It’s horrible about sleeping. If you want your battery, turn it off. The latest update seems to be better, but I wouldn’t trust it in your shoes.

Rotisserie chickens are probably made with ones close to the expiry date. Nobody is going to buy a whole raw chicken that’s best before tomorrow.

“i did it on accident” blows my mind. It’s by accident, not on accident.

I’ve been on Samsung for years and I don’t get this argument anymore. There’s no ads on my phone, and one ui is pretty smooth.

I do use my own launcher so maybe that covers it up, but new Samsung isn’t like what they were a long time ago.

As someone who doesn’t have kids, nope.

I don’t remember a manual at all, I think I just learned how to code by messing with nibbles (snake) and gorillas. I remember my friends qbasic came with those two sample games when mine didn’t, so I had to copy them on floppy off his pc.

I was coding around 8 in logo, dos qbasic and later on Lego mindstorms.

Wa is IO Wait. CPU time burned spent waiting for disk

Hi is hardware irq, similar concept but for hardware devices.

I used to run it on about 800 prod boxes and we provided the hosting for the Gentoo forums. It’ll always have a soft spot in my heart, but even with us using binary packages I won’t miss how long emerge takes.

Boot a clonezilla or Linux CD, don’t use your windows install. It should have proper USB support as long as you actually have USB ports.

20 minutes, thanks to my dog. If not for him I’d easily go days.

Highly recommend dogs. 100% worth it.

Typically unlocking the bootloader requires a full wipe. It’s a security method intended to keep an attacker from compromising your OS to access your data if the phone is stolen.

I’ve never rooted a phone without requiring a wipe, but I’ve owned mostly Samsung

So they can show you hyper targeted ads, obviously.

They say they’re holding steady, and they are, look at those graphs.

They didn’t say they were holding steady at ideal levels.

Yes, configuring memory to be used for zram would mark it as unavailable for kernel fs caching.

Does iostat show your disks being pegged when it’s slow? Odd that performance would be so bad on those specs, makes me think you have disk Io issues maybe.

This guy made his own floppy and managed to write / read from it. It’s an interesting watch.

I don’t think signal data is included in system backups unless your device is rooted. You’d have to go into signal and back it up explicitly.

I just turned this feature on. I don’t backup my device all, I just expect everything to be in my cloud.

The ceo stepped down and now its just being rolled fully into Microsoft.

Slackware on a whole lot of lettered floppy disks.
