Libre Computer offers some SBCs with Amlogic CPUs. I think the Le Potato might be the most popular one. I just ordered an Alta AML-A311D-CC. I’m really excited to try out how well it performs!

Unfortunately they use Chinese CPUs (made by Rockchip)
As long as Raspberry Pi doesn’t start ripping off their customers, I will happily stay with them. Most other SBCs are made by Chinese companies, which I definitely won’t buy. Hell no, I’m not supporting the Chinese economy.
2·5 months agoIs it the best?
In my experience, yes. Definitely the best one.
All the other ones I tried are much worse.
Plume is pretty cool

10·5 months agoI’ve been using Apple Music on Android for years, I definitely recommend it. The app is totally fine, I think it’s still better than Spotify’s crappy app. On desktop you can use the Cider app, which is much better than iTunes. It’s even available on Linux.
Apple Music only raised the price by $1 since the launch in 2015 (9 years ago). But they added cool features like lossless audio quality and Dolby Atmos. They also had lyrics like 6 years before Spotify added them. I think you can even get it for $6 dollars if you’re a student.
It doesn’t intentionally disable biometrics. Disabling biometrics is just a logical consequence of wiping the encryption keys from RAM. Your data is encrypted with your password as the key (not exactly, it first goes through a key derivation function, but the PIN/password is the entry point for the KDF). Your biometric information can’t decrypt your data, as your data is not encrypted with your biometric information as the key. When using biometrics, the encryption key is kept in RAM, and the biometric data is only validated by the OS. No actual decryption occurs here. The data on your phone is only being decrypted during the first unlock after a reboot. That’s why security states are grouped into BFU (before first unlock) and AFU (after first unlock).
The main purpose of this is actually security. Because when the device is in BFU (before first unlock) state, it’s much harder to gain access to the data (without the correct unlock credentials). During the reboot, the encryption keys are wiped from RAM, making it essentially impossible to access the device, since brute-force unlock attempts are prohibited by Weaver API, which is enforced by the Titan M2 hardware security module.

GrapheneOS has a convenient auto-reboot feature
Kodi is ideal for an HTPC
We need a successful replacement to DirectX for this to happen.
Vulkan?
I don’t really remember, that was a few years ago. I’ve been using the flatpak ever since.
For me it was actually the other way around, I had issues with the normal package so I went with the flatpak.
mail.tm is pretty nice for this. It’s meant to be used as a throwaway email service, but you can also save the login credentials and reuse the email address if you need it more than one time.
Go eat a dick Elon
