Alt OSes for EOL Chromebooks by tophneal in c/chromebookcommunity@lemm.ee

I've always heard good things about it, but it appears to no longer be maintained. It may still be the best option for my older, low spec 'book.

After seeing they have a generic x86 iso for postmarketOS, I may try it too. Ive been wanting to try out the gnome mobile shell option in pmbootstrap

I'm curious if anyone has tried alternative OSes on an EOL Chromebook?

Ive read using brunch can keep them receiving updates (without losing Android/Linux containers)

I tried out bliss is from a live usb last night and it was okay. Honestly the 3 launcher options just send to compete with each other.

Anyone tried any others out? If so, which ones, what was your experience like?

I looked these up too after seeing them mentioned in an interview. Definitely vaporware. Reviews are not good. It’s very limited in its capabilities vs an actual laptop, build quality is meh at best, and the glasses are not very accommodating to the wearer.

Neat premise, not there yet.

I tell people, like my friend that wanted a bunch of drivel kids stuff, that if they give me 2 hard drives I'll set them up as their own library.

Need some advice on scanning (sh.itjust.works)

I’m having a bit of a hard time with this, but I also acknowledge this is still relatively niche still.

I’d like to make printed recreations of some parts that I currently have. They’re unfortunately a bit complex to quickly recreate manually in a sculpting software. I do have an iPad PRo and a budget for any additional hardware to help. I was hoping I could find a carousel I could connect to the iPad Pro and use and app to control the carousel and scan the parts. I’m not finding anything.

Can anyone recommend a good setup to make 3D scans of these small parts, or an app/hardware combo that could help me accomplish this?

I don’t get this. For each of my devices running arch, the only tinkering I’ve encountered were for nitpicky customizations I wanted, which I have to do on another distro. After the arch installation completes it’s given me a fully functional desktop

I don't get why people always bring up the "drama" of the bubble color on iphone texts. That "drama"was overblown. I've never met anyone who actually cares if another person's using a different type of phone than them. Those people have got to be such a small minority of the population (and likely have a huge overlap with the ones that are just crap people already.) At this point bringing up the bubble colors is just a convenient way to fill out a dull argument.

As I'm sure many others have encountered, within days of creating any user in O365, they start receiving spam, phishing, and solicitation emails. Some of these bad actors have shown a very clear pattern to me, so it leads me to believe a team of bad actors may have found access to our GAL and will make regular attempts to scam our employees. I'm of course, also curious how I might find that employees with minimal outside communications (external communications are with specific individuals at client companies.)

Unfortunately, I haven't much experience with SecOPs, so I'm curious if anyone more experienced can suggest some good tools to recommend for me to do some digging into this. Tool/app platform doesn't matter, I've got Windows, Mac, and Linux machines available to utilize for testing.

looking for suggestions for carousel to use with ipad pro for 3d scanning (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 9 months ago by tophneal@sh.itjust.works to c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

A friend and I have an idea we want to begin working on to take something small, rescale, and print it.

When talking with a friend pretty big into printing already, he suggested for scanning in the parts that we use a carousel that can have it's speed controlled by the scanning app.

I didn't have much luck in my initial searching so I thought I'd reach out to the community for suggestions of equipment/apps we can use to get the best possible scans.

Tia!
