Yes, with Xfce it’s pretty snappy, works really well. The E5490 is even better especially with a i7

I’m using Dell laptop, they are still supported even the 6 or 7 years old one, with new bios fixing CVE, etc and some of them were even sold with Linux at the time!

I bought a E5470 (core I5 6th gen) I love it, less than 200$, 8GB of ram, 14" 1080p IPS, 256GB SSD. Full repair manual available, etc.

I’m running MX Linux on it

Nope, Google Wallet does not run with unlocked bootloader or with root. There’s a lot of programs made to avoid this but setup can be broken anytime with a Google update. If you absolutely want to pay with your phone, it can be nightmarish to install all kind of add-ons to bypass failing CTS.

I completely don’t care about this 3rd edition… first and second one I placed pixel every 5 minutes, this one I just saw it because of this post and the result is pathetic

oh god it’s pathetic… I remember very well the first r/place, then the second one was super cool too! But this one, wow, super pathetic :-( shame on reddit…

Average is about 800k, in Montreal it’s about 700k, how can people, especially young people working at less than 20$/h and sometimes partial time, will do to buy a house? Even rental is out of control here. Buying a condo is even worst with monthly fees, 600$+/month is not uncommon, adding to mortgage, adding 400-500$/month for taxes.

People earn less than 2k/month and have to spent 1200-1500$ on rent.

Adding 500K-1M immigrants per year will brings workforce to build housing, but where will those people live? And housing price will go up anyway?

At one point the system will explode?

I remember the 1st one it was magic! Second one was ok but censorship and bots killed it

3rd one? I dunno I quit Reddit last month after 13 years…

Yeah incredible, this is like a 20yo quote!

Wow it looks like I haven’t used the playstore for a long time now… I guess I install app from a link in a web browser or github page or something, but searching and browsing the playstore I have not done in years.

If you want pure android, then a Pixel phone, but if you want to degoogle, no…

Else you can find very interesting powerful phone like PoCo F4 for instance and replace the ROM with the dozen ones available, check XDA.

Know that when you unlock bootloader/replace ROM, you will most likely lose the ability to pay with your phone, or play a cat and mouse game with magisk and addon and google Wallet.

I’d go with MX Linux for sure, this is a very nice distro, w/o systemd, based on Debian, and using Xfce so it’s pretty fast

Like everywhere… Montreal has hundreds of family in the street, but 13’000 empty condos on airbnb

It ended for me and SyncPro. I made my last post on Reddit, and deleted 13 years of comments and posts.

I only have 2. I joined Beehaw first and subscribed to a lot of communities, but when Beehaw defederated Lemmy.world I opened an account there to follow some local communities.

I don’t think I need more account as I can follow about whatever instances I want from beehaw

C’est normal qu’elle dise ça, à 31 ans elle a acheté sa maison cash 770’000$, elle l’a revendu 2.4 million. Elle vit dans un autre monde que nous, c’est une 1% qu’il faut manger :)

IKEA c’est 50$, et ZigBee

Il était pas mal stable, c’est le senseur de IKEA il est peut être pas super calibré mais c’était 300+ partout. C’était ce matin. Là c’est 570+ à 13h

While we are all here, enjoying memes :)

Haha heureusement je suis Français alors je le garde 😅😉

Pretty cool 😎👍🏻
