So o want to move contacts from my old android S10+ to GOS but I want to do it in a safe manner manner, I don't want to log my pixel.into the Google so just wounder what is the best way.
So had my pixel a while with GOS but been using my S10+ for the simcard side of things, also it was dual sim but pixel isn't as you can see in the pictures I tried both my UK sky and O2 sims, and I received these msgs. I think this is good as I know somewhere in the GOS manual it mentions from what I remember SIM operator protection and I think this is what Im seeing with these msgs from my pixel, looks to be blocking whatever the sim is trying to do. But even with the phone blocking them my calls,txt,data all still worked so guess you don't always really need them, but it's nice to see the OS at work. Now it's a different story when inserted back Into the s10+ instead I'm greeted with some configuration has been Downloaded and setup, which is without my input and after seeing how it works on my Pixel I doubt even the s10 needs all these so called configs (it's the extras that could be in them I'm worried about as phone works on Pixel with a services so far no problems, in one pic it mentions video voicemail... for real i dont even like video calls definitely dont need mu sim doing anything other than it is already,yeah tinfoil hat on the ready)
So I read alot of comments and post about how your ISP can see your using a VPN, so does this have to be how it is? I mean we have obfuscation with mullvad with the options in the GUI and at first I mistook this as been hidden from the ISP, I read a few things on a protocol that connects via a port and makes it look like its a video call or something to that affect, so if that's the case how do they still know its a VPN and what's a good setup for a country that looks like its heading for a ban (UK), I hear russia has put a ban in place but people are able to use there VPN still? If ISP can detect it wouldn't they just block the connection? Any tips on getting rpund this or were i should be looking, just need a little guidance thank you, Sorry to anyone that thinks I'm asking daft questions but it's best to be knowing of these things and I think reddit is a great place to ask.
Be interested to hear people's setups and why if your willing pls do so.
So I have this pile of wii's about 18 to 20 all working, some modded and some not, but get to 2026 start to clear a room out, I know what to do with the xbox's and playstations but nobody really wants a wii, I will set one up for emulation etc, but can the others serve any useful service (Anything just shoot me an idea) , also to add I only have all the cables for about 12 of these consoles so be good if I could set some up that would only work with mouse and keyboard after modding. (Maybe Linux) although I don't know which Linux would run on a wii, it just seems a shame to scrap them so I'm welcome to any ideas, thanks.
