Definitely shocked Pikachu vibes

I've not had UI issues but agree on the Pop Shop. The next iteration with Cosmic looks to be significantly improved at least

PopOS has an ISO with Nvidia drivers included, no issues gaming straight away on my old 1080ti. As I'm a simpleton who just likes their system to with I've stuck with it even after upgrading to an AMD card

Functionality is also nonexistent on administrating uploads in YT Music. At least on GPM you could edit basic tags and upload/edit album art. None of that on YTM

I love the phone despite the large size but can't get GPS working in apps

Very interested in this considering the specs for possible price. Would love to know exactly which cirrus logic DAC is in this device though. Also I'd be fine with sticking to Android 13 for an audio focused phone but wish they'd at least commit to security patches

Agreed, even as a huge fan of LD I could personally sense it being more difficult to write more stories for our lowly stalwarts of Starfleet in season 4. Better to be able to end still chanting "Lower Decks! Lower Decks! Lower Decks!"

I used Pixel Experience on the Pocophone to replace MIUI, pretty much flawless experience. Many thanks to José and other contributors for their hard work!

I've got a SP8 which I've been running PopOS on since the start of the year. The cameras don't work but this isn't a deal-breaker for me, it runs smoothly and is perfect for my needs as a media consumption device (music, movies, comics) with some browsing. There were some issues I had on installation but nothing that couldn't be resolved. Many thanks to the Linux surface team!

Even having moved to Linux, I miss Foobar. Deadbeef isn't that dissimilar but isn't quite close though for me

Number 2 was huge for me, and it hit home when I realised that 99% of my Steam library was supported. Thankfully I don't need to use any Windows only apps (Adobe suite, etc) so the decision to move over to Linux was trivial personally

I'd personally prefer that to the tone Discovery took

This is why I'm happy sticking with the meters my house was built with (which are "only" 23 years old)

I use it on my Surface Pro 8 with PopOS as Xorg doesn't work properly

Maybe we should just wait until the new phones are announced... https://www.gizmochina.com/2024/03/20/sony-isnt-discontinuing-the-xperia-5-series-hints-real-life-image-of-xperia-5-vi-protective-case/

Dom Joly moment

Praying the Xperia 5 VI is a bit more compact that the previous iteration. That and Sony actually start supporting their services for at least 5 years -_-

It's not fanless but I was also thinking of the Lemur Pro. Apparently System76 will be bringing out a new design though next month

Darkest Dungeon is probably top of my games not already mentioned, Slay the Spire is definitely up there too!

I'm on Pop too, mainly looking forward to Cosmic because... It's got a cool name. The actual features are gravy to me
