Does Cromite have support for auto-filling from 3rd party password managers? When I last used Bromite, it couldn’t so I never ended up using it as my main browser

I upgraded to the Pi4 but I use this case. It has a daughter board that lets me use an m.2 SATA SSD over USB. But any USB to SATA adapter should work fine

I’d bet $1 it’s the SD card. My 3B+ used to have the same problem. Been running pis off some sort of SSD ever since, no issues.

Why choose OpenBSD over FreeBSD? Any noticeable differences? I know it’s supposed to be a more security focused BSD but I hear it has fewer maintainers? The idea of a BSD appeals to me but the hardware compatibility holds me back. Just curious what your experience is like

Great, now partner with Microsoft and merge it with Windows so the majority of Android users might finally stop emailing themselves, or sending files through their messaging app of choice

You’re thinking ahead to 30-40 years from now.

I think it’ll affect us a little sooner but generally, yeah, that’s exactly it

If the narrow screen bugs you, it’s worth considering the Pixel Fold IMO

I had the Pixel 7 Pro and when it was cool outside, it was great. It ran warm though and I’m outside a lot so when it got to summer, it became frustrating to use. Just getting the camera to open took twice as long and navigating the UI would be inconsistently choppy. I’m probably going to wait until the Tensor G4 or G5 (the later being rumored to use TSMC’s foundry) before seriously considering a pixel again.

Fold 6 it is

Ignoramuses who believe Android is technologically falling behind

Not sure if that was a general statement of directed at me so I guess I’ll say that I don’t believe Android is falling behind, I just think that if the overwhelming majority of Americans are using iPhones, it will be detrimental to the experience of using an Android phone in America as the years go on. Recent articles have said it’s something like a 50/50 split of between iPhone and android users who are adults but closer to 87/13 for teens. That’s concerning because they are getting locked in and unless Apple makes a major misstep, they’ll likely get iPhone’s for their kids when the time comes. It’s looking like a slow burn

How do you like your fold 5? I was considering getting one but I’m kind of turned off due to the narrow cover screen; holding out for the fold 6. I haven’t used a Samsung phone since touchwiz and have been switching between Pixel’s and iPhones ever since. How is OneUI after a year or so of use, any slowdown or have they pretty much fixed that?

I’d much rather Google innovate, make a better product, and not cancel it, but if this brings more young people over to Android in America, I’m all for it.

If things continue how they have been, I won’t realistically be able to use Android because the overwhelming majority of people around me will be using iPhones. That has a knock on effect of poor support on Android apps, missing features, missing out on integration experiences, etc. which makes it harder and harder to use Android. You could still choose to use Android but if like 80%-90% of people are using iPhones, you may as well be using an old flip phone.

Edit: to be clear, I’m not saying iPhones are better than Androids. My concern is with phone use trends in the US and what that will mean for us in the next few decades

Good to know. I’ll be a little more weary of their products going forward, thanks

I’m pretty sure their headphones and watches are just aliexpress junk

Their sub-brand “CMF by Nothing” for sure is junk rebranded.

Presumably, you’ve had one of their Nothing phones. What specific issues have you experienced? Is it graphical glitches or like, show stopping bugs?

• Google creates a cross platform iMessage competitor
• Only nerds know about it because Google didn’t market it
• Google gets upset that no one is using their cross platform iMessage competitor
• Google cancels their cross platform iMessage competitor
• repeat

For me, Allo was the last straw. Hangouts before it. Google Voice before it. Google talk before it.

fool me once, shame on – shame on you. Fool me – you can’t get fooled again

Points 1 & 2 are true for all of Android as far as I’m aware. Point 3 is also probably true for all of Android past a certain version but I have no way of testing so I disclosed it affects pixels. I don’t know what you latched onto that made you so upset.

If you can’t buy an Android device with those features, for all intents and purposes, Android isn’t capable of those features. If you think OP is building an Android device with the hardware for features 1 & 2 but stopped by Lemmy to figure out if the Android OS was capable of using the hardware, you are delusional. Context is important.

Edit: I know you don’t actually think that, just making a point ^

Send links to prove me wrong 🤷‍♂️

YOU made that comparison

Yes. Because that’s what OP asked for:

I’m genuinely curious, what can iOS do that Android can’t?

So some iOS devices can do things that all Android devices can’t?

Yes. Op didn’t stipulate that the differences needed to be true for all of iOS

I mean I can cherry pick stuff some Android devices can do, too.

That’s not what Op asked

None of my four iOS devices can do any of what you’ve listed. (2 phones, 2 ipads)

I stated some features were hardware specific and if your devices don’t support Wireguard (my third point) then they are really old and likely not supported anymore or maybe work devices that are locked down. Regardless, I didn’t say anything that wasn’t true and I stated caveats where necessary; I answered OP’s question.

I clearly don’t know enough about reverse ssh connections.

My understanding is that you tell the VPS to connect to your computer, a shell pops up on your end, and commands run in it will control the VPS. It helps get around firewalls and makes it less obvious to defenders that an attacker has control of a box because it’s not an inbound connection, it’s an outbound connection.

What’s your workflow? So you ssh into the VPS and maybe use Tmux or Screen to connect to a terminal session, that session is connected to your home machine but instead of sending commands back to the VPS, it sends commands to your home computer?

But ultimately, it turns out I like interesting technical problems, learning things, and buying stuff I don’t need off the internet - more than chatting to people I don’t know.

This is exactly why I’ve never taken a legitimate look into the hobby. I think I’ll keep admiring from afar until I find a good use for it

This concept makes sense but I always assumed ham radio was just about audio. That’s pretty cool

So now I’m more into Linux and self-hosting

You probably know about this already but just in case, since you have an interest in radio and you have experience with antennas, you might have a cool project that could benefit from LoRa. There’s a few open source projects that incorporate the tech to make sensors for crops or messaging friends at festivals when cell towers are overloaded

Just curious, why have the reverse ssh connection to a VPS?
