I could see book-style foldables becoming more popular if the pride goes down, I thought they were useful in showroom testing.

But you are right, prices are still very high.

Findroid - a Jellyfin client for Android.

SimpleTextEditor - open source notepad type app for Android.

The larger book-style foldables are really the ones we should be questioning, considering their price, durability issues and lack of a clear reason to exist.

I am not sure I agree.

Back in 2014/2015, we still used the term “phablet”, fast-forward ~10 years and almost all smartphones have become “phablets” with compact devices (what would be a regular device in 2014) have become extremely niche.

I’ve only used the book-style foldables in a Samsung showroom, they seemed fine, just very expensive.

The price should eventually come down.

I’ve only used it as a search engine for finding public data sources and general business research.

The search result summaries and search results categorization style is helpful.

For this use case it works much better than ChatGPT and Le Chat.

4,000 ST in Geekbench 6 is a very high score by modern standards.

I believe it’s at least partially tied to Android’s architecture, for example how you need to “optimize apps” on first boot.

They are going to play around with it for a bit, but they will abandon the system once it does get 12 quadrillion MAUs in the first quarter of release.

Instead, the AR glasses maker finally revealed that Aura won’t be processing data on the glasses itself. It will instead use a separate, tethered, puck-like device that sits in your pocket. Like Xreal’s other products, such as its recent One Pro, the glasses have the in-built wire, though you’ll be able to disconnect from the processing device if you want to store the glasses and puck separately.

This does not seem viable.

Beautiful art.

Thanks for this!

I’ve been meaning to try Piefed, but never got to it.

Not surprised about this. I am surprised it took them so long to move to fully contract manufacturing.

Looks very much like change for the sake of change, or be more specific, change for the sake of promotion.

That’s a fair point.

Spread this everywhere?

I watch a lot of movies with subtitles, the usual approach is to have “forced” subtitles track (to be used in combination with a foreign language VO/dub).

That being said, it’s possible that you are right. But considering the overall approach used by American oligarchs, it’s reasonable to be sceptical and not give them the benefit of the doubt.

Had to remove spam and some overly obnoxious shit-posting a few times.

F-Droid has the potential to make a much a bigger impact on a relative basis. Most people with still use default app stores, but I think F-Droid still has a long way even among semi-technical audiences.

There is in-app changelog (URL link?), I am assuming this update is not related to the new design.

This is a much needed update. While I like the functionality of F-Droid, the UI is unappealing.

Very well could be. No one in my has a phone with OneUI 7, and I am only happy out phones will be getting it once it’s been beta tested by someone else. 😀
