still uses glibc right? I think the big thing about alpine is that it uses musl as its libc

vaporware companies don’t release open hardware

it’s not all sunshine and rainbows though, Linux recently removed support for the i486 :(((

i mean ofc he’s bffs with Bill Gates

who makes the thumbnails for phoronix? is this the same hdd that was in a previous one?

generally TLP can do all of the above, so what I do is use powertop and tlp-stat for checking the current configuration, and tlp.conf for setting the configuration

would an ubuntu base support something as new as a 9800 well?

first 3 I wouldn’t recommend to a newcomer, and aren’t support things like this mainly oriented towards enterprise and not consumers?

you can probably also run bsd and 9front :)

Linux is a volunteer project (mostly). There is no “support” like a commercial os, you’ll have to figure out your way around it yourself.

There are Linux User Groups (LUGs) around the world though, which are volunteer groups that help people with their Linux problems. Have a look at if you can find one around you

it’s not that deep bro

yeeah I personally wouldn’t trust something that is"probably" e2ee, especially when there are options that are provably e2ee

to each their own ig

can you verify that it’s E2E encrypted?

the arch wiki says you can, it doesn’t really elaborate on it though

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Minecraft

iirc Netflix or something uses bsd

I don’t really agree with the firmware baked in/firmware loaded at runtime distinction the fsf makes, so I don’t really see the point of not using proprietary firmware wifi cards (like the Intel series), as awesome as ath9k can be

depending on how you manage non-free js these distros are feasible for daily driving though

i still wouldn’t do it but gsp firmware and nvk makes it sorta feasible to game on nouveau

important context:

Regarding vibe coding, Torvalds described himself as “fairly positive” – but not for kernel development. Computers have become more complicated than when he learned to code and was “typing in programs from computer magazines.” Vibe coding, he said, is a great way for people to “get computers to do something that maybe they couldn’t do otherwise.”

This is despite the fact that vibe coding “may be a horrible, horrible idea from a maintenance standpoint.”

yeah you could, depending on if it can run a mainline Linux vm or is supported by postmarketos

you’d just need to port forward to your phone from the router and set up DDNS (if you don’t have a public static ip). same thing as any other server.

I’d highly recommend making the phone headless and controlling it though SSH from another device. it’s way more ergonomic.

my entire phone server setup consumes less than 1W at idle :3

and the “builtin UPS” lasts for a few hours
