Double check your power supply. Use a good power supply device. Disconnect and reconnect all the cables now. This is a frequent cause of all kinds of flashing errors.

Ubuntu Touch is optimized to reduce unnecessary background processes, making your phone last longer on a single charge.

Wait… did he just say that Ubuntu runs faster than Android on an Android phone?

This is not something that needs balance.

And they have quite different kinds of petty:

When Linus gets petty, then there’s a proper rant, somebody gets red in the face (but you don’t get to see the pics), and some news interns can write headlines.

When politicians get petty, then people in foreign countries are killed.

Then they should try to free themselves from it.

And governments should wise up and exempt them from any kind of petty stuff.

It is not good for the kernel and it’s team to suddenly have to kowtow to Usamerican politics.

It’s also great to live in Switzerland, but not everybody is doing it.

OK so you just need to stay logged in - Solved :)

Go to youtube and work through a few of these. …for dummies tutorials.

How can i get it to work in these conditions?

Borrow an android phone from some friend/neighbor for an hour…

Either a defective RAM or a physically broken (bent) mainboard.

Bot posting?

Nah… vim users fight emacs users, but not nano users. Wrong league. We do not beat little children ;)

LOL It is one of the most well known things about perl that the language is as mighty as probably no other programming language.

Only 5 years ago, everybody would be singing and shouting “perl”.

Nowadays it is python that has taken this position (even though Perl is still there and can do so much more).

Steam library

media library

Wonderful.

But these are libraries. Not single files.
