Yeah, banking apps work. If you disable all the Google Play features some features might be wonky. You can also go to the app in settings and turn on Exploit protection compatability mode and that can solve most bugs.

That said, I don’t like the trackers on banking apps, even on a separate profile, so I just access them over my mobile web browser.

On the MacOS side, you can setup the VNC Server by just using the built in Screen Sharing tool. From your Pop!_OS install, you can connect using any VNC client (e.g. TightVNC, TigerVNC, Remmina). I drive all the Zoom Rooms for my org off Mac Minis and that’s how I access them.

As the OP, can confirm it is not furry related. Random pun that came to mind while groggily taking the dog out at 03:00

Debian and its downstream is my big fluffy comfort blankey. Pop!_OS in particular has the smoothest out of the box desktop environment I’ve encountered.

Congrats on taking the dive, comrade. May the Spirit of the Kernel light your way.

It is absolutely hyperbole. If the shoe doesn’t fit don’t wear it.

Of course I’m including the wealthy

I could have rephrased it to clarify that some people are willing/unwilling participants in making sacrifices

• Going without single use plastic items. A family member of mine even throws away tupperware after a single use because, “It’s too much work to wash them.”

• Gas prices too high? Reduce demand by choosing an alternative form of transportation when possible, or trade in that 8 cylinder truck that’s never touched a dirt road, or been to a job site, for something more fuel efficient. Rent a U-Haul for the 1 time every 5 years you have to move your buddies couch.

• Don’t like how mega-corporations monetize your information and do everything they can to make damn certain you don’t ‘own’ anything? If avaible, support or contribute to an alternative even though you will likely receive a less polished product (e.g. Reddit vs Lemmy)

• Have a strong distaste for the rapidly expanding homeless population? Maybe sacritice some profit and don’t raise the rents of your tenants ever year to “fair market rate” when you’ve already paid off the property or have mortage payments that are 1/8th what you’re charging in rent.

I could go on. If you’re poor as shit, then do what you have to do to get through the day. However, if you have the means then maybe, just maybe, stop and consider that convenience and personal gain is possibly not the most important thing in the world.

Just ordered the Oryx Pro. The repair documentation to replace the keyboard is 2 screws. By comparison, I had to replace the keyboard on an X1 Carbon at work last week and it required literally disassembling the entire thing. The entire board and the display had to come off.

Gaaaahhhh, I really wanted to hold out for my Framework 16 pre-order (it was batch 4 or something), but I cancelled and got the System76 Oryx Pro. I would have loved to have an all AMD 16" laptop from Framework, but unfortunately my old ThinkPad finally shit the bed today. I’m currently typing this out from my Steam Deck, so time became an issue 🤦 Hopefully Framework has a fully established foot in the market in 6-10 years when I have to go hunting again
