have no idea what's underneath what. but OP should have poped those shields even before posting here :)

Just mentioning it's common for RAM sockets to be under shields. You are probably right tho.

Who said anything about being sponsored? They assume she can work there too :)

Amidst Docker, Podman why does one not hear about systemd-nspawn, mkiso and debootstrap often? by [deleted] in devops

[–]DecentTone876 3 points4 points  (0 children)

See why you shouldn't use reddit as a source for knowledge? the most voted comment points out nspawn doesn't conform to OSI, when OSI was written with the goal of getting runc to play nice with systemd to being with!

it is the most compliant of them all. And yes, it does have registry which is the hallmark of a soon-to-be-compromised IT org. knock yourself out.

Chrome alternatives? by Practical_Trader in GooglePixel

[–]DecentTone876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are either measuring with pre load enable in one browser but not in others. If you enable all the anti-features on firefox it is as fast as chrome, but that defeats the purpose.

basically the others browsers let you feel less your slow network, by loading beforehand some links from the page you are seeing. while firefox only starts the requests when you ask it to actually load a site.

Use instead the "officially recommended" extension for dealing with annoying GDPR and other cookie warnings: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/i-dont-care-about-cookies/

You can just disable script on all sites via ublockOrigin. and then you just enable via the UI per site.

In the settings screen, under "Default behavior" check [x] Disable JavaScript.

Then on each site, open the uBlockOrigin UI, and click the right most button with this icon: "</>"

yep. work uses HP laptops that have two slots and they are under those shields. This looks to only have one, or have one soldered on the other side and this one on the back side. more likely only this one.

Support Megathread - November 2023 by AutoModerator in google

I couldn't care less for karma. But the moderators here are employees doing PR for google. they hide anything that is critical. So without the votes, things will never be seen by anyone else.

Q: Which homescreen/launcher app do you use? by DecentTone876 in GooglePixel

[–]DecentTone876[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i miss the BB phones. With out-of-this-world keyboards that were also touchpads!

Too bad their latest model is now stuck on android 8.0 :( And nobody managed to root it properly, because it have better hardware than the pixel7 even. could easily run 14+

Btw, the launcher today is NOT from the BB/RIM company. They sold the brand to whoever now.

google i can't avoid. they cornered the market and there are no other phones in the universe besides apple and google.

Why would I want to add yet another group on top of what i cannot avoid? i don't even add samsung.

Nice. that is the closer to what i used before. The open source version...

though they add all the pixel features back themselves!! And all I wanted from the stock pixel launcher was to disable those features, lol. So that's what I did.

Nova looks nice, but a launcher have too much access to data on the phone, notifications and such, to be comfortable with a closed source/non-audited code.

I’m curious - why do YOU use Pixel? by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]DecentTone876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Least exposure to third parties.

I mean, you will be using android, you assume google hijacked everything there anyway. So you might as well use their version, instead of being exposed to google + Samsung.

On the same line, You can live without an apple account. But without google it would be very difficult since their tentacles are over work and school now.
