It doesn't look like this has been updated for 6 years. Does it still work on Android 14/15, or is there another newer app that does this?

I would have bought it but there was no physical release until later when Limited Run games did a limited run of the game at their premium price point. And by the time I knew Limited Run was doing a release, it was too late to get one.

Until I can do the following:

-- legally resell a digital copy of a game I bought,

-- be able to easily and legally backup and restore the digital games I've bought,

-- have legal guarantees that the digital games I bought won't be taken away from me,

my reasons for wanting physical copies are more than valid.

Oh right! And I forgot that an app called AfWall+ also blocks network connections on a per-app basis and can be active all the time. There's even a magisk module called 'afwall boot antileak' so that nothing gets network access before AfWall does.

The only realtime active firewall I can find for Android is NetGuard, but because of the way Android works it uses a VPN connection.

I guess what I am saying is that running an active firewall 24/7 on an Android device isn't practical for most people, and blocking connections at the router level only works until you leave home, unless you set up your phone to automatically VPN back to your house when your phone disconnects from your home wi-fi.

But yeah, FUTO and Heliboard are both excellent!

This is inaccurate. The reality is that the company promises that searches aren't saved and there is no search history associated with your account.

The problem is that we have no way to verify that is actually true. It requires trust.

I use Kagi. I pay $5/month for 300 searches. I am acutely aware of the fact that my searches might not be completely private.

They still offer the most accurate search results of any any search engine since ~2008 Google.

You can turn off javascript to get around the pop-up.

Sure, but being sexist or misogynistic doesn’t actually help us. Getting dirty and stooping low in political ways though, to save the country from an authoritarian nazi regime? Yes, please.

Substack allows nazis and nazi viewpoints on its platform. The CEO defended it on the Vergecast podcast with Nilay Patel. That interview was wild.

You live in Texas? I’m so sorry.
