no, they're also forcing Apple to allow other browser engines on iOS, which was previously banned. other, third party iOS browsers still used the safari webkit engine. > In addition, apps that use alternative browser engines — other

Which, it seems, is out of print and I guess because a lot of people want a complete set of this series, costs > 500USD to buy used?? Woah. I should get my hands on the others while they're still in print.

mitxela did a great video on this topic recently and wrote a plugin for kicad to make the regular geometric layouts more organic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euJgtLcWWyo

i think the issue there is that modern displays decode the signal at different rates, depending on their changing hardware (HDMI/display technologies). with old TVs, the signal was not really decoded, but projected directly onto the &q

it's running a low power nrf52. they can last a year on a coin cell battery, with adequate power optimisations. without an always on display, a week is possibly an underestimation. for example, see the amazfit bip, it has lasted me ~4

you can modify the behavior of the crown button to disable this, if i recall correctly. i think i just deactivated it - after one too many accidental presses.

i have one called the "agptek rocker", it has basic rockbox support but a pretty leaky cheap lcd. i like that it has bluetooth, but i don't believe it's supported yet in rockbox. it's available under various other n

i know, it's what i use daily :) i'm fairly confident they have no builds that are "blobless" though - part of the build process is to extract proprietary code blobs from manufacturer images which are not open source, s

by naraic0o 7y ago
ah right. the point still stands, though. i was also under the impression that many of the device drivers that ship with with modern android phones are closed source. see the step in building lineage "Extract proprietary blobs"[0]
