    LLMs helped me with coding and debugging A LOT. I’d much rather use AI than have to try and parse stack exchange and a bunch of other web forums or developer documentation directly. AI is incredible when i get random errors and paste them in to say “fix this” and it does and tells me HOW and WHY it did what it did.






  • I haven’t needed to root a device in a while but its fairly straight forward.

    The first step is to unlock your bootloader, do this by enabling developer menu (click on rom version in system settings 6 times fast) and then select to disable the booloader lock. if you cant do that then you probably cant root the device.

    if you can get that far, the next step is to find a recovery for your device, youll want to boot it using fastboot and load the recovery image, that will allow you to flash SuperSU.

    If you need more specific instructions Id need more info on where you get stuck (I’m just going of memory with this reply) but I know windows has some drivers that you need to install for adb to work and there might be other nuances I’m not remembering off hand

    I’d also advise when searching for stuff like this, its better to avoid saying the device name unless you are limiting results to XDA or other well known android development sites.











  • I don’t really have a problem with the posts/articles you share in general but you must realize you post a pretty large volume in general compared to the average user (politcal or not), and most of them get down voted by a lot. I think its honest of to post it all from a single account, I don’t think you are a plant but there is an arguement to be made that you are pushing forward an agenda that is, just not what people here want. I’m not saying you ARE pushing an agenda, Im just saying I can see how it might appear that way to some. Similarly to how I don’t believe RFK or Jill Stein are literally russian operatives but I do see how Putin might benefit from their actions.

    I say i hope you dont get banned because its clear from all the down votes that a lot of people disagree with what you’re posting, not that I think you should be banned, but just online communities and moderators being how they are you never know. You seem genuine to me, but I’m probably in the minority on /c/politics


  • Okay so hear me out on this since you seem to care about third parties… I think if you legit have the objective of getting 3rd parties included long term you need to support ones that have down ballot options, the greens very rarely do but LIbertarians almost always have at least someone for governor or senate or at state levels, so while i don’t actually think Libertarians are the better option (Althought i’d rank them above Republicans), I think if you want to support the general idea of 3rd parties, the most pragmatic choice is to support libertarians. This WAS my strategy for elections I didnt care about till 2016 (i’m in a solid blue state which also plays in, I’d vote different if i wasnt).

    Maybe its because I’m older, or maybe its actually just the legitimate threat of fascism, but after Trump won his first term I switched to pretty much fully supporting democrats. I’ll probably still vote third party for future elections that i think don’t matter but I consider the people behind Trump too big of a risk at this point. I think defeating Trump would actually also help Third parties in a sort of way because if he wins everyone will fall in line behind him but if he loses there will likely be a pretty big rift among the right and some portion of them are going to move to the Libertarian party.

    While I’m probably more ideologically aligned with the platform of the green party, I dont think they have any realistic chance of making a positive difference. They seem to not really have great leadership or enough support to run down ballot candidates. It will be interesting to see if RFK or Cornell West do worse then Stein but I kind of doubt it

    Honestly though, with biden dropping out and walz getting picket for VP, I’m genuinely optimistic about the democratic ticket now, sure they arent perfect and they will need to be under constant pressure from the left to do the right things, but personally they’ve earned my vote at this point.

    Anyways, I hope you don’t get banned, I’m really curious to see what you post AFTER the election is over.



  • On Linux most distros do not actually ship chrome but chromium which is the open source version of chrome.

    It also comes down to how different groups define FOSS. GNU considers even helper programs (like a package manager or firmware installer) to be “bad” for the user because they “encourage” its use so they dont want them included in GNU approved distros like trisqul or guix . this leads to those “freedom respecting” distros not having things like basic WiFi drivers or support for any 3rd party drivers.

    To a less extreme degree but similar is a distro like debian, where there is a “non_free” repository available but users can choose not to enable it.

    And so GNU sees having the playstore as a bad thing because its gateway to installing other non free software. Its also safe to assume most gnu evangelists probably don’t care much for chromium either.
