Ok thats really cool. Can we get some screenshots in the README.md though?

Can we get some screenshots uploaded to the README.md?

I’m with you on that one

Open source devs that suck are worse than non- open source devs that are actually into their project!

Non-open source devs suck by virtue of being closed source, period. It doesn’t matter how good their project is, if it’s closed it goes in the trash.

Why would you call closed source client apps “open”?

Do note though that MeshCore is proprietary and has a licensing cost to unlock all of its features whereas Meshtastic is open source and free as in freedom.

Probably best to skip it if you can’t stomach that sort of thing, but if you can handle the fucked up bits, its a very well written short story.

My guess is that because English is such a mish-mash of other languages and has a lot of contradictory rules, the double-o in loose is how most people would guess the way to spell the “o” sound in lose. To people who haven’t been told otherwise, lose probably sounds similar to hose or dose in their heads and “oo” looks more correct despite being wrong.

In the wise words of Sugi: “Not why; memorize”

Its amazing how much of a problem lose vs loose has become lately. But yes, OP should change it to “loses.”

Sometimes. Most times they buy them to gut them for their patents. Fitbit and Pebble both probably had some patents that Google really wanted.

This happens to me when I run games sometimes in 4k at max settings, with a 7900XTX. So far I have not found anything that prevents it, and I’m starting to suspect my power supply or my house’s wiring might be the issue. It almost seems like a voltage sag.

I dunno if you know this but SMS support got removed from Signal a few years ago

Its still better than any new chat protocol thats been made in the last decade. You’ll have to pry my family XMPP server out of my cold dead hands.

Great! Now I can listen to my PinePods on my PineBuds which I store in my PinePod that they came with.

Browser+jellyfin is easy then, but again you need to make sure you’re not using google play services. That shit calls home like crazy.

With how KDE treats Plasma and their whole dev philosophy of “If we don’t use/like something, than neither will you”

How does anyone confuse the KDE team for the Gnome foundation? How did you manage to pull that off?

Lol. Lmao even.

If it has google play services on it, at all, there is absolutely no privacy.

If you can manage to stick to an F-droid+Aurora+Obtainium setup (maybe with IzzyOndroid enabled in F-droid), you can probably pull off privacy, but in my experience there are at least three major streaming services ive encountered that refuse to run if Google Play Services aren’t running and you can’t pass the SafetyNet authenticity/security check thing (which raspberry pi is missing the firmware and hardware to be able to support.) Netflix being the biggest of them, I think Disney Plus has issues, and it’s been a while since I tried but either crunchyroll or hbo Max gave me a hard time.

That’s what I do. I have a bunch of .desktop files that just open Firefox in kiosk mode to whichever website I want, and a bunch of .PNG files to make them look like apps. I installed them system-wide.

I’m a pretty big KDE Stan but I decided to give Gnome a go since Plasma Bigscreen is virtually impossible to install for a normal user at the moment. Its not perfect but it gets the job done, and I love the basic parental controls it has. Still absolutely awful in terms of settings though.

An Airmouse is a gamechanger.

Its a TV-remote-style device that works like a Wii remote to control the mouse, usually has a keyboard on the backside, and connects to a USB 2.4ghz or Bluetooth receiver depending on the model you get.

I got a $20 Rii and a $10 other brand one to try out. Both are fine. I like the buttons on the Rii better but it has no backlight which sucks because I’m usually watching TV in bed at 9pm. The $10 one’s keyboard also responds faster so I can actually speed type.

I wish we would all start switching over to JSON for configuration files. It’s so much easier to parse, and you can’t screw it up with too many spaces or not enough.
