everything that isn’t my main machine runs linux. my old laptop from 10 years ago, a PC made of my old rig’s parts i use as a NAS and jellyfin server, and i almost got my brother to install linux on his thinkpad.
just looking around for now

you and my dad both. he’s been using it forever
ex-GX user here. i do not miss chrome.
yeah, on android it’s kind of a pain. but being able to use extensions is insanely good.
maybe they have it mapped to enter, you never know with laptop linux users.
i our household it definetely is. selling stuff on ebay or returning packages is most of what we use it for, and 200-300€ plus 10-20€ in ink bottles every year or so will eventually be cheaper too.
not saying you have to buy one for yourself, it’s just worth the money for many people.
brother certainly has a good reputation, but i’ve been using an epson ecotank for a couple years now.
once the 18000 page self-brick counter goes off, i’ll try to reset it. if that doesn’t work, i’ll definetely try getting a brother laser printer. i print B&W most of the time anyways.
they’ll send you a replacement, but they take weeks to reply
i second getting a fairphone, but look into a second battery or a power bank for heavy use.
Fairphone 4 user here, i love it. but ghost touch keeps coming back, i’m on my second screen now.
i daily a Fairphone 4, has neither the best camera nor the best battery life. but it’s the most repairable and durable phone i’ve owned.
i’ve had extremely good experieces with oneplus phones, dunno about custom ROM support though.
i’ve also heard good things about modern motorola phones, if the ROM support is there it’s worth a shot imo.
same, haven’t strayed from standard firefox since it does what i want just fine.
it did warn him to be fair. he had to type out “yes, do as i say”, which is a HUGE red flag. even to me, a farely casual windows user.
android is based on a modified linux kernel, but boesn’t have much else in common.
i think chromebooks don’t get counted as linux, i may be wrong though
i’m using it at my desk where i have one USB-DAC for my speakers and one for my headphones connected to my PC.
that means i have to switch my monitor from DP to HDMI every time i want to play a game (using samsung’s nipple tech), as well as either running my speakers through a splitter cable hooked up the wrong way to get PC and switch audio, or have the switch on my speakers while having the PC on headphones.
way too much hassle, plus i can lose my cursor on the right screen where the switch is, as well as having to blindly drag apps from there as they start. plus i completely miss incoming desktop messages.
and yes, i watch youtube while playing games. that’s why i need PC audio.
but then nintendo wouldn’t be able to shove tons of 6-7 year old hardware down our throats. (the 1st gen’s processor is even older)
i literally own a switch, but getting that fucking thing to work with my display/audio setup is a pain. just to get 1080p at 30fps.
no thanks, i’d rather play it at 1440p at a more stable framerate, with a controller of my choice, with the ability to load mods.
if it runs better, at a higher resolution, with the option of using a reliable controller, i will emulate it.
Watashi ni Tenshi ga Maiorita
has slight pedo vibes tho.
