  • NotJustBikes uses Linux!

  • I was surprised to see him promoting Linux as well. People should not be shy about this.

  • The power of Linux

  • I think on laptops Windows i trying to encrypt the drives. Maybe online if you are logged in to a Microsoft account for bitlocker to save the encryption key. Encrypting the drives should be your decision to take.

  • Mandriva. Yes, old and no longer exist. Forst distro i started to to use permantly on desktop is Fedora. The server has always been Ubuntu since the Mandriva time when I first learned about Linux. I think 2005. CS server etc. Desktop was 2024 when MS screwed up Windows too much

  • Lenovo Cuts the Windows Tax and offers Cheaper Laptops with Linux Pre-installed

  • I like they give the option!

    Since I am dualbooting just to be able to check if it is a software issue or not in. Then i dont know what I would choose. Mainly use Linux. It is fun when I figure out the headset problem is a cable were the connections are 20 cm away from each other since it is hanging from the table.

  • The Galaxy A56 is the worst mid-range phone I used in 2025

  • Even if they need special drivers for each device, they have solved it. Lineage OS supports tons of devices. How did they get the drivers? that does not matter. But they got it working or the project would be pretty dead. So the drivers problem is solved, now just make a good next-next-next guide.

    Sure, Lineage OS does not support all kind of devices. But I think they can still have a common, user-friendly, installer process even though the drivers are different.

    I am guessing that they will make a standard for ARM in the future so it will work like any other PC where they can just plug in any random usb device or similar and it just works.

  • Not sure why that matter. Google manage to run Android on the ARM device and we know Android is open source so just copy that over to the custom build for Lineage OS.

    Also why not make a standard to solve it for all OSes? We have ARMv8 as one standard.

  • Somehow it is possible for both Windows and Linux on PC to get an installation guide with next next next installer click guide. You dont get that on Android ever.

    Ideally it should be as easy so anyone could install it that want to. Today it is simply too hard. Alternative rooms dont have chance to be mainstream without that.

  • too hard

    There are tons of things you have to do succeed to get it to boot Lineage OS or similar. Last time I checked there were no next-next-next installation guide on the phone. It is line trying to install arch linux without the arch installer.

    Yes, I really want to use anything else than Android by Google. Lineage OS would offer more updates. But also possible do install other apps as I have heard it means rooting it which always is required to get Lineage OS?

    I can install debian server on PC. No problem. But on smartphones you are suppose to do some unlocking of bootloader? Then install some TRWP or something to boot into. There you have some unzip tool that you have to find tree(!) files and install them in the right order and be lucky you picked the exact right one(WHY is it not enough with ONE file and wipe/clean is done automatically?). Then you have to do something about recovery I think. IF you succeed installation(I have never succeeded that far), you have to install g-something to get google play to work so you can install apps and get them in working shape. Then when there is a new Linage OS android version you have to repeat everything AGAIN. This is really madness how much extra work and hard it has to be...

    WHY can't it just be in Android by Google to just install an app called installer Lineage OS - click confirm installation and let it do the rest?!

  • Good replacement for Google Calendar?

  • Tutanota calender app. Works offline. Encrypted. Sync with tutanota login so very easy to setup.

    Use tutanota webb to view calender on pc. Might work as well with their desktop app(not tried)

  • Want to but can't install it. It is too hard.

  • How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy?

    Jump

  • I don't want that. Trump just need help to make good decisions. Until he finds it - he should not make any decisions by himself. Use the kongress where the different parties votes. And please Trump. Don't come up with any more ideas - you have already made too many decisions.

  • Maybe add 20% tariffs to that

  • Which areas of Linux would benefit most from further standardization?

    Jump

  • Configuration gui standard. Usually there is a config file that I am suppose to edit as root and usually done in the terminal.

    There should be a general gui tool that read those files and obey another file with the rules. Lets say it is if you enable this feature then you can't have this on at the same time. Or the number has to be between 1 and 5. Not more or less on the number. Basic validation. And run the program with --validation to let itself decide if it looks good or not.

  • Your new account will be online. Can access OneDrive and everything Microsoft Online offers. That means anyone with internet access can try to login to it so it has to be very secure.

    Windows Hello can be used for local login. But I agree with you. I would love to be able to access my Keepassxc vault during the login process. But that might be hard to archive so better to use Windows Hello.

  • It is insecure to create one account with username and password during the setup process. The password should always come from your password manager. But you would not have access to your password manager during the installation process.

    Please remove this step.
