Why not install SteamOS or plain Arch Linux on the GPD devices then?

Surely LineageOS and similar projects will continue to maintain their own, open source version of the dialer and whatever else gets dropped from AOSP.

There are good things to be said about the Ally, but I find the soon-to-be-released GPD handhelds more interesting. Both are officially stated to support SteamOS (which means plain Arch and possibly other distros should also work great) and offer something different from the Deck and Ally in that the GPD Win4 is much more compact, and the GPD Max 2 has a much larger display.

LineageOS is great even without root, but I still recommend using Magisk on it for system-wide ad blocking (via e.g. AdAway) if nothing else.

A banking app may have a simple root check, or a SafetyNet check. You can use shamiko and safetynet-fix respectively to fool these, both have already been linked.

Spy Kyoushitsu 2nd cour. First one was fun, especially in the “manor” arc that concluded it. Other than that, I have high hopes for Zom 100, since it gives off Zombieland Saga vibes and that series had no shortage of great scenes in either season.

I love larger displays. Easy on the eyes, better gaming and video experience. Still, on many newer phones aspect ratio is a problem for me. If the phone’s screen is something like 21:9 then it’s only really big on paper, since videos won’t fit perfectly, and the text and UI elements of games I play would still be pretty small, since they scale with the screen’s height in landscape mode.

This show is so well-made.

I do play with a controller (Steam Deck) often, but K&M is king for me. I can’t imagine clearing the current abyss on anything but K&M. The convenience of mouse look and the responsiveness of keyboard movement are awesome. On a side note, the Steam Deck’s grip buttons are very nice, enabling character switching without letting go of the left stick, and the touch screen comes in handy for menuing and actions such as gadget use.

The odds stack up rapidly. 80 pulls total is pretty common, 85 could be called unlucky.

Try sorting by daily top as a workaround until this gets properly fixed.
