Idk what that guys is complaining about. I'm running Brave with also uBlock Origin (for the ads the native blocker doesn't detect) and right now on Youtube the native ad blocker catches everything and runs just fine.

I'm using right now a Poco F5 with a 7+ gen 2 and, besides gpu intensive stuff (playing Genshin Impact on lowest settings doesn't always give 60fps), I can't tell the difference from more powerful phones.

The casting option doesn't work, since only chromium browser support it and the extension is gone from the chrome store.

Unless one casts the screen directly, but that gives potato quality image.

Unfortunately, that workaround doesn't work for when you want to watch on TV, I believe.

I believe the reason they do this is because some resellers were unlocking the bootloader and installing a ROM with malware and selling that off to unsuspecting customers. This delay (and needing to be registered with a phone number) makes that process both impractical and easy to detect.

This is true, but also really stupid. The resellers that insert malicious roms into their phones always manage to get a privileged account from someone at Xiaomi that allows for instant bootloader unlock, so only legit customers get screwed by this.

Do you know what will always be available in areas outside North America? Piracy.

That and some of Crunchyroll originals are the reason why I don't support this streaming industry.

It's a bit shitty, but it still works. You need to link your Xiaomi account with Mi Unlocker in the dev settings and then wait from 3 days to 1 month.

But since I do that when I first get the phone, by the time I want to install a custom rom, it's ready.

I was under the impression that was only for the Xiaomi.EU rom.

I bought this phone and have no regrets.

The only thing lacking a bit for me is the software, but I'm just waiting for an official custom recovery and I'll install a pixel-like rom.

Never said they didn't, but Firefox does as well and the duality of criteria is astonishing.

In that case, couldn't you just edit out the doxxing part?

 

I recently moved from chromium to Firefox and I noticed an inconsistency I'm not sure how to fix.

On chromium, if I want to open a link on a new tab, I use ctrl + click to open it in the background and ctrl + shift + click to open it and focus.

On Firefox, with normal links it works the same way, but with bookmarks it's switched: ctrl + click opens and focuses, and ctrl + shift + click opens in the background.

I've searched settings about this with no luck.

Am I missing something?

 

Hi, I have currently arch installed with power-profiles-daemon, pipewire and wireplumber on my laptop.

If I have the power profile set to balanced or power saver, everything is fine.

However, when I set it to performance, the audio starts having very bad cracks and pops.

Has anyone experienced something similar with their setup?

Thanks.
