I wonder if i could di the opposite: make an iPad believe it’s an iPhone. I don’t see no reason why i couldn’t use my iPad’s built-in modem to make and receive calls. I mean, i could just bring my ipad and my airpods around and be done.

I would actually change as little as possible. The current UI has it quirks, but has the great advantage that it looks the same irrespective of whether you're in an graphical environment (Xorg/Wayland/Windows/MacOS) on i

Does it though? I did my time at a faang, but i’m okay admitting i did contribute to the evil company for the fat paycheque. Yup, my work did (indirectly, i hope) make the world worse. I dislike that but at the end of the day i’m fine with

Supposedly that could be fixable with a bios/firmware update… but there’s no guarantee that will ever happen

Love this article. It basically represents most of my collagues when I worked at a faang.

worth noting that there are many casio watches that are very similar to the g-shock series but are not g-shock. they're probably worse but still incredibly good. I have one of these (W-735H-1AV - https://www.casio.com/i

It’s e tremendously weird however that the specific (alleged) genocide they pick is the one where jewish people are accused, and no other one. It’s almost like if the protests are antisemitism-driven rather than anti-genocide motives. Curio

yes, exactly. same goes with many more genocides happening around the world, involving all kinds of people.

Sadly the Uyghurs are a third-class genocide. It’s been known for years, but for some reason no one is complaining. All those loud protesters screaming genocide in palestine up to two weeks ago are strangely quiet on this.

This is why you should always pirate digital media, even if you bought it. A pdf or epub file will never bother you in that way. And if they do, you can edit it and remove that trash. I always pirate the media i buy and/or the physic

I generally agree. But so much software today is useless without a network connection. Online help (anybody remember those chm files?) was often very very good, because it was supposed to be _the_ documentation for most software.

In Poettering’s defence: his software worked/works. It’s a big change but it wasn’t pushed at early stage: he had a working implementation. No fluff, no bs. After fedora first and rhel later, other distributions followed but nobody’s g
