I use Kitty daily, and Calibre is excellent.

Off topic but your username almost matches my current DnD character: Ranger Dangerfield, a level 6 Ranger.

Welcome, friend :).

Nope.

Well, I don’t use any banking apps, personally. My understanding is that they don’t work under Waydroid.

Other Android apps mostly work fine in Waydroid, so long as they don’t need access to GPS or camera to work properly.

I removed Waydroid a while back, though, as I only needed it for one app and Waydroid took up almost 1/3 of the storage on the phone. It just wasn’t worth it, and I am happier to be rid of the Android ecosystem anyways.

I should mention that the Linux phone life is NOT for everyone.

I should also mention that battery life is still not anywhere close to competitors. Camera is meh but improves with updates.

For my use cases (Phone/SMS/MMS, Lemmy, Mastodon, and a few other apps), it works totally fine and has proven to be reliable enough for almost 3 years. It gets better with age due to updates.

Librem 5.

Cons: Storage and RAM small. Battery so-so.

Pros: I haven’t seen a single other phone I would rather own. Android and iOS are dumb as hell. Terrible OSes, in my opinion.

I want a Liberty Phone but can’t justify the money. This works well enough for me. I will almost certainly be buying the L5 successor.

It’s alive as long as dope motherfuckers like you and me keep using it.

Dope

Beefed it / Biffed it

Bike lanes suck and bikes should be on the sidewalk.

Not quite as that its user-created and submitted.

But yeah lots of packages have a -bin counterpart that will install a lot quicker than compiling it for yourself.

One suggestion is to look for -bin versions of the packages you want. Those are precompiled and should install only marginally slower than a regular pacman package.

Candidates need to promise to improve the economy. That is how Trump got the votes to push him over in 2024.

Linux aside, would it not benefit the world if people moved away from non-free software? To me, this is a good reason to encourage people to switch, not discourage them.

This isn’t a hobby, but most of my hobbies fall into this: building stuff is what makes me happy.

Not wanting to go out or be social is more acceptable. Plus more excuses to stay home are available.

Unfortunately it it probably Windows, just so he can run .bat scripts.

Yup. I have pots with pressure cooker lids, and I just add a tiny but of water in the bottom and basically just steam them for 6 or 7 minutes. Even if I get distracted they are usually still easily peeled and just barely soft in the middle.

I like Sayonara

I have a few Ext4 drives connected and I mount them in /etc/fstab and that’s it.

I’ve yet to find a reason to change it.

The people who wrote all that music and all those albums you love? Reeeeeeeeaaaallll fucking high on drugs.

Good thing they already sucked, but this is abysmally low.
