Some sites say it&#39;s PCIe SSD, others say SATA SSD. Acer didn&#39;t publish a service manual as far as I can see. <br/><br/>Other things I&#39;d try before giving up are turning on legacy/CSM in BIOS and booting Debian as legacy instead of EFI; and swapping the SSD with a spare if you have one and see if Debian sees that one. 2026-08-20T19:11:48Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs99g92rjy7t5fn0dgmrxz4gh22e0q930jr9ejy04zqqpq5gtuq8mczyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgk0de7l In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxkkgf3am6q8leag0ejnxuvft0djclrvj7plxsku7qw2lt0vlxv4g2yqqsl'>nevent1q…qqsl</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I get it...we were hit with an unexpectedly high property tax bill on the house my girlfriend inherited when her mom passed last year. They weren&#39;t supposed to raise the taxes on it until after the probate process was complete, but they did anyway, and it was literally four times the billed amount as last year. I had been putting money aside for a new phone but had to use that to help her make the payment and avoid a lien. <br/><br/>If you can share the make and model of the laptop I don&#39;t mind doing some research on it for you. 2026-08-20T18:39:06Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszfqdvx933289g4vueghh2ywvpvtdpsmutfntxu0he0zfel2tq5mczyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgqvdyaq In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsfkdthmzt9vwj4r0rt7u6uev0c4m2qs0z72fa28m809st3nh90hxs8v8exp'>nevent1q…8exp</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Is it an eMMC or an NVMe/SATA SSD?

It&#39;s an extremely ableist position and I had no idea he was that aggressively against accessibility for Mastodon users. <br/><br/>There&#39;s a word for someone who joins a community with the full intent of pushing against the community&#39;s established way of doing things, then pretends to be butthurt when called out on it. Jamie has zero respect for the community and according to his other posts, he started this thread intentionally as a honeypot to find people to block. It&#39;s trollish behavior and absolutely not something I expected out of anyone, especially him. <br/><br/>HIs HOA analogy is completely flawed as well. I hate HOAs and I will never own a house or rent an apartment that has one. But a community is not an HOA; there&#39;s no board of directors here, nor a community leader; we&#39;re all a bunch of folks who have common interests and wish to have a nice place to talk about them. That community includes disabled folks, so we all work together to make it an easier place for those folks, just as we make it a welcoming place for minorities of all types, folks of all genders, and so on. When someone enters the community with the intent to troll it with honeypots like this, the community responds by banding together in support of one another. It makes it easier for him to block us, but then one wonders why even be on Mastodon at all if he hates us all so much.<br/><br/><a href="https://www.jwz.org/blog/2025/02/on-blocking-mastodon-hoa-edition/">https://www.jwz.org/blog/2025/02/on-blocking-mastodon-hoa-edition/</a> 2026-08-17T13:01:44Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs0ts22f805nhlxfxajfpaem6em5x0fwg23h75er7awucmtc95803czyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgcsr29l In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs8g32ce4mf9g5g6n0eslctvxq7alpzpq350sq0ql9kulqgse4pgpc3ju9pv'>nevent1q…u9pv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Holy shit. This whole thread completely turned my respect for Jamie around. I&#39;ve been a fan of his writing and projects since the early 2000s but this is such a fucking odd hill to die on. It&#39;s his hill though, so all I can do is speak out in support of your attempt to be helpful.<br/><br/>Jamie, I get that you despise anyone telling you how to do what you do (your fierce independence is something I admired about you), but in this case I don&#39;t feel that was what was going on. It was a suggestion, not a callout or a demand, and this is a public space that you chose to join, a space that is full of disabled folks who depend on alt-text to be able to even read a post.<br/><br/>Accessibility matters, you&#39;re old enough to know that, and now that I know your position on it (especially as someone who is legally blind without glasses and has a hard time reading tiny text even with them), and I have seen you punching down extremely hard and without compassion on fellow disabled folks, I don&#39;t think I can consider you someone to look up to anymore. If you&#39;ve read this far, I know you will block me after if you haven&#39;t already, so I&#39;ll just say one more thing. How you choose to be known and remembered is exactly that: your choice. 2026-08-17T12:37:06Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9tw8f2ds6fkj43grc4fnkuznrl669ekxv3gsr7vpjgpjf8huevkczyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgr0g0d0 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsq26crvqrg4w0g8ncej3p8du62q0ap5ryr3e3ff7yfg82f0xz6jrskqh38g'>nevent1q…h38g</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;m pretty sure you&#39;re not talking about Exotic Silicon, but your post immediately brought them to mind. I love their content but I hate that they do this in some of their articles, along with a dash of almost-skeuomorphism that just makes otherwise great articles difficult to read and absorb. <br/><br/>An example:<br/><a href="https://research.exoticsilicon.com/articles/sbc_bootcamp_2021">https://research.exoticsilicon.com/articles/sbc_bootcamp_2021</a> 2026-08-13T11:05:30Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs07drjedhgfaps2l378ay43l865lq4pmngyhsyzq33jmmwc4p2zhszyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgethyc3 Well, shit.

