@Zergling_man @Pawlicker @RustyCrab @meso ok fine ill bite. there are people that are mandated to use a piece of software that violates their privacy or it will get them fired or get their door blasted by the IRS. i get that you live in a relatively good environment where you can live a mostly fossful life but for some people it's just not possible ok.

Hence why I said do that if possible.
> RustyCrab and I have mentioned that i and him are both "proprietary minimalists" which means we try to use the LEAST amount of proprietary software absolutely needed to live on and not get fired or get our ass blasted by the IRS.
> you haven't read anything in the thread
That's a fair point, lemme scroll up a bit:
> also im in this dichotomy of samsung or apple because i live in south korea and i absolutely do not want to use samsung phones and im not willing to go through the autism of ordering a google pixel online (they dont sell em here)
>> i and him are both "proprietary minimalists"
Your're a self-proclaimed "proprietary minimalist" even though you're too fucking lazy to even get a shitphone that allows to remove the default walled garden, sure thing buddy. You can't really expect me to take you seriously with that statement when you use malware-infested toy phones by choice, unless South Korea has outlawed not having Samsung/Apple/Google accounts which I'm surprised if they didn't yet knowing how degenerate that country is.
>> i live in south korea
I genuinely feel sorry for you now.

>consider getting another job
i don't know where you live but it's not easy to just quit a job and get a new one especially where RustyCrab' lives(America, west coast). not to mention they'll ask you about your "career gap" or some bullshit.
>you can bet your ass it doesn't justify running other nonfree crap that isn't imposed onto you and it never will, yet I can bet you do anyways because that's what most people with this kind of take do.
RustyCrab and I have mentioned that i and him are both "proprietary minimalists" which means we try to use the _LEAST_ amount of proprietary software absolutely needed to live on and not get fired or get our ass blasted by the IRS. you haven't read anything in the thread and you're just sperging out nonsense due to your raging high-functioning autism. i highly recommend seeing a psychiatrist and getting prescribed Lamictal or Depakote to calm down.
>Now go back to Pisscord or kill yourself, either is good for me, faggot.
i dont use discord and it's hilarious how you resort to ad hominem because you think people can live on with only using gnuware and have decided you can just resort to actual reddit-tier arguments. maybe you do but people aren't always in the same situation as you. how would you feel if you haven't eaten breakfast yesterday?

If a company mandates that you need a shitphone at all or to install Google Services, Google Play Store and download a nonfree, Play Store specific app or whatever stupid shit you should definitely consider getting another job (they exist), but even if you can't and you have to deal with it, you can bet your ass it doesn't justify running other nonfree crap that isn't imposed onto you and it never will, yet I can bet you do anyways because that's what most people with this kind of take do.
Now go back to Pisscord or kill yourself, either is good for me, faggot.

@jihadjimmy @Pawlicker @RustyCrab @Zergling_man @meso ok mr little stallman since you really want a detailed exact longpost of how being mandated proprietary software (either for someone's job or being actually legally mandated for me) has anything to do with his post "🤷 All I ever hear is excuses." since i am not in a good mood.
He responded "All I hear is excuses" because i poked fun at him saying it's one's skill issue when he doesn't exactly know what situation they're in. does he use the same device as him? does he work the same job as him? so let's begin here.
RustyCrab mentioned that Lineage didn't have MicroG which is a free implementation of Google services. he said he needs to use Maps and some couple of apps from the Play Store.
let's say he does not use the apps and lives as some "Trve bvsed gvntooman". He will either get fired or not be able to live his life normally. Is that what you want?
I was saying that people need _SOME_ fucking proprietary software in order to live their lives. this is what you are replying to. QED you absolute subzero IQ subhuman.
any questions?

@Pawlicker @RustyCrab @Zergling_man @meso
The kind of people that brings this shit up means it as justification to run pointless and unnecessary nonfree malware like Wangblows and soygames. Now tell me exactly how this stupid take of yours has anything to do with what he said.

what you didn't read is that i need Play Store/App Store only apps that won't let you use them without actually downloading them from the store such as the defacto messaging app and mobile banking which the only alternative is to use activex garbage with actual kernel-level spyware on a PC. i did not mention they have meticulous measures to block stuff like custom roms which concretes my argument further but it's irrelevant considering that you weren't attacking that part of my argument.
>I genuinely feel sorry for you now.
you better be, it's not fun here
