Linux is pretty forgiving. You don't even need to use dd, if you know what you are doing you can create a totally new partitioning format and just copy the files. Since getting the fstab just right in that case is more error prone, just using dd is simpler. If using dd, don't worry, you can resize partition afterwards.

Look: it's a hat

So then open source drivers and firmware should be mandatory. It's insane that this fully working phone isn't usable any longer just because the manufacturer wants to sell new stuff. They should at least open source the drivers or firmware if they stop supporting it. What a humongous waste of resources.

I know this is the same for all devices. Microsoft is killing old PCs without TPM to push Windows 11. You can still use linux on those devices though, android seems to be way more short lived.

Damn, this phone looks and works as good as new. Sucks that it can't be updated any longer. I hate it so fucking much that they (google) managed to make the hardware closed source enough, so that we can't keep it running after the manufacturer dropped support. Anyway, i know that's not your fault.

Thanks for the reply and thanks for all the work to make android a little bit safer for all of us.

No, for fucks sake: I have no idea how Linux works and expect to be proficient after I installed ubuntu once. Must be Linux that is bad if my apt repositories don't work on arch. Fuck it, I'll go back to windows

Pixel 4a (5G), Pixel 5 and Pixel 5a are end-of-life and shouldn't be used anymore due to lack of security patches for firmware and drivers. We provide extended support for harm reduction.

So do I get this update because they are providing extended support or won't I get android 15 based graphene os on my Pixel 5?

Google is developing official support for running Debian Linux on Android devices through a new Terminal app using AVF.

Fuck off

The cycling part

Die Versicherung ist in der Beweispflicht. Problem bei mir war, dass das Schloss noch abgeschlossen da hing, was vermuten lässt, ich hätte das Schloss versehentlich nur über den Sattel gehangen. Da es Zeugen gab, hatte die Versicherung aber keine Wahl, als zu bezahlen.

Wenn das Schloss aufgebrochen wurde, ist das denke ich weniger ein Problem. Polizei hatte ich direkt eingeschaltet, als der Diebstahl bemerkt wurde.

Ob du ein neues Fahrrad kaufst und über die gleiche Versicherung weiter laufen lässt, oder dir das Geld ausbezahlen lässt, ist die überlassen.

Hab mir vor einiger Zeit ein e-Bike geholt und bei der Ammerländer Versicherung das rundum sorglos Paket für 13€ im Monat abgeschlossen. Nach zwei Wochen wurde mir das Bike auch direkt gestohlen. Die Versicherung hat mir erst unterstellt ich hätte es nicht richtig abgeschlossen, hat dann auf meinen Widerspruch hin direkt bezahlt. 5.000€

Wichtig ist, dass du dich an die Vorgaben bezüglich Schloss und Abstellort hältst, das kann sonst schnell dazu führen, dass du auf den Kosten hängen bleibst.

Ansonsten ist das aber eine super Sache und relativ erschwingliche Möglichkeit, um sich abzusichern.

"Allowed and supported" is something different then "its possible". The article mentions some points that seemingly haven't been "supported" in the past:

• Stop requiring Google Play Billing for apps distributed on the Google Play Store (the jury found that Google had illegally tied its payment system to its app store)
• Let Android developers tell users about other ways to pay from within the Play Store
• Let Android developers link to ways to download their apps outside of the Play Store
• Let Android developers set their own prices for apps irrespective of Play Billing

Google also can’t:

• Share app revenue “with any person or entity that distributes Android apps” or plans to launch an app store or app platform
• Offer developers money or perks to launch their apps on the Play Store exclusively or first
• Offer developers money or perks not to launch their apps on rival stores
• Offer device makers or carriers money or perks to preinstall the Play Store
• Offer device makers or carriers money or perks not to preinstall rival stores

Thanks Mr. Epic Judge

Wenn die Politik nicht gut genug verkauft wird, endet das darin, dass manche Leute denken diese sei Scheisse. Widerlegt hast du mit deiner Aussage gar nix, eher noch bestätigt.

Aber da du ja so gut im Thema bist, werd' doch mal konkret. Was genau findest du denn so "schlecht"?

Mate, you have zero experience how to drive but feel the need to tell others what is save and what not?

Can people please shut up talking about topics they know nothing about?!

It definitely gets easier after muscle memory kicks in. Doesn't really make a difference if manual or automatic.

Surpisingly deep story while also having a good base game. If you liked the atmosphere of buckshot roulette you will love this one.

Wait, how did you take that picture? winkwink

That was my first linux distro I tried, took 12 minutes to boot on my Pentium 75 with 8mb RAM. Still better then win98 though

to see it smash

I'm not really sure why I expected here but I was satisfied anyway

Give it two more years and brave will stop backporting manifestv2, then you have even less options to avoid google deciding which content needs to be shoved in your face.

I'm using Firefox since forever. In the past I have checked a few times if a swap to chromium is worth it. It never was.

I really don't understand people that prefer Google over Mozilla. Firefox works like a charm and Google already knows enough about us IMHO.

My tipp: don't try to analyze and think to much about yourself. It's like thinking about the way you walk and suddenly walking feels strange and forced. You can't change who you are, don't even try it.

Instead try to focus on her, everyone loves a good, active listener. You are there to get to know her anyway, aren't you?

One thing you should take to your heart. Finding a good match isn't an easy task, don't go on a date expecting her to be the one. Eventually you will get disappointed or rejected, that is totally normal and nothing to worry about. It just means you and her weren't a good fit.

And don't try to act in a way thats untypical for you just to impress her. You want her to get to know the real you, not the impression of someone you think she would like.

Think about it like a casual date without any expectations is the best you can do

I think they are saying that in their revised universe there would be an absolute humanity spanning moral code.

I think what we have is something much better. A flexible morality which is taught from generation to generation and adapted as needed. An absolut moral code wouldn't work.

Funny enough, that's exactly the way it actually is. And I believe this system still works; not that we could change it anyway.

And the things that that moral code decide are bad are bad always for everyone regardless.

Still, this is how it is. It discourages immoral actions even when nobody sees them happening, because the person doing them still knows and feels bad/shame/worries.
