    What baseband silicon does it mount ?

    As a Pixel user I don't know if I would class the Pixel as a better choice to anything, but I still haven't moved to Graphene admittedly (my bad).

    Eh busy week, abroad on a business trip for almost a month now. Weekend was nice though, got the chance to do some sightseeing. Other than that, still hoping for a particular person to contact me (I don't have their contact), not sure it will ever happen but hey, who knows, I am an optimist by nature :)

    Android (or at least some) have this feature now, the charging rate is usually adjusted based on time of the day, next alarm clock setting, charger type, etc

  • I went to a ramen place in Tokyo and to order ramen you had to insert money and place your order via this machine. This felt like going back to the early 90s but in a way that we are definitely not used to in western countries. It had a very retro futuristic vibe!

    This is a very good point and one that is not discussed enough. Archive.org is doing amazing work but there is absolutely not enough of that and they have very limited resources.

    The whole internet is extremely ephemeral, more than people realize, and it's concerning in my opinion. Funny enough, I actually think that federation/decentralization might be the solution. A distributed system to back-up the internet that anyone can contribute storage and bandwidth to might be the only sustainable solution. I wonder.if anyone has thought about it already.

    I always had mixed feelings about downvoting. On YouTube, dislikes were very useful, on Reddit I feel downvotes are just used to bring down dissenting opinions, regardless of their merit, so in a community like this it makes sense to disable them.

    I see this less as a damage to Reddit, and more as an opportunity to diversify, make people aware of the threat of centralised corporate-run platforms, and to build the federated internet alternatives a bit more, to give them momentum.
