"this will force the average user to upgrade their phones" A lot of phones don't receive any upgrades after 1 or 2 years... I wish that Google would have forced vendors to implement a proper hardware abstraction (uefi…
2 questions : * How can it can do 2-side printing ? (on a normal printer, you may print all the odd pages, turn the whole thing, and print all the even pages) * Won't the cutter experience some wear ?
You might want to bring a 100 $ old Lenovo such as x200 (ideally with Libreboot, to justify youself) Or you may go further and bring a 30 $ used/old laptop with 1G ram and a stipped-down Linux such as Alpine+fluxbox.…
> Well… you can run android without google? You can only run LineageOS on smartphones that allow unlocking the bootloader (which is more and more rare), and properly release the kernel source-code (many still don't,…
Can anyone explain me what went wrong with http://www.cacert.org/ and why they are not supported by any major browser ?
The algorithm/method of vote determines a large part of the political landscape (and in the US, only 2 significant political parties can realistically exist. People have to choose between those 2 and lot choose to…
You can connect to 4G with your root-enabled Linux PC and a USB dongle or minipci module. Carriers don't care about your application processor, they only care about the baseband. In the case of a smartphone, you can…
IMO code generated by AI (which was trained on a lot of copyleft codebases) ought to be systematically on an open-source copyleft license.
It's not only the issue of SoC modems but about the whole integration (RFIC, LNA/PA, RF switches, antennas...). The more bands you integrate, the more difficult it becomes (or with compromises such as worse performance…
Apart from the comparison with Protobuf, how does it compare to flatbuffers, capnproto, messagepack, jsonbinpack... ?
Could Anthropic consider to relocate in Europe ? ;)
Actually the GSM spec existed in 1993 :)
More and more things require a Google-certified Android phone (and will not work with jailbroken/rooted phones, unlocked bootloader, and so one : banking apps of course, but also medical apps (e.g. Doctolib in France),…
Speaking about "batteries included" LuaJIT, people might be interested in https://franko.github.io/gsl-shell
I am not native english so maybe it's just me, but I think the title is misleading because it suggests that Debian could be struggling with a situation where developers would massively drift away (my first reaction was…
720p is OK for me and I also almost don't notice. 480p is really noticeable (and totally unacceptable when you pay for a subscription...).
> All major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave) have native Linux builds. Full support. No compromises. Full support ? I thought that the DRM were not the same (e.g. Disney+ and Amazon Prime limited to 480p on Linux…
That's great ! FWIW I generated a small web app (I am just starting to experiment with Claude and Devstral and that seemed a good exercise :), and put it online in case it would be useful https://meteo.karteum.ovh (e.g.…

Possibly, but I don't see why those people would buy a new MacBook rather than a used 100$ laptop (which would be both better for their finances but also for the planet...)
I have happily used nanokvm (https://wiki.sipeed.com/hardware/en/kvm/NanoKVM_Pro/introduc... ). (N.b. unfortunately the ATX board cannot be ordered independently, so be sure to order the "nanokvm-full" package)
Not entirely sure, but I heard that the "Pixel 911 bug" (e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37714579) could be related to an IMS bug. Since operators are liable with regards to safety calls, maybe it explains why…
I wish that the diff/patch would be able to better take into account moved data (not only as deletion+add but with with a proper semantic indicating the moved block). This would both lead to smaller and more readable…
If using a VPN service is deemed unsafe, it's still possible to book your own VM or server with a full root access, and then setup your own openvpn/wireguard connection.
I don't fully understand: aren't gradle and aapt2 open-source ? If you want to build buildroot or openwrt, the first thing it will do is compiling your own toolchain (rather than reusing the one from your distro) so…
