  • That was my solution. You can freeze google services on your phone to stop the updates but then you have to choose between the functionality of many apps you got from the store and all the ones you did not.

    However Google has relented by allowing provisions for a sort of “dev mode” like you have on all android phones where you just have to do some esoteric bullshit to opt back in to installing from other sources. For now, anyway. You know how they are.

    On one hand it seems like there are a difficult number of different things that will randomly prompt birds to just start fucking themselves. Everything from not putting them in isolation whenever they do it to unknowingly touching them anywhere but on the head. It’s like a whole thing you have to learn all their triggers and watch for them because they’ll goon so hard they die of stress.

    On the other hand, why are we putting animals in captivity that goon themselves to death if you don’t give them a mate? Seems kind of cruel compared to other animals that we’ve domesticated
