It’s almost as though Apple’s main focus is selling devices instead of harvesting user data for ads. iOS has so many anti-tracking and privacy features built into it that I feel exhausted thinking about all the mods I need to make to factory software on an Android phone to bring it up to the same level.
Certainly iOS has its flaws, and I miss easier ad blocking, but overall I’m more satisfied with the experience.
OP, I mostly agree with what you’re saying about Android. I’ve been a user since 2010, and development of mainline Android stagnated about a decade ago. Google isn’t really trying very hard anymore. I got an iPhone this round as my main device. I still have plenty of other Android devices as well as my last phone (OnePlus 8T) that I will continue to use, but I’m enjoying most of the change in user experience to iOS. It’s smoother and better thought out in most respects.
If your device is really that slow though, are you sure the battery is good? They will definitely slow down when the battery ages to prevent sudden shutdowns if the CPU were to try to use more power than the battery can supply. I think that a bad battery can do the same even if it’s not old.
If not that, how is the custom ROM scene for your phone? That may be a solution if it’s possible. Manufactures like Samsung sometimes go overboard with additions to the OS that just screw things up. Samsung was probably the worst offender in this regard back when the first Galaxy devices launched.
I agree with j4k3 that Prusa makes the best quality sheets, but I have also had great experiences with Triangle Lab’s stuff on AliExpress. Fysetc is good for how cheap it is.
I have that one too. PETG will work on the “carbon fiber” side with a little glue stick.

Dude, I’m right here!
I think your eagerness to be factual and helpful isn’t a bad quality, and to be clear: I am being serious about that.
Is there a category for people who understand my jokes?
Why are we treating tiny females as a separate category from normal-sized females?
THEY’RE DELETING THE DOGS!
Thank you for that article! He’s a truly good writer, and I read a couple more of his entries before I bookmarked his site.
Fencing stolen goods between our store and a GameStop that was run by a former district manager of Blockbuster, plus her husband was a cop.
The first time was fun because I had a good manager and Netflix was still seen by them as the upstart and not a real competitor.
A couple of years later and things at a different location under a coke head manager made for a very different experience.
I try not to. I worked there twice.
Very nice. Thank you for sharing!
You could always just do a plate that’s customized to the SBC layout, like what you’d get with a PC motherboard.
Firefox Mobile supports most desktop extensions now, so Ublock Origin works too
We all start somewhere, and none of us learn without the help of others who’ve come before us. No need to apologize for that.
ping is a terminal (command line) utility used to check that a different machine is reachable. The name comes from the sound that sonar makes when it strikes a metal ship hull.
Termux is the app to get on Android.
Try it. Open up a terminal emulator / command line and do a ping google.com (or your website or local network address of choice). You’ll see the response from the other machine and how long it took to do that.
Lavazza is delicious too. I actually don’t know if the American Costco stores carry Lavazza. I didn’t think my local store does. I see in their website that they may only be available for delivery.
The Kirkland beans really are bad, which is surprising. I like the Don Pablo beans they carry a lot though.
Sounds more like a cure to me
