nothing haha just left the bad 16gb stick in there because it mostly works. It’s hard to diagnose it as I use it for work 24/7… mayb I need another Thinkpad for when I diagnose the other

good to know

haha used is an understatement. was in a gaming laptop running frigate at like 90 degrees for 3 years. the other stick is a crucial 2666 16gb I have from same laptop. I’m too lazy to run memtest when I know there’s an issue. going to try slower speed and do the testing

yea it’s a 16gb but yea I agree. although it was in my server for 3 years(laptop that cooked itself)! Going to run memtest here in a minute and will post my findings on all sticks I have around once I’m done with work

ubuntu fresh 24.04 install. also it’s still usable as is but crashes before I hit 24gb usage

will try with a different brand and speed and runs tests thank you!

haha not only do I use IDEs, docker, etc I also use the computer for computer things at the same time! Like music, browser tabs, and thunderbird eat 3gb ish and gnome alone is about 3

neither had I and I got such a good deal I did not dig into that much before I purchased. I have been through the ringer with laptops the last couple years and dumped so much into new ones that break and the parts are too expensive that I gave up and just go based upon price not specs. would love to have a dedicated desktop but I have to work on the go all the time

I will try this as well, I have 2 16gb sticks kicking around the 3200 team group and a crucial 2666.

yes 8gb soldered. with a slot for a stick alongside the soldered shit. look I don’t come up with this stuff but I got the laptop for 200 bucks on Facebook and it plays well with ubuntu

gotcha it is a team group one(I was skeptical too) I have another 16gb that is crucial I think but it’s 2666 speed. Will try memtest tonight and report back.

Well your not wrong a lot of privacy developers get more years than pedos

The way I understand it is the bootloader is built in security on the soc itself similar to tpm? In some regards phones are safer than computers in this way. If you leave your laptop out someone can tamper with the os, same with an unlocked bootloader. Safe from governments you shouldn’t use a phone if that’s your worry.

I don’t even have a lock on my phone

Well it says next year. And a lot could happen between then and now. Some comments think they will run into anti trust issues trying this.

Wow thanks for posting this. I read the whole thing but what I’m not getting is the fact that their started concern is apks “side loaded”. This is aimed directly at the foss community as normal people already won’t I stall anything outside of the play store. No non tech enthusiasts go straight to git hub …

Well I think we are such a small percentage of users that care that it probably does not matter in the grand scheme. I just got on android in 24’ when rcs started working because my large family network was always worried they would lose communication with me. Because you know the little green text bubble things don’t get pictures and stuff from non iOS… People have no clue and don’t care as long as the phone works to swipe on sorry videos

I don’t have a solution. They also messed up my alarm I heavily rely on. I’m not sure why they get off on messing with stuff. Call also lags when swiped now. Pixel 8 here

Thanks for the explanation. So essentially custom roms with Google play services removed will actually be needed to download to he good apps like new pipe and the like

Makes sense. Is Google play store just apk files as well? I thought there was some other special sauce with it as well besides just running spyware in the background. This all sounds like a good way to get full names for YouTube add less app makers…

I’m not really understanding. I buy a phone. Peter codes and app with foss tools and emails it to me. No copyright or anything bad like a to do app. I want to use said app on my purchased phone. Now Peter will have to show his license and stuff? I guess developers are criminals.
