They pirate and sell the service locally 🤣🤣

Show me the code where you found the evidence.

Our ISPs are too cheap and lazy to even try looking. I still use I2P, but only because I need to justify my tin foil hats collection.

I only use K9 on Android. Everything else, web-based.

I’m sorry, I should have been clearer. Yes, I meant for streaming. I also have all my favorite music downloaded and play them locally (sort of, self-hosted from my home server). But way back when I was part of the Spotify crowd I came across great songs I didn’t know about, so streaming is a great way to find those hidden jewels. I just don’t want to have any of those apps trying to mine a boatload of data constantly from my devices.

Is there anything like this for Android that you’re aware of? That would be awesome.

Then you must not be very bright. All my Logitech and Razer hardware just works on every Linux distro I jump on while distro hopping.

I suggest you flash via etcher and try again. That’s usually either a bad flash or secure boot making your life miserable.

Such a good call, lol.

He’s the guy you hear vexing rust in the video posted. While both languages have their pros and cons, he chooses to just blast this other guy by repeating the same crap over and over without letting him reply. Basically the kind of person with a “I win because I’m louder” demeanor.

I’m sorry you’re going through that bud. I’m flat out of tricks.

Can you try Boot mode on anything other than “quick”, and then F12 during boot see if that works?

That is the most sensible look into this so far.

Ted Ts’o is a prick with a god complex. I understand his experience is hard to match, we all have something in our lives we’re that good at, but that does not need to lead to acting like a fucking religious fanatic.

They have tried everything. They do get an A for effort though.

Yeah, I get the philosophy behind their actions and intent. They can audit that cloud PC all they want. In my computer, I’m lord, god and king, nobody gets to see what happens there but me and those I want to.

Where I work,~2,000 employees and contractors, I’m almost certain I’m the one person using Linux (Fedora) and refusing to use Windows (so they deployed a cloud Windows 365 instance for me to have access to the in-house platform).

I’m blessed to hold a position for which the company would have a really hard time replacing me, I think that’s why they haven’t booted me (chances are they will at some point, but I don’t care anymore).

It still blows my mind how the IT team tries to justify being locked into Microsoft, and then telling me I could potentially become a point of vulnerability, when my system is easily the most secure in the whole company and my habits make for little to no possibility of ever exposing anything outside of the company.

That’s what I did on my wife’s pc, and she’s had no issues with the dual boot BS Windows has created.

All they managed was to make the forks multiply 🤣🤣

I travel quite a bit for work, so for me it’s a life saver.

I play some pretty demanding games such as Cyberpunk, Elden Ring and Horizon: Zero Dawn, and while it’s no PS5, they run beautifully for such a small device.

The battery is not going to run me any of those games for more than an hour or so, but for that there are always those oldeis but goodies I emulate from NES all the way to PS2.

If like you say you’re not a gamer, which makes me assume you’ll play some games just to pass some time and kill some stress, I don’t think you can find a better device to spend a couple of hundreds on and feel like it was a gift.
