Stop making every fucking community political. These headlines are fucking retarded. It's already been happening it doesn't matter what fucking administration is in power. We've been spied on since the Patriot act

This is probably what OP wants. A gui

This exact thing used to happen to me with Lyft. I would be out late until around 2am at my friends house some nights drinking. When I would open the Lyft app and look for a ride back home they would be at around $90!!!! I would wait for about 20 minutes and the price would drop to about 35-40$. It was outrageous and made no sense. Eventually I stuck with just grabbing a cab each time instead for around 45$

Firefox + uBlock Origin. if you keep seeing the anti-adblock message there are certain filters you must input. I'm sure you can find it somewhere on the Internet. If it comes back then you simply refresh your filters.

Does this mean I can continue to peer to peer share 4k movies for 'AI purposes'

Linux Mint. There was just too much crap on the desktop

This is the UI of my nightmares

This could be a possible issue with your screen but it's most likely an issue with the Finger Print Sensor (FPS) Software. With Pixel 6 and up the FPS software works in conjunction with the LCD (Since it's on the screen). You should take it to an authorized Google repair center (for example a uBreakifix) and the issue will likely still be covered under the manufacturer's warranty(free of charge). There's a specific program that Google gives these repair centers to reinstall the FPS software on it each time they do an LCD swap. I'm sure that they would be willing to reinstall the software on your Pixel without going through the process of switching the LCD to see if it fixes your issue. Shouldn't take more than 20 mins but it could be longer if they're backed up on same-day repairs. Source: I had to do this a many times for the Pixel 6. And I vaguely remember a customer with a similar issue on the 6 pro.

P.S. Before doing this you could try a factory reset on your phone to see if it fixes the issue. Or start Android in safe mode to rule out any 3rd party software that could be causing the issue. (Though I doubt it, I have a feeling the issue will persist).

No DE. Just openbox + polybar + rofi

As someone who worked in an electronics repair shop let me just say this: beware of folding phones. I will be the first to admit that the screen really does look great and I love the large landscape... when it's working. There are so many issues that come up with folding technology. I've had to repair so many Z Folds and Z Flips. The OEM screen protector constantly lifts and bubbles at the hinge. A lot of times there's pixel bleeding along the hinge. The repairability is a nightmare. Think about taking out components of a normal phone. Now double it and imagine having to carefully remove an outside LCD that is incredibly sensitive and breaks at the slightest touch. Replacing a drained battery or any small component like a sub-pba, mic, camera, orr anything else is a nightmare.

I've been ricing my desktop slowly over the years (don't have a lot of time). I've gotten it somewhat down to what I like. I use Archlinux with Open box, polybar, and rofi. I don't use a desktop environment. My question is what are my options for ricing default applications like dolphin or similar apps with default gui's (xsensors) without using a packaged desktop environment. I believe my default theme and icons are Adwaita (GTK-3)

I want to know your opinions on the best distro that is convenient for laptops. Main reason is I want to really optimize hardware performance and more specifically battery life for my University classes. I also want to try a tiling manager as they seem perfect for laptops.

Things of note:

  • Convenience/Performance is key
  • My laptop is a Thinkpad E15 w/ 16 gb ram
  • On my home desktop I run Archlinux w/ Open box & no DE (I've been using Arch for years but haven't used another distro since Ubuntu in highschool)
  • I will likely dual boot with Windows 10 for Office
  • I want to run a tiling manager
  • I don't video game
  • I wont be using a mouse
  • I don't necessarily want to use Arch, want to try something new that I don't have to rely on AUR updates for certain software
