Like back when they sold Time Capsules as a home backup solution? I could sort of see that happening. You can already backup the phones to a Macintosh. I don’t think that would stop the UK government demanding a backdoor to the product, though.
To me a physical keyboard feels much better than tapping away on a glass screen. Swiping keyboards are better than tapping, but I still preferred the tactile feel of physical. I’m probably faster with a swipe keyboard, but I could go much more by feel, not having to look at a physical keyboard.
I hate tapping away on the glass but swiping works okay, until the phone decides a word couldn’t possibly be what you’re trying for. My most recent frustration was New Zealand, which of course worked fine this time.
Yes, but then last year he started saying it had known vulnerabilities that weren’t being fixed, around the same time Telegram was attacking Signal’s credibility. I seem to remember him outright endorsing Telegram but have only done a quick search and that hasn’t popped up.
They say they’re going to propose some activity pub extensions to handle this. It seems to me like they should try to make this function in a way that works with how Lemmy handles cross-posts.
How could BuzzFeed be ruined when it was always bad?
I’m guessing this is nothing to do with the plant that can grow on amusing terra cotta sculptures?
I never used to eat it but actually like adding it to oatmeal with maple syrup and blueberries
This is more to replace the digital signs that currently use LCD/LED displays. It’s more readable in the daytime because it doesn’t need a ridiculously bright backlight to compete against the sun. Compared to those signs this uses dramatically less electricity because it only uses electricity when the image changes (reading the article some of the options run off a small battery pack like you could use to recharge your phone a few times). Iirc you also don’t really have burn-in issues with e-ink. It looks like their color reproduction has gotten a lot better with the latest generation, so this could be a really good fit for a lot of outdoor digital signs.
I have not used them myself, but M-DISC sounds like what you’re looking for. There are a few other alternatives listed on that Wikipedia article, too.
I feel pretty comfortable saying that was the last good one, perhaps the best one, and it’s been downhill ever since.
