It is working fine (a bit annoyed because there is no way of finding a new battery for replacement), but I was thinking of switching to something more open source and with Linux officially supported....

I often switch between phones and speakers, but I’m too lazy to do it through the sound preferences window. So I came up with this script*, and I’m sharing it here as others might find it useful....

Ubuntu is great but uses snaps and adds other canonical bits. Linux Mint is essentially perfect but does not come with gnome desktop. Is there a ubuntu based distro that is essentially like linux mint but offers gnome as a desktop?

Heya, I’m currently using my old tv as a monitor and the problem is that it seems to have overscan and I can’t go into the tv menu to change it. Do you know of any desktop environments that allow you to resize the window height and width? I’ve tried KDE with kdoctor and xrandr settings but all it did to me was changing hiw...

Despite being a heavy cell phone user for more than 25 years, it only recently occurred to me that vertical navigation on most phones is inverted when compared to traditional computers. You swipe down to navigate upward, and up to navigate downward. I recently spent time using a MacBook, which apparently defaults to this...
