Actually, it's GNU/unkempt, bearded man

udon ,

Thank you for your service.

It's also about control where you're being rained on. The shower gives you targeted rain, so you can wash yourself with one hand while eating a (dry) pizza with the other.

Bro, but what about the credit card receipt for porno VR games, signed by Siegfried? What about the warranty card for the porno VR games, filled out by Siegfried? What about the book "Porno VR Games and Me (This Sort of Thing is my Bag, Baby!)" by Siegfried?

The whole Musk takeover is much less relevant (in the sense of interesting) for people outside the western context. I asked a few friends in Japan why they still use Twitter, but they just don't care about the platform and ownership as long as they can still interact with their friends there. Curious how the botification will affect that over time, though.

My favorite example at the moment, 10y/o Youtube gold with less than 3000 views. One of those comments from 2021

udon OP ,

Thanks, as I said, I tried all the f-buttons already, multiple times, with no success. F10 seems to be the one, but it didn't work on multiple tries. I'm heading to the office later today where I have different keyboards and displays to try it with.

Another thing I just found on a reddit post was that the USB stick should be no larger than 4GB. Even if that didn't cause this problem, I'll get a small USB stick on the way as well, just in case.

So someone at Duke University gets paid to make memes?

So, the solution is to disable the adblocker? Not gonna happen

I'm quite optimistic about a usable Linux phone in the near future, maybe 5 years from now or so. When smartphones were a new thing, it was really hard for open source projects without a major company backing them to keep up with all the new developments. Hence all the projects that died out. But innovation on smartphones has basically come to a halt these days. Sure, your phone can get a little bit faster and have round displays now, but nobody cares anymore. Nothing of all that is essential. So, give it some time, we'll get there.

udon ,

Yes, but that's exactly my point. The need for hardware support shrinks if the hardware doesn't change every few months. A chip from a few years ago is still very fine. That was not the case in 2009.

Quite a naive (and also stereotypically American) perspective, really. Just ignoring major parts of the economy, like the music, film, book publishing industries etc. They are all based on people doing anything that's not "legit" according to this guy. Also a smell of a very naive concept of "legit science" lurks behind this. Clearly someone who has no clue about how science works.

udon ,

What is legit science?

Same here, they lost me after fp1 which didn't receive security updates anymore. FP2 had this weird rubber band that got loose quickly with everyone I know who had one. Stopped following after that.

udon ,

Well, with fp1 specifically Google was not the main culprit. The phone used a chip (I think by mediatek?) and the producer didn't publish the drivers. The Fairphone team promised to reverse engineer that for a while and at some point just said they won't do it after all. That was the reason you couldn't install other images on it, not cpu speed

udon ,

Yeah, but I'm not convinced by their approach anymore as a sustainable solution. Luckily the phone feature race has mostly come to a halt, so there is a chance now for free OS options to come up (which is what we're seeing at the moment).

The part about tracking where the material comes from us good in principle, but mostly as a proof of concept so regulators can increase pressure on big manufacturers (if Fairphone can do it, apple/Samsung should also be able to). But regulators don't regulate, unfortunately

The problem with most rss readers IMHO is that they lack a decent filter function. ttrss had great filters, but I stopped using it when they switched their dev process (I think to docker at the time, which I couldn't use with my hoster). Now using rss guard, not too happy but surviving.

RSS is great, but often contains a lot of noise. If you can filter only what you care about, great. Otherwise it's just information overload.

Actually the Arch penguins jump happily on their own
