I know about WayDroid, but never heard of ATL.

So yeah, while we have the fundamentals, we still don’t have an OS that’s stable enough as a daily driver on phones.

And this isn’t a Linux issue. It’s mostly because of proprietary drivers. GrapheneOS already has the issue that it only works on Pixel phones.

I can imagine, bringing a Linux only mobile OS to life is even harder. I wish android phones were designed in a way, that there is a driver layer and an OS layer, with standerdized APIs to simply swap the OS layer for any unix-like system.

And what exactly does that have to do with GrapheneOS?

not necessarily… I mean If they run under the same VM, I’d be fine with that as well…but having a sandboxed wrapper would for sure be nice.

if there was something that could run android apps virtualized, I’d switch in a heartbeat

Yeah… I also miss doom-scrolling unixporn and ergomechkeyboards in here.

I guess we can expect another burst of Reddit refugees

If buying ain’t owning, than downloading…

oh wait, that’s our slogan

Word… this is why I used spotify for a long time, when it used to be a good service… pirating wasn’t worth the hassle.

now almost everything is worth the hassle

For USB sure… it’s kinda “newish”. But, I mean, they could’ve intervened much sooner, when glue became the standard for assembling phones.

Waterproof

Strongly agree!

Looking back, I suspect this was only an argument to make them hard to repair, as always, just worded in a sense like it’d benefit the customer.

FFS, just add some rubber… We’ve used rubber in condoms for centuries (kinda) succesfully, what made them think glue’d be better… I ain’t gonna put glue on my ding-dong, if that’s what they’re after all these years.

while 2027 is better than nothing, I still wonder why it took them so long. Glue in smartphones has been around for probably a decade now.

Also, I think, anything that has a battery, should be user replacable… even teeny-tiny earbuds.

Can we bring back the charging as well, and not just the USB cable… Oh, and while you’re at it, screws instead of glue, to replace batteries would be awesome.

Thx!

Unfortunately, wireguard does not run on low-end ARM devices like the yicamera

the thing is, the yi cameras used to work great for the past few years… sufficiently, for the price I paid them for - 13 bucks each.

This! I mean… what’s so special about their proprietary solution compared to what’s already known about a specific technology.

In case of camera devices, RTSP is RTSP… there’s no other magic or whatsoever behind it. You also can’t do any AI magic on these devices either. So any extra enhancements have to be done on the servers or apps.

Hence, they should be forced to give us full access to the basic stuff, and if they want to add some glitter on top of that and charge for it, by all means… they should go ahead… If someone wants and needs it, they’ll happily pay for it.

I’ve bought a bunch of Yi Home 1080s a few years back for cheap… I think it was 13 bucks each.

yeah… I know about yi-hack.

The thing is, I’ve installed some of them at my parents house.

Therefore, I’m writing a bash-script (should work for all cameras and devices) where the device opens up a reverse SSH tunnel to a public server, and let’s one access the cameras (RTSP) from frigate, even if they’re located elsewhere.

I bought them on amazon 5 years ago… My hopes for a refund are very low.

Lol… It is indeed common knowledge… I was just joking.

Using Teams as a freelancer with multiple clients who roll their own user management is a PITA.

Thank you! Finally someone has the guts to say this publicly
