  • Screw it, I’m installing Linux

  • I broke CachyOS once and have learned to be more careful. First distro in 25 years so lots of learning to do. Was on Windows until 10 EOL.

    Migi says not to buy a pebble if you expect it to last >5 years

  • My £30 Xiaomi MiBand used to last 12-14 days between charges and is now circa 7 data after 3.5 years of daily use. Let's see how it fares hitting 5 years but this is the cheap option I went for and didn't expect repairability. Spending more I'd expect more

  • Google Reader was my goto and when they killed that I tried a bunch of others and none quite hit the same. Gutted that one hit the Google graveyard.

  • M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location

    Jump

  • Yeah my current Windows machine only gets rebooted upon updates, but previously I've noted needing to do it more frequently. My work laptop I shut down out of habit because they only supplied me with an 8gb ram device.

    When I'm forced to move to Win 11 on my personal PC I'll move to Linux instead.

  • We need dimensions from raised bit to not raised bit dammit

  • M4 Mac Mini Power Button Has New Bottom Location

    Jump

  • I have never bought an iPhone or a Mac and I agreed at first that this seems an extra step. But you surely wouldn't have to flip it over? The device will be raised enough it appears that a finger could slide in the gap and hit that button. But maybe I don't know shit or have slender fingers or something but feels like it could be operated without flipping.

    What am I missing?

    Still a daft design but yeah...

  • My body releases some toxic sheets sometimes.

  • YouTube confirms your pause screen is now fair game for ads

    Jump

  • Cheers for that. I had other third party apps way back in the day but they lacked some features. Will check it out.

  • I went back to an old APK of Twitch and refuse to update to the current dumpster fire.

  • Microsoft's 'Recall' feature can't be uninstalled after all

    Jump

  • I do like the convenience of Windows and I'm still on W10, when it loses support I'll be switching to Linux too.

    Change my mind

    Jump

  • Even then Nexus and early Pixels I used had pretty meh battery experiences. The highlights now are the cameras but there's too much AI crap for my liking and Exynos bones put me off. Let's see what's about when my Zenfone 10 starts ageing. It's been a quirky, mildly buggy (mainly Telegram crashes) but otherwise solid experience, with meh cameras vs the Pixel and Samsung offerings. Stabilisation on videos has been solid though thanks to the gimbal.

  • I got Google to give me a full refund before my 6P bootlooped so I bought a Pixel XL. No Pixels since for me. Oneplus 7T Pro then Zenfone 10.

  • Is Telegram really an encrypted messaging app?

    Jump

  • Yeah I mean if you started one. If you went in with a secret chat in the first place then it wouldn't be an issue. And so it's one extra click vs. starting a normal chat. I hope it hasn't inconvenienced you more than it's taken for all these replies.

  • And this one time at Yamahband Camp.

  • Microsoft’s controversial Windows Recall feature is coming back in October

    Jump

  • Thanks! My cousin used pop and was a fan tbf. I do like stability but also hoping, as I don't work on my personal PC, that some instability would revitalise my enjoyment of tinkering. I have become used to the comforts of stability as I've aged. Haven't really played with Linux since the Red Hat 7 days..! I used to use Unix back then for FORTRAN but yeah of late just forgotten everything.

  • It's another contender for sure.

  • Just some performance I've seen people get from it and the nvidia bits. Still need to research before I decide though.

  • Congratulations all.

    Jump

  • Be friendlier with my nvidia GPU instead of a diceroll every time there's an update!

  • I am keeping Win 10 until I can't safely anymore then Linux may be my next stop. Been looking at CachyOS for gaming.
