Anecdotally I think this is right on the money. I've been buying lots of LoRA hardware over the course of the year and I think I'm up to 9 different permutations of the "same" board via swaps of the LoRA SXnnnn/ESPn

How much of that benefit do you think is attributable to the networked aspects of Ring, vs., say, a similar level of coverage of non-centralized cameras? I guess this could come off as a loaded question, but I'm genuinely interested in

Reading the parent post, I found the monetary aspect less as some kind of anti-capitalist moralism, but more an observation regarding incentives: There's nothing wrong with making money. However, when your historical business model rel

You're right, but I also think that lets the ad networks off the hook too easily for something they really could do more to combat if they felt like it. Maybe there's a useful analogue in tort law: https://en.m.wikipedi

"AOSP Treble GSI" is another good top-of-the-rabbit-hole search term. tldr if you have an even somewhat recent unlock(ed)/(able) android device, you can probably drop a very pure AOSP build on it pretty easily.

Yeah. I think some celebration is warranted, but the "disaster averted, my iPhone is back to being a trustworthy user agent" take seems to be a bit myopic when the core problem is that Apple possesses enough control over the devic

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that. Like I said, there are plenty of fulfilling non-commercial NEET-friendly outlets. I just see the game/tv spiral as almost uniquely destructive of self-esteem.

In my experience[0] that's not really true. This comment[1] is pretty on the money. Being a NEET is not a vacation, and playing video games all day is often a means of avoiding confronting the realization that you're a waste of ox
