Isn’t maintaining LFS a pain for the long run?

What the article doesn’t mention is that the watch also has a LTPO display and the refresh rate can dial way down (especially in AOD mode) to conserve battery life.

Wired review.

I thought - - no-preserve root also needed to be added as an argument for self destruct to completely work.

Atleast in charging standards that Oneplus and that some manufacturers use called SuperVooc, two battery cells are charged simultaneously. Whilst fast charging is inherently bad for the battery, it’s not that bad as it’s made out to be.

This is the only true answer here. Answers like Bandcamp (which hardly has a repository big enough) or switching to Tidal aren’t practical. OP paid for his music, and deserves access to it.

I have Amazon Prime as part of Prime Unlimited but holy Christ, have I never gotten their web app to stream in Linux. As long as greediness on part of these lousy corporations live on, piracy would remain the only true option.

IIRC, one can integrate Tidal with music players like Strawberry on nix too, I think.

Samsung isn’t under any sort of pressure. No one is forcing their hand to give updates. Their entry level phones still get 2 years only. Mid level 4 years. Where Samsung loses is price competiveness. Emerging markets are very price conscious. Chinese OEMs offer way better bang for buck than Samsung ever does. Heck, for a random mid level price, a Chinese OEM will give OLED screen, 120 Hz display (which Samsung has only for Flagships) and way faster charging(with an actual charger; and no, I don’t believe Samsung gives a darn about the environment by not bundling chargers, they only do so so they can sell their massively overpriced chargers).

Ironic that the entry level Lumia 520 was more modular than these attempts.

I wouldn’t hazard that. The average Joe is not going around installing random apps from third party sites until they are actively looking for it, like modded games or stuff and get a virus in the process. Many such reported apps have very low download counts on Play Store and in fact, just fly under Google’s radar. Google tries to present Play store as a safe walled garden but often fails.

Huh, I am hearing this source for the first time. I mostly used Mobilism and most of the apps from there used to come clean on Virus Total as well.

I also thought they had stopped making phones until I saw this review. But looks like their smartphone division is a shadow of its former self now. I think it is their only smartphone released this year, and there are no update promises either. There is a 3.5mm jack and micro SD slot which is good to have at this price point, but nothing really distinguishes this phone. I am not sure if this is an international release or just available in certain markets only.

I think these guys might be able to hack through the process and get stuff done and think getting other people to follow them will be trivial as well. But just because they didn’t mess up, doesn’t mean other people won’t. A large majority might end up hurting themselves if they follow in their route.

Isn’t medical tourism a thing in the US too; like you can fly to a developing country, get your treatment done by top specialists there and fly back to US and the cost would still be lower than what it would have taken to do in home country.

I just wrote it because it rhymed with the now memed 2004 anti piracy announcement You wouldn’t download a car that was rightfully criticized.

C++ was my second programming language after BASIC, if that still qualifies as a programming language these days.

I think Asus Zenfone was an option for that. But for the newer updated model, even they went for a larger screen.

Unexpected factorial

Realme tested a 320W charging brick recently. It charged the battery in under 4 mins.

There are two models, the base and Plus one. Motorola claims that the latter had it’s sound tuning done with help of Bose and apparently, reviews praised it’s sound quality. However, the ANC is mediocre and atleast one feature(spatial head tracking to give more realistic audio) is limited to Motorola phones only.

Their case is lighter and more compact than mine Sennheiser one(but then, the Momentum series is incredibly bulky). I think Nothing also has decent series of earbuds in the same price range though their flashy looks might not be for everyone.
