Privacy isn’t a binary choice. Obviously I would love for there to be an alternative to Google Pay but no such service exists.

The most private form of payment is to use cash but that’s just hugely inconvenient in 2024. Sometimes it would be nice to be able to pay from my phone when I don’t have my wallet on me but custom ROMs don’t allow it.

Can we just ban them entirely? Horrible cars.

I’d have rather seen Google Pay support than Android Auto though I imagine it’s a lot less feasible.

What can I say? I had a laptop with Vista pre-installed and it was fine.

Vista was fine. I never had any issues.

8 and 8.1 is a shame. Best versions if Windows we’ve ever had.

I usually go for incredibly inhumanly muscley male characters but occasionally play as a woman for variety.

Same here in the UK. Far too warm.

Of course there are. I’m still using Infinity.

If you use the official app that’s on you.

The problem for me is it’s an extra app to check and then, find the recommendations and then go back to my music app of choice and search for the recommendations. It needs a way of being implemented into current services.

They don’t need to federate to do that.

This is a bad take.

What competitors? I’d love an Apple Pay/Google Wallet alternative but nothing exists.

There’s just no point in developing an app for a dead service. Just use the AOSP messaging app when you need.

No that is a stereo mic lead, hence the two rings.

“Huh… All of this guy’s passwords are CTRL-SHIFT-INS.”

I chose India and I pay with a UK debit card SK can’t see why US would be any different. Only needed the VPN for signup.

At this point I’m waiting for the them to put a stop to my VPNed price of £1.81 for a family plan but they keep allowing it.

Wrong. They sell user data.
