nothing can break if you take 2-3 hours one day and fix it all

Hah, well, that's also not knowing my luck and history with phones too. ?

haha

WIndows isos only want to be written to usb from windows with windows media creator or rufus

And to be honest, why would you need a windows usb bootstick? :3

And to be honest, why would you need a windows usb bootstick? :3

to install windows, duh

:P

But what to

Am installing back windows ? my pc not powerfull enough to handle illustrator and photoshop on a vm

I reinstalled Lineage yesterday, set up F-Droid and all (rooted ofc, too many benefits), it took me 3 hours total and it's worth it

It was so laggy i could see my mouse tail when it moves

getting 4h of SoT with the battery going ftom 67% to 48% is nice

Maybe this will be a good project for the holiday.

Did you install the spice drivers?

Hah, whoa!! Battery of the undead, returns to life ??

Did you make sure the vm has enoug hram?

The mouse will always be laggy in kvm until you install the guest drivers

I gave it around 5gb ram reserved 3 for fedora

If that honestly isn't just one of the biggest strengths and pros to using open source on mobile, then I don't know what is, hahahah

Did you install the kvm guest drivers

Did you install the kvm guest drivers

Yes you gave me the command line

Yes you gave me the command line

I didnt

There is no command line. Did you install the kvm guest drivers inside the windows machine

these are all the services that are running, and I don't really need a few of them

could do less

Here this 1

Well, virtualbox is to be only used in emergencies when one can't use kvm with boxes or virt-manager (+ spice-space.org drivers installed) And teamviewer is a heap of shitty software as crappily coded as everyone would've expected really.

This bumped the priority for me to do this by a lot… ?

I always found the personal assistant interesting. Way back, I had an iPhone 4S, the first with Siri, and I remember it just worked so well, naturally. It was just really well-designed to the user and I used it all the time. Then I switched to Android (can't remember the release), and the personal assistant was so awful then, I fell put of the habit of using a personal assistant altogether

Yeah, Siri is good. But the thing is that I speak in English, Siri is in English (a male British actually) and when I need something from a German place the damned thing loses its plot. It doesn't understand that is a different place, somewhere else outside UK. I didn't try with Spanish names or Portuguese yet.... They need to refine that. But on the other hand is wonderful how it replies to my insults. "Yes, I also think you're nice" ?

Inside the vm, right?

Yes

I installed the exe

Which of the ones?

I think the Google one is much better now, but I've lost a lot of enthusiasm because of privacy concerns and how it says it's saving my audio every time I use it. Saving for what…

Saving the audio?? Why?

After that i downloaded and installed my programs

Heheh. If it's having a hard time now, I can't imagine how it would have handled back when I had my iPhone

that geofencing/location barrier feels racist hahaha

Windows guest tools something

This bumped the priority for me to do this by a lot… ?

I gotta say I run only a few apps, so it's not for everyone, most of the services I need are run through the browser

Windows guest tools something

How many cpus did you assing to it?

so it might not be too realistic for a real word heavy usage

I gotta say I run only a few apps, so it's not for everyone, most of the services I need are run through the browser

That's good to know. Will be helpful when I get to exploring it later on then

Can you show screenshots of the virt-manager page with cpu, hdd and memory?

I got a dual core 6200u... And made the vm in boxes... It chose the cpu power auto and i just edited the ram

so it might not be too realistic for a real word heavy usage

Well, I'm not also not really a heavy user of the phone, honestly. Mostly as long is it just works (and doesn't constantly infringe on my privacy), I'm happy

Heheh. If it's having a hard time now, I can't imagine how it would have handled back when I had my iPhone

Oh, but the bad words it does understand them well. The other thing is that iPhone 5s can't handle the energy as efficiently as the newer models so I can't use Siri except if it's plugged. Which takes away a lot of its convenience. But I still love plugging it and cursing Siri. ?

Funny that it picks up those words so well. ?

F-Droid got you covered on that privacy side ;) I still use Instagram/WhatsApp tho

that geofencing/location barrier feels racist hahaha

LOL yes

Anyone like this new design better?

This is easier to create using qt

Also this will be OPENSOURCE and will be done very soon

It's so annoying that you have to break various security features of a system only to get a system that doesn't spy and track you :/

@Wolfshappen

Well, few years ago a friend of mine used to curse Cortana and the said AI would reply offended "Don't talk to me like that, I didn't offend you". ?

