- m-p-3Not hacks, (malicious?) incompetency.
- We had to freeze iOS 26 deployment because Apple fucked up something with the content filter that some enterprise softwares uses (ex: CrowdStrike) that when broken (seems random so far..) blocks all network traffic, requiring a factory reset, since the only way to disable the content filter is through the MDM.
Absolutely not impressed with that one.
- Some don't even bother, and the only thing they update (when they remember about it) is their business hours on Google Maps.
- PebbleOS was quite polished compared to the other RTOS out there. The animations were smooth most of the time, and responsiveness was great, the concept of the timeline is genius. The Pebble team made sure that it was accomplishing its main purpose (always displaying time, and time related events) really well, and then built everything around that.
I hope this revival will be sustainable and bring back some of that brilliance.
- Pantone doesn't work for metal and reflective surfaces, because as the poster above said, reflections and viewing angles have an impact.
- A good example of what happens when poor communication and lack of transparency collides..
- I got mine from the Kickstarter, and it didn't came with the little tape. Those connectors are now corroded as f..
- Personally I don't mind if the purpose is increased privacy and that the processing is done locally.
Some great examples are the local translation engine and I believe they also added or are in the process to add a small engine that can describe images and provide caption on-demand, which is a great step towards accessibility.
- So if Google doesn't like the app in question (such as ReVanced, NewPipe, etc), they can simply target that signing key to completely disable the app on all devices, even if it's not distributed by them.
Having the file signed by a relatively centralized authority makes it much easier for Google to gain control outside of their realm.
- I used it but I had various amount of success. I bought an HDD enclosure that would mount the ISO/VHD/FDD image at the hardware level (IODD is the brand), and that worked mostly consistently.
A bit expensive, but when you rely on it for work it's worth investing a bit of money.
- > But no they have to live in their secured enclave or on a dongle so that you can't copy them between devices because nothing ever happened to a device.
I'm actually fine with this. It's like how SSH private keys are supposed to be handled: generated on the device, and never supposed to leave it.
The proper way of doing Passkeys is to have several Passkeys enrolled in your account, so that you always have a trusted device to access your services. Now, if the service doesn't allow multiple Passkeys per account that IS a problem.
- I've used Gadgetbridge with the Pebble and many other compatible smartwatches, would recommend.
- For now I rely on Heroic Launcher and it does a decent job for my GOG games on Bazzite.
- They cave to the subsequent regulatory and financial pressure though.
- Should I feel bad to use a dishwasher or a washing machine?
Also one of the chores I hate doing the most is folding clothes. If I could have a machine that does it well every time, I'd buy it.
- Which is a clear roadblock for third-party appstores adoption, notably F-Droid which compiles and signs the apps it distributes.
What if F-Droid distributes an app Google or its US overlords deems dangerous or illegal? Will they block and/or revoke that signature, thus taking down F-Droid in its entirety?
- Do you accept PR to include some accented characters, or do you prefer keeping a limited set or characters?
- Reminded me that I'm due for my second dose, provided temporarily for free in Quebec for people between 21 to 45 years old who didn't get it when they were young because it wasn't a thing back then.

Now they're offering it to children as part of the standard regimen, which is great.
- > I don't think btrfs has a concept of having only some subvolumes usable. Either you can mount the filesystem or you can't.
You can still mount the BTRFS array as degraded if you specify it during mount. But then this lead to some others issues like the missing data written while degraded will not be automatically be copied over without doing a scrub, while ZFS will resilver it automatically, etc
> You can prevent the issue in the first place by identifying the filesystem by UUID instead of by an individual block device.
I tried that, but all it does is select the first available block device during mount, so if that device goes down, the mount also goes down.
- Context: I mostly dealt with RAID1 in a home NAS setup
A ZFS pool will remain available even in degraded mode, and correct me if I'm wrong but with BTRFS you mount the array through one of the volume that is part of the array and not the array itself.. so if that specific mounted volume happens to go down, the array becomes unavailable unmounted until you remount another available volume that is part of the array which isn't great for availability.
I thought about mitigating that by making an mdadm RAID1 formatted with BTRFS and mount the virtual volume instwad, but then you lose the ability to prevent bit rot, since BTRFS lose that visibility if it doesn't manage the array natively.
