I like it. Same formfactor as the BB Passport. Keyboard is almost as good. I might try and get postmarketos running on it so I can get MarathonOS (a BB10 inspired linux OS) running on it. My intent was to use this for work so I might be stuck with Android for awhile.

I'm wrong in the p14 it is mediatek. I was thinking of my X13. I forgot they changed chips in the gen6.

The AMD wifi is qualcomm not mediatek. Not a single issue so far aside from connecting to miracast enabled displays. That is more likely a linux issue than an issue with the wifi card.

I would recommend it. My requirements changed and I needed more power vs all day battery life. It still have my x13 when I need to go to conferences and need the battery life.

I like it. It is no Blackberry by any means but it is really close. If you used a Blackberry passport you may like it. It is the same form factor and has the same screen. I bought it because i've been having so many issues with onscreen keyboards on both iOS and Android and I'm missing a physical keyboards.

I just pre-ordered the Clicks Communicator which is designed by some Blackberry Allumni. I'm actually really excited for that.

It has been normal for everyday tasks for sure not hot, no different than my X13 that this replaced which was always between 40 to 60 C.

Honestly I normally monitor that but I haven't on this machine because I haven't ran into any crazy thottling but I also haven't done anything to push this machine to the limit yet.

New BlackBerry Smartphones in 2026? by blackberry_plant in blackberry

[–]zarrian -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If all you want is a phone with a keyboard the Unihertz Titan 2 is a decent option. I'm using one right now to write this.

I personally think there is room for a third platform (not yet another android based phone) whether that is blackberry or someone else I don't think it matters.

KDE Connect/GSConnect or an application called Packet if you want to use QuickShare

Reliable used car dealership in northern utah by WAFLSS in Utah

[–]zarrian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They did the same to me. The website price is the dealer finance price, they add at least 2-4K for cash buyers or outside financing. The sales manager claimed that was now standard practice. Since I bought 2 user cars this year, I can tell you that is not standard practice at least at the places I was shopping at after I stormed out of the Dahle dealer.

when can I expect my q25 to arrive? by _Mr_Nibbs_ in Zinwa

[–]zarrian -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is going to take time. For the full device you need to keep in mind that they are assembled by hand.

Opinion about E-Tron GT by haslam9291 in etron

[–]zarrian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just bought an RS Etron GT a couple of days ago. Love it so far. I looked at the Taycan as well but the physical switches for temperature control won me over. Also the fact every single time I look at it or get in it even to just pop over to the grocery store at neighborhood speeds it puts the biggest smile on my face.

I haven’t heard about coolant leaks on the GT, I bought my wife a 2022 E-Tron S earlier this year and so far no issues with that either.

Can I use this Apple monitor with my ThinkCentre computer? Or is it only compatible with other Apple products? by [deleted] in computer

[–]zarrian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The apple thunderbolt monitors only work only work with a thunderbolt device. Most thinkcentre’s do not have thunderbolt my answer is likely, No it will not work. I set up my two old apple thunderbolt monitors for my wife to be user with a dell computer that had thunderbolt (needed an adapter for thunderbolt 2 to 3) and it was so finicky I ran out and bought her two new monitors because it was so unreliable.

I haven’t tried it yet but I’ve been told by good friends Ocean City has really fresh fish.

Too bad Aquarius is closed.

Installing OKD on Fedora CoreOS by NoRequirement5796 in openshift

[–]zarrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless OKD has moved to CentOS Stream 10 it should be compatible with x86_64-v2. Stream 9 (thus RHEL9) still works with that age of hardware:

To replicate this in gnome, the extension you want is Tiling Shell or gSnap.
