of course, on stock android with gms, verizon hotspot does not work at all (says to purchase it and blocks you)

on calyx it used to work fine and i would get around their throttling using powertunnel (a tool that obfuscates traffic)

recently i have had issues though:

  • hotspots have no internet access
  • using powertunnel also causes me to have no internet access

another thing is i have noticed some other blockings:

  • orbot is no longer working for me
  • riseupvpn is no longer working for me
  • all ooni probe tests fail

you can use iwctl

example:

list interfaces (usually wlan0)

$ ip link

enter iwctl:

$ iwctl

rescan:

$ station [interface] scan

connect:

$ station [interface] connect [ssid]

list networks:

$ station [interface] get-networks

exit:

$ exit

i can do it on about 15 minutes without the wiki for a fairly basic install

and then about 30 minutes to set up sway how i want, install common software i like, etc

but for a more complex setup it will take longer and i will need to check the wiki

don't they have issues with randomly getting stuck in edl?

the chromebook keyboard layout is stupid, especially if you like tiling wms

they removed capslock and moved super to where it would normally be, and renamed it to "search"

they put nonsensical function keys that don't exist like "refresh" and "fullscreen"

and then the keys are mushy too

I tried florisboard but their swipe typing isn't as good as heliboard

you are probably thinking of computrace, a rootkit installed by sysadmins that lives in the bios and can install backdoors, brick the computer, and create police reports. if it's an old thinkpad chances are the subscriptions are probably expired and it will automatically deactivate after about 15 minutes on wifi on windows.
