Basically a self fulfilling prophecy

God damned roof thin mints on Portent, the stuff of nightmares. I’d rather have this administration than EXALT.

Fuck, I’m gonna have to reinstall XCOM Long War

FWIW, you can install Win11 on unsupported hardware with a pretty easy registry edit to bypass the TPM check. I did it for my mom’s PC that lives 600 miles away from me, thus far with no issues.

If it has to be Linux, I’d recommend something that’s immutable and atomic on a platform you’re familiar with so as to prevent careless mistakes by technophobes.

Ubuntu Core, Fedora Silverblue, MicroOS from openSUSE are all pretty stable and have rollback if something gets borked. Unfortunately, nothing is guaranteed to ‘just work’. Good luck!

This has been my favorite since Android 7. Add Lawnicons for a zillion extra themed fully swappable icons.

These are the kids menu drinks, aside from the bottled water. They’re like 6-7 ounces and that choccy milk has 20+ grams of sugar, I’ll guarantee.

No way is an unsweet iced tea or even a Pepsi zero less healthy, they just cost more because they’re adult sized. I hope you got cheese curds, at least.

I’ve been having the same problem, and it seems to be some kind of https resolution thing. I thought maybe it was a proxy or VPN issue, but I disabled those and rebooted and it was still the same.

What fixes it for me is to load literally any page(I use duckduckgo) on the built in browser on Lineage and then go back to Fennec and it runs like normal until it doesn’t again. I’m hoping an update comes soon.

‘pretend this is transparent’ is sending me. Bra-fucking-vo!

Unless you can get one custom built, about the only option outside the Framework is an Asus Tuf A16(Win11) from 2023 with a possible best configuration of 7940HS and Radeon 7700S.

There’s a Chinese metamechbook01 that has a 7600XT(possibly slightly faster than the 7700S), but I’ve never seen it for sale anyplace reputable. Could be time to stop beating the dead horse.

Outside of iGPUs, AMD’s been absolutely massacred for 10+ years by nVidia. It’s the sad reality we have. That said, the open source nVidia drivers aren’t shit anymore.

They’re advertising potato salad on truck trailers now?

I’d get an MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK of some sort and chuck all your current stuff in there and call it a day. It’s been the budget industry champ for Ryzen 3000 and 5000 chips for 5 years now.

It has lots of power with a rock solid Mosfet and there are only a couple of RGB lights that can be set to white and static which matches the decor pretty well. It’s currently 130USD on Bezos ‘R’ US.

I’m pretty sure the Exynos S10/Note 10 series from 2019 was the last unlockable bootloader Samsung S you could get.

You could try to sell it or trade it in for something that’s unlockable. Outside of Pixels, Motorola and OnePlus tend to have the most new-ish devices that run custom ROMs.

I just found a decently priced Motorola Edge 40 Pro that I set up with LineageOS, it was stupid easy. Supposedly, it’s getting Android 16 at some point early next year.

This has lots of documentation for recent devices and what kind of challenges you might face. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

Barring any of that, some type of debloat software is gonna be your best bet. Good luck!

No, that’s UHF. You’re thinking of the cassettes we used to record and watch movies on.

Depending on the tablet, you might not be able to unlock the bootloader. I have a Chinese Lenovo model Y770 that’s not unlockable.

You can always remove your google account from the tablet and install Aurora Store and f-droid to keep google from tracking what you’re using. Every step in the right direction is a step away from google.

Using Open Street Maps, Mull, Brave, librewolf, various proton apps or whatever you prefer will let you get away from the built in google stuff.

Don’t hurt 'em

There’s no such thing as man sized rats.

(That being said, I do appreciate how on the nose a lot of WH stuff is; such as the leader of the ninja assassin Clan Eshin being called Sneek lol)

This is unsettling to hear, because I haven’t had an issue in several months on my end. When it used to get bad, the one thing that always seemed to work for me was watching things in private tabs.

I’ve also used the Albanian VPN workaround, and it definitely worked in the past. Good luck, let us know if you find a solution!

Houston streets are tough enough without some jackass swinging a 6 foot long rubber band at you.
