This update is actually patching a kernel-level exploit that could run arbitrary code from an app with essentially root permissions, and same with a WebKit exploit that has already been exploited, the size of the update is smaller in the image because that’s the size going from 16.3 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT213635
That's my base philosophy, too - and has been for years. And I hang on to my old phone and OS as long as possible. Mostly for battery life. Older OS's tend to be easier on the battery. But over time many apps just stop working. I've been a software developer since 1980. Most programmers are lazy fucks.
Instead of taking a little extra time to make sure their code remains backwards compatible to every OS version going back to the one they first introduced the app on, they validate (and tweak) their code for each new release and don't bother to make sure that the app still works on older OS versions. Sometimes they even take advantage of some unnecessary stupid new shiny feature of a new OS that isn't available on older OS's, and then simply code in an OS level check and declare that OS version X is now required. It's such lazy bullshit.
Eventually your banking app and lots of other useful things just don't work anymore.
If all you care about is making phone calls, using your camera, setting your alarm and sending texts, you're probably ok staying on the original OS forever. But, because programmers suck, eventually you'll have to upgrade (either the phone or the OS) if you try to use your phone for anything beyond the bare basics.
Eat the bugs pay the taxes take the shot display the fuckin wallpaper. Lol. Don't worry at some point in the future we or someone else will kill every one of these mutherfuckers.lol again
One doesn’t have anything to do with the other. The BHM wallpaper is dumb as Hell (don’t use it). But what’s even dumber is not patching your phone for an active security exploit that allows remote code execution. Updating to avoid OS bugs is reason enough.
Are you running a custom rom on a rooted droid device that has removed gapps where you now sideload only open source applications? No. The answer is no because it is insanely inconvenient and buggy as fuck.
Your Android is a rebranded apple spy device not some hipster thing that makes you better than iOS users.
Almost 150MB less? Who was in the wallpaper? Stacy Abrams?
The Tank!
We're gonna need more wallpaper paste because Stacy thought it was tapioca pudding.

I’ll keep my jailbreak thanks.
Stay off porn websites, or any random links and you should be fine.
Day in the life of an IT engineer lol
Of course they would exploit the BLM update. Anyone who doesn't download our update is clearly rayciss!
My wall paper is Derek Chauvin taking the knee.
Man, that's like "Kenyan with skin that's black as the night from working all day in the cotton fields" dark KEK!
Never update your phone. The SW out of the box is fine and always will be.

I updated and didn't see anything. I guess it's just another option somewhere
What if I didn't want to kowtow and honor the history of a group which is 4-5 times more violent than White people?

I just checked my phone's version: 14.7.1.
Build 14.88.420 is the one you want
14.88?
Joke, right?
I mean, I don't have apple, so I'm guessing here.
Kek
88 is a great number
It’s the number of keys on a piano, so music makes people Hitler.
It’s also the number of counties in Ohio. Ohio is literally Hitler.
Jeeses. Yer prepper phase. Lmao. Luv ya.
I just replaced the string to my cans.
Mine is 14.4.2 - no issues at all.

They always haven done the whole "fixed security flaws" to make people update and they always will.
My iPhone wallpaper is Lizzo wearing a thong.
that's hot
It's like that gay cereal and ice cream that sat on the shelves for months. Nobody wants it
That's what you fags get for using woke ass apple shit
You’re not wrong

Use an OS that has MicroG, so you can still use the play store
Or you could use Aurora Store
Stop using iPhones. And stop using stock Android. Get something you can use with for example Calyx OS, iode OS, /e/ OS
They’re not “forcing” you to change your wallpaper. It’s just included. Some of you people are worse than the left.
We just wanna get married they said. It will be fine they said. F off
First they came for marriage and I said nothing because I was not married.
Then they wanted to include a wallpaper I don’t have to use on my phone and there was no one to speak for me 😂
When are they going to be inclusive and include wallpapers with the cross, for Christians?
This shit doesn't stop, because people don't draw a line.
