not necessarily, for example some laptop oems do not use the standard format and you cant just extract them from the exe so you have to use windows

dual boot, you never know when will you be forced to use windows again

• and for those who suggest VM, there are situations where its a hassle to make thing work or its impossible all together ( updating bios is one of those )

Yes it will but it wont be able to handle +4 GB files

This is weired, i might be blind because i don’t see any LINUX

KDE connect on both your PC and phone just use --no-install-recommends to avoid KDE bloat

Huh, intersting

Brother’s driver install tool expects dnf, apt, or yum, and so it’s incompatible with ostree-based systems like Kinoite or Silverblue. You can of course download the driver manually and install the necessary packages:

Not being able to provide support for every distro is the other edge of open source

Your phone has a snapdragon which is very popular chip to make ROM for but generally hard to unlock unofficially -not impossible though it’s possible there is a workaround by now for your specific chip - on the flip side mediatek devices are less popular due to them refusing to provide the source code but to their partners. however they are well-known to be easy to unofficially unlock due to some vulnerability -in the bootloader- that they refuse to patch.

I did a leap of faith and I unlocked my phone unofficially (mediatek) but if you decide to flip that coin think hard about it and make sure you are well informed (like using your specific phone code name instead of brand name ex: instead of redmi 9 say “lancelot”)

As long as your pc is a little bit behind its gonna be ok (unless you have a certain wifi chip)

For people who say you should read the contract before agreeing to it. What about the hundreds of thousands? No, millions of people buying new windows laptops every year. Are they presented with any kind of agreement? I don’t think so.

university students ?

I would like to recommend sumatrapdf

The perfect distro doesn’t exist, YOU make it then you add it to distrowatch

Well, I can. But the difference is so minor it won’t make a difference in my opinion. Especially if you are listening mostly to digital music. It’s a different story for classical, especially violin. But if i played for you both 320 kb mp3 and flac you probably won’t notice unless i told you what to look for and thats fine.

I don’t judge people Hobies, i just wanted To point out how both are somehow similar

The thing is that no one should listen 128kb mp3 -or youtube rip- and having a wide accurate color range screen is more important imo

Was gonna say the same thing, HDR is like flac and expensive amps for audiophiles Maybe we should start calling them visualphiles ? 🤷‍♂️

yeah… in a way I was both happy and disappointed

Or maybe the magisk devs made it more sophisticated.

It’s just a technique that prevents selected apps from knowing that you have root access instead of just denying them the privileges.
