MartinXYZ,

If enough people speak up, they’ll have to.

Next smartphone I buy, which one do you recommend?

Things that make me angry about my current smartphone Samsung Galaxy S21Ultra on a Verizon plan is the mandatory software updates in which they install WITHOUT MY PERMISSION stupid apps like Netflix and addictive gambling games and stacking block games and Candy crush. God knows what else they install without my permission. I...

MartinXYZ,

Murena phones are basically Fairphone with /e/OS

One of the main features of Fairphones is that they are easily repairable - it doesn’t look like Murena has done anything to make it easier to fix.

MartinXYZ, (edited )

They don’t look the same though. I’ve only been to the Murena website and looked at their “phone 2”, that’s not the same hardware as Fairphone.

Edit: okay, I should have scrolled down a bit more. It looks like they made a " Murena Fairphone" too, where they’ve given a Fairphone the Murena treatment.

MartinXYZ,

Perhaps Fairphone?

MartinXYZ,

I’ve told this story on here before, but here it is again: I used to write for a very Windows-centric computer magazine, and after a couple of years I noticed that most of the content I was writing was about how to make Windows behave less like Windows. So I thought I’d give Linux a go, and I haven’t looked back since. I’ve had phases when I tried convincing all my friends to make the switch, but I’ve realized that it’s just not for everyone. I don’t think I’m obsessed, I don’t customize my desktop much, I just want my system to work smoothly.

MartinXYZ,

russian, japanese or otherwise ‘communist’ Japanese = ‘communist’???

MartinXYZ,

Yeah, that makes more sense. Thank you.

MartinXYZ,

What is this referring to? I’ve played New Vegas and don’t remember anything about bisexuals…

MartinXYZ,

He does look like Kim Dotcom, who is indeed German-Finnish but I’m not certain it’s him.

MartinXYZ,

Also, for what it’s worth: from the pictures I’ve found, it looks like Dotcom has darker facial hair, but it might depend on the lighting.

MartinXYZ,

You’re assuming GOD is a man?

MartinXYZ,

I’m sorry, I don’t understand that reference.

MartinXYZ,

Thank you for explaining 🤗

MartinXYZ,

Is the deer the Libreboot logo? Mine has a rabbit (Coreboot). I flashed Coreboot on my old Chromebook a couple of years ago and it’s been running different flavours of linux since without any fuss.

MartinXYZ,

OP, I think what this commenter is trying to say is: please compare the rivers and the lakes that we’re used to…

MartinXYZ,

I’m dumb. It took me a lot more than a moment 😕

MartinXYZ,

I just started reading the Culture series by Iain M. Banks, I shudder to think this is how it started.

Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I...

MartinXYZ,

I’ve visited a couple of times. My preferred app (relay) is still working, but I’m guessing I’ll jump ship completely once relay is affected, Lemmy has mostly replaced my Reddit habits anyway.

MartinXYZ,

They’re all good distros

Bront

MartinXYZ,

Well old memes are so hot on Lemmy right now…

MartinXYZ,

I have been using Connect for a while and really like it, but I’ll be trying out Liftoff for a bit now, I think it looks smooth!
