Gives a surprisingly good Bedrock experience on Linux and macOS. Just needs you to own the game on the Google Play Store.

Yeah, I recently started trying their “network pass” and was quite happy that I got coverage (unlike my current carrier.) Tried creating an account to go with it, now I’m locked out for whatever reason, and my username is “null”.

I guess I’ll just use the eSIM they gave me until they cut off my access.

Moral of the story: ~~T-Mobile~~ mobile carriers suck

It’s likely many users still use Automator (which is from 2005). Removing it could break workflows for many people if removed. There’s a bunch of older apps in macOS like this. The latest version of macOS still has AirPort Utility, for example.

Actually, using a Mac with coconutBattery plugged into an iOS device allows you to see the date the battery was manufactured and the cycle count. I imagine there might be other software to pull this information off an iPhone.

This then raises the question why Apple couldn’t show this information within iOS on older models. It obviously has access to this battery information.

Going a little off-topic, how old is your battery?

I’m sitting at 80% battery health on my 13 Pro, and the battery life definitely reflects that.

This is common with these Linux on Android-based phones. I believe Ubuntu Touch requires you to downgrade to Android 9 in most cases.

Great. Time to update Nginx on my vacuum.

Sounds like something a boomer would say.

This is my complaint as well. KDE certainly has advantages and neat design ideas, but I always come across some major bugs that make my device unusable.

Definitely not saying GNOME doesn’t have bugs as well though.

Rust is a memory-safe language. So in this case, it could result in more stable software.

Just tried it. All it did was remind me that my laptop is defective and nobody can do anything about it.

Why can’t we replace the logic board/Touch ID sensor separately without losing functionality?

No, custom desktop environments and window managers can’t be used. What you’re referring to are applications which simply modify window geometry automatically, which emulates a tiling window manager.
