I’m looking for a solid smartphone with a high-capacity battery. I don’t care about performances: as long as Spotify Qobuz, Google Maps, Firefox and Lichess work seaminglessly, I don’t care about running video games with demanding-graphics.

We have received numerous reports from users about the closure of the c/android community. While we fully support the original community owners’ decision to move to another instance, it will eventually be necessary to open up the community on Lemmy.world.

Hey! I appreciate any comments, I would like to encrypt my data using SSD native on disk encryption, change the key to a “dummy” key leaving the data hidden at rest, then later swap in the “correct” key and begin using the data again. I have taken a look at sedutil-cli and nvme-cli but I can’t see a way to change the...
