I need to look better the ARM devices. I was trying to get away of Android because of where it seems to be going with Google locking it bit by bit but it may be the last resort. Any particular device that you find appealing?

100% about cooling, was looking those giant x86 portables and they can make a lot of noise giving the state of cooling.

Thanks for sharing the video, I loved this guy aptitude, I can definitely relate.

Can we have a screen sub the size of the Steam Deck, with an efficient processor and a long lasting battery? Something really portable, that we can fit in pants pockets.

Doesn’t the large screen makes it consumes more battery?

Maybe this device already exists. Something that plays most of the games that the Steam Deck plays with a smaller size and a longer lasting battery.

I remember the times that we used to be excite with technology innovation making things smaller. Nowadays, it seems, at least with phones and gaming handhelds, that people prefers larger and bulky screens.

Not opposed to the overall message but for the national security letter it worth remind people that the communication is E2EE, before propagating some certain level of panic.

Not sure why this got downvoted. Was there any real proofs that WhatsApp msgs can get decrypted and read by the central server?

Besides the AI shit that is optional. Not advocating for WhatsApp but we need to keep the conspiracy theory out of the equation.

The SteamDeck is not a portable. It doesn’t fit regular pants pockets. The performance of the battery isn’t also super impressive. Those two things needs attention.

Could web key directory be adopted for cross platform communication?

As always the right lottery numbers, so far I never got it right but it is what I hope to achieve in the next 5 years

I have 5 different banking apps, all working without an issue. Some I may had to “explore protection mode compatibility” but it is not the rule and is a quick tweak.

If it is a little home server Proxmox is difficult to beat.

Funkwhale may worth a look: https://www.funkwhale.audio/ I used for quite some time and was nice, the main issue was the unmaintained Android app.

I’ll get downvoted but to find music and have a tiny hair of privacy Apple Music may be efficient for the mainstream audience.

I download the audio that I like and store in a local server but I can’t expect every person in the world doing the same.

Why only Fedora?

My family can’t live without Netflix algorithm showing on their face the new documentary or show of the week. I use Stremio, pretty good stuff.

The Thinkbook 14+ 2025 seems to check quite a lot of the boxes. Nevertheless, depending where you live you will have some high taxes to pay if ordered from Aliexpress: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1G_xM0qxA-8

The option with the TGX(Oculink) port to use an eGPU is particularly appealing for some.

There is a guide to install Arch on it: https://github.com/Cyber-Typhoon/Secure_Arch_Install_Oculink_eGPU

It would be nice if they would overcome the 720p/1080p limitation imposed by some stream services https://androidpcreview.com/netflix-hd-android-tv-box/

I was thinking in general. Some games or animes they throw shots of windows on the screen. Sometimes is even just one window and some credits, like small pictures animated. It is not necessarily the split screen.

This one in particularly is an example with two floating windows of animations and behind we have the black screen that is not even covered completely.

I was wondering if there was some naming for this but it doesn’t seem the case.

I have a similar need for a “niche” install. I need Arch for it. I’m doing a laptop installation with LUKS2, TPM2, Secure Boot, systemd-boot with UKI, BTFRS, Apparmor and it has a Oculink eGPU dock station.

What is making NixOS so passionated about it? Is there something very special in NixOS that we are missing in Arch?

We should challenge some of those superlatives that projects such as GrapheneOS can coin from time to time. Those projects are not abstract master entities, they have people behind of it and they are not authorities in all subject matters. They are correct about Gecko browsers insecurities on Android however it may be questionable the use of the term “leagues ahead” in this comparative. I use GrapheneOS and Vanadium but I don’t believe that using some Gecko hardened browser would be so terrible like it sound. Specially if you are not a focused target. For example, I keep Tor as a secondary browser for some specific tasks on my phone.

People could perhaps start helping more the Servo project. They really need some help and for those that program in Rust or want to learn it this could be a very good place to devote your attention.

This looks promising, very similar to Metro but an active project. Thanks for sharing.
