don’t let them know your lemmy account if you do it

in some countries it’s fallen out of fashion. in others, people are too lazy to bring a slim wallet with themselves and select the bills and coins every time they want to spend

most apps already work, and it’s been always that way. those that don’t, it’s because they depend on the google services system app (microg helps here). or they require google play integrity to pass which is not something that can be hacked around, because this is its exact purpose: denying to work on open source aosp systems. it is security, but not for you, but against you.

I’m sure there was, but I’m not sure there still is.

maybe those who still do that carry around a google infested phone.

The phone app is very useful for those functions - especially if the alternative is going into a bank and queuing.

the bank’s web portal should also work for this.

if it refuses to open on your phone, try firefox and enable desktop mode for that tab

Iiuc Open Source Android has to sandbox Google Play for banking apps to work

that’s not necessary but also not enough for it. the bank apps specifically check if you run a google/apple approved, unmodified operating system.

today it is not possible to pay with an open source operating system. somewhat of an exception is grapheneos, but even if you just build it from source for yourself, the bank’s app will refuse operation.

and on top of that, google services are required too if you want to pay with your phone in shops.

so this is not something open source os maintainers can solve. it is a result of google engaging in illegal practices which are not prosecuted.

building an alternative to Google and Apple is a high priority

Technically… afaik most banks in the EU also support current non-android huawei phones, which have their own implementation of the play integrity service to lock you into the factory os. but huaweis are not better, probably worse.

quality control of the operating system to make sure it doesn’t contain malware/spyware

if uou l9ok around, you should see that is not a requirement

would they notice if you would give false reviews? if its text form maybe you could generate lengthy reviews so that it eats more money, and makes it less likely someone throughly checks your work

in civilized countries consent is required for that

If you don’t want to be recorded by people at random, stay home. you are free to die

or worse, all your peers will ridicule you for not having it

with that we arrive at the original problem: depending on your shell and its configuration, .. could be part of the results of the glob expansion. so at that point why bother stepping one dir level up

it will be “optional”

in the pantry

because that does not delete hidden files in the directory

Because you don’t always want to delete the directory itself, to then recreate it and set the ownerships and permissions again

that’s fine, if you only use it on private roads. but if not, you are recording plenty of people (even not counting drivers) who did not consent to being recorded.
then who knows what happens with the recordings. and that’s the actual problem.

too bad its not enforced.

dolphin manages your connection with kio, but only those things can use the share that are aware of kio. so qt apps mostly.

hear me out. what do you do when the network share server is not always available? like because your system is a laptop, or because you are doing maintenance on your server and its off.

what I do is suffer the consequences of many software that does not handle it well, and freeze for a minute (or worse) when it tries to open the mounted share even when it shouldn’t even try. multiple KDE apps are guilty of that, including dolphin and kate, but to some extent almost everything else too.
but that is not ideal.

oh I mostly agree, but forgot to include the quote. I wanted to say, all that AI processing probably does not happen locally

how would a community owned ISP deny federal censorship?
