Well, the car company is named after a girl.

I got 150 hours out of this game and I think that is very much all i will ever play.

For a good while it was even quite interesting because there were still a lot of new things to discover.

But then you started to do things just to get them done not because they were particularly fun or interesting.

If they don’t implement some fundamental new way to play this game or combine existing mechanics better together I don’t think anything could pull me back.

And i hope procedural generation starts to die very soon. Throwing the same basic ingredience into a mixer does not give you something new but more of the same. It’s boring.

That is is even still recognizable blows my mind. I mean this looks like it is in the open, on a sloping rock face, exposed to the weather for 12,000 years in the rainforest.

How the hell does it still look that good?

Könnte erklären, warum ich die letzten Wochen immer so extrem müde bin.

Thank you!

We should really start concentrating more on decentralization.

Take Freifunk as example and similar projects.

What we need is a user-run private alternative to the internet. Wireless mesh networks are a very interesting step in that direction.

As long the infrastructure is owned by the government and companies, we will never be really free.

…virtual note takers? we don’t even write our own fucking notes anymore?..

edit:

Okay, okay, I get it :D AI indeed has some uses.

Isn’t RCS for the most part using Google services and servers? I don’t know if that really is that much better.

To my knowledge, the original idea to have RCS be operated by the mobile providers is pretty much dead.

PostmarketOS seems to support many devices

3 devices. They support 3 devices under the “main” branch. And those are not even real devices but emulated on PC.

Every single smartphone they support falls under the “community” branch. that means it was made available by volunteers in their free time. some will never see further updates after getting them to work once.

And the list looks like this:

and so on. there is none newer then 2021 and then it goes very fast down to 2012. see yourself: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Devices#Phones

It does run on many phones, but e.g. support for Camera is very very rare because that is one thing you most of the time only get a binary blob for as driver and not the source code. and it is a god damn nightmare to get those things working.

This would mean that all the necessary drivers for the entire hardware would have to be recreated by reverse engineering. that would take years until you have an even halfway working device.

In the end, you have to poke around randomly in the hardware until at some point a light goes on somewhere. and so on. takes freaking forever. some devices don’t have working support after a decade and more of work.

Fairphone. And some older Sony Xperia. But afaik that limits the DRM (e.g. no more Netflix in HD).

The selection is extremely limited.

Its not about popularity. to be frank, the performance of Pixels is mediocre at best. It is neither particularly fast, nor does it have a particularly long battery life, nor is it overly stylish.

The strength lies in the dedicated security hardware and the fact that you can re-lock the bootloader, which is extremely rare. plus 7 to 10 years support with updates.

In terms of privacy and security the combination of Pixel Hardware and GrapheneOS Software could be considered the holy grail. There is just no other hardware right now that comes even close.

With some caveats.

We’ll need to switch to prebuilt code for those parts which requires building a system for it.

So if I understand correctly, they no longer have access to the source code and can ultimately only use the binaries for the port. That means no more insight into what exactly Google has built into it, whether there are security weaknesses, etc.

I don’t like the sound of that. But lets wait and see…

Thanks for the info!

For fucks sake. Got me a pixel not even a year ago especially for Graphene -_-

How fast we forgot Syria. Erdogan still bombing Kobane for example.

And then you need the chair and move the whole pile to the bed, just to move it back in the evening. repeat for 10 years. Now that I’ve moved, everything will be better, i swear.
