It's taken out Ecosia as well.

Using https://searcxng.online/ instead for now.

Such colourful days :)

Asus F555D - 12G RAM, AMD R8 M350DX GPU and a sticker that says Radeon Dual Graphics. That's probably what was tripping up the system booting to a black screen.

So I'm guessing they grabbed the %appdata% for Chrome and were able to get the passwords out of that?

Not Sandisk. Had several just die with no recovery possible.
Kingston had a few failures but probably OK as a cheap one.
Only had one Samsung crash, so mostly sell those despite the premium these days.

Baah. KBIN just ate my reply.

Point form since I forgot to save to clipboard first.

Tried mint - booted to black screen
Tried ubuntu - got silly crashes like in the post trying to install stuff. It also wanted me to sign up for some sort of support package with 5 free devices to get updates or something. Also, trackpad scrolling was uncontrollable. Would scroll up half a screen or more as I lifted my fingers off.
Tried fedora - only 100% and 200% zoom option, and no right click.

Managed to fix the fedora issues with some command line found on Google and a gnome customising addon.

n00b here, just playing. Can't migrate fully as I need VBA and Playit Live etc.

Did you De-qualcomm it too, or not affected?

[–] I_Miss_Daniel@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

No luck with PlayIt Live.

Recently bought a g84 - it has SD card or Dual Sim capability, along with a headphone jack and stereo speakers. For a $AU350 device it's pretty good - only thing I miss is a telephoto lens.

Magnifying Glass + Ant = unhappy ant.
Eyeball + Sun = Magnifying Glass + Ant
= unhappy ant.

Sun to the power of ant = magnifying glass.
Ant to the power of sun = unhappy ant.
Error: Used ant twice.

Now I'm a bit sad. A part of my childhood has died. bash.org.

I know there was one where someone was typing on IRC while driving his truck, and ends his quote with "fuck just rear ended a lady" but no way to find that quote directly now.

That was years ago, before smart phones I think.

Yep. It's nice to know you're in control of it. Not like bloody AnyDesk which decided one day out of the blue to remove the TCP Tunneling feature I was using.
