  • I think the point is you’re exaggerating how easy it is for the average person to install and use something like Graphene - people are arguing it’s less that Google allows it and more that white hats have forced it and I don’t think that’s an unfair statement. Like - I’m techy, own a phone running Graphene, and will have to look into the Aurora store - hadn’t heard of it before this!

    Apple seems to be pretty privacy forward at the moment and it’s true that they sell hardware more so than software, and WAY moreso than user data. For people who can’t figure out something like Graphene, Apple is certainly a better choice than Googled Android. And I think that’s valuable to be able to tell people in this day and age even if Graphene would be best overall



  • I don’t have anything in primary right now as I’ve been way too busy for way too long BUT, I just planted a bunch of wine grape vines. I know it’ll probably be a while before I get anything out of them but I’m really looking forward to eventually harvesting! We’ve got 3x zinfandel, 4x merlot, and 4x chardonnay.

    I’ll probably end up making a pyment or two before trying straight wine - I haven’t done a straight wine before and I’m more comfortable trying to sort out some adjuncts with a mead, so I think I can flesh out the flavor profile a bit if the first harvest or two doesn’t yield enough for a reasonably sized batch of “traditional” wine.
