Termux X11's been a thing for some time, it's a full X server for android and can even use gpu accel if your hardware's lucky (usually snapdragon).
This feels pretty useless for running linux, especially when i can root my device for chroot and have gpu accel working with termux x11.
Would be pretty cool if I can run BSD or Windows ARM on a tablet though
seems like its still one of the best linux phones available.
Celeron 300A? oh yeah it's there lol
I would recommend slackware or devuan with xfce or lxde
I'm from an East Asian country. :) Pretty sure I'm almost the only one tho..
It makes the phone harder to use, which is ironically useful to some. tbh I don't understand lol
I don't hate it, but as a PC/phone user it's security features are almost never helpful and always cause issues so I just have it disabled.
archive.org? usually when I'm looking for a expired file I search for the file name, and if it's on the internet archive it usually pops up on the first page of google.
seems to be fine on my galaxy note 10+ with 12gb ram.. it sucks on my 2gb ram msm8974 phone tho.
btw how did you manage to find this month old comment lol
i mean its pretty good if you get used to it.. i remember the shortcuts for all the major tools i use and it's very quick and easy to use for me.
its just the ip, you can use a vpn

seamonkey but it's pretty hard to use without much love nowadays with so many incompatible websites. It's a perfect mail client tho.
Just get Firefox ESR with arkenfox, that should be enough.
The best one is the one you can obtain easily tbh. Old mechanical keyboards from back then are usually pretty good, but looking for a specific model is usually hard.
On android boost is best for me, proprietary but lightweight.
iirc it was released for free some time ago, not sure why. I hope it gets open sourced.
they have a tor hidden service, still seems to work.
i've never used linux mint and i'm curious, how does it differentiate from debian? Might not matter much, but i recall hearing they have their own package with the xedit name so one can't install the original xedit and that's not really great packaging.
Anyone knows what's this on the 5.25" bay?
Saw this tower at a flea market and I'm wondering what's installed above the 5.25" floppy drive. Does anyone know?
Android app with compact ui?
Hello. I used to use RedReader with reddit, but there doesn't seem to be such app for lemmy. Right now I'm using Voyager and it looks/works great, but it's super slow on my ancient phone. Is anyone aware of a native android lemmy client with a compact ui? I'm asking just in case there's something I missed. Thanks!
Edit: I switched to Boost, seems to work great. I do miss swipe to up/downvote though..

Trying to get advice for photo/files storing/syncing
Hi. Sorry for the vague title. Nowadays I'm using multiple computers and get to need files and such from other machines pretty often. My music and photos library has also increased and it's getting much harder to maintain with it being scattered across many machines. Basically I'm trying to have a photo library and plain files(documents, music, etc) shared across computers.
For plain files I'm thinking nfs+samba would be the best approach, but there are problems. They have speed issues, but as I can't afford large space for all my machines I can't keep a full rsync'd local copies everywhere too.
The photos are my bigger concern, as I'm looking for a tagging feature. A plain directory structure would be easy to sync but those tags would differ by programs.. desktop programs like digikam or xnview(sadly proprietary) would work well if I didn't need syncing, but I'm not sure if they'd work reliably with all their configs/files stored over nfs. Plus, these programs would have in
Looking for a program to document things in life.
Hello all. I'm looking for (a) program(s) to manage & document things in life. Mainly these features are what I need:
Currently I'm using SeaMonkey and my phone(android) to manage calendar (so two separated ones), a paper note to write diaries and use dokuwiki for random notes. This setup is too complicated and isn't productive at all.
I do think my requirements are kinda abstract, and there most likely isn't a single program that can do all this. Although basic I'm a novice FreeBSD & Emacs+evil user so *nix-only or text-based utilities are okay. I'm not aware of any program that meets these needs, is there anything that resembles what I'm thinking? Thanks!
XMPP as a Discord alternative for small group?
Hi. I have a group of 6 people using Discord to chat. Recently Discord changed a lot and we're looking for an alternative. We have a few requirements:
IRC isn't an option as chat history is saved on the client, and there's no good integrated way to share files and preview images. Matrix would be an overkill as we're a small group not interested in federation, and the available clients had a few bugs. Mattermost lacks a good mobile app (their current one had bunch of bugs). XMPP appears to be the best as it is extensible and has many clients available.
However, I tried configuring prosody on my FreeBSD server and it seems like it doesn't permanently save chat history or attachment files. Does anyone know if these can be solved? Or is there any better alternative than XMPP
Unbound and AdGuard Home with OpenWrt?
Hello. I just upgraded my ramips router (ipTIME A3004NS-dual, 256mb ram, 64GB USB) to OpenWrt 23.05, so far it's working well. I'd like some extra privacy (my country is known to do some internet censoring) and filter connections to sites I do not want (advertisements, telemetry) and AdGuard Home paired with Unbound seems perfect for this.
Before upgrading I used to run a DoH setup on OpenWrt with CloudFlare's DNS, but I now want to remove dependencies to these public 'private' DNS servers.
I did try searching a lot, but unfortunately as I'm pretty new to networking and hosting things I'm not quite able to understand what I read. Some guides mention using Unbound but still does setup Google/CloudFlare DNS, is that used as a fallback of some sort?
If someone has already done something similar I'd very much appreciate some guidance on how this should be done.. Thanks!
EDIT: I think I got it working.. but I'd be glad if someone can please tell me a way to test it. dnsleaktest.com show
