  • I would call that planned obsolescence... no normal user needs this.

    Additionally, Samsung phones are FULL of spyware. More than google, xiaomi, huawei and others, way more. Which makes this more than ironic.

    Do samsung phones allow to use LTE-only mode? Block the usb port? Prevent apps from loading code from the internet?

    Are Samsung phones resistant to Cellebrite? Pixels running GrapheneOS (a free and open source OS, no spyware, no "breaking your device if you root it")

    But the fuse thing is interesting and concerning, thanks for the info.

  • kate textfile &

  • AV1 or HEVC (previously) seem to only be uses for high resolution video like 2K.

    As there the difference is biggest, and lacking hardware support is fine.

    I only use AV1 if possible, recent-ish Intel GPUs and phones support it fine.

    Btw, my soon to be EOL Pixel can encode 1080p AV1 at 0,5x speed or so, using svt-av1 (the better, but software, encoder).

  • Oh damn I have suffered from that folder creation change, happy it got reverted.

    It also appeared when using the key combo, some folders wouldnt show up which is of course fun.

    Excited for the other changes!

  • Any normal desktop environment should lock, then suspend. KDE does that afaik, never had that issue.

    So first lock, then suspend. As the process is ran by the system, it doesnt care if the screen is locked or not.

  • Rooting irreversibly disables the secure element? Or what is knox?

    Also I doubt that its security is incredible lol. It is just a secure element that can be used to generate keys and store a few secrets, at least if it is a secure element and not some software thing. Probably both.

  • Yes but there are tons of others that dont get CVEs lol

  • Because the kernel and packages are severely outdated, only getting urgent patches

  • RUST-LESS 🤣

  • Haha yeah duplicate names are lovely arent they

  • Shouldnt an updater run on the host? And Debian should always update the kernel with apt?

  • Uhm, you dont update the host OS??

  • Root is not impossible

    What android version? Can you unlock the bootloader?

    All you need is a release zip for the OS with boot.img and init_boot.img

    Patch them in the magisk, app, flash them with fastboot, and you are rooted

    But you might be able to access the internal app storage over USB (MTP)

  • Bro please, research this more. Extraction, refining, processing, is always at least energy intensive, even with closed loop recycling.

    But the processes are so complex, and producing complex combounds, alloys etc requires a lot of byproducts, reagents, solvents and causes waste, this is not the case.

    It is basic knowledge that you should always avoid to discard any product. Use it as long as possible, as that doesnt cause any more harm.

  • Ptyxis is slow and big yes. But it is the only modern terminal on GNOME that is maintained lol

  • You dont need the second one, which does something entirely different

    And yes, of course it has security impacts. It allows addons to tamper with the installation of addons, a typical privilege escalation that allows them to install whatever they want

  • All these nonsense comments...

    So you need to remove separate snaps per feature? Ok that makes sense? I dont think you need to remove all snaps, or that installing snap would add AI features?

    Think, people...

  • Crazy! Did the small chinese hight come from malnourishment or hard labor? Otherwise that increase would be hard to describe right?
