No, I wish I did though. I have a Pixel 6A currently running Android 15 The stock launcher might be smoother but I have pretty much only used it for 1 weeks time in total before I get frustrated as hell and switch back to Nova my beloved.

That seems to work pretty well for me. Predictive back doesn’t work but I think I can survive without it.

Yes of course but recording a private conversation has been legal before and I couldn’t find any good indications that it has changed under the GDPR.

The law essentially says that it’s illegal to record or listen to private conversations which you aren’t a part of using technical instruments.

So it’s legal to press your ear against a wall but it’s illegal to use any tech to listen/record to anything.

Yeah it varies. In my country you only need to participate in the conversation to be allowed to record it.

You can also film or photograph anyone you feel like in public as long as they aren’t in a place where privacy is expected like a bathroom or something like that. In general you can record and upload all day long.

The law is much stricter on surveillance cameras.

I can’t recall false positives being a huge issue for me, but it’s very late at night so my memory might be foggy.

I honestly don’t use it a lot because I have a gesture which enables me to swipe down on the home screen to bring down the notifications and I’m just so used to doing that. Personally I have to adjust my grip to use the back tap feature, so it’s slightly inconvenient.

Having the flashlight on the feature is something that I would like but unfortunately it’s just somewhat embarrassing to walk around with the flashlight turned on and false positives are a problem here.

With the notification shade false positives don’t really matter.

On my pixel 6A you can bring down the notifications but double tapping the back of the phone, which is pretty neat.

Alright. I didn’t know you needed an intel wireless chipset. Not sure why it matters if you use an AMD CPU though. Does AMD even make wireless chipsets?

My PC have an Intel wireless chipset and an AMD CPU.

It works alright for me on Windows. I have since also switched to local send because it’s just so good. But quick share is also fairly decent last I checked.

FYI with many routers, switches, and firewalls there are ways to automatically rollback changes in case the device is unreachable after applying them. Usually the command is called something like “Rollback”.

You usually supply a time limit when you run the command and if you don’t confirm the changes before that time limit it will rollback. So if you run rollback 30 and then do something which breaks the network connection, the config will rollback in 30 seconds. If it does work, you simply cancel the rollback.

The reason that most companies don’t want you to do that is because they don’t want people running around installing their own OS and doing whatever they feel like on company devices.

Letting people do that would be an IT and information security nightmare.

It’s the same reason that no (sane) company would give local admin privileges to everyone.

The reason why companies generally don’t have an official way to use Linux is because it’s hard to support two platforms simultaneously. Especially when you have, certificate and/or AD network authentication for wireless and wired like we do. You also need to consider how the two platforms should interact with each other. For example Linux devices should be able to connect to the AD domain with Kerberos and need to be able to access SMB shares and probably other systems.

In short it’s more complicated than “just let me try”.

I am a Windows admin but two of my colleagues who are Linux admins use Linux machines that are running Ubuntu+a few internal tweaks to make it better fit us. The Linux platform is developed primarily by one of the developers at the company and some others (primarily developers) also use Linux. The vast majority of the company uses Windows.

There are also a few hundred Macs.

I have been considering getting our flavour of Linux installed on a VM or maybe even dual booting for testing.

What the hell are you talking about‽

I just wanted to know if trump has made some more stupid statements. I had just not heard of any attacks on artists and wanted to know more.

Yeah, I know. I asked about artists though.

Is trump planning to round up artists?

That applies to most of the drama surrounding Linux.

Spammers ruined this not email companies.

Suggest a country then

Well no shit it’s not great.

It’s still pretty damn impressive that you can buy smartphones for that cheap at all.

I’m not a designer (I have spared the world from my designs) but I think the Affinity suite is pretty good. It’s not as feature complete as Photoshop but it’s fairly close and the UI is also fairly close.

As they said the app needs ongoing maintenance.
