Thank you for the suggestions. I'll check it out.

I second Jaipur. Love that game.

Also absolutely true.

1. Most carrier locked phones can be unlocked.

2. Locking the bootloader is a security feature specifically to prevent people who don't know what they're doing from downloading malicious apps. If you do know what you're doing it's reasonable to say that you will buy a phone where the bootloader can be unlocked, and are capable of unlocking it which is actually a relatively straight forward process.

3. Your posts are visible to Lemmy users who aren't members of your community, just FYI.

The "you wouldn't steal a car" thing actually backfired majorly for the parties involved. It actually did two things. It highlighted that downloading movies was possible and easy to do when it was new and not many people knew about it. And it made people curious. This led to it having the exact opposite effect of what was intended.

If I take out a loan to buy a home, I don't own the home outright. The creditor owns the home until I pay off the debt. I'm likening the situations because I want to make it clear that he didn't put in his own money to buy it.

I watch two people on twitch. I know both those people in real life but they live pretty far away from me. It's a way to interact with them and watch them play games etc. That's literally all I use it for.

The site itself is under threat of being taken down? Is that what's going on? I don't think it's up to us personally to do anything. Seems like people have already mirrored it (seeing as according to your article it has a successor), and those mirrors are also listed as threats. Not gonna lie this is and always has been a game of whack a mole. There will be more successors and more lists etc because that's just how these things work.

This is literally what certain manufacturers do. Here's a side by side of the receiver remote for my setup and the one for the TV (which has never even been connected to the internet). One has these dedicated buttons. The other just has ones labeled for streaming or similar.>!!<

I'll add that the location of the buttons makes a significant difference. If they're easy to hit by accident you're more likely to have grandma launch a service she didn't mean to and not know how to back out of it. This causes more problems than it solves.
