Except for the D1 from clockworkpi, are there other pi compute modules? (Or upcoming?)

Got a regular Note10, my battery is basically dying slowly. Yes, I used battery helper tools to regularly only charge to 80%...

The new Sony 1 V will cost 1.4kEUR, not much less. Phones in general got expansive. (The Samsung Fold 4 is at 1.3 to 1.2kEUR)

I had a similar issue here in europa, where a travel agency used my photos from flickr in their catalogues.

Killed my desire to take pictures for a while and also to post them.

I got my desire to take pictures slowly back, but I still don't post anything worth while online or even share it with friends or family if I can avoid it, in fears that it somehow gets put on facebook or similiar and from there used for someone else to make money off.

basicly any fiio will do. But often a good dongle will be enough if you only got basic in ears. The amps are helpful for headphones with higher impedance rating and therefore need more oomph on the line to make them move.

Check out neutron?

The way you can't understand that, is the same way I can't understand why people would listen to Spotify.

If you allow me to recommend something to that:

Add a line about what are you thankful for. Doesn't need to be something grand or phylosophical, something banal like "I'm thankful for for the paved road that connects to my house." works best IMHO. It vastly improves with the average mood in my experience. [1]

I don't remember a tipless one and I think I've seen them all. There is also a subreddit to post and comment other peoples designs.

briar has the potential to become it, but sadly it doesn't has the popularity or the reach yet.

I don't see how that is a property of a software. If it isn't in the repos of a distro, it is a property of the distro.

As you got systemd and non systemd distros, Debian is in this a distro w/o alacrity.

and? If you want encryption you can add it yourself. GPG should work for example. And there was some apps that encrypt messages over whatsapp and co, there should work for SMS too.

I use discotel for years now, it is basically a prepaid with automated recharge from bank invoice on O2/Eplus. Thanks to being a prepaid you always got the option to switch you setup via packets every 30 days or 4 weeks (have to check that again, it was a fixed day amount and not based on calander months anymore).

So if I'm not traveling I stay with the cheapest data option for my occasionally otg stuff and on heavy travel months I choose larger packages, because I found myself using more often, for example as access point to notebook.

I also have an Kaufland (Telekom) Prepaid card, that said it would provide basic, very slow internet, for free so that text messages over chat works, bur I don't know if I got the wrong APN settings, it has problems in my second slot or it only works if you top it up regularly, but that internet and rest never really worked, even the account management over the website doesn't really work for me.

Syncthing can keep a local history for a dir with git.

I use an boox air c with bluetooth keyboard.

> The article touches upon it, but the strategy the director took was a breath of fresh air: choosing talented people, and giving them enough freedom to make something great within their area.

Or let work hard and then let them have free reign for a while. See Panty and Stockings. (Not for everyones taste.)

Yeah, w/o the engineers own desires there wouldn't be any open source community, or for a more fitting example of knowing what people want: Adblockers.

Perhaps with GOMAD (Gallon of milk a day)

but such a hard change of diet or be planned, perhaps ask your doc / trainer first

there is koreader for android. That even got a sync with calibre server feature or access web library feature if I remember right.

I prefer it on my android phone, because it is one of the few that does true black as standard.

Perhaps even manipulating the fan on purpose?

German reviewer group, didn't find any of such problems: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-MacBook-Pro-13-2022-M2-L...

I bought a game in 2020 on valves Steam that said it was macOS compatible. Did found out after starting it, that it required a dedicated GPU, which I didn't had. If I would have looked into the System Requirements I would have seen clearly that dedicated GPU was required.

They refunded my game after a short and polite message without any fuzz. I said thanks by buying a different game instead. Shame for the dev yes, but it was already an older one, that the developers moved on from years ago, so I didn't felt too bad about that.

I gone this route.

I got different markdown editors on different devices and didn't want to use a public / cloud hosted git repo for my notes.

It works fine, as long you don't get in contact with iOS.

I got many devices and often let it sync my phone when I'm at home, because I'm struggling already enough with battery lifetime.

I also got it running on one of my dedicated servers, so I got an offsite backup, with systemd you can set it on autostart after an internet connection was established, so I don't really have to manage it anymore and I only see it basically in the logs of the packages that I update.

Just use a cheat day. This will help to keep the metabolism up and also psychological, because if you got desire to eat X, just put it on the cheat day list and eat it at that day. (If you keep fulfill your desires at the cheat day regularly, u develop trust in your list, which makes it even more effective).

You shouldn't go under 1 cheat day a week. See 4 hours body book for sources.

Battery Life Lipo:

- Run it in by fully charge it 2-3 times, (deplete it with normal use)

- Normal use keep it between 20-80%, write yourself a script or something to stop charging manually/automatically

- Deplete/fully charge it quarterly or twice a year to give the bms a change to balance the cells.

Because this article is about ipad vs book, here is my personal experience with eInk readers (no Light Sony PRS-350, light layer Kobo Aura HD) and personal setup of red on black on amoled on minimal lightness Samsung Note 10:

Personally I define something to not affect my sleep, when I got trouble staying awake after one or two chapters on a workday.

PRS-350 (no light eink): Like a real book, it mostly depends on the light setup of the room. With a warm, indirect and just enough to not have trouble reading dim light, I easily get sleepy and in trouble to stay awake long enough to poweroff device and lamp. I did fall asleep with device in hand often enough, even on a plane once.

Aura HD (light layer eink, one of the first gens): Had to stop myself reading often after looking at the clock or how many chapters I read. Just one more chapter, was a real problem with it. But I didn't had any trouble falling asleep after putting it away.

Note10 kobo reader (amoled, red text on black, "background light off mode"): Need more time than PRS-350 or real book, but I definitely got trouble keeping my eyes open after a while. Sometimes I switch it off and already fall asleep before I get the chance to put the phone out of my hand.

Note10 anime reader app/websites/etc: Even without videos or other animated/interactive media, I stay awake indefinitely. If I fall into that trap, it is common for me to stay awake to at least 2am, sometimes up to 5am.

Hi cool project. Congrats on finishing.

Some questions about lua:

- What dev environment do u prefer? When I looked last time I didn't really see a dedicated IDE for lua, mostly just plugins for vim/emacs.

- Did you consider lua in nginx? (Or what are you thoughts on it).

- Did you consider moonscript? (Or what are you thoughts on it)

It also altered my handwriting with a ballpoint. Fountain pen or pencil seemed to not trigger "palm mode".

I got an Kobo Aura HD.

With each update the UI moved piece by piece from library mgmt focus, to shop focus. Personally I wasn't that much annoyed, because I mostly go by filesystem folders, but there are probably some that got shafted.

About the openness of Kobo: my device can dualboot to debian or android in contrast to the Kobo Linux. I was able to change the main storage easily, it was only a microsd card in a slot internally, which after a dd copy to a bigger card was accepted and even recognised as bigger in the UI free space screen. (I'm not talking about the external microsd reader that this device also has.) The battery is a typical lipo flat pack, which should be replacable from some arduino parts online shop.

European perspective:

- car manufacturers will start to phase out ice production

- all time low birth rates

- brexit and covid will still be major problems for politics

- worker shortage we saw in GB, will hit rest of West Europe

- major collapse of German pig farming after tonnies moving away

- rise of living costs will kill almost all of which was left of brick and mortar shops

For always useful basics I recommend the book clean coder, not code, coder, as in worker. It as also helpful to non programmers.

The book talks about what is important in the communication in the workplace, like when, why and how saying no for example.
