At least Google is adhering to its own policies this time.

Dan seems to have trouble sticking with a single project. Sometimes it feels like he announces some new thing every week that never gets finished.

I was pleasantly surprised to see Google Messages automatically blocks most political spam now. I’ve only gotten a few that slipped through in the past few months.

The only FE that had a headphone jack was the Note FE, and that was in 2017. Every other FE phone has just been a cheaper S series option.

The Note FE was also just a rebranded Note7 with a smaller battery.

I guess since they put a link to the license that you could go to on another computer, they probably have their bases covered.

I wonder what the legal implications here are, if anything. It feels like Apple probably shouldn’t have made the “agree” button clickable if the license fails to load.

Projectivy is great. Some bugs here and there, but overall I love the much simpler UI and that I can actually keep my “continue watching” row at the top.

It’d be cool if Mozilla could just stick with one thing for more than a couple months. Even if that thing is terrible. Right now it’s like some physical embodiment of ADHD is running the company.

The screen would get smashed immediately.

Techno might be unknown, because that’s a genre of music, but I’ve definitely seen the Tecno name around.

That’s not how it was done before, though. It wouldn’t download update A, start installing A, then trigger downloading update B while A was installing. A would have to finish installing before B could even start downloading.

Especially for smaller updates, the overhead of the network handshaking to start the download can actually make doing 3/4 downloads at once faster than sequencing them. For larger updates, it matters less, but it’s not a negative.

You can still use an app while the update is downloading. You only can’t while the update is installing, and installations still have to happen sequentially (limitation of Android). It only really matters if you want to specifically use an update right away, but then you can just manually trigger the update for just that app.

Not to defend the mega corporation, but companies file patents for ridiculous things all the time that never end up actually being made or used.

I don’t even want to use EGS on Windows. Steam may be clunky, but Epic is unusably slow.

I have a 4GB Raspberry Pi 5 running Home Assistant and it’s doing well.

For comparison, the Pi has a 4-core A76 processor while the CM3588 has 4 A76 cores plus another 4 A55 cores. I think it’ll do fine.

So you would say they’re comparable then? Maybe even analogous?

Honestly this is pretty funny. As long as they didn’t remove the dog version of crack from these, 25% off sounds good too.

A lot of these scam operations are effectively staffed by slaves.

The last time I looked into HarmonyOS, it was an intentionally vague umbrella name for a family of operating systems and kernels. On phones and tablets, HarmonyOS was a fork of Android 10 (this was when 13 was new). On embedded devices, it was a Linux kernel fork. There were supposedly some unifying features and APIs between them, but the documentation felt very much like Huawei didn’t actually want you to know what HarmonyOS is.
