I join the adjacents club with my THR5 (also, non C)! I have always been wondering if I could upgrade it to get closer to the THR10. It's so portable but therefor lacks a couple of knobs. When using the USB connection and some unoffici

The catch depends a lot on the context that you're considering. Trying to replace Microsoft Office as a whole by a drop-in replacement like LibreOffie may work better or worse depending on who uses it. I've never used anything but

I remember having run netsurf from toltec. Netsurf isn't fun on many websites but it should be enough for rendering HTML content from RSS, no? Terminal emulators and lynx/elinks/links/w3c work, too. And terminal RSS read

Thank you very much for this writeup! I've had my rM2 since 2020 and enjoyed the hacking community a lot. I've since lost track - at some point I updated the firmware because I wanted the automatic shapes feature from upstream an

I've just recently switched to GrapheneOS and I must say it has been very convenient. That is, coming from the hassle of flashing LineageOS to Samsung devices. Obviously, buying a device and using it as it is will always be the easiest
