My household usage is well over 2TB/mo. It's not unrealistic to expect individual usage to be fairly high outside if the house.

Because they can. I have the same gripe.

What's so different between 1.22 and 1.23 though? I just updated my client to 1.23 because of this post and I see very little difference.

That's the difference between ARM devices where manufacturers put everything on a single chip, and x86 PCs where everything is standardized.

My wife prefers her Macs. She's got the infamous A1706 MacBook Pro (I've already had to fix a few things on it), and a 27" iMac from the last run of Intel based machines.

But she does recognize the walled garden for what it is, and her seeing me effectively make my machines do what I want is making her want an Android phone 😅

So glad I built my 5800X3D/7900XTX system when I did. It's got plenty of horsepower for the next several years for my usage.

Because kei trucks are obviously death traps

AI.

This is just a list of "but I'm not winning so it's not fairrrrrrrrrr" whining (whinging?)

"Yes, the planet got destroyed. But for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders"

Those "next-next-next" installers are doing exactly what you described under the hood. However, with Android devices, there are so many variants and drivers that a single installer couldn't possibly cover all of them.

The Lineage OS devs make solid guides that are pretty easy to follow though. If your device is supported, there will be a guide for it. Yes, you have to use the command line for some parts. That's hardly the hardest part.

I've been on Firefox for a very long time because of shit like this. I run FF on my phone as well. Might look into Fennec.

But you do have things to hide. Everybody does. That doesn't make it bad.

A sensible response. Windows has its pros, and Linux has its cons. I personally don't care for Windows anymore, but that's because I grew up with Linux in the home alongside Windows, ultimately chose Linux despite the cons.

TIL what "Air" means in the brand name.

That's all a NAS has ever been, just a PC that specializes in storage. "NAS" isn't a specific product, either - it's whatever hardware you set up to function as such. My own NAS is a 2014 Mac mini running OMV (Debian 12 based) with a 4-bay locking drive dock attached to it. Works great.

I took images of my gaming PC drives (500GB, 2TB) onto a 4TB spinner, then shoved that spinner into my NAS's dock. With 2 minutes of point and click configuration, I can access those images from my gaming PC's new Linux install over the network to copy whatever data I might need. Easy peasy. No Synology needed for that.

Short term profits reign king once again

Gotta make the imaginary money line go up somehow

Airbnb was started to offer up your free space to someone for a night for a bit of cash, and that was it. Then the morons found out and bought whole ass houses specifically to rent out on Airbnb.

People ruin everything.

Oh yeah, for sure. There's no reason for that partition to be wiped out though.

My SO has had several and really liked them until they broke or got lost (the phones' quality really aren't to blame here). I've offered the Sony Xperia 10 VI to my dad last Christmas and it doesn't come with much bloat at all, I would call it good.

Sony Xperia phones are great, until you unlock the bootloader and it wipes the camera software, leaving you with a camera that takes worse pics than a literal potato.

But if you want a completely bloat-free phone, you can't beat Google Pixel flashed with GrapheneOS.

This is my plan for my P9PXL. I'm weaning myself off of Google's services, but I need to find something comparable to Keep. I use Keep for a lot of random notes and ideas, and so far nothing I've found comes close (Nextcloud Notes included).

I'm genuinely curious: what about it is "too hard"?
