Didn’t Google just fuck with them by making it really hard to developed graphene for pixel 10? If graphene os depends on the aging fleet of pixel 9s and older, they’re a few years away from being screwed too.

There were trends to switch to dumbphones last year, retro media like vinyl, they always came with a wave of content. Pretty sure video essays about someone using a dumbphone while carrying a camera around town are just doing it for content. This one wouldn’t be any different.

Let me guess. They don’t use a laptop, but brag about it endlessly on tiktok with a holier-than-thou attitude? It’s just content farming then.

Not at all. It’s really hard to live without the practical features of a smartphone, like web browsing and maps. What I need is privacy, not to throw it all away for a dumbphone.

I believe a lot of the benefits you claim dumbphones provide are all caused by abandoning social media. There’s nothing wrong with technology, it’s just social media. You don’t need to use a dumbphone just to escape social media.

According to Japanese sources Mainichi, it is indeed treated waste water one one side and desalination brine on the other. Both the waste water and brine are meant to be dumped anyway, and it’s also harmful to sea life to dump brine directly. Treated waste water isn’t saline, so is perfect for diluting the brine. Might as well get some free power out of it.

Can Nintendo request Google revoke authorization for emulator developers? Or publishers requesting revoking any of the hugely popular manga aggregator apps. Or maybe they’ll just outright refuse them from the start, like they will with revanced.

I’ve also used nixos but not arch. Is the AUR also volunteer maintained? How do they differ?

Arch linux. Hmm. Could it be because of the users? Lately arch linux has become the most popular distro for people trying linux for the first time. Are they all congregating on duckstation’s github to cry about it?

Only one node can be transmitting at once, or signals can be lost, so nodes automatic hold back until the channel is clear. Meshtastic seems reliant on having as little traffic as possible, with the way ot works right now, it can easily be overwhelmed.

Meshtastic can’t even keep more than a few hundred nodes in memory…

Start with the basics of programming. Game dev is a specialization, and it can wait until after you’ve learned the basics.

Feel free to pick any language to start with. Your first language is just a medium for learning basic programming concepts, you’ll eventually migrate elsewhere. Or not. Programming concepts are your real skills, language is just a language. Like Japanese engineer or Italian engineer, engineering is the real skill and language is just a language.

Books walk you through everything. You can proceed through the chapters at your own pace. They’re free if you borrow them from the library.

I always rename my branch to main. Because it’s shorter? That’s the extent of my reasoning. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

I’ve watched anime for decades at this point, but nope. I can pick out words here and there, but it would severely limit my enjoyment of anime. Subtitles allow my brain to skip most of the hard work when it comes to learning a language, I don’t believe it will get better even if this goes on for another decade.

I also feel if I suffered through a couple of months of non-subtitled watching and put in the effort to process, understand and memorize what I’m hearing, it might eventually get better. But as long as I have access to subtitles, I don’t do any of that…

I mean, come on. We shit on redditors, but even redditors won’t stand for getting their iris’s scanned just to use the site…

In Singapore, lots of boomers are downloading scam apps from facebook lured by promises of discounts and free gifts, handing out accessibility privileges, and they’ll even argue vehemently against loved ones and bank staff when confronted. When it all inevitably blows up, they blame absolutely everyone except themselves, including praising Apple for some reason.

Being the largest voting block, they managed to get banks responsible for reimbursing their losses and there was even an idea floated of getting everyone to contribute to a shitty scam insurance fund. Many major banking apps are paranoid af and block usage from simple things like usb debugging turned on.

Absolutely stupidity. And there’s nothing we can do about it when the politicians love them so much.

Do you know if any tachi forks have bulk migration? I’m on aniyomi and it only support migrating individual titles. Given entire manga sites can collapse overnight, bulk migration is becoming an important feature.

NixOS consist of a bunch of options that you define using the nix programming language. Since it’s a programming language, everything is well defined and organised into single place.

Technically, someone could build a GUI configuration editor with sane defaults and clearly organised pages of settings, which generates a configuration for you. This could immediately change NixOS from the most tedious to a relatively easy to use distro.

They do, several third party options and of course the Microsoft store too. It’s the users who are stuck in their old ways, which ironically is the harder way. Weird.

He has a degree in industrial engineering according to Wikipedia, logical thinking should come naturally to him. My high school decades ago teaches logic gates for it’s computer literacy curriculum. He might not be a programmer, but probably has exposure to these topics in general education.

I mean no offence to you. But education departments these days assume “kids have phones and iPads and must be computer geniuses” and stop teaching general computer courses. That’s a problem.

At this point, I’m wondering if I should set up a shell company of some kind, just to buy commercial digital signage TVs. They require registering with a company just to be allowed to buy them.
