Is that just a model, or is there actually a display in the middle that does something?

Stop promoting these proprietary platforms, I want to run FOSS models on my own device, not pay money to some company who’s severs could go down at any time, along with the information of how to create that content.

Tell me about the FOSS models I can run on my own device, not some proprietary platform that hides their models for profit.

Yeah, but try an uncensored LLM like Mixtral 8x7B Instruct. With the right preprompt it can be quite helpful

I use Krita for raster, but Inkscape is the best for vector

I tried what I said, reinstalling to see if it still had internet. It did not. Therefore I went into a rabbithole of trying to rule out specific things of why it was working then but not now, and I still have no idea why it was working then, but I have plugged the Ethernet powerline into a new, more inconvenient, plug socket, and the wired internet is mostly working! I can still access most sites, but Firefox won’t connect to addons.mozilla.com or accounts.firefox.com. Idk if that’s a Firefox issues or a network issue, but it’s mostly working now, which is great!

This doesn’t seem to be a problem in the UK. I’ve been pirating for years and never even received a letter from my ISP.

Fairphone 5 isn’t old. It’s a fairly recent, midrange phone

Linux phones do exist, I was saying that you could use Waydroid on those devices (although you can also use it on Linux Desktop), such as postmarketOS on eg a Fairphone 5.

You can already, Waydroid exists

Hmm. One way to check multiple options at once is to try the install again and see it internet is still present when installing the OS, as it was before. If it is, that would rule out a hardware issue.

Why is that? I applied the change, and restarted the Ethernet connection, but I still don’t have internet

Here are the network settings

I tried changing the IP in manual settings, I’m not sure how I ping an IP, I assume it’s a command that I don’t know, but as the screenshots show, accessing a website didn’t work. I saw an IP in the startup menu and tried that but it didn’t seem to work

Did you want a specific part of network settings, or is this helpful?

I didn’t set it up; another member of my household did

How do I find that? Is it written on the router somewhere, or is there a command to run to find it?

It’s not doing what it was before now, now it’s just showing the ‘activation of network connection failed’ error. But before when I ran the up command it had the connected sign, and said it was connected in the GUI, but when I tried accessing any website it wasn’t able to, and I don’t have any firewall installed, so I assumed that the connection wasn’t working.

The result for ip address show ens6f1 is now the same as before

62.49.7.152 is my public IP, if that’s what you mean. How do I use that information, other than allowing others to know my approximate location?

The first time I tried it it had the connected icon but no actual network connection, the second time it didn’t do anything
