Here is a list of most banking apps and whether they work or not. I’ve been using GrapheneOS for a while and haven’t encountered major problems. Only thing I wish I knew beforehand is that multi-user profiles are more cumbersome than what most people say.

Oh I know about alpine, sadly it didn’t “click” the same way void did and felt more like a distro to use in embedded systems or similar space constrained situations. Gentoo on the other hand I like, but the initial setup + waiting for stuff to compile put me off of it. Maybe I’ll try it again sometime with all precompiled packages.

Void is my favourite distro, although I haven’t used it for a while. Extremely fast package manager, rolling release but not bleeding edge, super simple, very fun to tinker with (more than Arch imo). I stopped using it because I wanted something more popular for easier troubleshooting. But if I ever get a secondary PC/laptop I’ll probably start using it again.

Plymouth would be what you’re looking for. You’d have to find an XP theme or create one yourself.

I never see toffeeshare mentioned. P2P, encrypted, no size limit. Only problem is you can’t send folders, only files, but that’s easily solved with tarballs or RARs.

We get OEM Samsung batteries. Not for Oneplus last time I checked. The more popular the brand the higher the likelihood for original parts.

I work at a phone repair shop (not Samsung certified), our suppliers sell us new genuine batteries. So maybe ask around at one near you. Or get one from ifixit, I replaced my Oneplus 6’s battery with their aftermarket one and it works great.

Not unintuitive, but thinking about it from a beginner standpoint, calamares-based systems are way easier to ‘get’. These distros don’t ask for domain names, proxies, usage surveys etc. This stuff isn’t that complicated, but they add an extra level of things you need to worry about if you’ve never used Linux before, which is the kind of person who this flow chart is made for.

All of what you said is true, I’m just cheap. Don’t feel like dropping money on a low end card just to have it struggle @1080p in new games and “mid” range still feels inflated. Might also be regional pricing where I live is just more expensive. Ever since Mindfactory stopped shipping outside germany I can’t find decent online stores, local or otherwise.

Not necessarily in the EU though, lol

I’ve been checking out GPUs to replace my 1060 since the pandemic and still haven’t found something compelling to upgrade to, price/performance wise. I guess I got spoiled by my 1060 but low end cards are anemic and mid tier is overpriced. 7700 and 7800 will hopefully be somewhat intersting.

In the article it mentions that the SoC might have been chosen because on it’s extended software support of 8 years. Industrial tier electronics also usually cost more than consumer counterparts, so unlikely a cost cutting measure

Zenfone 10 got released in july this year. I’d buy it on the spot if the software support was longer. The only phone in recent memory that has good specs and also looks decent

Maybe check out Void Linux as well, the creator used to work on NetBSD before starting Void

you can type anything you want in both fields to skip it. a keysmash is my preferred method

Well, Win10 Home and Pro EOL is late 2025, so it’s tecnically correct…

Modern Gnome should in theory be able to adapt to any (reasonable) display size. So anything with recent enough repos would be a good fit

Right now I’ve only removed the oldest driver, and steam opened fine. No complaints in it’s terminal output. For now I’m going to test a few games and once I remove a few more versions I’ll edit the post.

I checked a few and all of them are bound to steam, nothing else, apart from the last one that’s also being used by Blender. At this point i think I’ll try uninstalling the oldest and check if steam still works. After that I’ll work my way forward. Thanks

One example would be HDR, here and here are two articles I found after a quick search. I’m no dev, but I know HDR is a complicated beast and more importantly not critical infrastructure so community developments are slow or non-existant. If you check who has been contributing to HDR it’s always big corps like Red Hat, AMD and Valve.
