Smartphones in 2040:

Whatever. As long as I can run LineageOS or Debian on it.

Because if we don’t build and profit from the Torment Nexus, someone else will

I do wonder what the refresh rate is like on these. I’ve been daily driving a Minimal Phone for a few months now. While I like it, it definitely took some getting used to. While it’s actually quite snappy, it feels abysmally slow even compared to the Cat S22 Flip it replaced (which is a low-end Android smartphone in a flip phone form factor).

I also wonder why they bothered with a camera on it. The camera on the Minimal is extremely “meh”, but the thing that makes it mostly useless is the refresh rate of the e-ink. You never know if you got a blurry mess of a picture or what. The firmware will put the screen into “fast refresh / low fidelity” mode to try to improve it, but it’s still a roll of the dice when trying to take any kind of photo. About the only thing it’s good for is scanning QR codes.

I think that’s what I’m going to try.

Yeah, I’ve decided I’m just gonna splurge the ~$30 and buy a 4 GB model and see how it goes.

Sounds like at least a minor improvement. Can those me moved and still work? Like, if I move the project folder, do I have to reinitialize it and download all the packages again?

For me, it’s the rigid and wonky virtual environments. I get why they’re useful and necessary, but they’re awkward to use. Like, Node just works from the working directory with no fuss and python has to be all source {venv}/bin/activate and lord help you if you need to move it.

Plus, I have never liked that the spacing is load-bearing.

You’re empathizing with the troll, too? 👀

FYI: What the troll is describing is not required all. I don’t know what they’re on about, but I’ve used ldap-js in many projects without having to do any of that.

For the longest time (relatively speaking), I would do full stack Javascript (like the meme). But I have to frequently tie into AD/LDAP and the only decent NodeJS library for LDAP is no longer maintained because the community was shitty to the dev. Now I’ve had to venture out into Go (I can’t stand working in Python).

Let this be a reminder to be nice to the developers who are giving you their hard work for free.

Unfortunately, our WAF appliances don’t have a Heisenberg compensator.

Thanks :)

My home instance has some top-shelf custom emojis, so I try to use them. Janeway’s eye roll gets a lot of mileage.

I work with several people who would think this is a good idea.

When they push it to prod, and our WAF goes 403 on every request, then suddenly it’s my problem to “fix”.

The only thing worse than that is emailing them a simple boolean question and then your phone rings.

Lol, I think that’s how I learned it was possible, too. yt-dlp uses the title as the filename, and all of the emojis came along with it. Was trying to rename them from terminal, but couldn’t do much when half the filenames started with the fire emoji lol.

I’ve recently learned that in Linux, you can use emois in filenames. I died a little lot inside when I learned that.

I think I’m just gonna get some Pi Zeros + cameras and just roll my own. Probably use the NoIR versions and some cheap IR illuminators. Feed those into Zoneminder.

Bonus points if I can find some old CCTV cameras, gut them, and fit the pi camera to those optics.

That’s a real hero move, and I appreciate it.

Commenting so I can remember to check back for any suggestions. I’ve basically run into this problem:

Keep this in mind when you see brand new accounts spewing out random news sites you’ve never heard of.
