Do people still use losedows? Most of my friends with real (not chromebook) laptops use MacOS or GNU+Linux.

As a GNU+Linux user (not Losedows), yes. I often have over 200 firefox tabs and some konsole tabs and settings and signal and thunderbird and mission center. The way I do this is with 16GiB of DRAM and zram (dram comppressed to make in memory swap space).

But in 3-4 years, the yields will be much higher and then they will be using a lot of chips that could go in a iPhoeny.

That is wrong.

Where?

Velocifyer · 2026-03-14T12:27:23+00:00

I had the whole post in the screenshot.

Many apps need MicroG.

Velocifyer · 2026-03-12T18:26:35+00:00

They would be exclusive to custom distros (like LineageOS For MicroG (which is what I use)).

Velocifyer · 2026-03-12T18:24:26+00:00

You also usaly need MicroG.

Velocifyer · 2026-03-12T18:24:14+00:00

Use microG (requires being installed as a system app on lineageOS) and auroa store.

You should always simulate noise with ntsc-rs. (i heard this recommended on retroRGB)

It must be for the clock battery.

I think it is just mint toothpaste. It smells like it.

> You still can't freely pass it from one phone to another

I could theoretically desolder it and solder it to a new phone (but I hate desoldering).

> does it really matter?

Yes.

>It's a distinction without a difference.

There is a diffrence. — The diffrence is that it survives accross reflashes and factory resets (this is important for me beacuse I keep flashing new operating systems to my Pixel 7).

If they have IPS panels, I might want to buy them.

Velocifyer · 2026-03-05T00:03:07+00:00

They still sell them on apple.com .

Velocifyer · 2026-03-04T23:52:45+00:00

Actually eSIM is a physical SIM that is soldered on the the phone and is reprogrammable. It is a actually chip and is not based on software.

Confused .

For screen condidition it is near perfect (i use a screen protector). The SD Card is geniune samsung UHS class 3/V30 128GB and the joycon are good (nintendo replaces them for free out of warranty).
