So… is it an obsession to want to be at least <100? Asking for myself. Send help :D

I get consistently better results on steamdeck vs PC due to lower controller latency.

Before you start establishing a working group to assess the impact of creating a commitee to judge the effect of switching to replacable cells, what if…

What if the companies just packed a few universal rechargable cells with their product? I meam the charging circuit is already a part of the design.

So the google can spy on anyone’s phone calls without a consent (google screening), but if you want to record your own phone calls, there needs to be a mandatory warning. Makes total sense :D

edit: but at least this enables automatic call recording, not just a button, plus automatic deletion of old recordings. This is actually pretty useful.

I’ve patiently waited until the flashing guide for the roborock s8 was out, went to buy the s8 pro ultra, just to discover valetudo has dropped the support, because appearently a different version of the same robot was silently released, that would’ve been turned into a brick if I tried the installation procedure.

Now I have a dumb robot. It does like 95% of what I expect it to do, but I might at least solder an ep32 to the top buttons so that scheduling through the home assistant would be possible

That sounds like a fancy speak for a Trusted Platform Module. Isn’t some kind of TPM mandatory to obtain a google certification for a new device?

The dawn of the 4G will forever be remembered as the time our civilization forgot how to make phones that can make phone calls. I feel embarrassed every time I randomly think about VoLTE.

people have stories how the dev is an ass

If an opensource project has an author who’s not a jerk, that’s when you get suspicious!

I once put my homelab rack outside of my apartment, in the hall. Then used it to catch a bastard who kept stealing my bike light, and later tried to snatch the whole bike.

you’re not going to have much luck convincing anyone.

Oh boy, how I wish you were right.

No way, I thought the thrill of browsing sketchy appstores to find the other half of the ACR phone was part of the fun.

For those out of the loop - ACR phone is a dialer app that does call recording. It’s distributed through the play store, but without the call recording part, because that would be against the ToS. Once installed, it instructs you to go find the other app that serves as an accessibility module with access to the microphone. And by that I mean ONLY your microphone. The other side of the call is recorded only as an echo of the speaker caught by your own mic.

Can only say a person who has never used meshtastic.

The more shocking is that one guy who KNOWS it’s sqlite, but ain’t afraid to admit it!

You should apply for a marketing position in broadcom. The people responsible for the vmware software suite just love to do stunts like this.

Piping scripts directly to bash is a security risk

Nobody has ever explained why. What is the difference between executing a script directly from curl, and adding a repository which downloads a package which contains a script.

This might also be the beginning of android.

So far, people have been OK with modifying the existing phones to fit their needs. We’re slowly approaching the critical inconvenience point beyond which it might be easier to buy OEM parts and start assembling un-googled phones.

I record all my phone calls. It allows me to pretend not to forget all the names, dates, places and other important details we just talked about with the other person as soon as the call ends.

This post has less upvotes in the politics community, where it belongs, than here. Why?

A favor is just a form of debt, and debt is money. It does not matter whether it’s written down on paper, or just remembered.
