They didn’t really replace it though. Pretty much every modern car sold today has Bluetooth. You don’t have to use android auto.

You’re correct. I tried to keep it short and misspoke. Two hot wires from previously split phase.

One long enough to be worth considering in the last 7 years.

No, they work really well because they run on two phases so 220v.

One downside on a laptop is reduced battery life.

I tried Ghostty briefly before, but you have to really try hard to notice preformance difference over Konsole.

Cool idea, but not useful for those that spend all day in a terminal imnho.

I completely agree, but despite OP or Samsung looking better on paper, overall experience is just so much smoother. Shit just works. And at some point I began to value that over specs.

Just for some perspective, I’m basing what I’m saying on OP 3T, 5T and 8Pro, Samsung S21 and Pixel 8 pro and currently 9 pro fold.

Nah, I’m not doing back to OP. I hate to say it, but If you’re going to use android, nothing beats pixels. Not even close.

If GrapheneOS manages to actually work with a decent hardware maker to get a phone to the market, I’ll get that next, but only if Android auto and banking apps work. Phone’s useless to me without those.

Only reason I’d give those up is if I can get another Linux phone as polished as Nokia N9. Still the best phone I’ve ever owned.

Not a popular opinion, but if those two options are unavailable, I’d rather switch to iPhone than use a non pixel android.

Oneplus had great success but then enshittified. Raised prices to match Samsung and Google, outsourced support to some place that didn’t sound like they were even in the same dimension as any English speakers and took away their ability to help customers even by accident and finally quality of their phones went to shit.

They could’ve sucked the Chinese government subsidy tit for another few years and would’ve established themselves as legit competition, but that would only delay inevitable enshittification by a few years.

Doesn’t work for every use case, but perfect for mine. I was just pointing out other options.

Valid points. I use it for my media collection I can easily restore and won’t miss. Cache would be sort of nice to have and redundancy would just be wasting space.

Mergerfs can do that too and you can keep the underlying fs as whatever you want.

Ah, makes sense. I don’t mind sharing history and have never used bookmarks or customized any settings.

This is what I do now, just trying to figure out why ff keeps spending time on profiles. Do they have any advantages over containers?

I think containers (that Firefox already has) are a much better way to handle this. Profiles, art least the way they are implemented on chrome, feels like a massive downgrade.

I can see by down votes not a popular opinion, but I’d pay over $1k for an open source laser printer with Brother’s reliability.

Eye exam later would make you feel even worse lol

Is this for people that are able to transfer themselves? Because Uber WAV works just fine. Used it several times without any issues other than extended wait times due to small number of appropriate cars.

Also, I’m willing to bet real money this issue is caused by assholes claiming their chihuahuas are service animals and not by Uber drivers rejecting to drive blind people or people in wheelchairs.

This chart doesn’t imply there’s anything wrong with your position. Low confidence and low competence = choosing OS that implements a ton of guardrails to prevent users it’s designed for from fucking up too hard. Nothing wrong with that even if you choose to do that forever.

Curve is not available in US and has terrible reviews on Play store.

I’d switch in a heartbeat, but I can’t live without a smart watch and having to pay with physical cc again would be a massive downgrade.

I have a suspicion that all the android clones will become a much worse/unusable experience once Google implements these changes.

Do any alternatives allow using banking apps or android pay or android auto?

I realize there are no substitutes for banking apps, but are there any alternatives for android auto or pay if those cannot be installed? Preferably Linux alternatives.
