Not seeing this as currently on sale, was it a very short one?

I don’t know much about cycling, I assume she was passing a large amount of performance-enhancing substances directly into his mouth?
Then why aren’t you studying physics?
The allowable exception is when the what is a what the fuck, as in you had to use a hack so horrible that it requires an apology comment
I’ve been hearing about it on and off for nearly a decade, still don’t know if it’s actually a thing
It’s not clear why Google wants to do this

I think it used to be called “cloudready” until Google bought it and made it official. It seems like it’s aimed more at businesses and schools that want a fleet of Chromebooks, but it seems alright for the casual tinkerer too.

It’s always the way with new innovations, they start off a bit buggy and you’re never sure if they’re just a gimmick. Hopefully we’re seeing the technology mature (and more critically become affordable!)
I’d love for phones to go back to being all shapes and sizes, we’ve had like 15 years of identical rectangles!
ChromeOS Flex is an interesting one; it’s definitely not as flexible as a proper Linux distro but if you need something simple and hard-to-break to run on an old machine (for instance for an elderly relative who’s still using Windows XP) then it could be worth a shot. That said, I’m now investigating whether Linux Mint is a better choice for my own elderly relatives!
Not an actual answer, but I think a Chromebook reaching EoL doesn’t mean it stops getting all updates. I think it’s something along the lines of it stops getting firmware updates but it still gets browser updates, though worth checking exactly what’s happening on your specific device. If you’re feeling crazy you can even try installing ChromeOS Flex on it and it should miraculously be “supported” again.
Ah, as in opening vertically rather than horizontally?
Does it work on Linux? If so I think if could take off on Lemmy
Not everyone has the same hearing range (it tends to get worse as you get older, hence those ultrasonic teenager repellers that people claim are for cats). If a device is running at the very low end of what we consider ultrasound and OP can hear higher than most then maybe they can hear the sensors. I would be surprised if an ultrasonic sensor was running this low though.
Isn’t that what the Pixel Fold is?
At least they tried, eh Red Bull??
