hopefully tomorrow i'll actually set up my new phone

it's been such an astronomical pain in the ass... it's my mum's old phone, and it's a samsung, and you know how they are about modifying your phone!

word of advice: don't ever buy a samsung phone

i had to download a 4.3GiB stock firmware image from a site that caps downloads to 120KiB/s

why in the fuck do you have to flash the massive stock firmware file to reset knox, why is knox tripped when you try to flash non-stock firmware without enabling non-OEM ROMs, why do you have to enable non-OEM ROMs why do you have to have owned the phone for seven days (or set the clock forward one week) to enable non-OEM ROMs, why can't you disable knox, why doesn't wiping the phone from recovery reset knox, why why whyyyyyy

literally all i had to do with my old phone, the one i'm currently using, is download lineageOS and TWRP (along with gapps and magisk and all that), flash TWRP, install lineage, and reboot

meanwhile with a laptop it's like
- put linux on USB
- boot USB
- install linux

i hate phones and i especially hate samsung phones

@lynnesbian I'm sorry but your toot made me think of a stupid thing.
