That’s a good question I dont have an answer to. Maybe there are ways to short where you can just hold, but I dont know how. Maybe there’s a way to borrow lots of RAM and GPUs, sell them, then buy them back when the price drops and sell them for cheap back to whom you borrowed. But I dont know who would make that deal.
A good friend’s grandma was missing her friends and I suggested getting her online so that she could meet other people while gaming, but the idea was rejected as she had enough trouble fighting out WhatsApp. Her daughters had to call her on Google Messenger until it was killed.
She finally died of cancer but was very happy while doing it because of the relief. No more pain, no more loneliness. I wish we could introduce gaming to more seniors. It might make their life more interesting. Then could even have a Gray League and stream themselves to other aging people.
I bet that if the people born between after 1980 get to retire, gaming will be pretty normal. Unless social media has eaten away at their brains too much. Or something greater comes along like brain to computer interfaces.
This has been a feature since at least 2012 on every Android I’ve tested and it never required google. Pixels can’t be that far behind. Since it’s advertising Google, I bet the recording feature is sending it straight to the cloud before or after writing the file locally (or writing it straight to google drive).
This is what I said
There was no documentation or guide for embedding it into
This is what you posted
If you’d like to embed Servo in your own application, consider using tauri-runtime-verso, a custom Tauri runtime, or servo-gtk, a GTK4-based web browser widget.
Great documentation and exceptional guide! 👏 What next, are you going to tell me that the code is the documentation? “Just read the code”?
So, in order to embed Servo you need:
- to use Tauri: sure, pull in a huge other project to be able to use our project 🫰
- use GTK: again, pull in a bunch of unrelated dependencies to be able to embed our project
I can’t give servo some graphical surface (OpenGL, Vulkan, Metal, DX, whatever), call a function to open a webpage and see it draw on that surface. There’s no lib with documentation on crates.io, no bindings for other languages, and non of the things I mentioned in my previous comment.
It feels like this is built just like Gecko was for Firefox: single consumer with the consumer being the “reference implementation”.
I should’ve been clearer: my misgiving is the claim of “embeddable”. If embeddable means having to read the code to find out how instead reading documentation, tutorials, and examples, nah, it ain’t embeddable. It’s possibly embeddable.
It’s like claiming NIXOS were user friendly, assembly being easy, or Arch Linux stable.
Saudi Arabia wants EA? Why?
It might become the most watched video of the UK parliament. Whether that will have any effect though, is debatable.
Hopefully these won’t end up in the ukraine war on the side of Russia 😐
The US and the West at large just thought China would stay that nice exploitable country for cheap labor forever. Their plans never adjusted to either find an alternative or move back production.
Capitalists praise “the power of the market” for being agile and whatnot, but companies (and many Western countries are being run by companies) target costs optimisation at all costs. They are like AIs with a bias for it and hyper-specialise for it. The only moves companies have are “buy the competitor” and for countries it’s just protectionism until war.
This isn’t praise for China throwing the majority of their citizens into the machine as cheap labor for Western companies, more a critique of the West’s tunnel vision. We will reap what we sowed.
Put it on peertube, maybe?
Can’t you use r2modman instead? Or does an old source mod community exist?
Oh sweet! a question then for you: can you explain what the FairPhone is missing in terms of security? Do you maybe have notes comparing it to the Pixel? As a security layman, I’m curious.
Hopefully this also means monetary investment in open source, not just open source usage without a support contract or contributing back. Matrix is a great example of an open source project that is being used by governments but struggling to get paid because governments are employing their own support staff and making internal forks.
But the more governments, agencies and individuals switch, there greater the chance they’ll pay the developers and maintainers for support or features.
Why can’t you run your own OS anymore? You don’t have to buy a Pixel. This news is about Pixel phones, one of the many many many Android phones…
You heard stuff? What stuff specifically? Care to elaborate and provide sources?
Isn’t SailFish a Russian outfit? Also, every time I’ve looked at their phones, they were either sold out or somehow unavailable. Are they still active?
Get a FairPhone with /e/OS. Give money to people who actually want to see an open ecosystem, not lock it down.
How is it possible that Huawei is the third biggest phone vendor and most apps still have trouble running without Google Services? I thought they were not able to come preloaded with Google Services for a few years and that they have many customers outside of China. Are all those customers just limited to Chinese apps?
Do they do reporting with AMD engineers? If not, AMD should be jumping on this as fast as possible.
Understandable. It’s a pity Google is so embedded in our systems. You can still get a fairphone though. It also comes with regular android. I’ve read in multiple places not to get the official fairphone case. You might have to check why that is.
The good thing about the fairphone is that it has the highest reparability raring of any current phone out there. You can swap put the screen, battery, and other components very easily when things go haywire.
And of course it’s one of the very few companies on this world that tries to give a shit about slavery in the supply chain.
I know somebody’s going to day “get a pixel and put grapheneOS, it’s the most secure phone in the planet”. I don’t know if the Swedish apps dependent on google services will work, but if you do decide to go google hardware, you can try and get it secondhand.
Fairphone with eOS if you want to get away from Google even more. No google services but access to f-droid and the play store with anonymous accounts.
Or, get a second-hand phone and flash it with eOS or lineage OS.
Would be great if the patents were invalided, but the bigger issue would be them being accepted in the first place. That shouldn’t even work.
If this does go to court because the patents are considered valid and they can successfully argue that they don’t apply, I’m afraid Nintendo could just hand-craft another patent. They would have been given instructions the recipe during the court proceedings.
But I do wonder if PocketPair could just default on the lawsuit in the US. What kind of effect would that have?
Target your anger about this to something productive.

This researchxxl person then also released a new version Synthing-Lite on fdroid.
I’m so confused by this situation. Updates to syncthing-fork have been disabled. Doesn’t seem trustworthy at the moment.
