The only FE that had a headphone jack was the Note FE, and that was in 2017. Every other FE phone has just been a cheaper S series option.

The Note FE was also just a rebranded Note7 with a smaller battery.

Projectivy is great. Some bugs here and there, but overall I love the much simpler UI and that I can actually keep my “continue watching” row at the top.

It’d be cool if Mozilla could just stick with one thing for more than a couple months. Even if that thing is terrible. Right now it’s like some physical embodiment of ADHD is running the company.

Google wants your app to handle payments through Play Services so they can get a cut. I think it’s technically allowed now to have external payment links in certain cases, but sometimes it’s just easier to remove the thing Google is mad at even if they’re in the wrong.

Again, though, that commit is only for the Google Play variant. Maybe some weird branch merging thing happened and it ended up in the main branch accidentally, but it shouldn’t have made it to F-DROID.

0.76 should only exist for the Play Store. Donation links had to be removed in the Google Play variant: https://github.com/LemmyNet/jerboa/commit/ea2776441b4f76ff66f7beb7b64e5291101af5c5.

Not sure why F-DROID would pick up changes from a different branch and build them.

The screen would get smashed immediately.

Techno might be unknown, because that’s a genre of music, but I’ve definitely seen the Tecno name around.

That’s not how it was done before, though. It wouldn’t download update A, start installing A, then trigger downloading update B while A was installing. A would have to finish installing before B could even start downloading.

Especially for smaller updates, the overhead of the network handshaking to start the download can actually make doing 3/4 downloads at once faster than sequencing them. For larger updates, it matters less, but it’s not a negative.

You can still use an app while the update is downloading. You only can’t while the update is installing, and installations still have to happen sequentially (limitation of Android). It only really matters if you want to specifically use an update right away, but then you can just manually trigger the update for just that app.

Not to defend the mega corporation, but companies file patents for ridiculous things all the time that never end up actually being made or used.

I don’t even want to use EGS on Windows. Steam may be clunky, but Epic is unusably slow.

I have a 4GB Raspberry Pi 5 running Home Assistant and it’s doing well.

For comparison, the Pi has a 4-core A76 processor while the CM3588 has 4 A76 cores plus another 4 A55 cores. I think it’ll do fine.

The 2K Launcher in the Steam edition was entirely useless and not even technically required to get the game to run. It just added an extra step of waiting for an interstitial launcher to load so you could press Play a second time, and you could tell Steam to just run the game executable directly to bypass it entirely.

A lot of these scam operations are effectively staffed by slaves.

The last time I looked into HarmonyOS, it was an intentionally vague umbrella name for a family of operating systems and kernels. On phones and tablets, HarmonyOS was a fork of Android 10 (this was when 13 was new). On embedded devices, it was a Linux kernel fork. There were supposedly some unifying features and APIs between them, but the documentation felt very much like Huawei didn’t actually want you to know what HarmonyOS is.

I could theoretically see an AI model being useful for ANC that doesn’t just block out steady noise but can also try to predict rhythmic and varying sounds, but I don’t think anyone’s actually done that yet.

Tensor is just the brand name for Google’s in-house-designed processors.

Feels like there’s a lot of context missing in both your post here and where you link.

Like others have said, ZigBee is the way to go for low-traffic things like temperature sensors. It uses a lot less power than WiFi, so battery-powered devices can last for months on a CR2032.

I’ve got some Aqara temperature/humidity sensors that I have hooked up to my Smartthings Hub and then imported into Home Assistant through the cloud, but you can use any ZigBee adapter that works with Home Assistant: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/using-aqara-temp-and-humidity-sensor/408166/9.

I also recently got some Sensibo Elements boxes, which are wall-powered WiFi air quality sensors that include temperature/humidity. They have an official HA integration. If you go for them, don’t worry about the sale countdown on the website; it doesn’t actually seem to ever end.
