It can be done with adb:

You can if you use adb shell:

Developer Options > USB debugging turned on CMD prompt > adb devices Allow connection from the PC prompt on phone

Then add shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.sec.android.gallery3d

This will remove Gallery, BUT… The stock camera will not allow you to view the pic after you take it (it will show up in Google Photos still)

To restore the above removed app:

cmd package install-existing com.sec.android.gallery3d

I got some JVC earbuds and they work with just Bluetooth. Pretty good noise canceling as well.

I had a pair of wired earbuds from JVC for years and they were so good that I kept buying them when they broke and always have one in my backpack.

So what is your suggested platform?

What’s with all the hate on Signal on here? I see probably one post a week trying to bash it because of some unproven conspiracy about it.

It’s a non-profit whose goal is to provide encrypted private chat.

Signal’s subpar user experience is a feature from this perspective.

Signal is literally just a chat service. The user experience is on par with any other service, except it’s backed by a trust in the company to not sell out on the end user because it’s a non-profit and isn’t beholden to any shareholders.

Yeah I bet you could do this with a couple SBCs

Edit: and speakers, ofc

I like Backblaze mostly for their business practices. The Backblaze devs answer questions on forums sometimes (Reddit link btw). The costs are pretty good, but there are cheaper options. $6/TB plus some API transactions. I paid almost a dollar last month for a couple hundred GB of data and transactions.

Plus their drive failure publications are awesome.

Why all the emojis? Why can’t people just write an article?

Nobody has to throw a tantrum, lol. I refused to join Viber at my work after they requested.

I said “Sorry, I don’t do group chats like that,” and that was the end.

What happens if you refuse? Are they paying for your phone bill?

I played about a dozen games and most of them worked great through steam.

Arma is gold rated on protondb.

What I don’t understand is why everyone talks about how easy Linux gaming is when it’s clearly not as simple a process as Windows.

I see this type of comment all the time on here. I tried switching over completely a week ago and had nothing but problems.

I went with Kubuntu after hearing success stories of gaming on Ubuntu and the great GUI of KDE. R5 5600X and 3080 Ti.

Framerate on Arma 3 was abysmal. It’s mostly CPU locked so NVIDIA drivers aren’t as critical. Max 30 FPS in a location I’d usually get 75+.

Lutris was unable to install the blizzard launcher. It was giving me an error about using a 64 bit version of WINE instead of 32 despite Lutris pulling the dependencies. I manually installed the supposed packages and had no option to manually select them in the installation process. Lutris automatically selected the wrong one and I gave up after that - about an hour of trying to install it.

Gaming on Linux is nowhere near ready for most people. There’s just too much troubleshooting and frustration.

AirVPN is good so far
