Made a complaint to the California Dept of Consumer Affairs. I used the way back machine to show at the I purchased the phone, their policy was “full refund, no questions asked” which they silently changed a few years later and then hide behind as an excuse to deny refunds. Turns out that’s illegal.
A shady company that I had to fight tooth and nail to get my money back after literal years of false promises and moving goal posts. They’ve burned any respected reputation they had.
Better late than never I guess?
Yeh. The Librem was a classic example of overpromise and underdeliver. Borderline scamware by Purism. Will never go near them again.
Wayland is not ready yet. I’ll wait till its done before jumping over.
Hilarious. I thought njalla got shutdown a few months back. Looks like they are back up and running. Any story on what happened?
This exactly. This is the audience for proton mail, and their success while sticking to this model is hope for us all
Anything that helps bookwyrm grow its knowledge library of books (missing a LOT of books that goodreads has) is a good idea. I fear however that combining anything which points people to where to pirate the book might not help the popularity/reputation of bookwyrm as a good OS alt to goodreads.
Is there a place to browse options? A lemmy community you recommend perhaps?
Would love to just pay someone to access their jellyfin server. Does something like this exist?
Is that true? I didn’t realise this.
Google Linux Mint. Install. Enjoy having your computer back again.
I think something like simplelogin is too complicated for a basic user.
I suggest setting her up with two or three different new email addresses. One for important things like gov accounts, utilities accounts, and personal emails to friends, and the other for her to use to sign up to stupid data-harvesting crap like newsletters, stores, etc.
It would probably be helpful to do a little behavioural training too around not signing up for things that require your contact details like email or phone.
What? It didn’t get voted down, it literally passed and is law under the Telco Act. The fact we passed it gave the UK ammunition to do the same thing.
Purism is dead in the water following the atrocious Librem 5 fiascos.
Never once had a driver issue on Mint. Literally did an entire rebuild (mobo, cpu, gpu, the works). Switched it on, everything worked perfectly, no OS reinstall or driver hunting.
Any issues I’ve heard about, the main culprit is nvidia cause of proprietary crap. Move to AMD graphics and it’s literally plug and play.
Nah, the cans are so old, this is just his stuff before he got his PhD
See “gross debt this year” and “last year”. We had surplus so it has been put toward paying down the principle
Maybe relevant 10 years ago, but not anymore. Hell, most games run better with Proton now, no background telemetry crap.
Unfortunately, his right foot might need a star
