And what do you get with Trump? Internal genocide? Once they start enforcing their anti-LGBTQ legislations you will very much be able to call it a genocide.

There's a FOSS companion app for AirPods on Android and some features are "locked" until you press "Activate" and choose "I've spent all of my money on AirPods" as a payment method.

Then you missed the point.

All I can recommend is to delete all the fingerprints and just use the PIN at this point.

It should be the same fingerprint reader across the whole lineup, so I dont know what's happened to yours. Mine works fine, not as fast as some ultrasonic counterparts, but I have no issue with that coming from iPhone Xs.

I get it, I have a similar situation, except since I came back to Android I have been nothing but happy.

I used to be into running custom stuff on Android before my switch to an iPhone. And I, too, have found it frustrating to be forced to respect Apple's rules.

Now, however, I have a Pixel 7 and it's been a perfect experience so far. Running the stock OS non-rooted, it finally feels like my phone.

To put it simply, a "custom ROM" in this context means a modified version of Android. Many of these versions are based on AOSP (Android Open-Source Project), which is still maintained by Google, but is in fact open-source and doesn't include Google services. Therefore, there is a possibility to use Android phones (given you have one with unlockable bootloader) without any Google apps or account.

Trust me, if you care about what's happening to Google and YouTube right now, you won't love what has been happening to Apple and it's products for the last decade or so.

It shouldn't have been a while

I don't really get where the money is coming from.

We need a petition to rename Fox News to Trump News

Thanks! I've tried rooted stock for a while, but gave it up because the updates weren't showing up. I didn't know you could use any FOSS solutions to location services, I'll have to research it more. I'll give it a try once I finally decide to unlock the bootloader (I've relocked it afterwards, a big mistake).
