Uh, I assumed that was a minimum viable product requirement.

OH MAN. I worked on an Android tablet that used a rockchip CPU, not the one listed here but an older one (I think RK3026). What a PIECE OF SHIT. I don’t wish that tablet on my worst enemy. Battery life was like sub 2 hours with a 3200 mAh battery. Sometimes it would start running hot, and you could watch the batter percentage go down one percent every 10-20 seconds. The only way to break it out was to reboot it or let it die.
We later upgraded our CPU to the 3288, one gen older than this one, and it was significantly improved, but still very entry level.
Pretty much. How to guarantee I will never buy your brand ever again. Not that I would ever buy a Samsung anyway. Or anything preloaded with Facebook for that matter.
It was my first time using a Linux GUI. I was comfortable with CLI, but it was my first time having it installed on a laptop instead of just sshing into a server somewhere.
So naturally, instead of learning how the GUI worked, I tried changing it to be exactly like Windows. I was doing things like making it so I could double click shell scripts and other code files and they would run instead of opening them up in an editor. I think you see where this is going, but I sure as hell didn’t.
Well, one of my coworkers comes over and asks me to run this code on this device we were developing. We were still in the very early stages of development, we didn’t even have git set up, so he brought the code over on a USB stick. I pop it into my laptop. I went to check it once by opening it in an editor by double clicking on it… Only it ran the code that was written for our device on my laptop instead of opening in an editor.
To this day, I have no idea what it did to fuck my laptop so bad. I spent maybe an hour trying to figure out what was wrong, but I was so inexperienced with Linux, that I decided to just reinstall the OS. I had only installed it the day before anyway, so I wasn’t losing much.
In the winter months, I live off of unsweetened herbal tea with no caffeine.
In my friend circles, the passenger was responsible for playing for the driver.
Congrats! I had that happen a few years ago, and it is a great feeling. Cherish it! You have worked hard and earned this!
Ironically, I have had some really bad French toast in my day. Like, so bad I hated anything with cinnamon on it for years. For decades, the smell of French toast made me want to vomit. I couldn’t even go to breakfast joints that served it.
Gen Xers: am I a joke to you?
I have solar panels and a backup battery. I was actually disappointed when the power didn’t go out when it got cold here in Texas last week.
I feel like a very high percentage of posts and comments here are just “Americans bad.” And as an American, even though the things they are complaining about don’t apply to me specifically, it makes me feel very unwelcome.
I’m sorry, I must have responded to the wrong comment. That comment was supposed to be in an entirely different conversation.
Edit: Oh, I just reviewed my inbox. I thought you replied to a different comment of mine. I’m so dumb. Carry on.
I have a lock that I can check the status of on my phone, and even lock it from my phone if I forgot. It’s really good for my peace of mind. No more getting up in the middle of the night to check the lock.
How are you closing the program? I don’t mean with the X button on the desktop environment. I mean command line programs.
I was a kid when the prequels came out. I remember the hate for them, but most of my friends that were my age all loved them, as did I.
I think people tend to like what they grew up with and dislike what comes out when they are older.
You can see this pattern in Pokemon games as well. I grew up with gen 2 and gen 3. When gen 4 came out, it seemed like everyone hated it. Same with gen 5. But now most people act like gen 5 was the last good one.
If no one else has this issue, it could very well be something unique to my internet connection!
It happens constantly both on my laptop (suse) and my Steam Deck (arch). Same exact behavior. I gave up trying to debug it, and I just keep retrying the update command until the list is empty.
Oh, I see. My work only knows I’m done by when I move my tickets to complete on Jira, so I just leave them as in progress until my due date. I work from home, so I just watch TV or play video games while sitting near my work laptop to respond to emails or chat messages in the meantime.
Imagine trying to control how someone says a word.
I remember being upset about the exact same thing when 4G first launched.
