My phone received an update a few days ago and it went from Miui to HyperOS. Now my phone asks me to accept privacy policies even to change my default wallpaper. Fuck you Xiaomi
My 3rd gen i3 laptop has: dead battery, broken screen(about 1/3 of the screen is dead), loose USB ports that work when they feel like it and a decrepit HDD that was slow even when it was new. I have it for emergencies, but I don't think it's worth rebuilding it.
Might this be the one for my father? He drowns in Windows, I don't want to think what Linux can do to his brain. I kept a Windows SSD to help him troubleshoot any problem he stumbled upon, but it died last week and all my attempts to install it on another SSD were met with the setup asking me for drivers, no matter what I tried to provide, I never got past that screen. So I don't know what to do, I guess I'll just wait and see, but I'm already eyeing some options.
I paid for it for a while some time ago, but stopped because I don't play many recent games anymore. I can wait for the games to be very cheap and buy them on Steam or GOG, and also play more indie games than ever, and I also have retro gaming.
It was obvious from the start that they would start rising prices as soon as they got to a critical number of subscribers, it was too good to be true for a long time. I think the regular subscription was something like 5€ a month when I used it, now the price has doubled and it's going to keep rising without a doubt.
Great, I'm sure nothing bad is going to come out of this, like everything else deepfake-related.
