I guess you know shit’s rough when Manjaro is the sane option

I don’t understand why anyone still watches him.
Like, is his commentary just that insightful and entertaining? Or is it just watching how far it’ll go?

It’s nice to know that my multi-paragraph unhinged rants on Lemmy get read by other people sometimes lmao.

The solution is making noise. Talking to your local regulators, making them know this is an issue worth looking into.
The solution is pushing your government to do their fucking job and regulate these companies so they can’t take blatant anti-costumer measures.

I’m not saying GrapheneOS isn’t a solution, it absolutely is, what I’m saying is that it isn’t the be-all and end-all, nor is it available for everybody, and coming into the comments to say “just buy a pixel duh” is smug as shit, and also missing the forest for the trees.
The solution is stopping Google from rolling out this change so everybody can enjoy the increased privacy sideloaded, FOSS apps bring, not just Graphene users.

Hell, Graphene themselves are suffering from Google’s fuckery in relation to security patches and AOSP. (Image, Original Link)
Getting Google in a big antitrust lawsuit so they’ll stop being actively hostile to projects built on top of Android would be very beneficial to Graphene, don’t you think?

Wanna talk demoralizing? How about hearing “just buy a pixel and install GOS” on every thread on this topic completely ignoring whole countries where this isn’t exactly feasible?
And when you try to point that out you get the most dismissive answer ever completely ignoring import taxes and a zillion other factors that make even used Pixels cost more than brand new phones that are head and shoulders above them specs wise?

Demoralizing you? Be so for real dude. You really think I’m part of a psyop trying to make you give up your OS? Rest easy, I won’t reach thru the screen and snatch your phone.
Just know Graphene needs no negative marketing. If every user walks around talking like this about the project they’ll have plenty already.

You can’t even buy a damn Pixel on Brazil, one of the countries set to receive the change first on Google’s roadmap.
Being stuck on a single phone brand is never gonna be the solution.

Specifically for Syncthing, there’s Syncthing Tray. It’ll put a little icon on your icon tray (or since you’re on KDE you can use the Plasmoid and put it wherever you want) and you can configure it to change colors depending on the status of Syncthing, send notifications when it finishes a sync or can’t connect, see a detailed view of the sync status and the folders, etc.
It’s very customizable, I’ve been using it for a while. Check it out!

Congrats on making an app!

For medals. Lmao these losers.
You know the shits were prolly looking like this

Obrigado por tomar o tempo de escrever um guia tão bem detalhado 👍

DDR6? What? Didn’t DDR5 just start becoming common?

Just started using this the other day. The official Nextcloud Notes app would crash when connecting to my instance, this app connected and synced my notes instantly.

pretty easy to install (i would argue, even more easy than many mainstream distributions)

Last I poked at it, it had no Live environment. I really how it got so popular if people can’t even try it before wiping their machine. VMs?

This is so sick, thank you!

Whenever I go incognito on desktop I see the new design, not a fan.
They say its “obscuring less content” yet the buttons are 2x bigger, I don’t get it.

PS: Great, it just rolled out to my main account. Blergh 👎

Become ungovernable just like that dude

I fucking wish my country had better public transport dude.
Nothing more soul-crushing than waking up early as fuck, dragging my half-awake ass to the bus stop full of people and getting smushed in a bus for 2h. I was walking into the office ready to punch the first mf that bothered me about anything, which wasn’t really fair because it wasn’t their fault (but they also sucked ass so they almost fucking deserved it).

All in all the only thing I want from my governors is better public transport, yet lately they’re taking measures that actively worsen it, somehow 🫩

I should point out that even though Limewire used to be a “legit” business, the current interation is little more than crypto grifters using a nostalgic brand to prop up their tokens, and they’ve already been doing shady shit like taking over snapdrop.net (previously local network file sharing) with little to no warning to the end users. They’re in many blocklists for a reason, y’know.

For more information, please check out the “Name reuse by unrelated companies” section of their Wikipedia page.

go get the new release for Mac (which does not auto-update).

I was gonna suggest you get Homebrew but it seems their Gimp package is not pulling in the binaries for Apple Silicon yet, so never mind…

It’s the indexers. I’ve had many day 1 releases from them that were perfectly fine.

What to use for Calendar and Contacts management?
Yes I know about Radicale, I’m talking desktop UI wise because fuck doing any substantial event organizing on a phone.
