The fuck? (Edit: Although, does it have a map?)

Hmm…

AliExpress has no right to be that large, neither Opera. No reason to store that much cache. (Edit: cache and cookies are only around 500MB total. Hmmm…) Also, I set F-Droid to keep cached apps for 1 hour, what the hell is this?

I kind of forgot to manage my storage, as I usually do until I have like 5GB left…

Data will always adapt to storage size.

Developing? Is it?

Heh, seems it already attempted that itself

That chip with heatsink gets too hot to touch within a few minutes even on open air, and that was fully enclosed in plastic. It also doesn’t even cover the entire area, though I am not sure how much that matters in this kind of chip.

So I guess it cooked itself.

I wondered how the hell it managed to fool LIDAR, well…

The stunt was meant to demonstrate the shortcomings of relying entirely on cameras — rather than the LIDAR and radar systems used by brands and autonomous vehicle makers other than Tesla.

They even have Android app. I mean, a server app.
Anyway, they still seem to paywall some things.

I did nothing. After using either the default 200MB or the 80MB I pay for it’s supposed to be throttled, but that kinda just… doesn’t happen. I activated a 2nd SIM of those yesterday, same thing. The most I used in a month was some 28GB (out of 80MB), getting me as much as 150Mbps in cities covered by LTE-A from Telekom (this SIM can connect to Telekom, Orange and O2).

Though I just went back to my previous carrier and keep this as a backup. The second SIM I put into a USB modem. May come in handy if I finally decide to try Tailscale.

Searching around, I found someone with the same “issue” for a different provider on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/NoContract/comments/ntul3w/unlimited_data_sim_for_only_45year/

Also a one that was meant to have 64kbps unlimited, but it just… wasn’t throttled. But based on one comment they fixed it later which I assume will happen here too. Almost 4 months so far though.

But perhaps they just don’t care that much. Based on ToS I can be charged extra €1.30/GB (excl. VAT) since I use permanent roaming, and perhaps I will as it is defined as >50% of usage in EU roaming for the past 4 months. Maybe they just rely on that to kick in…? Also the data warning states “…may be probably temporarily restricted.”, which is just so oddly phrased.

But most likely scenario, someone just fucked up the config.

I found yet another such fuck up here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/c6ilbp/bought_the_new_15gb_international_data_pass_didnt/

Dude used up 24GB out of 15GB high-speed data pass.

It can happen both ways though. My current carrier accidentally (I hope) set the limit to half the one stated in ToS. This was reversed already. I assume it was an accident, because they plainly stated the incorrect limit in SMS as well.

The whole comment aside, just for those unaware, if you see someone with a tail in public, or just anywhere outside of sex-centered environment, it’s almost surely a belt.

And finally “We are reaching out to let you know Alexa key phrase based activation will no longer be supported. For better personalization, Alexa will always process audio in background. Don’t worry, your audio is safe with us, we highly care about your privacy.”

Leopards? Faces?

The workaround may be using guns as dildos, which would probably be more obtainable in Texas anyway.

I am just reading this on my laptop, sitting on a bed in shrimp-like shape with laptop (a ThinkPad of course) on top of egg carton (called Eggsbox 360 based on The Two Ronnies skit) which is on top of a pillow while listening to music from a CD being played on an e-waste sourced 5.25" DVD drive attached via SATA to USB that can only reliably load CDs (perhaps because the USB provided power is less than half max spec of 2A) and accessing the internet via USB cellular modem using cheap IoT SIM that has broken (not applied) throttling (instead of 64/32kbps).

My every usage of assistant boiled down to just “What’s this song?”, so I just replaced it with Shazam.

Gemini… having tried it, you will surely get an answer, perhaps based on random magic.

You can also run Bliss OS on x64 desktop. Works well on my 2-in-1 ThinkPad L390 Yoga. It also supports ARM emulation to run ARM apps.
You can also rip out wireless stuff from many of those.

Let’s drink swill milk [Wikipedia] to that.

The swill milk scandal was a major adulterated food scandal in the state of New York in the 1850s. The New York Times reported an estimate that in one year, 8,000 infants died from swill milk.

Swill milk referred to milk from cows fed swill which was residual mash from nearby distilleries. The milk was whitened with plaster of Paris, thickened with starch and eggs, and hued with molasses.

Swill milk dairies were noted for their filthy conditions and overpowering stench both caused by the close confinement of hundreds (sometimes thousands) of cows in narrow stalls where, once farmers tied them, they would stay for the rest of their lives, often standing in their own manure, covered with flies and sores, and suffering from a range of virulent diseases. These cows were fed boiling distillery waste, often leaving the cows with rotting teeth and other maladies. The milk drawn from the cows was routinely adulterated with water, rotten eggs, flour, burnt sugar, and other adulterants with the finished product then marketed falsely as “pure country milk” or “Orange County Milk”.

Around 2020 I think. But it’s HP.

I’d date it around ~2008

Eh, my laptop’s webcam looks worse than this.

I use LibreTorrent since I only have mobile data. It’s nice.

I don’t know how to share URL from F-Droid app, it just tries to export the APK file…

https://gitlab.com/proninyaroslav/libretorrent There’s all the links

Edit: Oh, I am not sure if it was fixed/improved but previously it would pre-allocate full file size on external storage which would just write corresponding size of probably zeroes and then gradually overwrite it.
Perhaps this changelog entry is related to a fix:

POSIX Disk IO option in the settings. This should solve the downloading problem on some Android file systems, for example exFAT on SD cards.

I didn’t try it as my current phone only works with stupid 4GB per file FAT32 so I don’t use the SD card for torrents anymore.

This was a huge problem when I was downloading Wikipedia ZIM file (110GB), it crashed a few times, and even when it finally worked the pre-allocation took a few hours (I think) as it had to write 110GB of nothing.

Edit 2: Yep. Zeros. This file shows up as “110GB” but doesn’t actually take up any (noticeable) free space on internal storage and it gets generated immediately. On SD card (at least in prior versions) it would actually write all of that first, which unless you were looking to partially prevent data recovery is unwanted.
