Are you dumb because the device you're on uses proprietary firmware?

Naw, the meme just makes it appear negative that they don't see what's going on with their money. I I interpreted that as them being ignorant of what happens with their money, yet still use the service. Which yes, I would consider dumb... Just my opinion though, feel free to share yours.

Edit: Oh right, forgot to answer the question. I use graphene OS, so no worries about evil Google snacking on my data. (And Jerboa for Lemmy)

To be clear, the meme is that PayPal shows the users' dead names (presumably because the account was set up prior to their transition/legal reasons)

The "I do not see it" is referencing "not seeing" the dead names in the transaction details.

OOOOh, okay I didn't get that one. Thanks for clearing that up. Actually didn't notice that.

But you didn't replace the proprietary bootloader, did you?

[–] Smorty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 months ago

True, I didn't. You got me there, I'm a proprietary bootloader using, apples feet kissing, winbliws using consoomer... Is it possible to change the bootloader on a pixel 6?
