Thank you. Are 14B models the biggest you can run comfortably?

Do you have 2 PCIE X16 slots on your motherboard (speaking in terms of electrical connections)?

Seedboxes go from €2 to €100+ a month depending on how much you will torrent and how much space you need on the box alongside other factors. My personal choices are Gigarapid and Ultra but there are others

True. I use a cheap computer monitor for myself, and since I live like a hermit it isn't really a problem for me. Aren't projectors more expensive than cheap 1080p TVs?

I will buy a Telly TV as long as I don't have to give my ID and can desolder the WiFi chip.

I know what day it is but commenting on a hypothetical precedent

Rage-read until the third paragraph lol

I don't know how PoW works but do you think that TOR and Dread's PoW can be reused?

Honestly I have no idea how PoW works at all. I'm just happy to see the innovation in this space. With that said, people have raised the idea of using TOR's PoW mechanism, or in my case, Dread's PoW. I believe both of them work without JavaScript

Thank you for your comment. Your response had me thinking for a while, and yes I think you uncovered it: I had a theoretical idea without actually considering the practical outcome.

I do not have a 3-letter agency targeting me to my knowledge. I quickly realised that sending signals over VOIP is a bad idea, I won't be doing that.

You are again correct: I run Debian as my daily driver, and it would be foolish to not consider my computer to have been compromised already. I have removed the built-in camera and microphone but I haven't attempted to clean out Intel ME from my system.

All of this makes my question look pointless since there's already so many attack vectors. In which case, I'd be interested in your opinion in physically cutting off attack vectors from an Android phone as an academic question.

Thank you for the wonderful comment.

Anubis without JavaScript is what I'm waiting for. I know that the Darknet forum Dread has a PoW system that doesn't use JS (or maybe it does something else entirely and I completely missed it)

I don't think you said anything unusual. I'm going to try and get to this stage myself. It's pretty normal for people interested in digital privacy

The issue is cost. Purchasing a pixel just to keep it lying around for one app is a bit too expensive. I'll just use my of phone instead

Dread has something that works without JS. Don't know much about it though

I'm not putting it in a Faraday cage, just preventing it from listening and seeing anything. I'll place it closer to my WAP if it needs it

It's still the same problem no? If I can't DeGoogle a phone then I don't know what and how much data is being captured. Honestly I really liked the idea to just keep the desktop app running on a separate PC with headphones plugged in. I'm wondering if USB landline converters exist so I can have it ring when a call comes but then I can speak like when I'm wearing headphones.

Thank you for the suggestion though

Yes I realised that after I posted, sorry. Do you have any other ideas I could look at? I just want to keep my phone locked up and away from me when I'm in the house but still be able to talk to family over the chat apps they use (they are not very technically literate so Simplex is out of the question; it took a lot of convincing to get some of them in Signal)

Hmm, do you think there's a way to have the ringing happen on the speakers but the conversation on the headphones? TBH if this is possible then I don't need to use such complicated measures

I know that LineageOS devs were complaining about OP not giving them the unbrick tool anymore, without which they can't test their ROM. I don't know if anything has changed since then

What are you talking about mate? The VPS will be a wireguard server, your device will connect to it and use the VPS' IP address to connect to your game

Well if I could get a twitter API to abuse for free, I'd compete with him to create automated shitposts. Not going to pay for it though
