Google Play’s latest security change may break many Android apps for some power users. The Play Integrity API uses hardware-backed signals that are trickier for rooted devices and custom ROMs to pass. in c/technology@lemmy.world

I have zero problems with this on Lineage. ?? No spoofing either, just Lineage.

There are probably some of us still sitting on free ESXi hosts, but as I've gotten off mine to Proxmox ive been pretty pleased so far. Leave ESXi, it was a great way to learn but Proxmox is more better.

Here is the one big trick I learned: if using the native import tool, shutdown the source VM and delete all the snapshots! Each snapshot adds an exponential slowdown due to the crappy API. If importing windows, remove the VMWare Guest Tools first. That seems to make the import process work pretty well. Linux and FreeBSD don't seem to care but Windows sure does.

Its still the same as it ever was, just less traffic and they charge five bucks to list vehicles now. I still use it but responses are a lot slower.

Yeah you usually can. LibreOffice works fine for most things. Some classes need things like Solid works that only run on Windows, and the remote testing software can be a nightmare. You might get an O365 license as part of your enrollment but doubt you really need it.

Protip; learn how to typeset your papers in something like LyX and integrate Zotero for citation management. The typesetting usually got me a few extra points alone.

Oh im not defending it. Just saying we've been well-fed geese for a very long time now. It has just changed from cramming us full of the Tootsie Pop Owl and the Doublemint Twins with a chaser of Sears Christmas Catalog to a succotash of targeted ads.
