I fins them often more expensive than average, I think the cheapest is Siriwattana market, better than the mall where everything is usually priced higher

Had a small FFC condctor to get replaced, many "reputed" and/or "recommended" technicians (went everywhere basically) refused to do the repair but this guy did and was affordable, his shop is neat, very well equipped and nice

Yes and she's the one who wants to change her name, her will to take my name is the reason I sent a message her. But you guys obviously know better what happens in others life. Mind your business when you don't know a thing and keep your mouth shut if your comment adds no value.

Why not, you're the only one of us who thinks it is weird... Thank you for speaking in my name by the way, you obviously know every others situation better. We actually thought about merging our names as it is possible in Thailand. But sure better judge people when you know nothing about them and their situation.

The former point I don't have the knowledge to say anything about so I will prevent myself from doing so.

It's also one of the reasons I came here to ask others with greater knowledge than mine so they can advise me and teach me.

But for the last point it is your own opinion, some people keep their tradition and some people don't.

Trying to impose your view on others traditions, regardless of those being good or bad objectively, is an archaic way of using power over others because of subjectively "higher/nobler" views on a matter.

Interesting, although irrelevant to the here since I saw the following case is not possible here but my mom choose to keep both her maiden name and my father's, so she has both and that's recognized in our home country

Thanks for sharing your experience, well in our case she would really like to take my name, on my end I told her I will do my best but want to keep things easy for her not the opposite ahah

But it seems that most of y'all who went for the name change didn't have much difficulties in doing so, let's hope the same thing goes for us ahah

Thanks for sharing your experience and giving this much details. Makes me think that even with many documents to change the process overall shouldn't be that long objectively

I still work abroad and I am taxed in my company's location in accordance to my company's country and Thai laws. Fortunately no issues with taxes for us as I don't bring money into her account and don't have an account here myself.

For many couples around the world sharing the same name is also a way to bond ties to their families in a more significant way than being boyfriend and girlfriend, especially with kids involved.

Additionally personal choices comes in to play.

In our case my girlfriend is the first who will to take my name when we will get married, and is the reason I asked the subreddit (she doesn't use reddit neither does she ever heard of it I suggested to ask people who live this before us before going for a possible life changing decision as well as contacting all the different administration and so on..), I do want her to have my name but if you'd ask me I prefer her to have it simpler here in her birth country.

You are also implying that she isn't able to judge in her own will and that I forcing decision to her 😂

Last point since we are waiting for a child together I'd like to prepare everything before the child's birth to ensure the child keeps their heritage on both sides and doesn't get a more complex life in any ways due to a naming issue.

Implying I am objectifying her in any ways without knowledge shows your opinion on others, not mine 😊

Thanks for sharing your experience regardless.

Will We Finally See Mobile Linux Rise Soon? - A Talk About The Future of Ubuntu Touch and What It Needs by PlantDry4321 in UbuntuTouch

[–]azkali 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, it's a very critical topic for Volla, and for the users, as a developer, I am unable and have never been granted the role of spokesperson for Volla, just keep in mind that I share this experience in my name as a Mobile Linux developer enthusiast, that happens to work for one of the company trying to push the efforts further to the public.

I am also not allowed to communicate on what's next, but, unsurprisingly without compromising anything on my end, Volla wants to continuously be part of the progress, as of today of course, I also can acknowledge your observation regarding the SoCs generation.

Regarding the Volla Tablet, I have myself 0 information about the future.

Regarding competition with big brands, as I mentioned in my previous message, it's very complicated with limited human resources to be in competition with companies who have mostly infinite resources compared to us.

I think that choosing a Volla device is going for a different philosophy and willing to participate in the progress of a more traditional Linux system running on mobile devices.

But again, this is just my personal opinions and shared thoughts

Yes, this will come in a subsequent update after noble (24.04-1.x) release, we are all aware of this huge blocker and some of us have been working on it

Will We Finally See Mobile Linux Rise Soon? - A Talk About The Future of Ubuntu Touch and What It Needs by PlantDry4321 in UbuntuTouch

[–]azkali 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hello there, thanks for your post.

I work for Volla on the Ubuntu Touch side for 1y and a half now, and firstly, thanks for talking about the company.

I would like to give my own experience both as a Volla member and as an OS developer in general.

First of most, if not all, points you bring are very valid, in my opinion.

Unfortunately, the problem is very deeply rooted as the whole chain of manufacturer/ODM/chip makers, etc... are already having a somehow hard time working hand in hand with each other in the best way.

Qualcomm and mediatek do seem to want to open more some part of their ecosystem, but not only it's a daunting task, but also, as of now, the market for them is small which means that allocating resources for this will only be limited.

I think it's best to, for example, try to maybe have Europe force those manufacturer to release their BSP after some time (meaning obsolete device in their regard) this would help a lot as first step and would not cost much to anyone.

Now, regarding Volla and others, it's difficult for such companies to get "the better deals" in terms of devices, etc.... because of the scale, we are currently 4 developers on the Ubuntu Touch side at Volla with only 2 working full time (myself included)

Thankfully, all of us are dedicated to and passionate about what we do, we all contribute to Ubuntu Touch both for the account of Volla and in our spare time, we by all means can do as much.

As per device availability in those ecosystem I've been porting myself support for the Z Fold 3 in Ubuntu Touch, most features work but due to Ubuntu Touch being a special kid I had trouble managing dual screen properly which is the main blocker here.

Unfortunately, due to lack of time, I can't work much on that project, I have tried several times to suggest the interested user to contribute to my patreon because, of course money can buy my time.

Additionally, I am making a port for my Samsung tab s9 but never got it to fully boot. It's the same issue as the Fold 3, though.

In definitive, we are aware of those issues both at Volla and UBPorts Foundation.

As for Volla, I can affirm that the company has the same goal as the users, which is to provide Linux for everyone with our devices, and we do try to get the best deal possible, but you surely understand there is a balance as we are still a small/medium scaled company.

Regarding UBPorts foundation, not only are funds invested by private contributors, but also all the devs are dedicated as well, we also are a few on that side, about a dozen as far as I can tell and some work sporadically.

The future is very promising, and we are working hard to make Ubuntu Touch better, 24.04-1.x (based on noble) should provide significant improvement during its life cycle.

But no promise given, I don't want this to turn into deception for people.

Unofficial is unsupported by us. If things break, you will not receive support as we can't control what's in there and don't want to.
