  • Nixos.
    The ability to have my whole system in a git repo is what i have been looking for when i did not know it.
    Steep freaking curve though and the documentation kinda blows. But its the distro ive spent the longest on apart from Arch, and i feel quote at home even though most stuff is done differently.

  • I believe so, yes. From my understanding, google blocks custom roms from being able to use the service.

    I've heard before that with root you can spoof it, but its not easy or convenient.

  • My experiences come from using Calyx for a couple years in the past and I've been using Graphene for a few years as well now.

    You lose a couple of things. The main ones have already been mentioned by others (GPay and Android Auto). Theres some other stuff you might miss. Now Playing doesnt work, AI camera features, weather on lock screen, etc.
    Most of the stuff you might miss are annoyances, and some can be worked around fully with other apps. Nothing too major. With microG or Sandboxed google play, none of the apps i want/need to use are broken. That wasnt the case even a few years ago on microG, but things have gotten a lot better.

  • Soulseek to get the music, Musicbrainz Picard to standardize the formatting and fix metadata if it isnt already there

  • In my opinion what hes saying is true, but has to be taken with a grain of salt. The choice of the word "pointless" is a little harsh but i understand what he means. They are only derivatives that dont accomplish anything that the distro they forked cant accomplish, ergo they are useless because you could make Ubuntu on debian.
    As for why debian and arch are the best, they are the two most well established community maintained distros. That means they have the most people working on them, the most support out there on the internet when you encounter issues, they tend to be the most stable, AND they have no corporate backing which can be seen as "evil" by some people (like Chris in this video).

  • Why not just go with some classic wired closed backs (ex: audio-technica ath-m50x)? They tend to keep a lot of noise out. If ANC is a must, i cant really suggest anything as i find most implementations annoying, but im sure there are wired headphones with ANC.
    Seems like going wireless would limit your options A LOT with that 12h requirement

  • People are right on here, losing weight can make your feet skinnier.
    However the fact that you walk barefoot is what caught my attention. Im a barefoot runner, and your feet's arch becomes more pronounced as you train like that. I assume walking would lead to the same results. So yeah, being barefoot all the time does make your feet smaller, and starting to wear shoes again all the time would make that arch go away over time

  • Apparently people dont know that whitepapers were not invented by Satoshi 😂

  • I get that its hyperbole. Its basically too much hyperbole though in my opinion. Its not worth that much to be respectful in conversation.
    Also fuck you for that last part. "God damn all males are a danger, have you never heard of x serial killer" is how you sound.
    Being a psychopath and being transgender are two completely different things.

  • Other than a dummy google account i doubt it

  • When exactly does it crash? Can you just not launch it? Cause i managed to launch it, create an account and login without any tweaking whatsoever on my Google profile

  • I dont mind testing it out. Is it the Planet Fitness Workouts app?

  • The article by LeDevoir seems to be saying that the 1.5C will be reached by 2034. Still bad, but we have not reached the 1.5C yet

  • Im due for an upgrade and was waiting for this since they announced 7 years of security updates (makes it such a better value than a used 7).
    Any of you guys have experience with black friday sales on pixels? I researched a little, and it seems i wouldnt be saving much more than by selling the free buds that come with it rn.
    Also damn google theyre offering $55CAD for my 4a 5G

  • I mainly agree with you, i have enough of 128gb. But i know a lot of people that take a ton of pictures and struggle with storage space

  • Buying stuff from streamers is actually kind of big in China rn. Think of it like the old as seen on tv ads channels on cable, but now its influencers marketing products on tiktok

  • Florisboard also has gesture typing, however i rarely use it. I find i make a lot more mistakes than i did swipe typing with gboard
