While you can setup a second profile to put the Google services into, I don’t recommend it.

The version of Google Services on GrapheneOS thinks it has root, but it does not.

So there’s no dramatic need to setup a second profile, unless you want it for other reasons.

I personally think the second profile feature is one of the things people think they want/need from GrapheneOS, but really are happier without.

(Sure it’s safer, but GrapheneOS is already so much better than other mobile OSes - and I hate to see someone quit GrapheneOS just because they didn’t like the optional profiles.)

An exception I have seen is for apps mandated for a job. I’m happy to bury that stuff deep.

That amused me, too.

I think it plays fine for the intended audience, though.

For the folks looking into Anubis, that line plays well - because hosting costs are driven up by the kinds of spam bot visits that Anubis slows down.

The rule of cool helps with honesty too.

My team knew well in advance that we would be short-staffed on the day the Switch 2 released.

a) I would not be driving a car with my child in it if I was so tired that I would forget I had a child. The fuck?

I hope you’re thankful for a lifestyle where you have that option. We should all strive to build a world where everyone does.

I’m sorry you went through that. I’m glad you got your trapper keeper, though. Your mom made the right call.

I felt the same, until I had my first lousy sleeper (child who had trouble sleeping due to minor health stuff). After a month of lost sleep, I couldn’t remember my own name sometimes. I read once that sleep deprivation is effectively brain damage, and after that experience, I believe it.

The left shoe trick - throwing my shoe in the car next to the kid - probably saved my kid’s life more than once.

One kind of parents who have these tragedies are tired ones. Which is most parents with small children.

Edit: not relevant in this case, but I’ll take any chance to advertise the shoe trick.

It still is, it’s a standard for imaging devices.

Oh, thank you. I had forgotten that!

And also a nightmare.

Yes. Now that the memories are coming back, I do notice most of them aren’t very nice…

It’s an acronym: T.W.A.I.N. (edit: a backconym, as was pointed out - I’ve also heard that the weird upper case name came first, and the weirder acronym was added later.)

“Technology without an interesting name.”

And… That’s all I remember about it, at the moment.

Well, also that it broke often, and threw weird errors like the one pictured.

Or do I just have a really weak electric stove?

I think you might just have a really weak one, or poor compatibility pots? I’ve had both, and if anything my gas burners feel a little slower and cooler than my induction stove did.

Tablet pornography must be nice.

That seems like someone who made a plan, and then lived out their best evening.

I imagine those tablet Pornhub users probably prepared themselves a nice mixed drink, set out some snacks, and got all cozy in a bathrobe first.

Tablet pornhub sounds like some kind of intentional self care.

Haha!

But uh…I would watch that. That sounds pretty hot.

Sorry. We need to learn to ask nicely.

Please upgrade to Linux?

sudo upgrade to Linux?

RunAs -Admin upgrade to Linux?

Does anyone have any clue?

My best guess would be some relatively passive notification stealing focus.

As reddeadhead mentioned, there’s specific “don’t steal focus” settings. I’ve had good luck with them.

I used to always use Minecraft for this. Sure, they can’t do everything immediately, but I put the game on peaceful and let them explore at their own pace.

I say “used to” because Luanti (formerly MineTest, an open source Minecraft Clone*) is finished and free.

(Okay, Luanti is a lot more than a Minecraft clone. But for this discussion that’s all one needs to know.)

Nice. Minecraft used to be my go to answer for a first WASD game, too.

Lately, I recommend Mineclonia on Luanti, because it’s free and has stronger optimizations supporting weak laptops and big multiplayer servers. (It’s a popular Free Open Source Minecraft Clone).

I bought a “fixer-upper” recently, so I fill most days off with minor home repair projects. I’m using it as an excuse to build a decent little project workbench, though.

I’m with you.

Thankfully, corporate bullahit isn’t the only way to create a discovery algorithm.

I expect that we will have a diverse set of discovery algorithms available to opt into here, in a few years.

Thank you! You’re doing Lliira’s work!

Nothing anotger fireball won’t solve…
