+1. At the end of the day, this boils down to a more general problem of conveying state/data to the player (though maybe I should concede it now arises in the new dimension described by the author). Two examples that immediately come t

I don't buy it. To me, it'd be like hearing them say "we've never seen spam/scam phone call campaigns before!" This loses all believability, given the fact that i can reliably go out of town to a different area

+1. I recently picked up a secondhand Framework, and, after almost 15 years of holding out with Mint + MATE, berated myself for resisting change and put in an unreasonable amount of effort trying to modernize and reacclimate to Ubuntu + GNO

Want to follow up for anyone possibly taking ideas from my post (though I've already put in an order on an un-registerable Oasis) -- if I had a bigger budget, the Boox Go 7 (2nd gen) looks like the way to go.

Always had my eye on the Oasis line. There's something about the apparent ergonomics that look precisely like what I've always wanted in an e-reader but just isn't there in any other that I've seen. The Kobo Libra only a

"or use these devices in any way"? My jailbroken Kindle has been sitting in a drawer for a while, but I do go into phases where I am using it heavily for months at a time. But, what I'm really getting at is, I don't find

It's not just you. I experience the same thing. It is thoroughly maddening.

i could have been clearer about that. but yeah, even for what i paid, i was happy to immediately be off to the races designing the couple panels within their web portal and having something functional and useful to me without any real frict

Gonna piggyback here to second this and chime in to say I went with the BYOD screen linked within your link for $49 (SKU 104991005). It's definitely more barebones and probably not even as cost-effective if you're still planning o

Intel UHD. Unless they changed the default sometime in the past year or two, it seems opengl is already the default. Oddly enough, it is working for me right now on that setting. It was a painful troubleshooting process when I first install

Ah yes, I'm pretty sure developer mode is required. My banking app works for logging in to check account balances, even despite having a rooted device. Though, I have not set up any kind of payment methods, Android Pay, etc.

Another nifty utility to use in tandem is scrcpy[0]. Inside or outside of Termux, it allows you to interact with your android device in general from the comfort of your main computer/laptop over ADB. It becomes a super multiplier for T

Right! That, or I otherwise encounter some kind of asymmetry where one side, whether it is a client or server, implements/requires speaking TLS whereas the otherside isn't readily equipped to do so. I've found stunnel a godse

Yes. I remember starting this book back in college and rolling my eyes at this scene for being so campy and tacky that I just dropped the book. I came back to it just a few weeks ago out of disbelief that that is where we've arrived to

Generation 7. I realize you acknowledged the hardware age, but it's really the difference in my own workflows and experience. I'm still on a Gen 8 i7 (with 40 GB RAM, to boot) T480s. I take pretty good care of my machine, so it&#x

absolutely, i get this. i assume it's going to be a relatively small subset that go open in order to jump to an open platform. i'm not super familiar with the f-droid publishing ecosystem (or mobile publishing at all, admittedly).

Hmm, does this mean that large swaths of people publishing apps are going to flock to distribution platforms like f-droid? (Yikes)

The consumer VPN heyday has long passed. Most Mullvad endpoints i use are blocked in increasingly more places, including and especially reddit. It's the only VPN I've tried thoroughly, so i don't know how they and Proton comp

Funny enough, seeing all types of different suggestions under the sun here in the sibling posts; it's also unsurprising, since I myself can't tell where the gap is between what the Pi offers vs. what you're hoping for, as tha

I wish! The two posts since then look more to be some brief thanksgivings and a trivial correction/footnote to a work that mentions him :)

This is probably the best time as any I'll ever get to mention that Patrick Wyatt's[0] blog[1] is a gold mine of frontline, boots-on-the-ground accounts of making WarCraft II and other games. [0]: https://en.wikipedia.o

I too have heard about syncthing for the first time today but from a different submission[0] you might care to be aware of. Although, I realize Android != Kindle's OS, so I'm not sure how much concern there should be. [0]: https:

Hi, I'm not following the point being made. I skimmed through all the articles linked in GP and finding them pretty relevant to whatever decision might have been made to utilize the AI system (not at all to comment on how badly the bad

I must take a moment to second the bit about proper push-up form. Fantastic exercise you can do just about anywhere. I went an hour out of town to watch the Perseids a couple months back. I'm a bit of a gym rat, so I did sets of push-u

You might check out the Keychron K3. The 500+ looks (at least, in the photos) so much like my K3 that I thought at first it was a collab with Keychron. If you're looking at configurations that look very different aesthetically, keep in
