Put LineageOS on it!

Classic Lemmy comment

Main-line Linux phones are really not the way, at least at the moment. Android is fine, AOSP really is an amazing project and easily one of the most impressive software projects ever advanced by humanity. AOSP-derivatives like LineageOS or GrapheneOS are just as much FOSS as any traditional Linux distribution.

Also doesn’t really happen to LCDs. It depends on the liquid crystal alignment technology to a degree and the backlight, but realistically, an LCD will not fail without operator error.

There is also OpenHAB, but I think Home Assistant is the more mature one of the two.

And apparently Microsoft originally wanted to buy the rights all the way back in the 80s! It only took them 40 years…

The oldest continuously operating university is in Bologna. The one that the post is about was actually a mosque and did not become a university until less than a century ago.

And Rogue. I rarely hear Rogue mentioned but it’s my favourite. I find the story the most appealing, and it comes with so much moral ambiguity.

There’s trash and then there’s even trashier trash. The Saudi government is definitely trashier than the American one.

Not only tools, Mojang themselves eventually provided obfuscation maps.

I have been daily driving LineageOS since 2023 on a Samsung Galaxy S10+, and before that experimented a little with CyanogenMod. Number 1 reason is privacy and security. I don’t want Google spyware or any other proprietary software on my phone (though I have to live with proprietary drivers, but at least they are abstracted away behind HAL).

Those probably are the intern’s doing

There’s nothing wrong with writing code in a text editor. Plain vim is the best imo

The Swiss might be a bad example. They are easily the craziest, most nationalistic people in Europe. I’ve dealt a lot with Swiss from all kinds of backgrounds over several years, and with foreigners living and working in Switzerland, and I can confidently say that I have never experienced anything comparable to how normal and ingrained xenophobia and an endless vicious hate for foreigners are in Swiss culture. The average Swiss seems to despise foreigners (who make about 50% of the workforce, btw) and views themselves and their country as superior to anything that might exist in the universe. This is not only a rural problem, it is common in several cities as well, perhaps most prominently in Lucerne. Their xenophobia has also been institutionalised with the Swiss police of several cantons enjoying the harassment of foreigners as their favourite pastime.

Go outside and get a life. How can you be so miserable.

God forbid that people have opinions… Life could be fun, but we don’t want that! Seriously, your only reason for existence on social media seems to make other people’s day worse. That is miserable.

No it doesn’t, that’s your paranoia and your own preconceptions speaking.

From my experience, the inverse is true. The only truly poor people I’ve met were very rude.

Don’t be too happy. For every such attempt there are countless highly technical papers on how to filter out the poisoning, and they are very effective. As the other commenter said, this is an arms race.

It is also not the norm for small business owners, so what is your point?
