people are starting to forget that Windows actually was good a long time ago, it has been 13 long years

Windows is still good if you're on the correct branch. Objectively a clean install of W10/11 IoT Enterprise LTSC just dwarfs anything linux has to offer. Piss easy offline local instalation that's done in like 4-5 simple steps, practically zero chance of hardware and software incompatibility, and very lightweight, bloatfree, and allows absolute control over the computer. Wanna block defender in gpedit? Sure. Wanna block updates in gpedit? Sure. Even allows removing packages that aren't removable in the non-IoT branch of LTSC. It's pure perfection. Home.

>spyslop doesn't exist

In my country everything is a app nowadays which sucks more ass than you can imagine.

I'm a legit student and entitled to student discounts on trains. One day I noticed that my student card app had stopped working because it wanted to be updated and - you guessed it - my iOS version wasn't supported anymore.
I had no time and even less interest in buying a new 500-dollar student card machine just because the guy who made the app is a lazy fuck who refuses to code in support for older iOS versions.
You know what I did? I quickly coded a mockup version of the app. A screenshot wouldn't be enough because the app has animated shit to prevent that. I used CSS to mimic the animations.
I remade the QR code so that it takes you to my personal website which simply states "yup, the student status is valid".

Amazingly, it worked. The weird thing is that 10 years ago I couldn't of forged my physical student card no matter what. But in the "secure" digital era any asshole can remake an app in a couple of hours.

>you're a criminal
No I'm nut. If I'd gotten caught, they could of phoned my university and check that my student status is valid. The app itself is just an unnecessary middle man making me watch ads and I don't understand why I'd have to use it.

If you want to use ancient hardware, you have to switch to Android.
Apple is killing support for iOS versions other than the last two or three in the App Store all the time.
Buy new or gtfo, it's the Apple experience.
>>
>>107841567
But everyone keeps saying how Apple has the longest support
Android has a different approach. You can keep installing shit forever but you might actually brick your phone by upgrading to a newer version of Android
It happened to me. An update made the phone sluggish and USB no longer worked. Couldnt even roll back
Apple makes sure their products dont get bricked, but the downside is that you're literally barred from installing something that might not work
>>
>>107841567
>If you want to use ancient hardware

My phone is 7 years old. I guess it classifies as "ancient" by today's standards.

I think it's such a consumerist goy mindset to think your phone is too old when it physically still functions as intended.
Something like a student card app is literally just a blinking light and a QR code as a standalone application.
I dont see why a phone from 2010 wouldn't run that. Why does text and a gif animation require a new phone every 3 years? It's not like I'm getting new features - the old features are just requiring better hardware. This is what boggles my mind

Nobody said it couldn't, just that Apple doesn't want you to.

I thought this too when i saw the date on my ereader. Its change log is vague, only thing it says is "security and stability" or something to that effect. Features that were in beta 10 years ago are still in the beta tab, there are no perceivable changes. In fact, the only thing that has changed is that i can no longer access the sync feature or the kobo book store from the reader. Just fails it every time. So yeah, surprising to see it was updated as recently as a few months ago only to have nothing different and less features working on it. Doesn't really mean much does it?

Again, my original point was that i think it's actually crazy that this ancient device is barely any worse than something i just purchased in Amazon that released this last year. Its hard to believe so little has changed performance wise.
>>
>>107840463
I don't know the exact device you purchased but for I don't think that there have been no improvements.
For reflowable ebooks a decade old device is good enough and there hasn't been much need to update but for pdf and the like those small devices with limited CPU and RAM were barely usable.
>>
I just opened remarkable website, they lock down some features behind a subscription now lmao
I was interested in a big eink to read pdf like textbooks and papers, I guess it's gonna be boox fuck subscription jews. Is the a4 size (13.3") worth it or the 10.3" is enough?

I want to learn how to make android apps. Where do I start. So far I've looked at the Android Basics with Compose Course

I'm proficient with running and using LLMs (local and SaaS so I think that might help me a little bit.. yes I know I have a lot to learn but I'm willing to put time and effort into it.

Current relevant hardware I have is an M4 max MacBook pro. I already have Android Studio installed as well as vs code and local LLM servers (I primarily use llama-server whenever possible)
