I fucking hate freetards so much, please rope ASAP

posted from my android 13 phone running linux 4.9

>>9262
dumbphones aren't for freetards doe, freetards refuse to use any and all phones
>>9261
phones in general are for nigger cattle

>>9263
Holy seethe
>you have no heckin keyboarderino noooooo
I'm not carrying a keyboard with me wherever i go you gorilla nigger
>you need to connect a computer to get a terminal
Or just use a terminal emulator
>No root access
I just type adb root and get a root terminal. it runs any linux software. Though i have never needed it
>I'm being spied on
I don't have any googleshit installed.

Gemmy, I hope it's uploaded to the Booru.

i just noticed JPEGiness and an ugly line that needs to be edited out, i'll do that later, DON'T upload it before i fixed it, thanks.
>terminal emulator
theyre only good for keybind shit and taking redditfetch screenshots doe, you already HAVE a tty, but you cant access it lmao
>it runs lunix software
run emacs, run gdb, run gcc, or literally just X11
>i never needed it
all you do is shitpost and talk to people on the internet, thats what phones are made for, theyre useless if you actually try to do something productive
>i dont have any googleshit
you have tons of proprietary blobs, your bootloader is proprietary and backdoored, and the rest of your firmware is
your kernel is at least 10% blobs
let alone that android as a whole is a spyware operating system designed by jewgle, only to spy on people and restrict their freedom

>>9297
>>no I/O other than a single USB port and maybe a headphone jack
Your idea of a good phone is literally a laptop

>>9297
>theyre only good for keybind shit and taking redditfetch screenshots doe
How? i can run anything in it. gitlab, ffmpeg, any dockershit/webshit etc.
>run emacs, run gdb, run gcc, or literally just X11
They all run perfectly in termux.
>all you do is shitpost and talk to people on the internet
Yes.
>blobs
Don't care
>your bootloader is proprietary
It's FOSS, and licensed under Apache 2.0
>spyware, jewgle, bla.. restrict freedom... bla bla
still don't care thoughie

Oh okay I won't then, you upload it yourself when your ready buddy.

>>9281
fixed it

>>9315
what is the context here? who is this 'jak of?

>>9298
modern laptops don't have much more I/O than that either, my idea is a thinkpad.
>>9302
>webshit dockershit
i wanna see how you run X11...
>termux
custerfucked containerized abomination
its like saying "ackchyualley i can run lunix software because i run a lunix vm on muh winshit garbage OS"
>dont care
you just said that you dont have any spyware, blobs are spyware.
>foss
how can it be "locked" then?
>d-DONT CARE!!
you just claimed to not have any jewgle shit
>>9317
myself because someone leaked to the public that im actually a little girl pretending to be a 32 year old neckbeard

>>9318
>how can it be "locked" then?
The same way a computer running gnu can be locked with a password. Open Source does not place any limitations on how the software can restrict the user at runtime.
And it's trivial to unlock it (on most phones), you just go in to settings and press a button.
This is equivalent to having a bios password on your computer. its useful to protect thieves/police from overwriting your firmware with a rat or keylogger.

>>9321
then why can you not simply bypass that lock by booting up something else and changing it?
>trivial on most phones
so if you brick something and have an unbootable system but a locked bootloader, you essentially have an expensive paperweight?
do android niggers really...
>bios password
there is no such thing on my computers, because there are no proprietary bioses
>useful to protect against thieves
maybe, but they can just take out your drive or look up how to use the backdoor that is in basically every single proprietary bios
the same goes for the police
>implying that proprietary software isnt already a rat/keylogger/malware
kek, phone niggers don't surprise me...

>>9323
>then why can you not simply bypass that lock by booting up something else and changing it?
if the bootloader is locked it won't boot the 'something else'
>so if you brick something and have an unbootable system but a locked bootloader, you essentially have an expensive paperweight?
its quite hard to brick an immutable system, with a/b updates
>there is no such thing on my computers, because there are no proprietary bioses
bios passwords have nothing to do with whether your bios is proprietary or not, its a security feature to prevent people with physical access from tampering with shit
>maybe, but they can just take out your drive
Well yes, but no thief, probably not even the police is going to go to the effort of cracking open your phone, desoldering the flash chip, and flashing a new bootloader. Newer phones might have security chips that would prevent this from happening in the first place.

>>9332
so its effectively bricked from the factory?
lmao
can you even flash it externally with an SPI flasher by taking out 8 screws and attaching a 2$ clip?
i don't think so.
>muh soycurity
even doe you can bypass those passwords in 99% of all BIOSes by unplugging the CMOS battery or entering the backdoor password
>newer phones have "security" to prevent this from happening
not so "free" anymore, huh?
>not a thief, not even cops would do this
i do this every single day for fun, why wouldnt feds?
i literally buy ""broken"" thinkpads from ebay for 10-20$ each with a bios password and simply short 2 pins to get rid of it, then flash libreboot, and am good to go, i just fixed a 3000$ thinkpad and got it for 10$

>>9264
This. If you have a real use case like taking care of a relative or having a meme job, you're fucked. I would say to buy an oldfag's Nokia 3310 and install a battery kill switch, but (((they))) dismantled GSM and CDMA. Too bad all FOSS phones are smartshit
