No, I tried by changing the package name of another app to Google Maps, it did not work.
You can install 3th party GPS software though, but depending on the app, you might need AAXLU or KingInstaller to make the 3th party software show up in AA.
Yeah,
I did a speed test comparison between Oracle MySQL and MariaDB MySQL,
MariaDB is about 10 times faster.
FYI: When Oracle bought MySQL a lot of developers left and created MariaDB, so the brains behind the project moved, and in the meantime Oracle did a great job of fucking things up.
I highly doubt they started on TES 6,
straight after TES 5 (Skyrim) released (2011).
I think it's taking so long,
since they procrastinated working on it for so long...
They where mostly focussed on milking TES through Online and re-releasing TES 5 an obscene amount of times, now they even re-released TES 4 (Oblivion), instead of putting in the time/effort/money for creating a new game.
Working on Starfield also took a chunk of their time, however that game is badly received. What scares me is that on the TES 6 wiki page, they mention that it will be written in the same Creation Engine 2 as Starfield used.
You'll run into that on many distros,
not only Debian, since most of the distros use a specific python version for OS packages, its recommended to leave the python for your OS unchanged.
But VirtualBox is not a good idea either.
Instead use a venv (virtual environment),
which is the python way to develop/run under different python versions.
By not accepting your time estimate,
requesting your reasoning why it takes that long, you explaining you calculated time in for refactoring, then rejecting your idea and granting you only time to implement the new thing, without granting time for refactoring.
And dw, my project manager is a pretty chill friend and fellow senior developer, who is reasonable and helps me with calculating in time for refactoring whenever possible/nessecary.
It's only higher up, CEOs/management, who seek to cut corners, with rocks for brains, who don't see that in the long run such practices are bad for business.
Which sadly is the case for most IT businesses. But at least in my workplace the project manager is not a rat & on the side of the developers.
Just increase your time estimate,
calculate in the time needed to refactor,
but don't tell them you're gonna refactor.
Works out most of the time.
Only when they ask why the estimate is so long, then you explain your reasoning behind it, and then they might reply with your statement and block your refactoring idea.
However, getting time to refactor most of the time, is aleady way better then never being allowed to do so.
I'd find it odd if a RPi4 can't smoothly run a browser :o
You can use btop, to monitor if you have a bottleneck on your CPU or RAM, if Swap memory gets used, things will slow down, if your CPU is clocking @ 100%, same thing but not much you can do about that besides perhaps weeding out unnessecary processes that consume a lot, if there are any.
In case your RAM is @ 100%, you could:
Use LibreWolf instead of FireFox,
it's an open source privacy focussed fork,
which removes some of the FireFox bloaty stuff, which reduces RAM usage.
Use uBlock Origin, to block advertisements, which will reduce RAM usage and increase page load speeds
Use NoScript, to block JavaScript trackers, to further reduce RAM usage and increase page load speedd, beware, will block all JS by default, so sites will break, but can be manually fixed by re-enabling only the nessecary JS components on a site
Switch to DietPi, a very light weight RAM/CPU friendly distro for SBCs like RPis, I've used it only headless (without GUI) but it only used 50Mb of RAM out of the box last time I monitorred it, which is impressively low.
I'm not familiar with GrapheneOS,
so I can't say. Only used LineageOS,
since the CyanogenMod days.
AA4MG simply makes the normal AA work on MicroG devices, with a minimal amount of proprietary privacy invasive stuff.

I've written it out in the AA4MG docs here
Yes
Not fully open source,
but less proprietary crap.
AA4MG (Android Auto 4 MicroG)
It allows to run Android Auto with:
That way the only proprietary thing you need,
is the actual Android Auto app,
not it's hand full of sketchy propriety dependencies.
Full disclosure: I helped develop AA4MG + AAXLU :)
Have you considered love?
Then, through your own eyes,
cuteness will likely be comparable,
and attractiveness even higher.
Boycot / protest against any data centers being built for AI bs in your local area.
They will not only drive up the prices for electronics, but also for electricity & water

Thanks for creating this community.
Looking forward to what it will bring,
but assume/hope it will be some very welcome positive things! :D
Oh misread my bad,
not much experience with PostgreSQL

You're right,
gambling is to screw you out of your money.
I'd recommend to steer clear of it.
Also the prediction market stuff,
it's the latest new gambling hype thing,
since they can use loopholes to bypass gambling laws.
You can look into VaultWarden,
an open source self-hostable fork of BitWarden.
https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden
There are also free community instances available which you can use, however then you will depend on them for reliable uptime and security.
I wish more communities implemented this rule.

The wiki does mention it has been in pre-production since 2018, which still seems doubtful to me.

For M$ no clue, for browsing,
AdNauseam comes to mind.
It's a fork of uBlock Origin,
which instead of blocking all the ads,
hides all the ads + clicks on them all in the background, which:
It's more protest-ware then privacy-ware though,
since you'll be overflooding them with bs data,
instead of minimizing the data collected.
You can install ClassyShark3xodus,
which can de-compile apps and scan them for trackers on the fly to figure it out yourself.
Do let us know the results :)
