A whole boat that floats, what a concept! 😃

Ooh, actually doing Acorn and BBC shizzle at school might predate Pascal and COBOL!

Jumping on the Age Verification? Bandwagon. Not sure if I did Pascal or COBOL first though!

Today in I'm not saying it's programmed obsolescence but it's programmed obsolescence. My five year old iPad is refusing to install the latest update because it doesn't have 15GB of spare space available. Nor will it ever have that amount of free space as the OS takes up most of the 32GB storage.

Aye, going to run this current phone into the ground, each new iteration doesn't seem to be adding much so not seeing any reason to upgrade!

NexPhone is a desktop replacement smartphone that multi-boots Android, Linux and Windows 11 NexPhone can boot into Windows 11 on Arm on the go and it comes with a custom tile-based UI with progressive web apps. Nex Computer has been tinkering with...

Found out about it through this post:

"Reserve with $199 to lock in $549. Pay the rest later."

But ships from the US so likely to be import taxes I guess?

Also concerned I can't find anything about the OS either on their own website or elsewhere, but that might be because it doesn't have a very unique name and it's hard to search 😉

Sailfish OS: Clarifying claims about open/closed source, security and privacy @Zilvinas, it would be very tedious to reply point by point to the very inaccurate (and bad faith) opinions you quote from the GrapheneOS forum. Instead, I will just reply on my take on SFOS security....

There seems to be something of a flame war going on: Jolla versus Graphene versus Jason Nevins. It's not something I can comment on myself unfortunately:

This is an interesting device running Android, Debian and Windows 11 (after a reboot) with an option to run in desktop mode. An older but long term supported processor and I can't find any more details about the NexOs operating system?

The Making Of: Dungeon Master, A Truly Trailblazing First-Person RPG "I think in a certain sense we were a little bit too early"

What year is it? Who's the President?

A charming Treecreeper peeks out from behind a mossy tree trunk, its tiny head tilted inquisitively as if it’s just been discovered mid-game. Its delicate, streaked brown plumage blends perfectly with the bark, while its bright white chest and curious gaze stand out against the soft, green woodland backdrop.

How delightful! A Treecreeper is playing hide and seek in your feed. 😀
