I have a 2015 Shield. Best device I’ve ever had, and haven’t ever had to factory reset it.

My main recommendation - in case it applies to you - is to not run any server software on it (eg. Plex). It’s a solid client device, but has never had what it takes to run server services.

I think it has plenty of life left in it, so a factory reset might be worthwhile. Also note that the drive in yours may be well past its best.

The most American post I’ve seen on Lemmy to date. 😬

Now do January 2025.

The IRL version of the used car salesman meme: “(Slaps roof) We can fit so many months inside this bad boy…”

Can’t escape Cory Doctorow’s observation that the internet is “five giant websites, each filled with screenshots of text from the other four”.

We may be away from those 5 sites, but the behaviours and content from them is very much here.

Google wants everyone to have location services permanently enabled, gotcha.
