set it up once, never need to touch it again

its part of the google services that microg does not replicate. there is a reason why there is a 100x-ish difference between microg and gapps packages

I dont think Andoid Auto works on MicroG, but the other apps will probably work or can atleast be made to with some prodding

sorry for not making this clear enough in my original comment:

I would be concerned that a sizable chuck of the FOSS community would refuse to join a discord, on priciple, because they won’t support a company that is going against all of their ideals.

THe problem is, Discord in’t really the type of platform for a good chunk of FOSS users though. Discord activly scans Messages vor activity that might break their ToS, even private Chats. This is a privacy violation which i and many other find to be quite uncool. This means you might lack the more privacy-focused users opinions.

Some people are now struggling to feed their children. Do you think they are out of touch?

Compare the graph of the cost of living vs the graph of income. one rises quite a bit faster…

Im mainly Ken-fused…

Illegal substances are not allowed by the very definition of the term. Discussions regarding these substances focus on whether or not their status of being illegal should be repealed or continued as an “allowed illegal substance” would be a paradox in a court of law.

This is not a repair channel, but you might like “The Secret Life of Machines”, a small british tv sgow that explained certain technologies and was run by basically 2 british lads. one of them is still around and has a YouTube channel

you can easily find out by rightclicking the image and showing it in a new tab and copypasting the url into a texteditor, then rightclicking the image in the discord, copying the url, and pasting that too, and comparing both up to the ? (ignore everything afterwards)

bring a laptop. if you want an external one, they most of the time only need usb and if not, probably a 12V power brick

disc drives usually dont work on android unless they have a soecisl mode which “translates” the disc filesystem so it looks like FAT32 to the phones.

I dont watch too many series/movies. Never payed for streaming, planning on never doing so because of all that bullshit. I prefer my media on stamped and metallized plastic discs that work offline, or plain DRM-free video/audio files on my HDD.

for me, opening my music folder in Picard (available for download at https://picard.musicbrainz.org/) and clicking “analyze” was enough

are you sure you are not mixing up MusicBrainz (the Metadata Database) with MuiscBrainz Picard (the tool to put metadata on files)

plugging random old USB stuff into a computer:

linux: I guess this looks kind of like a webcam. Here you go, /dev/video0

windows: nooo! what is this?! go search for divers that dont register a hit on virustotal! see you in an hour.

try musicbrainz picard for the metadata

kids should not work nor “have to” work. they should have fun, get educated and well… be kids. they have more than 40 years down the road to suffer in a cubicle

i suggest a raspberry pi or similar single-board computer with either LibreELEC (good for local/NAS files or jellyfin) or a build of androidTV installed

30GB of music on an SD card, because my phone cant do LTE and is stuck on EDGE. If you have old CDs, spend an evening watching YT or something while putting in a new disc every few minutes, otherwise download from youtube with Newpipe/Seal/yt-dlp or buy stuff on bandcamp. Probably saves you a couple 100 megs of data volume each month
