Need a phone for my grandma

Need a phone for my grandma - Lemmy.world

My grandma’s Samsung J320 just bit the dust. So we need a replacement. Her eyesight is pretty poor, so the screen doesn’t need to be anything special. Her hearing is even worse, so the speaker needs to not suck. She’s a monster who treats her phones very roughly, and is prone to losing them. So the thing needs to be on the cheaper side of things so we don’t feel too sad when it inevitably gets destroyed or lost. I know about those special “old people phones” with beefed up speakers and hearing aid integrations and custom UIs and whatnots, but they’re unfortunately out of the question because none of them are available where we live and import fees are brutal.

Dell display manager or substitute on Linux?

Dell display manager or substitute on Linux? - Lemmy.world

Hello, I’ve just recently unpacked my new Dell P3421W monitor. I was like 80% sure there would be no Linux support for the proprietary piece of software that manages the monitor’s features, because that sorta stuff is hardly ever built for Linux for some fucked up reason, but I figured I could use my macbook (for which there actually is support) or the monitor’s own nipple menu to do stuff. Turns out the macbook version does not work properly on Apple silicon, and the nipple menu doesn’t have all the things. I know it’s a long shot, since google hasn’t helped much, but would anyone here know if there’s a way to go about it? Maybe there are existing tools?
