My Dell latitude has pretty much the same situation.

All of the phones I have had have had practically flat fingerprint sensors, For example, the Pixel 3a XL which is closest to me right now has an inwards facing sensor.

I’m talking about streaming versus local playback, saying local playback is better for me.

I say ogg instead of mp3, because I prefer it over mp3. OGG was always open but mp3 was formerly patented.

Rear scanners had no reason to go away. Imagine a phone with one giant fingerprint sensor/touchpad on the back(like the PS Vita).

If only it didn’t use YTM as a backend. Youtube Music has the absolute worst recommendations I have ever used. It will literally play a song from an artist I never heard before in a genre I don’t listen to. It’s completely random. I wish OGG players were more popular.

The guy made 3+ pages of posts shitting on linux, all while nobody else posted and 95% of the posts were downvoted to shit. Nobody was laughing, the guy made real arguments, and genuinely seemed to have an issue with linux. I never detected any satire presonally.

Interesting concept, if it gets good enough I hope ubuntu touch adopts this because I’m not a big fan of waydroid.

I haven’t tried yet with my grandparents, but I will next time I see them. I have tried with my dad but he wasn’t much of a fan of it and preferred MacOS. My mom uses a chromebook and it suits her well enough, so I won’t try to budge her.

The day they roll out this update is the day I stop updating my Samsung phone.

Or work apps. I like to keep the apps my job requires in the secure folder(samsung).

If I feel like it, I might use DD to clone my drive and put in on a hard drive. Usually I don’t back up, though.

No just a bad memory. it was exiv2 all along, I checked.

Me too i went back to the linux install i wouldve used it on, and I couldn’t find exiv4 just exiv2 so I misremembered.

yes it was literally the same as exiv2. I remember it from maybe 6 months to a year ago. I went to the install which I remembered using it on, and it was exiv2, so I am wrong.

I hadn’t heard of it before, but it seems like a solid company.

So there are some linux laptop companies that make dedicated linux laptops. See Purism and Tuxedo. They are very compatible and customizable, but I would recommend taking a look at Tuxedo because they have a much wider range of devices. Purism is like if Apple was a pro-consumer company. Their devices are all 100% libre, but are quite expensive.

Thanks for the advice, but this was sollved already, I removed the SSD and the USB booted, so I wiped the SSD and put a GPT partition table on it. Then, I could boot and install.

Yeah I’ll plug it into my computer and edit the grub settings. Terrible that the USB drive just doesn’t boot with an SSD inside, even though I manually selected the USB from the boot menu. That made me break my water seal and this device lost its IP rating 🙃. Thanks very much for your help however, your affirmation about the unplugging the SSD was was very helpful.

That didn’t work either but I solved it by removing the ssd.