I know, you&#39;ve heard that all your life and it&#39;s good financial sense. But these days it&#39;s not just about the money. <br/><br/>All new cars from the major brands come with an always-on connection back to the manufacturer. Even if you never connect your phone to the car&#39;s infotainment system, even if you decline to accept the terms on the car&#39;s screen, even if you never turn on the sound system, it is constantly sending data back to the mothership. Your identity is tied to the car&#39;s VIN (vehicle identification number) and everything you do with the car is recorded and transmitted, where it can then be analyzed, processed, and sold. It gets sold to insurance companies, the government, and data farmers who then sell it on to other entities like Google and Apple to improve their mapping services. You didn&#39;t agree to this? Too bad, it&#39;s not your choice. <br/><br/>This should be illegal, but it isn&#39;t. Why would the various governments want to outlaw a practice they benefit from?<br/><br/>The only way to avoid this data harvesting is to buy a used car. &#34;But what about the extra maintenance?&#34; Do your homework, have the car inspected by a trusted mechanic before purchase, and look for one-owner cars with low miles. Put the money you save on the monthly payment towards regular maintenance to keep it running well. <br/><br/>And yes, I know that the day will come when there are no more used cars without this built in tracking garbage. I absolutely love the *idea* of electric cars (except Tesla, fuck that shit) and I hope one day we reach the point where the majority of vehicles on the road are electric. Unfortunately, those are the most connected of all, basically a computer on wheels and the manufacturer has a vested interest in tracking and analyzing your data to improve next year&#39;s model.<br/><br/>However, if you buy a used gas/petrol car, even one with telemetry baked in, you can at least disable the antenna because you own the car. Look up your model and &#34;disable 4G/5G antenna&#34;. There are methods for all of the major manufacturers. Unfortunately those manufacturers are pushing hard to stop you from doing so by doing things like tying the car&#39;s ignition system to that always-on connection or trying to get laws passed to prevent modification of that part of the vehicle for &#34;safety reasons&#34;. They know a vehicle is a necessity for most folks and will try to use that position against you.<br/><br/>Fight back, keep control of your own property, and buy a used car if you have to have one. 2026-05-25T12:22:41Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsqc7vkeftjmtdrlhlptp9ka0e520q2tqtqr47gz2ufen77y8xjl2gzyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgvsup97 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs2wtzxdwzeap35zy8999u3tmtdsknae8xyr3np2t473kpe6030eus2dpxcn'>nevent1q…pxcn</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>It seems so self-contradictory to me. &#34;You can only have 100 titles, if you try to have more than that we will delete titles.

This weekend I plan to do the brakes on my car (I try to do all of my own mechanical work because I can, because I enjoy it, and because it saves money) and I am already dreading the constant stream of notifications and texts and calls that will make me put down my tools and clean my hands every five minutes to address. So I just...won&#39;t. The phone will stay in the house. The work apps will be turned off.

But my phone will be turned off. <br/><br/>I&#39;m already looking forward to the weekend after this, where I plan to finally dig into my Commodore VIC-20 and figure out why it doesn&#39;t output video, and generally tinker around with things I enjoy.

That&#39;s just so wrong!<br/><br/>Edit: looking into this a little shows that GrapheneOS devs banned CalyxOS from using their code because it wasn&#39;t open source? So does that mean GrapheneOS isn&#39;t fully open source? That&#39;s disturbing if it&#39;s the case still today. I&#39;m going to keep looking into both OSes before I commit to either. <br/><br/><a href="https://github.com/AOSPAlliance/android-prepare-vendor/issues/78">https://github.com/AOSPAlliance/android-prepare-vendor/issues/78</a> 2024-11-08T11:39:49Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqszj2k8g7raydqx2g8aduqf5e4x3w8gee7kwea7qlnnqx8juzddhpszyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgjtq5ye In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsg62zwczqvd03ghfzhf23p7nkh4uttns6xjp52yw0vuml4rtrah7cay3qz5'>nevent1q…3qz5</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Thank you everyone for the feedback, it has all been extremely helpful! Please feel free to share your experiences further. <br/><br/>I&#39;ve decided I want to try GrapheneOS first, and if everything I need works I&#39;ll probably stick with it. If I have issues with it I&#39;m going to switch to CalyxOS and try it for a while. If neither of them work out I&#39;ll probably fall back to LineageOS. I know for a fact I don&#39;t want the default Pixel ROM, been there done that and it felt like Google was slurping up every single thing I did with the phone and using it to bombard me with ads and targeted content. <br/><br/>Thanks again to all who contributed and all who continue to chime in! 2024-11-06T17:28:19Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsg62zwczqvd03ghfzhf23p7nkh4uttns6xjp52yw0vuml4rtrah7czyrh337xthkahx336f59l0rd7ndgcfltar7rngk9y8efy93htl6rpgvffhft In slightly more positive (or at least proactive) news, can anyone relay their experiences with either #GrapheneOS or #CalyxOS? I have decided (mostly but not completely unrelated to yesterday&#39;s results) to move away from all things #Apple for good. That means I&#39;m getting rid of my iPhone and Macbook. I want to move to an Android phone that is completely de-Googled.<br/><br/>I&#39;m going back to the #Pixel 8 Pro, if that makes a difference. Once I&#39;ve got my carrier set up on the eSIM I will wipe it and install one of the two ROMs listed above. Any help in this area is greatly appreciated, as are boosts! <br/><br/><span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub13jwxl2uzywxmmqnx75eqnfjfvdfgkgjpyyrl239j959nr4qnv30s8pj6a3" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Thom, bring back Token Ring</span> (<span class="italic">npub13jw…j6a3</span>)</a></span>, I believe you have a Pixel 8 Pro too right?
