This app just starts some productivity session while forbidding some programs from starting. Is there a Linux and most importantly FOSS version of it?

I use basic Google Pixel Camera app that forces me to have Google Photos installed so I can view my photos. My workaround is just going to the gallery directly. I don't use GrapheneOS's camera as I've seen worse quality when comparing two. I heard of modded Google Camera's for specific devices. Any suggestions?

That's all. I can't imagine how the world and also myself would look like without them.

I think that sums up that they're aiming only for parents with kids that would pay ransom for their products.

At least this is the good thing they did following Trump drama.

I use rsync normally but I want something similar for my Android (GrapheneOS) smartphone. I want to just click and backup everything that I set up earlier. For now I manually copy folders to one and then upload it to external drive. What are your recommendations?

Some ideas

  • Gimp
  • Blender
  • Godot
  • Tenacity
  • Inkscape
  • Signal Desktop
  • GrapheneOS
  • LibreOffice
  • KDE
  • Codeberg

And when you tell your OS to poweroff it... powers off. Wow.

I though of:

Your hardware deserves better.

Also you can give some more realistic ones like my friend:

It just (not) works

I use MullvadVPN, GrapheneOS and Linux but I also search for any more apps not like OSes. What'a your favorites?

I'm getting sick every day at this Microsoft Windows slowness and bloat. I am trying to use as much Linux VMs as possible. I feel so unproductive on Windows. I also tried installing Linux on the office laptop. The problem is that Windows is officialy supported and the Linux is DYI. Once the IT departament changes it will sync up with Windows but Linux can be broken and you are no longer able to work. Next job I want to have full Linux laptop or at least Mac.

Besides:

  • Microsoft Office
  • Active Directory
  • Some proxy and VPN bullshit

Everything seems manageable and even better on Linux.

What is your experience?

I see the raise of popularity of Linux laptops so the hardware compatibility is ready out of the box. However I wonder how would I build PC right know that has budget - high end specification. For now I'm thinking

  • Case: does not matter
  • Fans: does not matter
  • PSU: does not matter
  • RAM: does not matter I guess?
  • Disks: does not matter I guess?
  • CPU: AMD / Intel - does not matter but I would prefer AMD
  • GPU: AMD / Intel / Nvidia - for gaming and Wayland - AMD, for AI, ML, CUDA and other first supported technologies - Nvidia.

And now the most confusing part for me - motherboard... Is there even some coreboot or libreboot motherboard for PC that supports "high end" hardware?

Let's just say also a purpose of this Linux PC. Choose any of these

  1. Blender 3D Animation rendering
  2. Gaming
  3. Local LLM running

If you have some good resources on this also let me know.

That got lost in the wild. Also funny that shitier experience is more expensive than seeking for a better one for free. I remember it with Hogwarts Legacy when Denuvo free version got less frame drops and more FPS than Denuvo counterpart.

I once pirated Cuphead and loved it so much that I felt bad not supporting and buying it. It was only after First Isle.

I mean games you played / you are going to play.

My list looks like this for example:

What are yours?

  • Feeling clean
  • Not being exploited
  • Minimalism
  • Less power drain
  • Less data sent
  • Freedom
  • Everything works better and faster
  • I hate spying because they can
  • To be honest also because most people don't care

The only con is convenience.

Let's say just like for example like MacOS. It's awesome we have so many tools but at the same time lack of some kind of standardization can seem like nothing works and you get overwhelmed. I'm asking for people that want to support Linux or not so tech-savy people.

I don't want to brag but I'm one of these people that have lifetime donation. They do the amazing job.

Rimworld

I think you can be a DRM free copy on their website too. But damn, that game is expensive with all the DLCs.

The opposite of the OpenAI.
