Not an expert but: tldr don’t.

Battery calibration is supposed to help the battery’s firmware figure out how low the battery can go. It also tends to hurt your battery, so you should avoid performing these calibrations and keep the charge between 20% and 80% as much as you can.

It seems what you’re trying to do is improve battery estimation by the OS on a new machine. And in that case, Is just trey trip love* I’d just try to live with possible insecurity of not knowing whether the machine has 15 or 25 minutes left.

It’s not such a binary thing. For example, you can obtain some, hodl for a bit, and later return them for a profit. It’s basically like the stock market, except people refer to the money you get as a “ransom” rather than a “profit” for some reason. What many people outside the industry don’t know is that it doesn’t officially become a crime until police get involved. So just insist on “No police!” in your sales calls. /s

No

Seriously. I puked the first few times when I wasn’t used to alcohol at all. I also puked once when I drank way too much which is something I never repeated. Beyond that, I didn’t puke much.

I guess professional kitchens are often an abusive environment in general where one kind of abuse begets another. But that’s still not a obligatory part of the job.

The original version of Java was proprietary. Sun later open-sourced large parts of it but they kept selling a version of Java with a proprietary license. There were also random kerfuffles over the years with IBM and Red Hat who wanted to sell open-source Java into large organizations without giving a cut to Sun/Oracle.

Oracle Java uses a license called “GPL with Classpath Exception”, so it’s definitely possible to create derivatives of the GPL and name them appropriately.

I never bothered with banking apps. (Outside of the virtual debit card app from my bank. That one did install successfully. However, I never got try out in store because it deleted my virtual card after a few days and I didn’t care enough to set it up again.)

I use Calyx on a Fairphone 4. It’s not totally degooglified, since it comes with MicroG which is used to connect to Google services. I use Aurora Store and a couple of original Google Apps like Gboard too (none of my Google apps can access the internet, since they’re behind the built-in firewall). It works well except call functionality which can be wonky and there’s the issue that a lot of apps from Play don’t work well with MicroG. I only use a small selection of Play apps though, so it doesn’t bother me too much.

A mimosa is excellent for this purpose. And it’s pretty too.

Sixpack of beer? (Optionally alcohol-free, if his bad behavior is related to alcohol abuse.)

X11 is not made with security in mind. At the point where you disable Wayland, you can basically use native apps rather than flatpaked apps.

German for “like father, like son” is “the apple doesn’t fall far off the tree trunk”. But many people nowadays use “the apple doesn’t fall far off the pear tree”, which is a variant that I think originally was supposed to suggest illegitimate fatherhood.

Sure.

Some companies have switched to Fluorine-free waterproofing chemicals (e.g. Deuter for backpacks). Iirc, there’s even a Fluorine-free version of Goretex nowadays. I haven’t really looked into whether these materials are this much better though.

This appears to be the calculator: https://www.websitecarbon.com/

And it only appears to check the size of downloaded assets and then whether the hosting provider is known to use renewables. Indeed not terribly exhaustive or useful.

Have you looked at Xiaomi’s own offerings?—they do have “compact” power banks. Not sure if those are compact enough for you though.

That’s three different things:

• Joyn - paid private streaming platform (probably geo-restricted as well)
• Mediathekview - inofficial search engine for ARD/ZDF/Arte/SRF/ORF streaming platforms (free, but geo-restricted)
• ARD-Mediathek - ARD streaming platform (free, geo-restricted)

I am not sure I would necessarily call them a “good company” either.

If we’re being honest, the phone project was a delusion from the start—the company is simply way too small to build a phone from components that were never meant to be in phones and have it actually work properly. At this point, can you finally even use the phone to call people via 2G/4G? Have they gotten beyond the sub-24h standby battery life? Have they got the bandwidth to handle the security reviews of the kill switches in their phones?

In the plus side, I appreciate that they invested in implementing adaptive layouts in Gnome. But the Linux space is littered with unsuccessful startups who all left their pawprints in code. Usually then allowing Red Hat and other big players (or, in the desktop space: a community) to build upon that code.
