Not OP, but I’m aware of it just from seeing it mentioned in threads like this. There might be a community or list available showing all these cool things but a lot of the time it just goes around by word-of-mouth.

Oh my gosh, that solution is incredibly smart. I’ve been wanting to keep my phone below 80% since I got it, but ultimately was trying to manually check it and gave up, and two years later my Pixel 4a battery is pretty poor.
I’m setting this up, thank you so much. I think I do even have a WiFi adapter somewhere I hadn’t found a use for.
I made the same mistake and was initially like “50wpm? Amateur.” Once I saw it was Android, I shut my mouth with my 20wpm on my phone.
Steam also has so many features that cracks usually can’t or don’t offer. Friends system, anticheat, workshop modding, cosmetics, multiplayer (although this is actually a case of it usually being locked behind Steam), fast updates, Proton, just to name a few.
It was WHAT? Time to dust off my HP Jornadas
How hard is it to port LOS? I’ve been wanting to do it for a couple obscure devices I have but I’ve read the documentation and felt overwhelmed.
You’re thinking of Puffin Web Browser, which is definitely a very bizarre approach. However, I believe they recently discontinued their ios port.
I respectfully disagree. Based on what you’ve said, it sounds like you’ve asked your friend multiple times to use something else, and there’s a chance they’re trying to be respectful to you by politely declining to hear more suggestions.
I’ve been on both ends of this, I’ve been pushed to look at games I could’ve been interested in but just didn’t feel like giving a novel back to my friend as to why I’m not going to buy it, and I’ve tried to push friends onto Linux and that ultimately resulted in them getting pissed off with me.
It took me a while to realize, there is no wrong operating system to use, there is no wrong social platform to use. People are willing to try new things, but at their own pace and if they can see that there’s an easy transition, but it’s more than that.
I used to think the more people I get onto Linux, the more I’m doing my part for the market share and in turn the software gets better for me and for them, but what I failed to realize is that I was no different to a Jehovah’s Witness, and I certainly came off as annoying as them to my friends. I don’t care what they use now, but if they’re ever interested in help on something that I’d love for them to use, I gladly help them and answer any questions they have, and so far, that’s worked better anyway.
I just fear that you’re going down the same path I did. I fear your friend isn’t copping out of wanting ads, Chrome, iOS, etc. They just want to avoid a confrontation with you.
Maybe I’m looking into this too far, but I think if someone’s happy to have things the way they like them (ads, Chrome, etc.) and clearly doesn’t want to elaborate on it, they have every right to not elaborate further.
Let them find it their own way. Or maybe they won’t, but it’s their choice to make.
Well I think you’ll never be pleased with a platform like this, and you’re probably not the target audience.
There is ThumbKey on F-Droid that, if you get good at the layout, I imagine would be ideal for that phone.
It’s done both on the server and client side, using signatures and block chain, something like that. There’s videos you’ll find online that explain it much better than my 2c would, and I’d imagine wiki.vg would have it documented in detail if it’s still maintained.
The cutoff for migrating was only a few days ago actually… I think they’ve somewhat extended it so if you want to keep what you’ve paid for, I’d strongly suggest looking into migrating.
If you don’t have access to the email linked though, good luck…
No, iOS can absolutely be updated, but only up to where Apple stops supporting the device. I think my iPhone SE 1st gen was released on iOS 9, and it got to iOS 15, where Apple did not release iOS 16 for it. However it still gets security updates and probably will for about another year, based on Apple’s history.
I still have my first gen iPhone SE on iOS 15, still completely usable in 2023 although I am noticing more apps only available on iOS 16, mostly newer releases such as Lemmy clients, ChatGPT (the app), etc.
I don’t think this is too bad for a 6 year old phone. I used to daily drive my Galaxy S5 until about three years ago when it was 5 years old, and that was forced up to modern LineageOS at that point because the original Samsung firmware just wasn’t cutting it.
There’s a lot of things I hate about Apple which I could rag on for days, but the argument of “You need to replace your iPhone every two years” is an uninformed opinion, and a baseless argument.
Well, hang on a second. I haven’t used Steam in about 2 months now just as I’m studying, so maybe I’m missing some recent development, but Steam has worked for me near flawlessly on various Linux distros, from Ubuntu to Arch to openSUSE.
I’d say take a step back, I presume you’re on Linux, and just make sure this isn’t something your own PC that’s causing Steam not to work. Checking logs and whatnot to at least begin with, checking how it’s installed and if installing it in a different manner fixes it, basic troubleshooting steps.
Maybe Steam is absolutely borked, but usually, the way I see it is that realistically, if Steam works on popular distros like Ubuntu (which I imagine is the main one they would check against as well as whatever SteamOS is based on), then it’s actually something wrong with my setup, and it’s on me to fix or workaround. If its clearly something wrong with Steam, lodge a bug report. If they don’t respond to you then I think sure you’re justified to say they don’t want your money.
Until then I don’t think it’s entirely fair to seemingly come out of nowhere, and instead of doing what most other people do and say “Hey, Steam’s crashing and unusable, here’s the info I have, help?” you look like you’re just accusing Valve of not supporting your likely niche distro on your specific hardware.
Maybe I’m wrong about all the assumptions I’m making here but you’re not exactly giving a lot of info here, and to me this just looks like an unproductive bitchfest about a program, and I think that’s why people are down voting your post.
I think being unreliable is not accurate. I’m doing the whole password manager thing in what can be only described as the most unreliable way, by self hosting it, and so far I literally haven’t had any downtime (touch wood).
Even with LastPass being compromised, the database itself was still encrypted and the only way in would be to guess your master password. If you have even a half decent master password, that should be plenty of time for you to have both changed your passwords, and ideally changed password managers at that point.
I really don’t agree with recommending just remembering passwords in your head, because we’re all human and we’re bound to be lazy and start reusing passwords for certain services. And sometimes, you might have no choice but to be signed up to all different things. Even just the bare essentials for me would be email, my bank account, my superannuation, my local government account, my work password, my laptop password. That’s too many passwords for me to keep track of and I know that.
If I were you, based on what you’re saying, I’d probably recommend to you a local password manager that just uses a local vault, like KeePass-compatible managers, because you’re entirely managing where your passwords are and how securely they’re stored, and they’re not open to the internet. I used to have this setup, but found it ultimately difficult to keep the database in sync on all my different devices (2 laptops, desktop, 2 phones, and tablet).
I do self host and it’s worth it. I just have a Raspberry Pi in the corner next to the router running all the time and I’ve had no issues for about a month of doing it now.
Ah yes, Lemmy mirrors Reddit well. It even replicates those times when it looks like your comment didn’t go through so you hit submit a couple more times and your comment comes through 3 times.
Short answer: GeyserMC sidesteps that player authentication process Java players need to do
Long answer:
I’ve used and set up GeyserMC before. It sounds like the server you’re joining has online-mode on, which requires all Java players who are joining to have a valid Java account and current authentication.
GeyserMC, being a mod to the server, entirely sidesteps this entire process. Your Bedrock cracked client requests to join and GeyserMC, being the way your client communicates with the server, just let’s you in. It just sends your client the chunks, the entities, etc. and lets you interact with them, and Java players are shown an additional Player entity (being you).
GeyserMC actually has authentication a server owner can set up that does require a valid Bedrock account or valid Java account, but it seems the server(s) you’re playing hasn’t set this up.
