If you buy a used one, you can probably get it a good but cheaper as well
I think there’s also similar devices to a Raspberry Pi that are cheaper
I also have a fingerprint reader in the screen but I feel like the one on the back of my Redmi 5 Plus was more reliable. It’s not a dealbreaker tho.
You can already charge wirelessly. As for the speakers, Samsung has an OLED TV that vibrates the glass of the screen to produce sound, maybe something similar would be possible on a phone too. Don’t know if something similar would be possible for the mic.
Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t want a phone like that but it would be cool to see if it’s possible.
Hab ich tatsächlich schon gemacht, aber iwie funktioniert das noch nicht ganz. Weil ich selber nicht rausfinden konnte warum, hab ich grad nen post gemacht wo ich nach Hilfe frage.
Wegen dem letzten Part, es geht zwar schon um privacy, aber dadurch, dass ich momentan YouTube direkt nutzen muss, weil die Piped instances nicht funktionieren, ist es halt immer noch besser. Außerdem hab ich angefangen nen GTK 4 Piped client zu schreiben und ich muss das halt auch iwie testen können.
Thanks, I’m gonna selfhost it then. What you said about the piped components sounds interesting, is there like a list of them?
You can disable COW for specific files btw
I just did a quick online search and it seems like the reason for removing that was that it was way too much work to maintain and stopped them from implementing performance improvements for Firefox. Apparently it was also a lot of work for extension developers, since they had to update their extensions constantly.
That’s just what I read tho, I wasn’t there when XUL extensions where still a thing.
This actually reminded me to do it 😭
Set a reminder for when I’m home
Is that also how custom ROMs like LineageOS do it? My phone (Nothing Phone 1) isn’t supported anymore and it has really annoying issues that I’d like to fix by becoming the maintainer for that ROM but I have no idea how that whole thing works and where to find how to do this.
Wouldn’t a home router with Windows cost way more because of the licence?
The Deutsche Bahn uses Linux for the displays in their trains, that show you the next stops, at least. Saw the systemd startup thingy on one of those displays once when the train restarted while I was in it.
Really cool how even phones in that price range have 120hz screens now, my current phone (Nothing Phone 1) is also in that price range and has a display like that. IPhone users should really be madder at Apple for not putting 120hz screens on the non-pro phones, even though they cost way more than these Android phones.
A Minecraft Earth using this would be fucking awesome, maybe I’ll get around to making it one day
Couldn’t you just compare the energy usage of Laptops or desktop PCs with native support running Linux compared to the energy usage when running Windows on them? I have a PC with an AMD GPU and CPU so my hardware is fully supported, I could actually test it. I think a laptop would be better to test on tho, since a desktop PC might not be trying to use as little power as possible in the first place.
There’s @loops@pixelfed.social, which is getting a beta release soon
