Hey Lineagefags, how has your "new" OS been treating you? Does OTA work for you?

Perfectly fine. And if the OTA doesn't work, just fish the downloaded ROM package from TWRP in /data/data/org.lineageos.updater/app_updates
I've been reading reports of all kinds of shit broken (most likely due to tons of duct taped root stuff, idiotic mods or extreme-edition-black kernels done by your average Pajeet) but

So I'm building a custom PC and the idea was to build a laptop screen into the side so it could be used on-the-go but still have all the power of a desktop. However the screen I have is 40pin eDP and the only converter boards I can find are limited to 30pin.
I'd really like to have 4k and as large of a screen as possible. The screen I have is 3840×2160 but I need some way of converting from the DisplayPort output of my graphics card.
Pic related, it's my screen.
Any and all help is vastly appreciated.

Not possible. The only converters are for 30 pin as you said.
Get a 1080p screen and stop making things difficult for yourself.
>>
;-; i wish that was possible
>>
>>58991059
I was worried that was the case. There's a demand for this kind of converter board though, so I was hoping SOMEONE made one.

Meme hardware aside, the Yoga Book looks pretty comfy and useful as a full-range productivity notebook. The comparable surface book is double the price, and from what I understand not that great. What are /g/'s thoughts on the Yoga Book?

it depends on your main focus, really
I do a lot of writing, because I translate stuff, and this keyboard is pretty useless and specs are too weak even for translation-dedicated software.
The screen is all wobbly
As a novelty tablet with cool looks and features - ok
As a complete laptop substitute - definitely nope

for someone who would be using windows remote desktop at absolute maximum: is it doable?

Dell xps 15 (1050)
Surface Book (965m now, but maybe the update will get a 1050 or 1050ti)
Razer Blade with a sticker covering the logo (1060)

What are some advanced git commands you're using?
For example:git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter

I got a new phone two weeks ago and there are some apps I want for my phone, but I don't want to set up my phone with a google account. So that means I can't get anything from the google play store and will have to get them from other sources.
How reputable is apkpure? Are there any other good, reputable places to get apk files?

I second this question. I know only of apkpure and apkmirror and I am unsure if they are good.
>>
>>58989883
try en.uptodown.com
it's neatly categorised like the playstore but actually an apk repository, so you will get the *.apk files
>>
>>58990082
Thank you for the suggestion, but the most important question is whether or not it's safe.
