was going to ask op why he was insisting but now i’m more curious: why are you still here? xD

i mean fair for the older generation, but i’m assuming most people on here would be under 40?

also is anyone actually pro russia left now? worst divide is probably wether they support palestine or stay quiet afaik?

ngl i’m always miffed when people don’t even consider the actual left (you know, the party that’s literally called that and now shitty sarah has also left!) as an option and use it as an excuse to vote in some other corpo tool ):

errm, no thank you mr mobilek? xD

lol, literally got fwded two tweets by seperate anthropic employees that copypasta-d each other’s “sincere personal message” (both accenting how it’s “not a marketing stunt!”)… how dumb is this gonna get before it finally blows over?

x4 has backlight, the new ones (v5? x4.5?) dropped it again for some reason? i got an original for myself and the backlight one for my wife actually :D

a fair, didn’t read that properly! guess for tablet replacement that does sound nice, but for reading i think i’d still prefer something like the xteink (actually very curious if the size will be an issue but i always hate how heavy the paperwhite feels)

i have no data on it, but i’d honestly doubt you’d get much power savings when watching video?

also high refresh rate displays were stupidly expensive last time i checked. there is, after all, just a single company making them…

why would you run android on eink anyway? refresh rates are garbage for anything but reading and owning a distraction free device is one of the biggest upsides of ereaders, for me anyway

i did root my kindle (got it as a present) and even a terminal is horrid to use… actually just ordered an xteink and really looking forward to an unlocked bootloader from the factory ^^

p.s. also i just got an email that they released a newer version which seems to have a better soc (don’t read comics but if that’s a reason maybe they’re already improving on that) edit: and it’s still half the price, most of which is probably the display itself tbf D:

nah, same-ish in eu… i tend to go for the really low end (motorola usually has a phone for about 100-200€) cos i only really use lemmy, calls, messaging and bank (the one that doesn’t let me switch to custom full time D:) and they usually last me at least 2 years… don’t think a flagship would last me 10 tbh x)

the saddest part is that we normalised 650$ phones being ‘mid-range’

i meeean… last name checks out?

the “you have reached your quota limit” at the end is just such a cherry on top xD

cos the ui is why people abandoned it… :picard:

the audacity (sorry :D)

TIL

guess i just never botheres to try cos config change & rebuild wasn’t much more of a hassle :shrugs:

just for clarity: you can modify stuff like hosts or cron jobs but it’d get overwritten iirc? you can also make the change in the config and have it persist (reproducibility being the main point, not disallowing you to edit your files)

well if it makes you feel better you just made me man history xD

i just cat grep .bash_history lol

but this does sound more convenient xD

welp, looks like you don’t use python virtualenvs… well i guess jokes on you all your shit is probably broken now (and as a bonus, that’s probably a big part of the donwload size as well) :p

nice… so we need a github marketing campaign to fund the software that makes the world run? nice…
