphone use, uptime and carrying mitigates some of the risk

There’s a million easier ways to claim the German unemployment money than that

A Git history would be quite an easy way to show that you are doing something regularly.

That ATM cash tracking thing comes to mind

I only work once, then copy that work everywhere.

Good that works for you. If only my needs were so simple that the configs could be same on each machine.

So you’re willing to do a lot of manual package managing, in general put a lot of work into optimizing your workflow, adjusting to different package availability, adjusting to different operating systems…

…but not writing two different configs?

That is your prerogative but you’re not convincing me. Though I don’t think I’ll be convincing you either.

I have separate configs/aliases/etc for most of my machines just because, well, they are different machines with different hardware, software, data, operating systems and purposes. Even for those (most) that I can easily install fish on.

those scripts not always work

This feels like ragebait. I have multiple devices, use fish whenever that can be installed and zsh/bash when not, and have none of these issues.

EDIT:

or some methods to jump to most recent directory like z.

Manually downloading the same shell scripts on every machine is just doing what the package manager is supposed to do for you. I did this once to get some rust utils like eza to get them to work without sudo. It’s terrible.

I mean if all your scripts are fully general purpose. That just seems really weird to me. I don’t need to run my yt-dlp scripts on the computational clusters I work on.

Moreover, none of this applies to the interactive use of the shell.

at least not on all the machines that I have to use

Ok?

What does that have to do with anything?

Always confuses me when people say this. You can use multiple different shells / scripting languages, just as you can use multiple programming languages.

The ai features are using you!

In all seriousness, I would be slightly suspicious about any closed source OS’s privacy, doubly so if they aggressively advertise AI. But we can’t know for sure, it might very respect your privacy in this situation.

AI-Powered Mobile OS

bruh

Dunno. I just use a private window in firefox and have never had this issue.

I’m on mobile btw

Android? You’ll never know what the thing is actually doing.

The other possible scenario is just correlations between your interests and what’s topical. A vague interest in privacy narrows things down considerably. Interest in the term may be statistically correlated with a number of other things that you didn’t think about.

It’s so weird. Just don’t give your kids unrestricted internet access if you’re concerned about any of this…

I use fish

Gliders are listed under “dangerous” in that infographic, 1 death in 50,000 hours, which is 200x more dangerous than commercial aviation.

how dangerous

According to this infographic, moderately dangerous, but no more than general (hobby) aviation

Edit: two person gliders are common, but not more than that

My thoughts: basically all browsers are just chrome or firefox with some extra bells and whistles. So it doesn’t really make a difference.
