Termux is available via the Play store right now, on Android at least.

Good luck. At one time I was experiencing high ping times and near non existent speed from ATT Fiber to Online.fr's network. I did 80% of the diagnostics for them and provided the details and of course a nudge as to what I felt the is

> The focus on really understanding the problem tends to create more stable abstractions which do get reused. But that's emergent, not speculative ahead-of-time. Thank you for putting so eloquently my own fumbling thoughts. Perfect

Yes! I work with many folks objectively way younger and smarter than me. The two bad habits I try to break them of are abstractions and what ifs. They spend so much time chasing perfection that it negatively affects their output. Multipl

Fitting that this is a copy paste submission taken from another source (linked in dupe comments), likely by a bot based on post history. The computers are turning on each other.

I've said it before and say it again, I firmly think AOL was just ahead of its time. Bring it back. Charge me 10 or 20 a month. Give me the walled off chatrooms, forums, IM, articles, keywords, search, etc. Revamp it, make it modern

From Wikipedia - The Blackberry Storm sold 500,000 units in its first month and 1 million units by January 2009.[15] However, Verizon had to replace almost all of the one million Storm smartphones sold in 2008 due to issues with the SurePre

Well, their problems were manifold and I think the movie does a decent job explaining them. Highly recommend, if you haven't seen it yet. They didn't evolve, took the iPhone as a joke, and when finally playing catch-up, the hardw

Today sure, it just needs support from a major player. Not -that- long ago, nearly every mfg had their own OS(Blackberry, Meego/Symbian, Win Mobile, Palm, etc) and each had enough apps. If Samsung or Huawei or probably even Motorola d

You mentioned offshore wind, is offshore solar not a thing? Seems it'd be rather easy to float a farm of them...easier than floating a giant windmill, at least.

That's basically a Chromebook, which can run both Android apps and Linux apps.

Same. Immensely helped my gut, and uh, other things too.

Was at a boring company for a long time, because it paid well enough and I had 6 weeks PTO that rolled over and even paid out when maxed. I turned down a lot of job offers because I valued that. As you can imagine with the enshittification

Understood. I'm trying to be careful with absolutes here. I can't attest that not a single person in the area placed a full price order. As for the number, it's happening fast and I only happened to follow a few, so don&#x2

To be clear, I didn't mean for free from Starlink, I meant free via donation. I follow a half dozen accounts in the area, and they're all donating a lot. Here is one, for example. Ignore the politics and just scroll through the S

It's a start. This is a national emergency, there are still people unaccounted for and people who don't know if their family is alive or dead. This helps setting up internet at regional centers that weren't devastated, for c

They're mostly getting the hardware for free. A lot of people in TN and elsewhere are delivering and installing Starlink units for free to the disaster areas(more than the US govt), and begging Elon for free service. Seems like he or

I wish distros would put their 'why' case on the main page. OK, it's based on Sid, and has a community. So does Debian, why not use Sid?

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I'm definitely interested - I'll certainly be keeping an eye on it. It'd probably be nice to try to assuage uncertainty in the FAQ somewhere if not already as a long term vision/pla

I feel like these services have a chicken egg dilemma. For example, I'm highly interested in it, but don't sign up because I don't know if they'll be around in a year or 10. So I'd like to see one long established

There's two I like in particular as an American, but mostly because their counterparts are ruined. 'Good on you' is the biggest one. 'Good for you', especially in text, to me comes across as bitter or sarcastic bec

Even if they don't defend their passengers, they like nearly all humans are interested in self preservation. If this person had presented a gun or other imminently dangerous situation, a taxi driver would surely flee. Would a self dr

Paywalls work when you offer content not easily available everywhere else. NY Times or WSJ come to mind. CNN in my opinion has no special content. It's just one of tens of national news sites, full of weird ad spam below the fold. I

I get them also in my Lunar Lake NUC. Usually in the browser, and presents as missing/choppy text oddly enough. Annoying but not really a deal breaker. Hoping it sorts out in the next couple kernel updates.

There's a guy who I see on Twitter often, who has replied here but as a new account, named Brian Roemmele. See if you can get in contact with him, he may be interested in it.

Funnily enough, this reminds me of my Dad's approach years back. After he said no and they'd start again, he'd say "oh sorry, are ya deaf or dumb, boy?" in a way you couldn't tell if he was joking or not. They

Mine is an enigma. The lumber is indoors, but is always soaking wet. It's infuriating. One time while digging through a pile of 2x4s, an employee asked if I needed anything. I sarcastically asked what time they watered the lumber ea

Not sure about other cultures, but Americans lives in general I think would be a bit less stressful if there wasn't some weird aversion to just saying 'no' to things you don't want to do, rather than reaching for excuses

All true. Even in the low tier/tin can grade, you have to be careful with brand. King Oscar for example is by far the worst I've ever tried. Cento is miles better. This isn't just flavor, but texture, size, and firmness.
