In my high school they managed to rip the alarm's siren off the wall without triggering it; if these kids have even an 1/8 th of the ingenuity they had, these things aren't gonna last

I think the options may be either:

An ecotank, the problem with them is that it doesnt respect the last point, since if it's not used in a while the ink it's going to dry and clog the print head, but i've seen some pretty good prints coming out of them+ on aliexpress you can get ink + other bits for cheap

A brother mfc, if i remember correctly there where color laser variants, the problem with them is cost and size, if i remember correctly they are office printers, space was not taken in cosideration when they where desined, so they are huge compared to standard printers + the ink cartriges are expensive, but last forever, i'm not sure if you can find cartiges on aliexpress, toner refills are more likely, but can be very messy and requiring cutting a hole in the cartriges, and i've found out that for the b/w toner printers it's the most economical way of getting ink for them

Sorry for the length of the comment.

My laptop had 32gb of emmc from factory; it came preinstalled with windows 10; windows 10 pretended at least 64gb and constantly kept the emmc at 0bytes free; i was sick of it. + windows 10 on that poor celereon was miserable.

I've always been searching for the time to learn python, but between uni and work i wake up at 5 and go back home at 10; + they where not going to pay me for this fix

Tldr; couldn't be fucked to study a whole other language in my nonexistent free time for a fix that they wouldn't pay me for anyways

Factory reset instructions: press for 10 seconds, then you'll hear a beep and your unit will be brought back to factory settings

Don't ever attempt to use regex for scraping.

Proceeds to implement a scraper in bash with grep and awk because it's the only way i know how to

I'm genuinely more curious about the bent screens than the bsod

 

When android auto first came out i remember that on the market appeared android sticks that were meant to expand the functionality of android auto. They where like the android auto wireless adaptors that are around nowdays but where a standalone android device that used a phone's hotspot for an internet connection. Are these sticks still around or are they completely gone?

 

The only one that know is obtainium, but from what i understood it only fetches the latest version of an app and it doesn't even check if it gets installed correctly.

I'm also i'm concerned about the safety of the apks; i know that trusting the f droid repo isn't any safer than trusting the builds from the dev, but it would be nice to know if there is any way to check other than checking the code by hand.
