Yep, waydroid init -s GAPPS. But it will complain when first trying to sign in with Google so you’ll have to authorize the device.

That looks like such a cool device! I’ve been wondering what to replace my 2017 macbook with in the next few years and it’s nice to see more options to consider. Maybe it won’t be a refurbished ThinkPad.

I’ve had this error upon random reboots after upgrading to Linux 6.8 on 5950x. Went back to 6.7.9 and hasn’t happened again since. What version are you on? Would be interesting to know.

No, third-party browsing engines are not a thing that’s been implemented yet, and might never be by Firefox. This is about a screen that prompts EU users to pick a browser rather than defaulting to Safari and leaving it up to them to install another.

Those specs are just horrendous, why would they put an LCD when they got that pure black theme going on?

I was trying to think why people would use it who have all their email in one web page already.

I would prefer a web client (since emails are already interlinked with the web so a tab for it is less annoying to me) but none of the options satisfied me so I just landed there. You either use a provider with already good web mail (gmail, proton, …) or you end up with Thunderbird.

But maybe I’ve missed an option. The best one I’ve had was Nextcloud Mail but it was really slow to load and search.

Beeper’s backend is also fully open-source, there’s nothing stopping you from hosting your own iMessage bridge and accessing it via any matrix client.

I once wasted 2 hours on getting an ssl cert working on an irc server by just giving its user access to my nginx certs, which turned out to also need +x. That was when I realized everything I knew about the execute permission was wrong.

I love their approach to Hardware and Linux but have we collectively forgotten that Valve had a huge part in pushing loot boxes and underage gambling? Far from being the least evil company, but still a net win for consumers and I appreciate that they exist.

Performance is a good lead since it feels lower than 60fps and my panel can only switch between 60/120 Hz. I wonder what could cause that to happen only on the forks since the regular Firefox is buttery smooth even on complex sites.

I’ve noticed they stay at 120 until I open the first tab, then they’re locked at 60 until I close all tabs and reopen the app.

privacy.resistFingerprinting was already false in Fennec/Iceraven and I’ve set it to false in Mull, unfortunately all remain on 60 Hz even after force closing.

It is dev dependent, but I don’t agree with “devs can implement it just as easily” at all. One only requires using a built-in API to create notification channels (which you have to call anyway), the other requires designing and programming your own page for it.

I bought a used magic trackpad 1 to use on Linux. It works quite well out of the box including multi touch capabilities but sometimes if you do a lot of movement in one go it will lag behind. The newer ones can be used wired and use higher Bluetooth versions so that’s hopefully not an issue.

One noticeable limitation for all is that they run at 90 Hz which is noticeable on a 144 Hz screen, but there aren’t really alternatives as far as I could find.

At least for anything statically linked where the GPL code would end up as part of your binary and force you to GPL your own code I believe.

Anything more lax is fine, so you could also release your code under MIT license if you use GPL modules. Yes, it does force you to release your code but after all it’s a protection for the user. Furthermore, GPL does not mean your software has to be free of charge, you can still sell it as long as you attach the source code for the end user.

I wonder if this is due to antitrust law reasons. Already low Linux market share + secure boot having made installation even harder does not set a good precedent for Microsoft.

Steam.

Even the Pi has lost its headphone jack…

It works (somewhat) while your cursor is hovering over XWayland windows but once you move over something native it will keep chasing to the last spot.

Wish it was possible to get this on Wayland, but the APIs aren’t there yet…
