overview for hellfire103

Hey, all. I just bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab A7, and I would like to install a custom Android ROM on it. After a bit of research, my two options are LineageOS and Murena (aka /e/OS).

Does one have any advantages over the other? Or is it simply a matter of preference?

UPDATE: You will need a machine running Windows 10 or higher in order to successfully flash either ROM!

A ban on politicians lying will be brought in before the 2026 Senedd [the Welsh parliament] elections, the Welsh government has promised.

Counsel General Mick Antoniw [...] promised that the law would disqualify Senedd politicians and candidates found guilty of deliberate deception from being a Member of the Senedd (MS). [...] It is not yet clear whether the proposed law would make lying a criminal offence or a civil sanction. [...] Mr. Antoniw said it was a "matter that goes to the heart of everyone".

People who use distros without systemd, why do you do this? by hellfire103 in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

[-] hellfire103@lemmy.ca 44 points 9 months ago

OpenRC just feels nice
Runit is simple
S6 is really fucking fast
Some distros (e.g. Guix, Void, Gentoo) come with non-systemd init systems by default, but I use them for other reasons

As for why I sometimes use musl, I like BSD. Also, Alpine Linux uses it by default, and most glibc software I've tried works just fine with gcompat.

To be frank:

Good idea in theory
Ancaps and cryptobros ruined it for the rest of us
Monero is okay

Yeah. I heard about this on the radio, and my first thought was, "Oh shit, those suicide rates are going to skyrocket."

My second thought was "Should I throw a bucket of gravy over whoever's responsible, or should I come at them with a cricket bat?"

Some people will find this useful. Yes, we should really just abandon Twitter in all its forms, but there are legitimate reasons to view its content; and if there's a way of doing so without compromising our privacy, surely that's a good thing?

I wouldn't trust the Daily Mail as far as I can throw it. It's objectively the lowest quality, least factually correct, most sensationalist, and most extremely biased mainstream newspaper we have in the UK. Essentially the British equivalent of Fox News.
