  • EOS does indeed have google services removed, and replaced with microG, which is an open source replacement that allows dependent apps to still work. You can check it out here:

    I really like the balance they go for between practicality and privacy. Never tried their own online services so I can’t comment on that part.

    As for VPN with hotspot, no idea. :D For what it’s worth, regular hotspotting worked fine in my experience.

    If you’re concerned about the lifespan of the device, maybe the FP4 or FP5 would better. Lacking headphone jack aside, they seem like good upgrades and should last waaay longer.










  • I think Jim isn’t a good rolemodel for what OP is suggesting. Jim’s pranks often walked a line where they were funny for the audience, but still a bit too mean for real life. After all, Dwight never seemed to enjoy the pranks, and that’s really the crucial element of a practical joke.

    On a related note. One of my favourite pranks happened in a game of Minecraft. Me and a friend were chatting and playing. He was fishing while I was mining, except I wasn’t mining. I was waiting for the perfect moment to use an invisibility potion and snatch his fish in mid-air. He was so confused at first, until he heard my laughter, understood what was happening and had a good laugh as well.
