jellybean and gingerbread for me

and if you’re into a tracker-like workflow, renoise works really well on linux (assuming you can set up jack/pipewire properly or undo the horrror upon linux audio servers that is p*lseaudio. i feel this applies to most daws on linux)

i’m just dreaming of a good after effects clone (or port) for linux (preferably open source). left-angle autograph kicked the bucket, and pikimov is just a bit too limited. at least fusion360 can be streamed in a browser now, but freecad seems to be getting quite good as of lately.

i pretty much only use windows at school now for ae/cad work.

HUH?

i still don’t know what to do with my frankendevuan 😭

i do from time to time on laptops/phones, but usually i main tde (trinity desktop environment) on desktop.

eh not really, i’ve run a (really simple) web server on esp32 before

as of more recently, topgrade

i usually go with sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && sudo apt autopurge && flatpak upgrade if i’m on a deb distro, and topgrade on ublue distros

to an extent, it depends on how well-made its rom is. mine has a pretty crappy one where it tries its best to gaslight you into thinking it doesn’t run aosp, so the only way you can install/update apks is through adb or shizuku (f-droid and aurora didn’t work with permission denied errors). also, this phone doesn’t have touchscreen, and very few mainstream android apps support keypad navigation. to make matters worse, its rom is missing some library for virtual cursors to work correctly, so for those problematic apps you have to use either a bluetooth mouse or scrcpy. i was eventually able to hunt down apps on f-droid that handle keypad for all my needs, the only one that doesn’t work is steam guard, still need a mouse for that one. for maps i found a 2011 gmaps apk that still works flawlessly today. was able to install it since there were no google services bundled with the thing (they prevent downgrading google’s apps), so all i debloated was removing some t-mobile crap using canta. some modern android apps also have terrible dpi recognition (phone has a 240x320 screen which is PERFECT for j2me emulation), so you need system ui tuner to set the font size to something absurdly low like 0.025 to initially set up the app so it’s buttons fit on screen. usually once the app is set up you can reset the font to a usable “small” value.

i feel i’m getting off topic, sorry for my rambliness

TL;DR: don’t buy a sonim xp3plus, there are far better android flippies out there

used to use a used pixel 3a with a pretty thrashed battery, custom roms did help a bit. now i’m using a heavily debloated and modded android flip phone, i can go a whole week without even thinking about charging it (used to last like 2-3 days in it’s stock config)

the arch wiki is so great, a systemd archwiki page helped me fix a sysvinit issue on devuan (had to convert some weird service into a sysvinit compatible one)

probably

wasn’t this how im14andthisisdeep was born?

ik the mac layout, it’s just that haiku maps alt to opt, which it also happens to use as the primary modifier (for things like copy paste etc), so still under thumb like in macos, just with weird names unlike macos. in haiku win is mapped to cmd, but uses as secondary mod (like alt in windows). then ctrl is mapped to alt, which acts like win does on windows (system level commands like window management) EDIT: fixed typo

at least that’s how i remember it

my brother also has that weird ms keyboard btw, i liked it

konqueror is all i ever needed

only 40 to go

we found the haiku user

based win+space user
