“change plans to watch the movie”? As in, i planned to watch it, but now I won’t?

A simple calculator will also beat it at math.

I feel the same about youtube. I pay for premium, but sometimes creators bake in their own ads. I wish youtube would pay creators enough so they wouldn’t have to do it.

You also support big tech by giving them traffic and watching the ads. The only way to not support them is to not use it.

Podcast ads are easy to skip. Still, i pay subscription to my favourite podcast network to support them, and it’s more convenient not having to skip.

I only had a problem with it once, but having no experience with it really confused me.

I was mounting a directory to a docker container and i kept getting permission errors. The errors were not descriptive at all and really confused me as i already had sudo privileges and wasn’t expecting any problems with permission.

Something tells me the companies sabotaged the smaller phones so they can charge more for the giant “pro” devices.

I opted for the smaller pixel 9pro last year because i didn’t have to compromise (it has the same specs as 9pro xl). My previous phone was 7 pro, it was the bigger model and if i went for the smaller 7 model, I’d have to forego the telephone camera.

I really like the smaller 9pro over my previous 7pro phablet. The size ia more manageable, although it’s probably still larger than the early smartphones, but since we moved to touchscreena, larger screens are necessary for typing. The larger size also houses bigger battery necessary to power the display whose resolution has gone way up over the years.

So, Bluetooth?

Isn’t it true of all AI technologies? What makes DeepSeek unique in this context?

If you’re buying on ebay and use PayPal, PayPal provides the consumer protection. That’s been my experience anyway.

“adding a feature” = “forcing”

The profile image is still there, right beside the gemini button, and you can still swipe on it.

You mean you still need a dongle for the dongle?

Too bad full size usb ports have mostly disappeared from laptops, so Bluetooth is the only way. Unless they started making usb C dongles?

Pinephone looks great and the keyboard case seems very ergonomic. Fo you use it as your daily driver?

How do you install utilities like kubectl and azure CLI on Android?

I keep saying the same about the iPhone but they keep making new ones

With 640x480 screen i doubt it’ll be used for web browsing, unless you use lynx. Firefox in a pinch, but my guess is this will appeal mostly to Linux terminal users.

Full-size usb, Ethernet and keyboard mean you can use it as a Linux computer, install arbitrary debian packages, run shell scripts, python scripts, and you don’t need any dongles. This is the differential factor. You can’t do the same on a smartphone, and it’s not supposed to be a smartphone. Why would you need a separate sim card when you can simply tether Internet from your phone?

I get that this device isn’t for you, but there are people who don’t want to write and maintain apps through apps stores and simply want to copy simple scripts into a small device they can have with them. It’s a niche market and good for them for trying to fill that niche.

I wonder what they use for charging port if not usb c…

Except for 🍎

Are they leaving, or just expanding?
