I had the original Pixel (codename Sailfish) and eventhough it was 1st gen, it was one of the best if not the best experience I had: clean software, camera is great. Google did some wizardry with their camera via software at the time. The downside: absolutely terrible battery life.
been living in Samsung’s garden for many many years lol. I hate the bloatwares that came with the phone, yes you can use adb to delete some apps but some still stay (core Samsung apps). The one feature that really gets me into GOS is separare user profiles. So I can compartmentalize my stuff + a dummy profile.
definitely inside job. The dude who failed to shoot Trump was around 160 yards away. Whoever shot Kirk was around 150 - 200 yards away and he only needed 1 shot. Definitely pro stuff, maybe a hit order from within the gov.
OP, I am in the same boat. The features shown in GrapheneOS are very nice and I want to buy Pixel just to put it on. Is there a reason you go for the 9, beside price? I’m really keen on the 9a due to its flat camera and low price. I dont like phones with bumped camera. However, recent JerryRig video shows that the 9a is very very difficult to replace the battery, so not sure if it is good in the long run lol.
i like that plane analogy lol
Started at low for 6 months , then I travelled to the valley of despair.
I lost my mind and stayed there for a long time. 1 year? 3 years? who are you? who am i? (send help plz)
A traveller names Fedora rescued me. Now I am further down on that curve: Fedora silverblue.
Its been a while since I used LineageOS on my OG Pixel (sailfish). I remember you have to install the custom bootloader like TWRP to flash the ROM and there was this thing with A and B partitions. Not sure if things change…
With an unlocked bootloader, whoever gets your phone can do the weird Vol Up + Power button combos to flash enter the TWRP bootloader. I couldnt recall correctly, but it is possible they can view / delete your data right within the TWRP screen. Not sure about transferring them off of your device.
OTOH, a locked bootloader wouldnt allow you to do this. There is no way to enter a flash a different ROM.
The thing with unlocked bootloader like LineageOS, especially in my case an OG Pixel, is that you can still flash the official Pixel OS in case Lineage starts to mess things up. LineageOS leaves the bootloader unlocked, so you can still flash.
I’m talking about the case where your phone is completely bricked, i.e. cannot open phone. So you can just use platform-tools to reflash. With Graphene, i guess it is more difficult in this case?

What if I dont use M$ account? So it is just a local user, then where does Word back up to?
Writer and Impress should cover Word and Powerpoint perfectly. Even if your colleagues use Windows, you can still open them just fine.
Excel though is troublesome, especially those with coded VBA or some plugins from companies. But for basic Excel? Calc can do the job ok too.
brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Do you like the default launcher? Is there a way to clean up the screen? From youtube videos, I see that the launcher is similar to iOS where all your apps are laid out. I prefer the minimal approach: a few favorite apps, some widgets and an app draw

How is the weight and size? Is it easy to carry and put in pocket or car?
thanks for your suggestions. I figured it out lol: Wire in the Blood, Ep 1. Maybe thats why it got stuck in my head lmao. Very shocking 1st episode.
well folks, I figured it out: It is “Wire in the Blood” episode 1 “The Mermaids Sing”.
It was episode 1 so maybe thats why it got stuck in my head
Main MC didnt save anyone, he got saved instead.
Yes the suspect likes to cross dress.
Robson Green played this series really well. He is more of a detective / psychologist.
So I am rewatching old detective shows like WhiteChapel, early Sherlock, Ripper Street…etc. You know the usual police/detective chasing killers and solving strange cases.
Anyway, I remember I used to watch a show similar to the ones above around 2010ish. But the only thing I could recall is that the killer (of that specific story arc) likes to cross dress or maybe homosexual? Before I go further, let me say I have nothing against trans people. You guys are cool. It is just coincident that the one thing I remember is this one lol.
So in this one episode, the killer comes face to face with our main character. It is their only confrontation and it is the final episode of that arc. I think the MC caught him before he kills another one. I also think the killer dies in this episode so we close this story arc. There is a lot of “I think”, I understand but my memories are so hazy lol. Another thing I could recall is that the killer is a male, and he dresses like one of those dominatrixes. This scene was so fucked up that the only thing I remember was this killer. I think our victim was being tortured with BDSM stuff and before he got killed, our MC saved him.
Very hazy, I know. I also checked the following with no luck:
Sherlock: definitely not. Sherlock only comes in like 3 episodes per season, and I dont recall any scene like that. .
Whitechapel: I just finished watching the entire show and there was no such scene.
The Alienist: I watched these a long time ago. I can try again but from Wikipedia’s description of the episode, there was no such scene.
Ripper Street: I am watching it now from Ep 1 and I dont want to read up the episodes because the show is good. I want to enjoy watching it w/o spoilers. Maybe this is the one? I dont know.
Several thing I am 100% sure:
Show is produced post 2000.
I definitely watched this in 2010ish, exactly 2011. Reason for this is that I remember showing this show to my HS roommate and even he went “that is fucked up”. Again, no discrimination against trans, it is just the episode.
It is definitely a detective style show. In fact, our MC caught the wrong killer and hence the reveal in this episode is so shocking.
That is all I could remember… Appreciate any help
oh thanks, i’ll post the info shortly. Thought Lemy has a dedicated instance for this.
