The only reasonably-priced phone I have found that has a headphone jack and SD card slot is the OnePlus Nord CE Lite 3 5G (Or the Nord N30 5G for North America). If you’re looking for a phone with those specs + excellent camera, pass on this one. Camera is decent, maybe a little better than an older pixel phone, but nothing special.

Both the CE and N30 are supported by LineageOS (larry) if you want to flash a different ROM.



Does a “SuperTuxKart Remastered” or similar exist?
Love playing SuperTuxKart. I love the ability to change game files to make it my own experience. I love the ability to download custom content through the form of Addons. I was curious to know if anyone has made some type of 'Remaster' of the game, in a newer engine like Godot (No proprietary stuff like Unity or UE), maybe with higher resolution textures or better lighting? **Edit:** Apparently, I didn't have my graphic settings set to max. After setting them to max, I am amazed. The difference it makes is incredible! Especially on Black Forest, it looks almost like a modern game (without the negative parts)!

Depends. If N = 1, then 1P = P. Otherwise, no.


No watch is worth 3 figures, let alone $500. I’ll stick to my PineTime I got for under $50. It has the same features I use, for a fraction of the cost.



When I was in a situation where I couldn’t play any games I wanted, I would watch no commentary, 100% playthroughs of my games so I could see all the content they have.

Yes, it’s not the same as actually playing it, but it’s better than not ever seeing what the game is about.



Been playing a heavily-modded playthrough of Minecraft. Am enjoying building up my world to look alive.


Damn, I remember watching Markiplier play this game years ago. Totally forgot about it.


From fast4x in the RiMusic Telegram channel: > Hi all, i can only say that i am very sorry and that unfortunately the project cannot continue to be a music streaming app based on YouTube. It is unfortunate this happened to such a good FOSS music streaming app. Hopefully, someone can continue it. To all the people who contributed to RiMusic all this time, thank you for making a great music streaming app! As well, thank you fast4x for working hard each week to get RiMusic to where it is.

No no, Nintendo is probably going to make the repo owner change their repository name.


Put your phone in a Faraday bag for an extended period of time, then check what kind of ads you get.


Burnout 3, Midnight Club 3, and NFS Underground 2 were the best games to play on PS2. Such nostalgia.


I have it installed but disabled. Will auto updates still occur?


Update Google Play Services through Aurora Store?
I'm running a version of Android called OxygenOS, and there was a GPS update available in the Aurora Store. However, when I attempted to install it, a message appeared: "This app normally receives updates from Google Play Store. By updating from a different source, you may receive future updates from any source on your phone. App functionality may change." I'm concerned that updating the GPS through Aurora might cause issues with some of my other applications, particularly those I've paid for. Is it safe to go ahead with the update?

Recommendations for good FOSS games?
Preferably, apps that can be installed from F-Droid. APK recommendations are acceptable too.
