If you bought a Nokia E70 on ebay, could it work with a modern SIM card?
Asking again here:
So is the cheapest 'good' android phone on the market in the west the Zenfone 3? I seem to be able to buy on Amazon for roughly £250/$320.
Is there cheaper out there without any more of a drop in quality?
>>60101353
depends on whether your carrier still supports 2G
Whoa! Some really tough choices ahead of us, am I right?

Just bought the galaxy s8 plus mates. Traded in my apple for a android. Good choice?
>>60101162
The specs look powerful enough for years to come, but by that time the screen will have a red tint over all but the top where the status bar is due to the OLED screen degrading over time. My 2012 motorola razr i looks like it has some poorly made f.lux clone on 24/7.
thanks for the blog thread

First of all, you mongoloid, ad is short for advertisement, not "add." Add is what i do when i shove my cock plus a dildo in your mom's asshole. Secondly, why are you not using VLC for Android? There are no ads and it's rock solid much like the penis i slipped in your mother's anus last night.
>>60100827
AdBlocker Reborn and MinMinGuard are superior.
Requires xposed though.
>>60101004
Not the OP but what VLC version should I use ? The last one is buggy as hell. What is the best stable version available ?
What is the best actual non botnet video player on android ?
There is no security advantage in running Linux.
Stop spreading your lies.
I would just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

There's been a huge upswing in disinformation in these threads, and in the community in general. At the end of the day, YOU are the one who loses if you take bad advice.

Melondream: Erotica Clustering by Neural Network
http://driftwheeler.com
Melondream is an Android app that uses a neural network to cluster erotica. It enables the user to search for variations on a concept he enjoys, by pressing the corresponding part of an image.
The network is trained in a totally unsupervised way-- there are no labels and no transfer learning. Clustering happens naturally because (1) the network is purely convolutional, and (2) the network is forced to produce short encodings of image content.
To reduce the training loss, the network must recognize and encode recurring patterns: girl on the beach, girl in the forest, girl with legs spread, girl on knees, girl wearing panties, close-up of pussy, etc.
Free for all, enjoy.
