  • I can afford a lot of tiny electronic doodads year to year. I could save it all for decades and not get close to a home or a decent retirement.

    Everything you want, nothing you need.

  • Days since Israel committed genocide: 0

    This is a live ticker. Come back daily for updates!

  • I wonder if it isn't still just a piss in the wind. All Microsoft has to do is require something propretary and the US government and their customers will just roll it out. I don't fee like we have the ability to choose with our wallets anymore. If they can't win fairly, Microsoft will cheat and collude with other companies to make them your only option.

  • I'm gonna repost it next week.

  • If you're hoarding 1 billion dollars, you're pretty evil by default.

    Increase perceived evility by a factor of 1 for every subsequent billion.

  • all have failed

    Here I sit, an eternal failure.

    To be honest, I don't have any hope. I just keep running. When I run out of places to hide, maybe I'll give computers up and get into philosophy or something. If only 1M signatures carried the weight of $1M, we might stand a chance.

    Where from here? Keep finding obscure ways to use computers freely, different chipsets, virtualization, remote access, whatever it takes. Fuck Microsoft, Google and Apple.

  • Romeo and Juliet with this language would be fucking hilarious, or Titanic.

  • Basically my take. The lore and art take Hollow Knight over the top to Goat status, but it does not dethrone Blasphemous 2 for me... I'm not entirely sure anything can.

  • They know a duck when they see one, and he ain't no duck! He's a fascist.

  • In carry, it's a bit ridiculous.

    In practice... I've got something down. Last night I installed a local ntfy server and linked sms/mms notifications from my Android to it, then linked the OP6T to the ntfy server. Now I know when I get an SMS on my SIM card. I intend to do the same for calls.

    I need to go bug someone on Postmarket's team to throw KDEconnect in the repository. That would make this chef's kiss.

    Now I don't need to remove the Android from my pocket unless it's to run music in my car. Luckily enough, my Pixel Buds love my OP6T but my 2014 car thinks it's a headset. You gotta love the bad-bluetooth years, and no AUX so I can't pair to a dongle, either. It's FM transmitter, tear my dash apart and get Dexter's Lab with it, or the Android.

    Ubuntu Touch is also something of a curiosity for me for one reason, it has somewhat of a virtualization layer for some of the devices on the phone to run on the Android drivers or somesuch magic. Apparently UT has the camera and lots of other buggy things working, but it hasn't been updated on the 6T since last year.

  • Americans are willing to give up everything they own if it means some hypothetical strawman isn't "mooching" off of their propaganda headcanon.

    Success is suffering and hard work and if everyone isn't suffering then life isn't fair. Fuck this entire viewpoint, but it's one of the main American traits ruining socialist ideals.

  • It's all about APN settings if your phone is fully supported. Also, as a rule of thumb, make sure you're on the latest of the latest firmware you could be before your phone stopped being supported officially before flashing LineageOS so you have the latest firmware for your radio, screen, camera, etc. But as far as that goes, at least on custom Android roms such as Lineage is, it's about getting those APN settings perfect. I've used a Oneplus 7 Pro since release on Lineage and then CRDroid and I'm on Tello. I couldn't recieve messages at first until I got it resolved. The OP6T on Linux won't be capable whether I can receive calls or not, so... as far as solving my networking issue is concerned, it's kind of moot until the speaker issue is fixed.

  • I'm in the side that we are in a transition period in the open technology world. Most of us are at home on a Linux laptop and software-wise, it is one. For me? This works. I can use this as my actual phone's 'proxy', and it's my goal to puppet it into any function I don't currently have, within reason.

  • the collaborative world works off of demand. Pocket laptops and linux phones have been a nice distraction for long enough. They may soon become more of a saving grace.

    I'm not saying you'll be able to run Spyware Simulator 2000 on PostmarketOS. I'm more saying that any secondary device you use for foss software will be more focused upon as an actual decent alternative for getting work done without being spied on by capitalist nazis.

    These devices can run web browsers. That's 80% of your needs already taken care of and we haven't even left Firefox.

    CARRY TWO PHONES??!!

    What will the neighbors think!?

  • I readily await the visibility and interest this will give mobile linux development.
