Only if there are multiple options. If there is 1 option, it does not. At least on my store. You can only really tell if it says

"Up to # MB" - flatpak

Or just " # MB" - deb

Hopefully it tells you if you are installing a deb or a flatpak app more clearly. I can only tell by the size in the current pop shop.

Heard that galaxy buds are pretty balance when it comes to sound. They also have a pink color....I think.

Try hitting share on the browser and then choose Aurora store under action. Pops up for me.

Noted, I'm on android 14.

 

After seeing the post showing the FUTO voice input app, I was wondering if there was anything equivalent for voice synthesis.

Currently I am using google speech synthesis with the network disconnected and in offline mode but is there an open source app that will do the same job?

Not a game developer but I have a hunch that its for displaying videos within the game. Like a cut scene.

I don't windows as much anymore, but I think if you right click the file and hit 'Open with', you can set a different program as default.

In a high level, you are correct that Ubuntu is a standalone OS like Fedora. Other distributions have used the background packages that make up Ubuntu to form their own OS with changes here and there. It is similar to how Ubuntu is built on top of Debian.

Sure others can explain this better.

Since you are more familiar with Windows, Linux Mint may be a good start. Can also try PopOS for a different desktop layout, more similar to Mac. These are Ubuntu based systems. Can also give Fedora a try, but may require a bit more of a learning curve. There is also Nobora for a more gaming oriented version of fedora. Try out the live previews before installing to make sure your system works properly.

Not sure if this is something that will help but the site Linux Journey might help you learn how to use and understand Linux more. This is more the core stuff and command line oriented.

For easier transition, start using programs that are available on both systems so you don't have to jump in cold turkey, if that may be too much. When looking for programs on Linux, always use the provided store first to search. Since you are a programmer, you are aware that there will always be multiple ways to do the same thing, web searching is your friend, just make sure you are searching for the right based system, in the examples above, Fedora or Ubuntu. For programming you are going to enjoy Linux more than windows :).

Remember this is a journey and will take time. Have fun!

You either connect a mic via Bluetooth or wired headset.

From my experience, its overall good. Its basically stock android, meaning no google smart features and apps by default, with more control over apps and google services. But for caution, some apps may break. You will have to mess around with the app settings to fix them. Also some apps will not work such as the google wallet app due to the OS not being acknowledged as official by google.

In short, its a more security focused OS that may require more involvement in configuration.

Pretty much just been playing Risk of Rain Returns. Fun game but gets pretty hard.

Dead space. The remake was just as good as the original but with updated graphics and mechanics.
