Wayland had been around for a while, but I feel your pain. Overall it seems much more performant if that makes it any better

Great if you install Graphene!

You can actually buy MagSafe cases for pixels. And GrapheneOS makes it very nice

Commented elsewhere but you can still get the Union made USA pants; model B01. Avoid pretty much everything else I will have to try these Baileys though, how do they fit?

I can’t believe I’m chiming in on HN about work pants… The B01 are the only pants still Union made in the USA. AFAIK they still are durable as hell, I’m wearing them now. The rest (mostly stretchy but some normal ‘washed’ duck) are imported

Something I've done to help with this is wrap the bleeder threads with PTFE tape. It will make a one time seal on the non-taper threads, but it's enough for a flush

Hey fyi and for posterity, on SteamDeck I have the same issue and the cause is the same as outlined above (modern standby). I would love to hear more from folks who don't have this out of the box. The fix is simple but I have to wonder

I came here to add this, as a x230 user, the other laptop that has Mercedes diesel like longevity is the 2012 Macbook Pro. I've kept numerous alive for friends.

Reading this on an X230! Check out a Kingsener battery (8400mAh) I get about 8 hours of mild use. [link]( https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832160992805.html )

Doesn't Vault self-promote in the case of single node failure? I noticed you mention Vault lives in the US, I'm sure you've already heard of this pattern, but Vault (Enterprise) supports [multi-region clusters for performance

Sorry for naivety, what is HELO in this context? I've been running a mail server with the other aforementioned things set correctly and tested; I've been able to reliably deliver mail to all of the big senders for years now, albei

FWIW I've been using Steam+Proton on Arch for a month now, and it's like fucking magic. Other than the peculiarity of having two AMD graphics drivers to pick from, I'd say it's 90% there. No crashes, glitches, etc after

The former is true, KDE ships with a clipboard manager with history, macos just has copy/paste. You need something like Maccy to manage history.

Don't bother with the naysayers and dickheads. I appreciate you trying to do something here for old devices, and 80% solutions are ok for most of us. (I suppose postmarketOS is similar in spirit) Does building a GSI make sense to cover

Are those keyboard shortcuts part of the LSP server?

I'm so happy to see that it's easy to keep the E01 out of the dump. It looks like it's only about ~6 years old?

Hey! We spoke on your Github https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/issues/2... Bootloader unlocking worked out of the box, and GSI installed without a hitch issues right now: - The flip doesn&#x

I just bought one of these and installed a GSI from phhusson Unfortunately there are a few things that keep me from daily use with the GSI, notably the lid switch doesn't work without the stock firmware. Less importantly, the front scr

I have an iphone SE 2016 because I too felt that new Androids were too big, switched in 2019. If too many people are upset at the price maybe you could have an Android Mini-a like the Pixel line. I had the first Pebble and have fond memorie

What's the proper course of action for folks like us? Report them to a GPL violations hotline? I don't ask in jest, I just was arguing with CAT (yes the heavy equipment people) about getting ROM/sources for their Android ROM,

The whole GSI thing is allowing me to mess with ASOP roms on phones that would never have a customized Lineage OS release. Shoutout to Phhusson https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases

Do they also have iPhones? It could be as simple as the Find My network identifying that you'd been near each other (still creepy).

I think Element ( https://element.io/ ) is worth looking at for anyone who wants something decentralized. Unfortunately I have exactly 1 contact who uses it, but that was true of Signal as well 8 years ago
