They really shot themselves in the foot by going straight to phones.
The better way would have been to work on tablets first and working out all the bugs on larger devices with a limited feature set before moving into phones with the attendant issues of regional cell bands and restrictions.
Rather than play the “will this product work on Linux” game I bought an enclosure and made my own. I got an Orico enclosure and put a large HDD into it.
Most enclosures are OS agnostic (but check anyway) and you can put quite large drives in them.
I wouldn’t consider it a backup solution, I use Timeshift for that.
It’s more of a file syncing software like Syncthing.
I have it set up to one way sync certain folders on my computer to an external USB HDD that I can disconnect and take with me if I have to evacuate.
Have you had a look at “Lucky Backup”?
Logitech does not support Linux.
Most of the current compatibility of Logitech devices comes from, Linux devs reverse engineering their software, USB standards or from default programing stored in the device.
Have you considered that they may have used a 32bit UEFI bios combined with 64bit processor?
Try a distro that supports 32bit UEFI.
About 25 years for me.
For most people it’s a better option to use a local print shop for the odd times that they need something printed.
More options for printing too.
Twitch already has a dark mode available in the settings.
I think that this would be a security nightmare and would require a massive redesign for session cookies.
If anything they should be trying to lock cookies and sites assorted data to the specific device used to log in.
At the moment it is very easy for a criminal (once they have gained access) to nab your browser’s entire profile and load it up on their computer giving them access to everything logged in on that profile.
What you are suggesting is something that would make the criminals jobs easier .
From the what I have read it seems like this is a Gnome error causing problems for software.
You might be able to get better feedback if you post in one of the Linux specific communities.
If you try to open FF using the terminal does it give you any error messages?
You can set a custom URL for your homepage and there is a “homepage” button you can add to your toolbar.
It would be nice to have a button that you can set to open a URL of your choice.
Well that sucks.
I wouldn’t have even been doing that if I could add custom “home” buttons to the toolbar.
Have you tried running the laptop down until it shuts off then charging it?
Install RockBox onto it and continue using it as a music player.
Edit: apparently this is a device that can’t use RockBox.
It’s not so much both computers being able to access it.
From what I have experienced Timeshift tends to lock a drive when it is doing a backup.
If computer 1 is doing a backup and computer 2 tries to start it’s backup it may fail without you noticing.
Giving each computer their own partition on the drive should alleviate the problem.
A partition for each one the drive should work alright, but it may turn to custard if they both try to access the drive at the same time.
To be honest I haven’t had the need or the time to delve that deeply into how Timeshift works sorry.
You should be able to highlight the ones that you want to remove then click on the delete button.
From what I understand is that each backup is just the difference between the original backup and the current system.
The hardware isn’t so much of a problem as there are companies who can make or source compatible tablets like the PineTab2 and the PineNote.
It’s making the software compatible with a lower power mobile device and learning what needs to fixed.
It would have been much easier to deal with getting a tablet up and running before dealing with getting a mobile device functional.
Making the small steps from laptop to tablet then to phone would have saved them a lot of grief and software mistakes.
