And Kandalf

That’s why I ended up installing ArcoLinux on my ThinkPad: it uses Calamares.

Count Binface is not the politician we deserve, but the politician we need.

I’m not sure, but I’m guessing this is actually Arial or Nimbus Sans or something.

I would have tried that if I had any. Somehow, I have laboratory grade chemicals in my room, but not a drop of orange oil in the entire house!

This! I just bought a water bottle, and it took the following measures just to get the residue from the label off:

• Soaking in warm, soapy water
• Scrubbing with an abrasive sponge
• Soaking in vinegar
• Scrubbing with Flash floor cleaner
• Immersion in boiling water for 30 mins
• Scrubbing with a Brillo pad
• WD-40
• 91% concentration laboratory-grade isopropanol

Chimera Linux?

CloudTube is the way!

I believe there are a few Linux phones with keyboards, but they’re not quite production-ready yet.

Then there’s me, reinstalling the OS because it’s quicker than installing the three months’ worth of updates I forgot about.

I use Zsh with the Oh My Zsh! framework, and I use a different theme depending on which subuserland I’m in, by customising ~/.zshrc. For example, I use the gentoo theme on Debian and its derivatives, agnoster on NixOS, darkblood on Arch, strug for Mageia, apple on my macOS device, aussiegeek on FreeBSD, and gallifrey on OpenBSD. Different themes helps me remember which package manager to use and which distro-specific commands will work.

I’ll send some screenshots in a bit, when I boot up my PC.

I like Zsh because of its tab completion and command history. I also quite like its plugins.

Before anyone asks, I have tried Fish before, and I prefer Zsh. I have tried configuring Bash before, and I prefer Zsh. I have played with Ksh and Tcsh on BSD, and I prefer Zsh. I used PowerShell a long time ago, and I prefer Zsh.

I’m not trying to be anonymous in this case. ProtonVPN and Windscribe don’t connect on my school’s WiFi, but Orbot punches a hole right through the firewall every time.

Good bot

Yeah, I switched to Invidious a long time ago. If you want an app, I’d also recommend NewPipe (for Android), and either Yattee (for iOS) or Piped (as a PWA).

I don’t know why I haven’t already, but I think it’s time I switch all of my GAFAM accounts to DDG addresses.

I really hate these guys. The exam board is petty, the content is hard, and they do bullshit like this.

Use ADB to remove Google and Samsung bloatware and tracking. Ask around for help.

You should be able to use Heimdall to unlock the bootloader, but there isn’t currently a build of LineageOS or DivestOS for this phone, so unfortunately you cannot yet flash a custom ROM (AFAIK). However, rooting should work if you need this (although it can hurt your security a bit).

I’d recommend removing Google Play Services and replacing it with microG, although this may be complicated.

The best solution, however, is probably to exchange the phone for a more versatile model, such as a Google Pixel or a Fairphone.
