I’ve seen some youtubers recommend OnShape. It’s a browser based CAD app so it should work fine.

I always forget. Can we do a release upgrade to this or do we have to wait until 24.04.1?
Edit: Nvm. You can update today
sudo do-release-upgrade
I upgraded to the Pi4 but I use this case. It has a daughter board that lets me use an m.2 SATA SSD over USB. But any USB to SATA adapter should work fine
I’d bet $1 it’s the SD card. My 3B+ used to have the same problem. Been running pis off some sort of SSD ever since, no issues.
Why choose OpenBSD over FreeBSD? Any noticeable differences? I know it’s supposed to be a more security focused BSD but I hear it has fewer maintainers? The idea of a BSD appeals to me but the hardware compatibility holds me back. Just curious what your experience is like
Great, now partner with Microsoft and merge it with Windows so the majority of Android users might finally stop emailing themselves, or sending files through their messaging app of choice
You’re thinking ahead to 30-40 years from now.
I think it’ll affect us a little sooner but generally, yeah, that’s exactly it
If the narrow screen bugs you, it’s worth considering the Pixel Fold IMO
I had the Pixel 7 Pro and when it was cool outside, it was great. It ran warm though and I’m outside a lot so when it got to summer, it became frustrating to use. Just getting the camera to open took twice as long and navigating the UI would be inconsistently choppy. I’m probably going to wait until the Tensor G4 or G5 (the later being rumored to use TSMC’s foundry) before seriously considering a pixel again.
Fold 6 it is
Ignoramuses who believe Android is technologically falling behind
Not sure if that was a general statement of directed at me so I guess I’ll say that I don’t believe Android is falling behind, I just think that if the overwhelming majority of Americans are using iPhones, it will be detrimental to the experience of using an Android phone in America as the years go on. Recent articles have said it’s something like a 50/50 split of between iPhone and android users who are adults but closer to 87/13 for teens. That’s concerning because they are getting locked in and unless Apple makes a major misstep, they’ll likely get iPhone’s for their kids when the time comes. It’s looking like a slow burn
How do you like your fold 5? I was considering getting one but I’m kind of turned off due to the narrow cover screen; holding out for the fold 6. I haven’t used a Samsung phone since touchwiz and have been switching between Pixel’s and iPhones ever since. How is OneUI after a year or so of use, any slowdown or have they pretty much fixed that?
I’d much rather Google innovate, make a better product, and not cancel it, but if this brings more young people over to Android in America, I’m all for it.
If things continue how they have been, I won’t realistically be able to use Android because the overwhelming majority of people around me will be using iPhones. That has a knock on effect of poor support on Android apps, missing features, missing out on integration experiences, etc. which makes it harder and harder to use Android. You could still choose to use Android but if like 80%-90% of people are using iPhones, you may as well be using an old flip phone.
Edit: to be clear, I’m not saying iPhones are better than Androids. My concern is with phone use trends in the US and what that will mean for us in the next few decades
Good to know. I’ll be a little more weary of their products going forward, thanks
I’m pretty sure their headphones and watches are just aliexpress junk
Their sub-brand “CMF by Nothing” for sure is junk rebranded.
Presumably, you’ve had one of their Nothing phones. What specific issues have you experienced? Is it graphical glitches or like, show stopping bugs?
I appreciate what KDE is doing with their DE, I’m glad it exists but it’s not for me either. I only suggest it because it’s surprisingly light on resources for the amount of customization options you get.
Since it’s your first time, my first suggestion is to try Xubuntu (Ubuntu with XFCE desktop) or Kubuntu (Ubuntu with KDE desktop and generally more popular than Xubuntu). Both distributions are lighter on resources and they have an Ubuntu base which means there’s a ton of documentation online so if you run into problems, you will have plenty of resources.
Alpine is small for sure but it is more niche and it doesn’t use systemd which most major distributions use which means if you happen to run into weird issues, your pool of resources will be smaller. Don’t get me wrong, Alpine is great but I wouldn’t recommend it for new users. I don’t know anything about Puppy Linux; maybe it’s fine?
If your machine can’t run Xubuntu or Kubuntu, then worry about trying more niche distros like Alpine or Puppy.
If you run into issues, feel free to ask questions. The community is generally nice but you’ll want to try fixing it yourself first and then including what you tried in your post to get a better reception.
Embrace the terminal. It’s daunting at first but it’s such a powerful tool. Don’t use sudo with every command. Don’t paste random command in the terminal without doing a little research to understand what they do. Again, ask if you need help, you won’t learn everything overnight.
Good luck!
Edit: Linux Mint is also probably a good choice. Never used it myself but I’ve heard good things.
Hardware. I do all my work on a laptop and those Apple M series processors have been amazing for performance and battery life. I’ll stick with a Mac until those Qualcomm X Elite CPUs start getting shipped in Windows laptops next year. After using this Mac for the past year, I think I prefer Windows and WSL over MacOS or Linux. This whole post only applies to laptops though; Linux on desktop and servers for life.
Plex
At the time, Windows was updating and restarting whenever it felt like it which would stop my Plex server from running until I logged back in. Windows and Macs are now just thin clients that allow me to connect to all my Linux servers.
For me, Allo was the last straw. Hangouts before it. Google Voice before it. Google talk before it.
fool me once, shame on – shame on you. Fool me – you can’t get fooled again
Points 1 & 2 are true for all of Android as far as I’m aware. Point 3 is also probably true for all of Android past a certain version but I have no way of testing so I disclosed it affects pixels. I don’t know what you latched onto that made you so upset.
If you can’t buy an Android device with those features, for all intents and purposes, Android isn’t capable of those features. If you think OP is building an Android device with the hardware for features 1 & 2 but stopped by Lemmy to figure out if the Android OS was capable of using the hardware, you are delusional. Context is important.
Edit: I know you don’t actually think that, just making a point ^
Send links to prove me wrong 🤷♂️
YOU made that comparison
Yes. Because that’s what OP asked for:
I’m genuinely curious, what can iOS do that Android can’t?
So some iOS devices can do things that all Android devices can’t?
Yes. Op didn’t stipulate that the differences needed to be true for all of iOS
I mean I can cherry pick stuff some Android devices can do, too.
That’s not what Op asked
None of my four iOS devices can do any of what you’ve listed. (2 phones, 2 ipads)
I stated some features were hardware specific and if your devices don’t support Wireguard (my third point) then they are really old and likely not supported anymore or maybe work devices that are locked down. Regardless, I didn’t say anything that wasn’t true and I stated caveats where necessary; I answered OP’s question.
It refuses to answer that question for me lol
