On biometrics btw: they’re worse against police who could force you to unlock the phone, but if your worry is someone seeing your pin, biometrics fixes that

You can restart the phone or activate lockdown mode before going to bed and be safe from someone sneaking your finger print

You can want or need privacy without it being nefarious in some way

Locking your phone, setting it to auto lock, using biometrics so the pin is hard to steal, etc are all perfectly reasonable things to do. You have a right to privacy

If you have abusive and technically skilled family who have been caught spying on you with technical means, worrying they might do it again would be reasonable

If you constantly worry about something that you have no tangible reason to consider a credible threat, it might be some other issue, from anxiety to OCD. Perhaps try to talk to a professional?

Wait, people narrate the words in their head? That must be insanely slow

We had schools, teaching both about nazis and sex ed, because it’s too important to leave up to whatever parent someone happened to get

Well, at least they’re people with some human level of intelligence and intention, rather than a souped up predictive text generator

Or run the raid 5 or 6 separately, with hardware raid or mdadm

Even for simple mirroring there’s an argument to be made for running it separately from btrfs using mdadm. You do lose the benefit of btrfs being able to automatically pick the valid copy on localised corruption, but the admin tools are easier to use and more proven in a case of full disk failure, and if you run an encrypted block device you need to encrypt half as much stuff.

as long as your a minor enough criminal for no one with resources to bother tracking you down using the public data on the chain

It’s all the bad idea of regular digital elections, with the additional stupid of being more public, complex and wasteful

Only the NFTs didn’t do anything of the kind, unless backed up by actual legal contracts in which case the NFT was pointless, and you could just have had the legal contracts

The only reason it had a brief flash in the pan was that it was an attractive grift for speculators betting there were greater fools, and when the fools ran out so did the NFTs

The blockchain is always “gonna become crucial” in lots of things, depending on whatever looks popular at the moment, yet it never does because it is obviously a bad idea.

It’s a grift, and if you’re not an active grifter, you are the mark

Asus Zenphone 10; headphone jack, minimal bloatware, two physical sim slots, good battery, small size so it actually fits in a pocket, finger print sensor on the power button so it’s seamless to unlock. Best phone I’ve had in quite a while

One possible drawback is that I don’t think it supports esim or has an sd card slot.

You sound very unhappy with being alone. If you feel stuck and like you’ve tried everything you can think of, it might be a good time to ask for help from a therapist or similar. They might have ideas or tools you haven’t thought of yet

People in relationships can be miserable and feel extremely alone too, if the relationship isn’t working well. It’s not a one-stop-shop to happiness sadly

I hope you figure it out and start feeling better
