When a large book turns into an epub/zip that is under 100kb, what makes the paper so important? When you add up all the books that were required for our careers, would they be a megabyte? The little that we understand is uncomfortably

The Chipolos that I have purchased appear on my phone when first presented, then do not offer to pair to other users' Find Hubs unless I deregister. I imagine that Airtag functionality is disabled when Find Hub configures these tags. I

I run LineageOS on both a Pixel 3a XL and a OnePlus 5. Yes, these both run Snapdragons. The option to install the subsystem is present on both, but I have not attempted it. I have loaded it onto a Pixel 6a running Graphene.

I had a communications theory class in college that addressed "vestigal sideband modulation," which I believe was implemented by Farnsworth. I think this is a critical aspect to the introduction of television technology. https:&#

Are you quite certain? Google pushed a non-downgradable final update to the Pixel 6a. I was able to install Graphene on such a device. Lineage was advertised and completely incompatible, but some hinted it would work.

If you want an encrypted tunnel maintained by inetd or systemd socket activation, then stunnel is easier to use in this context than ssh. Edit: I put stunnel on port 443 and have it connect to port 80 on my Apache webservers, because I like

I have deleted in the past, and saw my score immediately jump, but perhaps I was being upvoted elsewhere. Or maybe it was the tooth fairy. No idea.

Phones that don't get updates for 12 months also should be required to unlock their bootloaders, so a 3rd party ROM can be installed, or at least Magisk can be loaded. Mediatek devices are beyond hope, but some could be saved this way