Cortana got better comebacks then some humans tbh

Oh, gnome boxes

try to assign more cpu power

rooting a phone should be your right, otherwise the phone is not really yours to own

but of course it should be a resort of more advanced users

Lemme run boxes

With pixel 2 you dont need shazam... Its always monitoring your surroundings for music

That's awesome!

if you know your ways with it, you can achieve better privacy and security than unrooted

I still cannot teach this thing to detect whether I've used Russian or English in the question. It almost always wrong on both directions.

You see? I'm not the only one getting in troubles for mixing languages.

ERROR: S client not available

Cortana got better comebacks then some humans tbh

Now that's true.

The only reason i use rooted phone is to run viper

True. But buying it to break it is even worse.

:) it was used. So, treat it like we donated money to the owner.

rooting a phone should be your right, otherwise the phone is not really yours to own

Sure, it should be rootable. But my point is still that I need to break security features and risk to brick the entire device only to get an OS that respects my privacy.

rooting a phone should be your right, otherwise the phone is not really yours to own

I think this is definitely debatable. I can use my phone exactly the way I want to without rooting it. Does that mean I don't own it just because I have no need to root it?

Rooting is great, don't get me wrong... I just don't think that's the cornerstone for device usability or ownership.

I think this is definitely debatable. I can use my phone exactly the way I want to without rooting it. Does that mean I don't own it just because I have no need to root it?

do you have complete access to its features without rooting tho?

let's agree here that devs closed down the OS only to keep it safe for regular people

do you have complete access to its features without rooting tho?

Absolutely. I'd even say I have more than I need.

Rooting is great, don't get me wrong... I just don't think that's the cornerstone for device usability or ownership.

Well, having the right to do it, doesn't mean you have to do it. It should be doable. So I think having the technical possiblity to root it without loosing benefits is needed

let's agree here that devs closed down the OS only to keep it safe for regular people

Probably

Absolutely. I'd even say I have more than I need.

you got system-wide ad-blocking and backup abilities?

As I said, root is only neccessary for advanced users

but IMO it's really important to be able to have it

Rooting is great, don't get me wrong... I just don't think that's the cornerstone for device usability or ownership.

It is if you dont embrace google, spying or a shitty manufacturer.

you got system-wide ad-blocking and backup abilities?

No, because ad-blocking is against my moral standards and I don't want it.

It is if you dont embrace google, spying or a shitty manufacturer.

I do embrace Google, it isn't spying, and I've had great support from LG.

Well, having the right to do it, doesn't mean you have to do it. It should be doable. So I think having the technical possiblity to root it without loosing benefits is needed

tell that to Sony that loses DRM keys and you lose 50% or more from your camera quality :P

No, because ad-blocking is against my moral standards and I don't want it.

exactly, depends on the user; I am totally pro ad-blocking because I should choose what content I'm served

tell that to Sony that loses DRM keys and you lose 50% or more from your camera quality :P

yes. We really need more libre devices

I do embrace Google, it isn't spying, and I've had great support from LG.

Lol of course it is and no lg is one of the wurst XD

exactly, depends on the user; I am totally pro ad-blocking because I should choose what content I'm served

Yeah, you've got a point. Rooting should absolutely be an option, I don't disagree. I just don't think that defines whether someone is in control of their phone or not. It's use case, as you said.

Yeah, you've got a point. Rooting should absolutely be an option, I don't disagree. I just don't think that defines whether someone is in control of their phone or not. It's use case, as you said.

It very, very much defines if you're in control.

Lol of course it is and no lg is one of the wurst XD

To you it may be, and I get that. It's not spying for me, so it's not a concern.

Without root rights drm, manufacturer applications and google do a lot of deciding on your behalf.

It very, very much defines if you're in control.

No. Not if you have no need for anything it offers.

If you are okay with that then you are okay with that

But you're not in control of it

Thats the difference.

But you're not in control of it

You are. Just because you don't utilize it doesn't mean a damn thing if you don't have any interest in it.

:) it was used. So, treat it like we donated money to the owner.

Okay.

You are. Just because you don't utilize it doesn't mean a damn thing if you don't have any interest in it.

Google has sent back cell tower location even if you explicitely disabled the functionality. Are you okay with that?
