that’s good then! i had this same issue (randomly freezing after turning it om for some time) though new RAM ended up fixing it

yeah with what other people have said it’s most likely bad or unseated RAM

yeah, my bad. edited the comment with more accurate info

and this does apply to creative writing, not knowledgeable stuff like coding

in terms of the quality of writing you can get models from 20GB at a similar level to GPT-4 (good for creative writing but much worse if knowledge of something is required)

the model I use (~20GB) would know what rclone is but would most likely not know how to use it

EDIT: now that I think about it is was based off of some benchmark. personally I wouldn’t say it performs at GPT-4 but maybe GPT-3.5

ah, okay, that’s fair. in terms of short-form social media that tries to engage you, I’d expect little warning and for children especially to take more risks when encountering this type of content.

Folks with rooted android phones have a high chance of having watched a 12 year old tell them how to root their phone on TicTok.

I was more focused on this, though, because this sentence implied that you could successfully root your phone with short-form, likely phone-generic tutorials when the process nowadays is much more difficult and technical

see my reply to @pacoboyd@lemm.ee

maybe it’s just me, but isn’t it quite hard (at least for people not confident doing technical stuff) to root a phone?

like a decade ago the bootloader may have been unlocked by default and for many phones there were exploits so that they could be rooted with an app, but nowadays you would have to:

• unlock the bootloader by installing ADB and fastboot drivers, booting into download mode and run terminal commands that would reset your phone in the process; and for some phones, you would also need to shorten a test point and for quite a few of them nowadays, unlocking the bootloader is impossible
• boot into download mode and flash a custom recovery with fastboot or potentially with Odin or some other proprietary software (or sometimes you can root from download mode)
  • for some newer (including Samsung) phones, you also need to disable dm-verity otherwise your phone wouldn’t be able to boot into Android
• boot into recovery mode and finally flash (probably Magisk) an image to root the system

I guess there are usually detailed instructions for this, but I doubt that most people rooting their phones now would be non-techie people who are just watching generic online tutorials. they would most likely stumble upon XDA or other forums that would have proper instructions. and even then, they are not very beginners friendly as they aren’t usually supposed to be followed by people with little to no experience with using the command-line, drivers, how Android phones work internally, etc.

qt as well

to clarify:

The developers of the Alpine Linux-based postmarketOS mobile distribution today that they’re now supporting the systemd init system alongside OpenRC and other alternative init systems.

and:

postmarketOS currently supports the Sxmo, Phosh, GNOME Shell on Mobile, and KDE Plasma Mobile UIs. While the Sxmo images will stay with OpenRC, the GNOME and KDE Plasma Mobile images will be built on top of systemd

can second this, they look kinda strange to me

true, all my large packages use ccache

haven’t compiled it in like months bc it keeps erroring out lol

please tell me you use ccache tho

oh wow another colemak-dh user

but I’d avoid converting until you’re able to touch-type. then you can show off to everyone w/ your weird-looking keyboard layout lol

you could use Termux::API to get stats (battery percentage, notifications, calls, some other stuff) of your phone from your PC.

this video gives good examples
