I still miss using my iPAQ h4350. It still works; might be time to fire up Doom4CE…

Agreed. I’ve been using Krita quite a bit lately and honestly, it’s really good. I haven’t used an Adobe product for a few years, but it’s been able to do everything I want it to do so far.

Yeah, switched to a different company for kitchen stuff, bought it on their site and everything, felt good about it.

Delivery day comes, guess who delivered the package? Amazon. So that was great.

That’s definitely been true in the past, but the gap’s narrowed a lot. GIMP (with plugins) and Krita cover most Photoshop-style workflows, and Inkscape does a pretty good job with vector work. For many graphic design tasks, Linux has solid native tools now—just takes a bit of adjustment if you’re used to Adobe.

“I wrote an email to Google Gryzzl to say, ‘you have access to my computer, is that right?’”, he added.

Apparently one of the people on the Rebble board is working on the project:

Some people are working on this for my new company, Core Devices, including Joshua (also one of the Rebble board members), Gerard (firmware) and crc32 (Cobble). We’ll be joined soon by Steve Penna, my OG Pebble colleague who helped build the Pebble Android app.

Heiko, the brilliant mind behind much of Pebble’s aesthetic and engineering beauty, is helping as technical advisor, along with my first colleague at Pebble, Andrew Witte and another key Pebble design leader, Mark Solomon. Others are helping via the Rebble community Discord.

Preventing cam-out with a Phillips screw is like learning the ways of the Force. It takes patience and skill, something the Empire’s rigid Torx would never understand.

See Dick run. See Jane run. See Sally run. See Spot run.

See Dick run with scissors. See Jane run with scissors. See Sally run with scissors. See Spot run with scissors.

Spot is a good dog.

Spot runs in front of Jane. See Jane trip. See Jane fall. See Jane fall on her own scissors.

Oh no, Jane!

See Dick trip over Jane. See Dick fall. See Dick fall on his own scissors.

Oh no, Dick!

See Sally trip over Dick. See Sally fall. See Sally fall on her own scissors.

Oh no, Sally!

See Spot panic. See Spot stab Dick. See Spot stab Dick 13 times.

Oh no, Spot!

Spot is a bad dog.

I’ve moved to Garmin now, but I have an ocean’s worth of salt over Pebble as well.

LET US LISTEN TO YOU IT WILL BE FINE.

My solution to this problem is Jellyfin, fed by usenet-backed sonarr/radar and Tubesync to pull in YouTube channel subscriptions. Those are added to a Jellyfin library which is accessible right next to movies and tv shows.

This is all through the Jellyfin app on a 2019 Nvidia Shield Pro. It’s a perfect couch-friendly setup. For just regular YouTube browsing, SmartTube can be installed on the Shield and on your phone. You can then cast to the SmartTube app on the Shield instead of to the YouTube app.

You may also want to look into Usenet instead of torrents when you’re researching. Sonarr/Radarr/Readarr etc all work (in my opinion) better with Usenet.

You’ll need to pay some, but the reliability is amazing, which is extremely helpful for the partner acceptance factor. I pay for two providers (newsdemon is primary and eweka is a backup) and two indexers (drunkenslug and nzbfinder), and everything has been rock solid reliable for years. Download speeds are also MUCH faster than torrents.

Combine this setup with overseerr (or jellyseerr) so your partner can find their own things to download and you might be able to get them back on board.

Plus, no flaresolverr required!
