@avolkov I can install virtually everything, except Google Pay. Apps that use SafetyNet, like Pokemon Go, require extensive workarounds—not worth it for me, personally, but it can be done.

@bstacey yeah, I'm puzzled by the "beer goggles" problem when…you could just do it sober?

"Sip and swipe"? I admit, online dating for myself is almost too terrifying to contemplate. Online dating for someone else, however? HILARIOUS. https://www.thestar.com/life/relationships/advice/2019/02/22/turn-the-depressing-task-of-online-dating-into-something-social-with-a-sip-and-swipe-party.html

(It even works for the camera, heh.)
