And yet I bet you would have a hard time spending a day without it. Obviously interacting to this comment would also use the Web.

As replied in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50394137 that's not the trend I see, namely less physical offices also.

I don't know where you live but a lot of banks do not have physical offices anymore and when they do it is to talk about a large loan, not to do daily operations anymore.

Is there a list of banks per country that do not, and never will, require Big Tech devices to do basic actions with a bank account?

Feels like we have enough motivated and skill people to do and maintain that.

Just to be this pedantic, every single awesome repo was at some point 6h old, and hopefully they were awesome already.

Well "starting MSRP of $1,599." I'll stick to my 2nd hand Pixel 8 that I bought, for GrapheneOS long term support, for 1/10th of that price.

No doubt it's a way WAY better device, really, but I don't see where I would actually need that. I happily toss the one I have around and don't even care if it gets stolen or lost one day, different preference.

I'm genuinely curious what's the Venn diagram here because I feel a lot of embedded systems precisely have one condition but not the other, e.g. password yes but not necessarily multiple accounts, e.g root only, while using musl. Namely almost all for almost all, but if only one is not overlapping another then it's actually very few.

2026, re-inventing APIs with 3 levels more indirection \_(ツ)_/ and calling it "innovative"

Yeah... sorry but that's not a technical problem, that's a business problem.

Everybody wants a $1 Website, avoid security updates, pay nothing for maintenance, and done yesterday.

It has nothing to do with AI or a specific language or stack. As long as cost cutting will be the culture, driven by the economical model of competition, then we will accumulate technical debt BECAUSE it is the strategy.

Hi, when will you take orders from EU to EU and what's the smallest batch size? Single prototype board or more?

Nice, I have sth similar on my wiki, namely random binary string overlaying the page with the text "If you can read this text (opacity=0.41) if means the page has not been edited for a long time. Consequently the information it holds might be deprecated or no longer represent the opinion of this author." to clarify.

So far the closest I've seen is the #dev-chat on the Steam Frame Discord server https://discord.com/channels/1438213354618617908/15540532718... but it's mostly about software dev for, not productivity, including software dev in general, more broadly.

I'm not questioning what they invented, I'm highlighting their business model, how they actually make money.

Total or Shell use a lot of state of the art technology to mine, they are still oil companies.

I do care still, there are dozens of us, dozens!

Neat, would also make for a nice Zim (offline Wikipedia and other websites) plugin/view.

They definitely exist and I'm actually quite convinced they are valuable... but it's a bit like calling Google a technology company because they sell millions Pixel phones and billions in GCP while >90% of their revenue is still advertisement (please don't quote me on the numbers they are surely incorrect, it's to illustrate the idea).

I'm making a provocative shortcut.

McKinsey does not offer actual strategical advice, they offer scapegoats and insurance that when shits does hit the fan, the client will not be the one sent to prison.

The glossy magazines read by C-suite is the slick marketing part, not the actual product.

I suggest you present a SplinterCon in Stockholm in December. It is, very sadly, an important situation to explain.

want to join a productivity on Frame Discord or Matrix channel to discuss more what's been tried and identify where the gaps still are?

Yes, a lot of versions but not all unfortunately, see e.g. https://github.com/Lumince/singularity with for Q3 52433670036000520 as latest vulnerable firmware.

I posted https://video.benetou.fr/w/wUfpqnvEoe7sfQvu8BAyph and https://video.benetou.fr/w/6KbGB7YY4oqkjPH4HJYUab just yesterday so... yes ;)

Suggestions and ideas welcomed.

FWIW on pairing keyboard I also tinkered with https://mastodon.pirateparty.be/@utopiah/117178674206706009 specifically for this setup.

Depends on your needs obviously :

- cheap Android that can potentially be rooted : Quest 3

- deep into the Apple ecosystem and not a hardcore gamer : Vision Pro

- gamer and Linux tinkerer or just want an open device : Steam Frame

The upcoming Meta headset is also quite nice possibly for remote work but again it's Android and from Meta.

It's a plutocracy. Maybe it wasn't obvious until now but the current administration is quite clear about when one is invited to buy a dinner with the commander-in-chief by donating to his crypto coin.

> bit nervous about putting it out there before I'm sure that ...

At the risk of being presumptuous I believe that's the wrong way of looking at it. The point isn't to show the entire World that everything you did is perfect (because it's not, for anyone) but rather to grow from potential collaborations, even if only just discussions in issues. It is a humbling process to show how something was built but with a positive crowd it is definitely leading to growth!

Neat, would be great to have it in WebXR with hand tracking, imagining 2 modes :

- AR where the machine can be put on your desk, next to documents

- VR where the machine is in context, e.g. a 3D model of German Naval Signals HQ in Guernsey, eventually stepping back to a broader context.

I think it's true but only in equitable societies.

Putin or Trump are totally isolated from economical and political consequences so they have no problem severing ties. If there are genuine co-dependencies, including for the leaders, they it's much harder to break peace.

I imagine the ideological aspect is the deeper motivation but it only matters with the right circumstances.

Firefox on Linux doesn't support WebGPU https://caniuse.com/webgpu should enable via a flag.

Adding a warning about it could help.

I'd check https://github.com/Josh-writes/microslate-firmware/ for the xteink as it is less focused on only reading, but keep in mind it's a screen only, so not touch. Buttons though are pretty good so enough for tick items on a list IMHO.
