I believe the Pixel 9a is also available. You might snag that one instead of an 8a just to give yourself another year of support.

Yes, each eSIM has its own unique IMEI. Some phones have multiple eSIMs, so they could technically have multiple carriers/phone numbers assigned to it.

Radio is referring to the proprietary piece of hardware that is in every cell phone that handles the physical portion of transmitting radio waves for wireless connectivity. This piece of hardware generally handles LTE/5G, wifi, and bluetooth.

Your IMEI is the identifier that is burned into that hardware, which uniquely lets the carriers determine if your device can authenticate on their networks.

You can turn off the radio by disabling your cellular network or turning on airplane mode on your phone. You will temporarily lose access to your cellular network until you turn it back on.

Newer devices don’t require SIM cards to connect. They have eSIM cards that can be used. You still need one or the other to connect to a cellular network.

Cancel Christmas first. See how that goes.

I changed my mkinitcpio hook from the busybox initencrypt to systemd init sd-encrypt to help with this, as it presents a different way to unlock a LUKS partition. Be sure to read the notes about sd-vconsole if you use this hook. Your mileage may vary since im not sure which OS you’re on.

Eric Berger: “SpaceX had a small issue during a rocket test. In other news, SLS deserves to be defunded to the total amount of $0”

They’re okay with this. This is not an issue for them.

Account-walled

If he knows there are millions and millions of illegal aliens, why is he rounding up the legal ones?

I imagine the data harvesting on those phones will be a topic of discussion here shortly.

I can think of some commercial audio processors that can help with that, but they are super pricey.

I can’t think of a linux application that has this capability. If there is something out there that offers AEC (acoustic echo cancellation) on linux with two mic inputs, id also be interested.

One way to help with this as far as inexpensive hardware is to make sure you’re using cardioid dynamic microphones, and not omnidirectional condenser microphones. Cardioid dynamic mics generally pick up audio directionally, like from the “front”. You have to be right up on the mic in order to have it record any type of audio. They generally wont pick up environmental sound from anything more than a few feet away. You can just point them away from noise you don’t want to pick up.

Can we also cancel all the monarch bullshit this administration is doing too?

Bro… 😂

I shouldn’t laugh, but like, c’mon… What were you expecting, lady?

Ah so its probably a redirection service used to track hits.

What is flip.it???

Go fetch it and re-use it.

And then the baby doesn’t have a mother for its entire life if it lives.

Make sure you get a college loan and get a 4 year degree!
