Super interesting approach. I like it.

Moto was semi modular. We all know how that ended. If hmd can get it right, where modules are supported throughout the phone lines (within reason, of course), then great. But I suspect capitalism will get in the way.

Bluesky is supposed to decentralized, though it doesn’t seem to be. Threads being blocked doesn’t change the fact that it is technically part of the verse, although a red herring. Maybe both poor examples, but they’re alternatives to the verse, which was my point. Maybe adding a public mastodon instance as an alternative would have been a better example, but the main point stands: a uni isn’t likely going to host their own instance, due to the inherent risk associated with it.

Honorable goal. But it won’t work. From a business’s perspective, hosting such a server adds inherent risk. They won’t do it. You may be able to convince them to use the fediverse through threads or bluesky, but they won’t host their own instance, even if the CTO/CIO/CISO agrees with your love for the verse. I’m not saying you shouldn’t try. I’m saying you should provide alternatives to twitter and to self-hosted mastodon; alternatives that don’t require self hosting anything.

I absolutely LOVE that one. One of my all time favorites.

This was ONE GUY??? What a legend! I hope his family knows the giant positive impact he’s had on so many people, and is able to find some sort of comfort knowing he will be missed by so many strangers. A true tragedy.

Edit: autocorrect

I’ve been on calyxos and grapheneos since at least 11, and didn’t realize they were gone from the google variant of android, since I’ve had them this entire time. I wonder, now, if it’s an AOSP thing or a calyxos/grapheneos thing.

Open F-Droid, search camera. I see Fossify Camera, Open Camera, Libre Camera, and FreeDCam that basically provide the appeal that this subscription camera app has (AI-less).

Open PlayStore/Alternative, search camera. Holy cow! I’m not even going to name any. There are so many. Not all are AI-less, but there are a plenty.

Also, GCam has a RAW option. So… out of the box, this new camera app is unnecessary.

Is this different than Charging Control? I’m on 7 Pro CalyxOS and have been using that since I was on 4 XL [a couple years ago]. I figured it was AOSP…

Edit: added a cleared timeline.

Take my angry upvote hahahaha

I saw the name, and immediately thought, “sweet! Another kde tool!” Then finished reading the title lol Looks like a good editor nonetheless

Edit: requires access to manage storage, which is excessive for a text editor. Pretty sure it has to do with its other features, which is fine, but I don’t feel comfortable with this type of access for any third party app. If you’re fine with this access, Xed/Karbon really looks useful. I might add it to my coding tablet.

GPT4All and Jan.AI are good places to start.

This is a really great use of LLM! Seriously great job! Once it’s fully self-hostable (including the LLM model), I will absolutely find it space on the home server. Maybe using Rupeshs fastdcpu as the model and generation backend could work. I don’t remember what his license is, though.

Edit: added link.

Ah, you meant phone of the time. I thought you meant phones throughout time. Like, today’s Pixel 9 compared to the N95. That sort of thing.

Yeah, you’re right. Back then, it was all marketing and storefront locks. That’s it.

And the flagship iphone of today is lower specs than its direct android competitor. But, then again, that’s how apple seems to operate: lowest possible specs, highest possible marketing, beautiful (debatable, I know) UI… and locked storefront.

It’s also better specs that some software and security processes require, but yeah, it’s mostly marketing and it sucks.

No lol I just channeled my inner 90s hahahaa

I almost got the N95 back in the day, bit it didn’t work with my provider. This project is hella wicked

Came to ask the same question. A while back, someone had a semi-solution for fighting CSAM on Lemmy. Maybe you can implement a similar method on your network.

Well, then. There it is. I do remember using AIMP right before I left windows altogether, and liking it more than jet.

What about jet audio? Is it FOSS? I can’t find anything about that. I used it after Winamp started disappointing with it’s media support.
