Should be opt-in, it’s a dumb feature nobody asked for.

If you already have a virtualization host can just use a VM as well.

Slowly? This crap has been going on for years.

I did for a while but stopped because it’s a massive pain and far easier to just use proton or something.

Same here. Not sure why but being told all my domains were being sold to squarespace really pushed me over as well.

Geez downvoted for an opinion.

Sony has good hardware but it does come with Facebook, OneDrive, LinkedIn, Call of Duty, and a few more. It absolutely has bloatware.

both google and Sony provide firmware blobs publicly, not sure about others.

Sounds like route tables are finding a priority match on the 1gb interface. Are you 100% sure the NAS connection is truly not an overlapping subnet with the 1gb nic?

Every device requires a maintainer, someone who builds Lineage specifically for that device.

On top of that most of these OEMs don’t provide device firmware drivers publicly (camera, modem, speakers, etc), so the maintainer has to either use a generic driver (which typically sucks), or reverse engineer something more suitable.

It’s just a time and effort thing. As with all open source projects it relies on the community to volunteer their time for the benefit of others.

I’d say this, companies deploying new windows server installs aren’t long for this world.

Even banks and insurance companies are pushing to containerization, Linux, and the cloud.

Hangouts was already the iMessage competitor. Video, voice, high res photos and videos, etc with SMS fallback. But as usual google kills every good product they create.

For real, if google didn’t completely screw up messaging every single year it wouldn’t be as big of a deal.

FYI downloads are good for 30 days, not 3.

Battery issues and overheating from the Tensor SoC, which we all know is based on the Exynos (which Samsung stopped using because it was so bad).

On the price:

Top spec models -

Samsung S23 Ultra 1 TB is $1619

iPhone 14 Pro Max 1 TB is $1599

Normal models-

Samsung S23 128 is $799

iPhone 14 128 is $799

How is the iPhone more expensive? At worst it’s the same price, and you get more than double the years of software support.

Top class enh?

Must be why the forums and communities are full of people asking about battery drain, reception issues, and software update bugs.

Also what iPhone you buying that’s $1200? You do know samsung has several devices that are more expensive than even the top tier iPhone, right?

iOS is a majority share, but not by much.

My opinion here might upset some fanboys:

Android is in a sad state right now with only a few big OEMs pushing into the market, and the fragmentation is what’s killing it. The average person doesn’t care about customizing or having a micro SD slot, they just want to text and browse TikTok - so they choose a phone that’s simple and works without headache for years.

On the android side you have really only Samsung, Motorola, and sorta google. Motorola covers a lot of the budget android market, but it’s cheap disposable phones. Samsung covers the whole range, but then you buy into the bloatware and duplicate apps. Then you have google sitting in the corner eating glue, consistently releasing phones with hot SoCs, bad reception, and botched software updates.

For the average person the iPhone makes complete sense as Apple only releases a few phones a year, and for a while now every single one has been relatively issue-free. Customers feel confident that the newest iPhone will be a similar experience, copy all their data over in 5 minutes, and work well for years to come.

So really I wouldn’t say it’s a case of “profitability”, moreso lacking compelling feature to draw in new customers, while continuing to bleed customers to the iPhone because the average person doesn’t want to be bothered with complicated features that aren’t consistent across android OEMs. We’ve seen a lot of Android OEMs leave the US market because of these reasons.

My best advice would be to make sure you enable static port mapping on your NAT rules. That usually helps a lot of NAT traversal things like games.

And no, Nintendo doesn’t understand networking in the slightest and asking people to forward every single port is BS.

It just adds a static route so that if dynamic route tables change it doesn’t have to wait to re-learn the new routes to start pinging that IP again.

It won’t change your gateway routing for normal traffic.

I’d say the 865 was the last “good” Qualcomm chip before the 8 gen 1 broke everything. It can be found in the Galaxy S/Note 20 generation.

Pretty much any soc made by samsung is hot and slow. The return to TSMC with the 8+ gen 1 we saw the thermal improvements.

There’s a LOT of medication apps already available, seems like a lot of work to create one from scratch, no?
