Hope they get this to run in total war because I simply can't play any of that due to the terrible AI.

I wonder if reparations will ever be called for down the line, since it's a conscious choice and not due to necessity.
A simcard will have root and can be patched remotely.
I never thought much about it but one solution is to use a mobile wifi device that has the simcard, and the phone can be sim free. Just connect over wifi then. You can also then share the mobile hotspot with others. It might be possible to have a VPN directly on the hotspot device so everyone is automatically protected even if they can't afford a vpn. Mobile hotspots come in all altra of varieties and many have antenna connectors, so you can attach a powerful antenna for cellular reach and wifi gain, and just put that thing in your backpack, or attach it to a bike or truck etc.
Note that some plans don't allow for making a hotspot, or only allow it for one device, so keep an eye out for that. However there are some ways around it too. That's just to make sure you don't have 20 people on the same sim. But ya, that doesn't have to be a problem, but it's good to be aware of it.
I'm not sure about eSims. It would surprise me if they didn't work pretty much the same way. Perhaps turning off data and switching to wifi only is enough here, but that's just an hypothesis.
There's a more in depth post on security here
Didn't Lenovo have some privacy issues, like a key logger or sum iirc? Kinda a vague memory but I remember that's why I didn't buy one.
This is the clippy key

Yea those are still the best. I like watching Arte sometimes or other public channels because there's no ads.
Back then ads were quite nice tbh, like they'd actually put effort into it to make it catchy and funny or beautiful. And TV was worth watching. Like the discovery channel was amazing.
Haven't seen an ad in over a decade, except by accident, which is jolting. The stuff in my head is from the 90s...
I've always wanted to visit a factory. I've been in an airbus factory and that was nice, there were Tibetan monks there too. But it wasn't like a factory factory.
Or replace the ads with something else like Lemmy
Ohh it reminds me of the Aliens vs Predator game, that was so sweet :)
