I bet you will need a crypto-backed ai startup for that project!

I believe telegram manages that with severe upload and download speed limits, but Telegram has always been a bit shady, hasn’t it? Who knows how they financially support all that.


I can already see the first person with the implant losing to a teenager gamer in a competition hosted by musk. This reality’s plot has become too boring already. The writer has lost all creativity.


Well, in my experience, calling it Twitter or any variation helps people stay in negation about the fact that Twitter is dead, and calling it x makes people more likely to open their eyes and delete their account, and losing users is what really hurts musk. I already helped all the people from my close friends circle to move out from that shit.


I always refer to it as X, to remember people that the twitter they knew is long dead


I feel the same. Some rts games feel to me more like a test of motor skills than anything else.


I have always been the one who goes against the trends, and it looks like I still am. Strategy is one of the very few genres that I like, and if the game has no strategic element to it, I usually don’t enjoy it.

But… I don’t like overwhelming UIs and elements. I like simplicity, few elements and not many options, but a deep strategy.


I have given it a try a few times, to see if it makes sense to search on tiktok. I tried things like “[generic topic I’d like to know more about]”, “history of [topic]”, “[topic] lecture/course”, “how to replace screen of [phone model]”, “how to fix [device model]”, “how to make [recipe]”, [product] review, [software] tutorial, and a few others, both in english and in my mother language, and in all cases, the results were poor, barely related to my search or nonexistent.

It makes me wonder if: 1- people don’t actually search on tiktok as much as people make it look like 2 - there’s some different way to write the search terms that I’m unaware of, or perhaps, the results would be different if I was logged in 3 - people are simply getting poor results and that’s it 4 - my search interests differ too much from what people search on tiktok


This is one thing I would love to actually see some data about, because I have never seen people not using search engines, no matter the age, but I see a lot of people on the internet claiming that younger people don’t use search engines anymore.


There’s one active brand still making e-ink phones, both single and doubled screen. It’s HiSense. The devices look pretty nice.



Almost all of our GUI software was designed with high refresh rate screens in mind, so it can be clunky to use e-ink ones. If we had GUis based on section changing, instead of scrolling, it wouldn’t be a problem. On pcs, using the page up and down keys can be a workaround, but on phones, it’s complicated.


Damn, I LOVE e-ink screens, I’d love to have almost all my devices using it, I love to read freely without getting eye strain from it. I’d even give away being able to watch videos in my phone for an e-ink screen.

But it seems like I will never be able to use it anywhere besides my cheap second hand ereader… the prices are always astronomically high :( even chinese e-ink tablets are too expensive for me.


That AI in the article title was probably for getting more clicks and do some seo tricks, because the text barely mentions it. The expected growth is in industrial and automotive applications. In a way, it’s likely to reach consumers soon, but not in the way we want.




Do you monitor the fediverse for mentions to mojeek, so you can jump in and comment?



Well, if someone questioned the environmental consequences of combustion engines a hundred years ago, they would be laughed of, but decades later we came to the conclusion that they’re terrible to tbe environment. Jumping on new things without pondering the consequences, like we mostly do as a society, isn’t very different from fearing everything new. I think it’s a good thing to have some caution and discuss the possible consequences of generative ai. I would prefer more data and less sentiment, though.




There are a couple of experimental laptops already, but I never heard about a phone.


Seeing functional risc-v devices popping up is so awesome! Not long ago, they were highly experimental. When I eventually find myself in need of a new device, I will probably get one with a risc-v processor.


If you managed to make it until mirage, you’re very resilient. I gave up long ago.


That site lists misskey as the second most popular fediverse network, but I never heard of it. I will check it out.


I wonder if no one in the head of such a big company wonders if the fact that an increasing amount of people not wanting to move to their newer versions means that they’re maybe, you know, just maybe, doing something that people don’t want?


I see they’re getting desperate. One year and half to eol, and still, according to statcounter, 69% of the world uses windows 10.


It’s a sad thing to see one more sign of how the big tech companies dominated the internet. A lot of people today don’t even know how to use their devices, but only how to use the products offered by those conpanies.


This is very interesting, I will check it. Are there any drawbacks?

Edit: Just tried it. No miracles, but got a noticeable gain is usability on my phone. I recommend it to everyone using low-end devices out there. The instructions I found used this command: adb shell cmd package compile -m speed -f -a



We’re living in a dystopia so boring that the future is easily predictable.


For anyone interested in running epic games on linux, try heroic launcher.
