Somehow the EFI partition doesn’t mount and it’s impossible to troubleshoot via phone, she asked me to put back the old system 😞

    Google Photos pulled the same shit after it uploaded all of the my photos on my phone without permission. Eventually I tried to delete a bunch of pictures off the app, with the trashcan button… and soon realized that they were being erased from my actual phone storage as well. No warning, or indication that it would do so. Like wtf

      This pisses me off a lot

      They designed their photos app to always ask “y u no backup” and scare you “you gonna lose all your photos if u no backup” and ask to enable backup with the “no thanks” button under the fold

      Enable backup = Gmail blocked within one hour because of all the photos we all have in our phones nowadays

      So you have to pay or delete that pictures from their servers

      Pay Google: unacceptable

      Delete the pics from web: they get deleted from phone automatically and there isn’t an option to only delete from web but keep in phone

      Disable the photos app on the phone: the (Google) camera app doesn’t show shot preview anymore because it says photos app is missing

      They clearly had multiple meetings to make it harder as possible
