If the main battery isn’t “meant to be replaced”, it will often act as the CMOS battery (e.g. MacBooks have been doing this since roughly 2008).

+1 on OnlyOffice, it has 1:1 formatting compatibility with Microsoft Office. Unlike LibreOffice, it doesn’t have to translate documents between odt and docx in the background.

In the same vein, OnlyOffice has poor compatibility with odt files etc.

That’s incorrect, Graphene OS has Android Auto support.

I was very disappointed with the (default) Camera after switching to Graphene, luckily you can just download the Pixel Camera (including all the Pixel optimizations) from Play Store on Graphene OS or download it as an APK bundle from some other sites (downloading the normal APK won’t work, it has to be the bundle).

Yesss fcast looks incredibly promising. Sadly the only app implementing it seems to be GrayJay, I really hope it will catch on more.

Not OP, but this instantly made me think of the worst-case scenario PDFs I stumbled upon on Lemmy recently.

TVHeadend is the way, I’ve been running it with a USB satellite tuner for 5+ years. Setting it up can be a little confusing, but once it’s running you pretty much never have to touch it again.

As for clients, there’s a Jellyfin plugin, however it seems to not work for me right now.

My client of choice is Kodi with the TVHeadend plugin, and that works great. If you still want Jellyfin integration, you could just add your recordings folder as a library in Jellyfin.

Could I purchase two different brand drives and use them with btrfs?

I don’t quite remember the source for this, but I believe I read some time ago that it’s actually a good thing to have separate drives. The reasoning is, if you buy two identical drives (at the same time), the likelyhood of both drives failing around the same time is severely higher.

This is then amplified by the fact that rebuilding a RAID puts a lot of strain on the non-dead drive, so if ie. drive 1 dies and drive 2 is about to die, the strain you put on drive 2 in order to rebuild your RAID onto drive 3 might kill drive 2 before you even finish rebuilding your RAID.

Again, this is just from my memory, it might be worth doing some more research on.

In that case you can try adding before:2023 or similar to your search

I absolutely loved Splatoon 2, especially the DLC. It’s such a shame that you have to pay for online battles though.

I highly recommend transcoding all your videos with ffmpeg, for me that reduces their size to anything from 10% - 25% of the original (100MB -> 20MB). I always use this command:

ffmpeg input.mp4 -vcodec libx265 -crf 28 ouput.mp4

(This will strip metadata, I was too lazy to figure out how to make it keep metadata). What I also do for most videos is turn them all into 1080p30 if they aren’t already.

You can ask ChatGPT to make you a small script to apply that command to all files in a folder, I can’t remember how to do it off the top of my head.

Edit: for linux run this in the folder with your videos:

for file in *.mp4; do ffmpeg -i "$file" -vcodec libx265 -crf 28 "${file%.*}_transcoded.mp4"; done

My phone’s at like 120/128 GB, I have 70 to 80 GB in apps, 90% of which I haven’t openened in the last year. But you better believe I’m not deleting those apps, cuz a) I still have pleeeenty of space and b) what if I need them some day.

It’s currently in early development and I don’t know how well it works, but Xournal++ mobile is a thing. Its desktop app is really good, so I’d expect the mobile app to eventually get there aswell.

Edit: Whoops skipped the drawing part, Xournal++ is more for note-taking. Krita is a good choice for drawing.

Dolphin (Wii and Gamecube emulator) sounds like something for you.

MineTest should also fit your criteria.

I believe there are a few games on F-Droid, I haven’t tried any of them tho. Other than that, I believe the best games for you would be Wii games or an older console. Possibly also switch (with yuzu if you find an apk), but that requires a beefy phone.

I really wanted to switch to Cuda, but there are a few small features missing which is super infuriating to me.

I can’t think of any off the top of my head right now though.

For a while I tried tagging my memes (Samsung Gallery lets you make tags and assign as many to any image as you want), but that lasted about two days.

If you’re ok with using your tablet as a drawing tablet with your PC, I use an app called Virtual Tablet for that. Sadly it appears to be Windows and MacOS only, but a quick search led to Weylus. I have no idea how well this works and never tried it, but from the readme it sounds pretty good.

I’m in the same boat with my Reverb G2…

Your link doesn’t work, but I still found what you mean. I think at that point I’d probably look into the Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter or something similar instead, as Miracast on Linux actually works quite well with GNOME Network Displays. But my current goal is not having to connect any additional hardware to the projector, so I will be looking into pyatv for now.

I can’t find any “funtax” user in the linked openairplay repo, but it appears that I have completely missed pyatv’s ability to stream video. As long as it can stream video I think I can make it do screen mirroring too. Thank you very much, I will be looking into pyatv now!
