Putting hard drives to sleep when not in use can akso drastically decrease power consumption. But for that to work, the OS cannot be on there and things that potentially get accessed rather often neither.

Want to improve my system by doing exactly that and spinning the hard drives only up, if one watches a movie from plex. Nextcloud is on a ssd and should not make any problems anymore :)

Never heard of anything like that. Do you know anything where I can read up on it? Is it dependent on the country you live in and the stabliness of the powergrid? Because I do not even remember the last time I had no power, probably 5-10 years ago.

Well, android itself is only 15 years old. To put that into perspective.

But yes, I would also be hella mad if they stopped supporting the FP4 or FP5 after "only" 8 or 10 years.

They make the problem of their supply chain clear. And still, it is probably the most "fair" phone you can get, so I dont understand the critizism really.

Why arent you criticizing all the other manufacturers, that dont even try to do anything positive? Its always the small companies, that try to improve on things and then get shitted over for not going all the way. I dont understand it...

Never had those problems. Worked for me better than the AUX port actually, since no metal spring got damaged over time like in most of my previous phones.

The dongle works just like AUX earphones worked

But tgats stupid, since no manufacturer has parts available for that long. And fairphone released an update for the FP2 after 8 years of being available. Thats crazy! I think it got out around the same time as the Samsung S3. Try finding a genuine battery for that thing.

And also the FP1 and FP2 were sold in really low quantities. The FP3 was the first proper product, which therefor has much better support and will have parts available for much longer

Its legal in the EU. You can sell your windows key for example, despite the windows eula disallowing it

Ah, yeah thats true. Firefox desktop does not seem to have a proper PWA implementation

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (2 children)

But firefox still has PWA support, doesnt it? Atleast the fdroid Fennec build has it

The study found that ddg was worse than google though. But they only searched for products, so nk complete "test".
