My S20 broke(screen died). I can repair it but i'm just going to get a new phone. Newest One Plus, Pixel, or Samsung phone? Probably not going to buy the larger versions since I prefer the hand feel of the base versions.
>>107857031Oh right, I forgot to ask, do any of them have SD card slots? I noticed most phones ditched that.
how low can i actually get my battery capacity before it becomes an issue? This will be the point I will buy a new phone
>>107857043Best phone that has an SD card slot is the Moto G Power 2025 as far as I'm aware. No other major brands have one anymore

>>107857269lutris is >add game>name game and data like icons are fetched for you>select runner flatpak/native linux/steam/wine aka windows>configure anything you want with runner beforehand, almost never needed>select folder to install>select installer exe and run that or just game exe if it's a portable install>doneIt also lets you run exes within wine for things like fan patches or gog installers that come in multiple exes. It basically creates a whole little windows file structure in your Games folder or where you point it and you can go in there and swap out a dll or mess with inis or whatever you're doing just like windows. You can right click on any added game and change between proton/wine and toggle different things or copy and paste a custom launch argument from protonDB if a game is really finnicky. It's dead simple I've already made it sound more complicated than it really is.
>>107857368not sure what runner is (still new to this) but this is very helpful and ill look into it some more, thank you
>>107857368on lutris to install something i have to add the game and select the installer .exe, then after installation change the executable to the game .exeif clcick the + button to add a game and then select install game from exe, lutris only is able to isntall it using wine-ge which has been discontinued for years
>>107857351Immutable distros are catnip for the same kind of failed executive types who would normally work on something like Mint. Except it's much easier to make your own immutable mix tape distro, so there are going to be tons of people shilling their own for the foreseeable future.
how to show cached ahead seconds in the osd stats when O is pressed
Have two laptops, one runs mint. Want to put something else on the other. pic related. Have used OpenBSD on VPS, liked it. Does it werx on desktop? Just use browser, GIMP, and terminal mostly.
>>107855902oh
>>107851954in my experience on my desktop openbsd worked better, several things on freebsd didnt work where they worked perfectly out of the box on openbsd, like the media keys on my keyboard, suspending and even rebooting lmaoon freebsd when rebooting it just hangs forever unless i hit the power button to shut it down and it also doesnt wake up from suspending, i just get a black screen and have to force a shutdown to fix it
Use freebsd. It's faster.
>>107851802OpenBSD works really good on laptops since devs dogfood it with their own setups. You may have to poke around with mixerctl to get audio working if it doesn't work out of the box

>>107795067why the fucking fuck would a approve/reject contracts even need an app? like either approve or reject the fucking thing. if it's more convoluted and it tracks criteria I get it, but even so. PHP should be fine since I don't think the frequency of new contracts in any way necessitates having sub-second apps being created in the first place. how often are they even voting on new contracts? once a month? what a fucking waste of money.

So is this the true endgame distro or what?
>>107856632Already run FreeBSD on my NAS, and openbsd on my router and schizopad. There comes a point in a man's life where he wants a reasonable amount of software compatibility without a compatibility layer.
>>107856384didn't all its maintainers literally die? also what's the point since it uses openssl and systemd now?
>>107856384it's a rolling release distro with so few maintainers that it's basically slower-updating than something like Fedora. also it's unironically run by trannies nowadays and on several occasions packages have been rejected due to "ideological" reasons.it's ridiculously light and I find it interesting distro to fuck around in (the musl version is very solid), it's probably my favorite non-systemd distro out there, but at the end of the day I don't see it lasting too much longer.
If you want to suck tranny cock use chimera linux instead.
>>107856774It still uses runit for init and doesn't automatically use any systemd modules by default. You can optionally configure stuff like elogind for session management, but you can use any alternative you'd like>>107856689It really does just werk. I have a laptop running it and haven't had any major issues getting anything to run. I'm using glibc though, so ymmv with using musl
what is up with Americans and naming their cities after existing cities/countries?
>>107856435We name them after other cities, but we mispronounce them to mog the originals
>>107856435Reminds me of a time I mentioned something which was in Paris and some mutt bitch was like “huh which Paris? You mean Paris, France or Paris (some random state I can’t even remember)???” like she actually thought there was the slightest chance I actually meant her shithole town lol
>>107856435https://www.press.uillinois.edu/wordpress/illinois-place-name-of-the-day-oct-28-2008/
>>107856435Hardly an American phenomenon.
literally everywhere is named after one of these categories:>Someone who established/discovered it or is otherwise relevant>A description that was at one point relevant (regardless if it has been now)>a misunderstanding of what someone else called the place>An existing place, typically one you're from or the majority of people are from>an arbitrary assignment that militaries and gooks like to use for placesand MAYBE>a commemoration of an event or whateverand there's pretty much nothing else. These exist across the entire world. It's a little bit more obvious in the US perhaps because of how recently most of it was named, but you'll find this in places like Australia as well in similar form; and beyond that, many seemingly novel place names have just slowly changed their names over time to obfuscate where they were named after. Heck, there are some places in europe named "America" after America.

My t480 shuts down after the first battery depletes and only switches to the second battery after i turn it back on. is this because im using cheap chinese replacement batteries?
>>107853674Probably. Calibrating them (may need to do it a few times for each) usually helps
>>107851030NoThe difference of the iGPU perfornance between T14 G2 and T14 G3 is night and day. Going from "could barely run Minecraft" to "1080p 30 FPS Cyberpunk".
I got an HP elitebook 8460p, with 4gb ram and i5 2520m and hdd, any suggestions on what I could do with it other than old windows and lightweight Linux? Also would getting a 90w charger do anything for it?
