Luckily, I'm not in the US, so that doesn't really apply. But I might look up the relevant laws around here at some point.

I have a broken phone with failed glue lying around. Might be a fun weekend project. Is it still destruction of property if you tell them beforehand that your phone will fry their device?

Edit: Well, not fully broken, but the parts to fix it properly cost more than the device. Even though it has a midrange snapdragon and 12 gigs of ram, 256 gigs of storage. Might try to find out whether there's any way to connect the board to a generic screen, but I'd wager there isn't. Really love the mobile device market.

Edit edit: We're getting really off-topic now, but looks like that board used a MIPI DSI connector, I think? Seems like it is standardised enough that it might be possible to source a generic screen and use it kinda like a sbc? Getting that to work might be the actual fun weekend project hiding here.

You probably don't need me to tell you, but keep good backups. Friend of mine recently had his account nuked without any reason given, and without the possibility of recourse.

I ... I did not know that. Thanks.

I've got a Pixel 8a with Graphene. After the unskippable warning that the device is running a different OS, the actual boot-up is pretty quick.

The compiling of apps after big updates can take a while, but that happens in the background in userspace, after which you're prompted to restart all affected apps.

Guess I'm lucky to have broken the mics on mine by accidentally throwing them in the wash?

If might also just be a testament to how jank Apple Music on Android can be. Anyway, I just hope you find a solution that works well for you.

This is kinda funny to me because I was using Apple Music before, and I honestly feel it's less jank.

searching in a playlist in qobuz

I feel it's been getting better. Like, it isn't perfectly smooth, but I like what I get on the Frontpage way more than what I did with Spotify.

From hints in other comics - mostly not Linux, but Plan9/9front and the BSDs.

Huh, I did not know that. Neat.

It's not a mono-rail, it's an attempt at a better night-train car design. Will it have any success in a market where we already have nightjet, etc.? No idea. But this doesn't seem all that pie in the sky.

Was trying out what video formats worked. One video uploaded successfully, but didn't play. Then the app got kinda laggy, then it crashed.

Probably completely unrelated, the app is pretty new, after all. But I kinda feel like it's my fault.
