This is a test account for testing out lemmy. Otherwise I’d choose lemmy.sdf.org.

Now I use this on school computers.

Doesn’t work for me, must be different room.
In high school I was sometimes late because I had to find empty restroom, which sometimes meant switching between different buildings (4 of them).

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hate Android!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I felt like I should add something to defense side, so I did a quick install of Linux Mint limited to 4GB of RAM, with no swap.
Image
I didn’t know what to run, so here’s LibreOffice Impress, SuperTuxKart, and Firefox with this Lemmy post open, streaming internet radio, playing 1080p YouTube video, and an additional tab with forum post about forcing software rendering as SuperTuxKart was horribly broken inside the VM.

Fits into the 4GB.

Additionally, just for fun, you can see the RAM usage on my host, also nearing full usage. You may also see a pretty solid benchmark of the VM disk in the screenshot. This is because I installed the VM into tmpfs on the host.

Seems pretty damn usable, even for some multi-tasking.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hate Android!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah, a lot of programs are just fucking inefficient.
I’ve recently been looking around my system to see what’s eating my RAM. Mullvad VPN eats around 500MiB because the GUI is using Electron…
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I hate Android!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I have 12GB of RAM in my phone (in comparison to 4GB in my mini PC (good enough for XFCE (although the browser will still eat a good chunk))), the only thing that runs realiably is Termux.

But the power management is just shit. My last 2 phones kill the fucking built-in alarm clock. I can set it to unrestricted in settings, I can enable exception in DuraSpeed, or do whatever many steps the current device needs, but at best it’s a coin flip whether alarm will work or not.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valid point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
I usually get plastic sleeves with those, so yes, I just have a stack of cards in my pocket. At least I can fit it in together with a phone.

Although I don’t know how to deal with coins. A jacket brings me extra pockets at least, which is why I can more or less only use cash during winter.
Buying a wallet requires a choice. Searching for something right, and I am too lazy for that, so in the pocket it goes. Unfortunately, I often lack pockets. So if I am not traveling, I’ll just leave out my phone, so I can still fit in keys, cards, and a shopping bag. After all, I don’t need a phone most of the time anyway.

/s if it wasn’t blatantly obvious

Not necessarily.

The patient disclosed that he had intravenously injected his own semen as an innovative method to treat back pain. He had devised this “cure” independent of any medical advice. Upon further interrogation of this alternative therapy, he revealed he had injected one monthly “dose” of semen for 18 consecutive months using a hypodermic needle which had been purchased online.

Maybe if they got rid of DRM. It sounds like Blu-Ray, especially UHD would be too much pain on Linux. And anyway, all the solutions are just based around usage of leaked keys (which will keep getting revoked).

How come CDs don’t need DRM? Perhaps they didn’t think of it in the past (before CD-R), but I’d say it keeps proving itself useless over the years.
CDs just work, and will just work.
Leaked Blu-Ray player keys can and will eventually get revoked. So the best bet is to just rip it to a HDD/NAS ASAP.
But at that point it’s just unnecessary steps to obtain same result as torrenting what someone else already ripped.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I found pre-installed (unremovable) malware on my phone, and ESET doesn't seem to be checking system apps... (Ulefone Armor 24)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Nope. You need root access to use sudo. It just runs a shell natively under Android. But you can run QEMU inside Termux.

Without root, you get this:
```
No 'su' binary found
SU_SEARCH_PATHS: /system/bin/su /debug_ramdisk/su /system/xbin/su /sbin/su /sbin/bin/su /system/sbin/su /su/xbin/su /su/bin/su /magisk/.core/bin/su
sudo requires a 'su' binary that supports the '-c', '--shell', '--preserve-environment' and '--mount-master' options
```
Is there a way to select specific frequency bands on common Android smartphones (something with custom ROM support) besides giving root access to closed-source app like NSG?

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I found pre-installed (unremovable) malware on my phone, and ESET doesn't seem to be checking system apps... (Ulefone Armor 24)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

Is there a reason you went with ulefone?

Unique hardware, and manual band selection (within MTK Engineer Mode).
For the band selection my only options are basically some manufacturer who didn’t bother to remove factory test tools (rare) or a Linux phone (e.g. PostmarketOS).
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I found pre-installed (unremovable) malware on my phone, and ESET doesn't seem to be checking system apps... (Ulefone Armor 24)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
Yeah…
This time I specifically went with MediaTek to have access to band selection, but MediaTek is basically all of the nails in the coffin when it comes to custom ROMs.
Other option for this would be a closed-source app like NSG with root access (meh).
Or a full-fledged Linux phone so I could just use mmcli like a normal person. That seems to exist at least on PostamrketOS: wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Modem (unless it’s limited in function somehow). I did test it with DWM-222 modem.

MTK Engineer Mode usually gets removed, which isn’t surprising as it includes tools like TX-test (for both WiFi and cellular modem) and someone on XDA posted a screenshot of it having IMEI change option. Both of those are likely illegal (probably not for WiFi as that’s in license-free band).
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I found pre-installed (unremovable) malware on my phone, and ESET doesn't seem to be checking system apps... (Ulefone Armor 24)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
I didn’t say I consider either trustworthy/untrustworthy.
It’s just that I don’t trust the devices enough to keep working (or even do so well) to basically waive my warranty (by purchasing it from wherever they sell it).

Otherwise, it seems Unihertz has a better record (I didn’t find mentions of embedded malware) than Ulefone.

If I can buy it here, I have 14 days to return it. When I was choosing a phone, and employee of the store just told me to buy all of which I am interested in, test them, keep 1, return the rest. So I bought 3 phones and returned 2.
Not something I could do if importing a device.

No, sorry for the confusion, I was speaking about the Motorola. I can’t find anything for Ulefone.

I daily drive the Armor 24 which is just a bit thinner. I am a man, so it does fit into most of my pockets (I hear women’s clothing has chronic lack of pockets).

I am just that tiny bit of market who likes very unusual things. Unihertz also has some Blackberry-style phones (Titan series), but they don’t sell around here, and it’s not a brand trustworthy enough for me to import it with basically no warranty.
By the way, Unihertz seems to fund new models via Kickstarter, which I find a bit funny.
