Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux

    There's Windows 10 LTSC, which gets security updates til 2027. And IoT Enterprise LTSC, which gets security updates until 2032.

    "But should you even use those versions?!? They are not meant to be installed on a desktop PC/laptop" - idk, it's either this or Win11.

    For more info on how to install, check https://massgrave.dev/windows_ltsc_links

    In a perfect world, every dollar we spend goes right to the creators who made the creation.

    In a perfect world, shit's created without someone having to create it to make money. A market without middlemen is still a market.

    I would consider even LLMs actual AI. Even bots in video games are called AIs, no? But I agree that people are vastly overestimating their capabilities and I hate the entrepreneurial bullshitting as much as everyone else.

    Machine learning! That was the better term.

    The obvious easy solution would be to teach LLMs to guide the user through their "thinking process" or however you may call it. Instead of answering outright. This is what people do too, right? They look at what they thought and/or wrote. Or they would say "let's test this". Like good teachers do. Problem is, that would require some sort of intelligence, which artificial intelligence ironically doesn't possess.

    I wrote about battery drain in response to another user who had issues on Graphene, even though this is a general Pixel issue, and has nothing to do with Graphene. The modem chews through the battery if you don't have good connectivity, although I'm not sure if that's still a big problem with the 7's and 8s. It definitely is with the 6.

    Personally, I had problems with adapting to the "don't try to be a power user" philosophy of Graphene. I was used to flashing ROMs, rooting and customizing the hell out of my previous smartphones. Then I suddenly had a device which just... worked. It's still an odd feeling, but I got used to it.

    Just wanted to add to the other users unique experiences. From the perspective of someone who was a "the only good phone is a phone which is one small mishap away from being bricked" kinda guy

  • Hi and hello. It seems with one of the recent updates, audio quality defaults to either 32kbps or 48kbps m4a when I use mobile data. On WiFi it's always 128 kbps. I didn't find anything in the settings to combat this behavior, and it happens on my new Pixel as well as on my old Xiaomi. I use Newpipe primarily as a music streaming app, so this, ehm, it sucks pretty bad. Did I miss a setting or should I open an issue on github? edit: I just opened an issue on github, hopefully this gets resolved. edit 2: This apparently has been an issue for quite some time, it's not a bug though. Setting "Settings" > "Video and Audio" > "Limit resolution when using mobile data" to "No limit" resolved it, but it's not mentioned anywhere that this setting also affects the audio quality. https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/issues/8148
