/e/os/ on a Motorola One 5G Ace.

That would require that I use Gnome. Which would be worse than reinstalling everything.

I used to bother doing all of that too. I just found symlinking achieved the same results without a bunch of manually configuring of mount points.

Me neither. The more I dwell on it, the grumpier I’m getting. Distro hopping is a young man’s sport. I’ve got work to do.

Thankfully, I learned the hard way a long time ago that my files are almost entirely on a secondary drive and my home folders are all simply symlinks to folders there, so I won’t lose any data since that drive won’t be wiped. But it’s just such a pain in the butt to set up everything the way I like it.

I started using Manjaro long before all this crap started going down, and I’ve been holding on hoping this all gets sorted because I hate distto hopping.

But sadly I don’t think its going to happen. I’ve got a new PSU coming to fix a burnt out one that has left my desktop turned off and unupdated for two months. Might be time for an install of something new rather than updating afterwards.

I use it on an older Ticwatch C2+ with gadget bridge.

I like it. It works well for what I need it for. They just released 2.0, which means it’s still actively developed (though development is slow)

My only issue is that with newer versions of android, something about the bluetooth makes it disconnect randomly. Don’t know if that’s just my device, or my phone, or common. But I randomly have to forget the device and re-pair it. Which is kind of annoying.

“Edge-lord can’t get stolen game to work on linux while legit copies work just fine. Blames Linux.”

– Fixed your headline.

Checks and balances.

I know that it’s an unpopular opinion, but I firmly believe that we were at least marginally safer when the USSR was still a superpower acting as a check on American fuckery.

Once the USSR fell, US went masks off on the international stage because they had no reason to pretend to be the good guys anymore.

They convinced all their allies to disarm themselves, and then went full “nice country here…shame if something happened to it” the moment they were the only big dog left.

The world can’t re-arm itself fast enough as far as I’m concerned.

nano is usually built in. Adding another one is just redundant if all you’re using it for is editing an occasional config file.

Honestly never understood the hate for it. Who cares? Petty, stupid, nerd-wars over little crap like a text editor is the reason average people don’t even consider linux.

That all actually started after World War 1, to be honest.

It was during the first world war that all of the European powers spent literally all their money fighting each other, with both sides then reaching out to the United States for loans to continue fighting each other, which America was of course happy to oblige.

The repayment of those loans constituted the largest transfer of wealth in human history from Europe to the Americas, setting the stage for the American war machine to be completed prior to world war two.

Kathryn Bigelow’s most under-rated film is almost upon us…just 30 years later than we thought.

Also…if you haven’t seen that movie…go watch it. It’s low-key one of her best.

If its coming out of the Trump Admins mouths, its a lie…

Unless I’m mistaken, I’m pretty sure Iran is trying to very carefully target only US infrastructure in those countries (air bases, embassies, consulates, etc…)

It’s a dangerous line to try to tread, but it sends a message that I think they desperately need to send. “We’re not against you, just against the assholes using your land as launching points.”

Frankly I’d do the same thing.

I’m more interested in seeing what happens with the second part of his threat, that he’ll “use those bases whether spain likes it or not”.

I believe that’s called an incursion on foreign soil.

My last few phones have been Motorolas and I’ve been very very happy with them.

My only issue was that back then, I wasn’t really paying attention to alternative OSs like Graphene, Lineage or e/os and was therefore not really too concerned with ROM support/chip set. When I switched over to e/os, two of my Motorola’s (including the one I WANT to use with it) has no ROM support because it’s running a Mediatek chipset. So I’m using my second to last one while my nice new one collects dust.

Moving forward I’ll be paying more attention to Qualcomm vs Mediatek.

at one time he was trustworthy, and then just went to shit.

Enshittification has been around for a very very long time.

By that same logic, the Italians have a right to the entire middle east because the Roman Empire engulfed it. Then the Ottoman’s came and took it from them, so hey…I guess Turkey has a right to the entire middle east as well now.

Fuck Zionism.

At this point there is nothing that they could do to make Creation Engine feel “new”. I don’t understand why they keep beating that dead horse.

A couple of months ago, I had some extra money, so I bought Starfield because I had an itch to go back into my Crimson Fleet character.

The problem was that a couple of weeks before that, I had also purchased a game that I had wanted for years, but could never justify spending the high price of new games on, Red Dead Redemption 2. In comparison, Starfield just felt so…lazy… in ways both big and small, beyond the common issues like repetitive dungeons, barren worlds, loading screens, etc…

The biggest thing I noticed immediately was the effect of bumping into people as you’re walking. If you compare a Rockstar Game (Or even an assassin’s creed game), where npcs will make a comment, will move out of the way, get upset, etc… Whereas in Bethesda can’t be bothered to do anything except slide you to the right when bumping into a character, who doesn’t react or flinch in any way.

I started noticing those little things fucking everywhere. And I have to believe that little limitations like that are because it’s running on an engine that is older than dirt.

This was honestly my biggest fear for a lot of FOSS applications.

Not necessarily in a malicious way (although there’s certainly that happening as well). I think there’s a lot of users who want to contribute, but don’t know how to code, and suddenly think…hey…this is great! I can help out now!

Well meaning slop is still slop.
