No, I setup a MacOS VM on my home Linux server using docker-osx which runs a bluebubbles server. It doesn’t use Matrix.

This is cool but I’m happy self hosting bluebubbles.
The weight issue is why I’m looking forward to (hopefully) seeing the Aptera make it to production. Being super aerodynamic and lighter weight so that it can charge up to 40 miles a day on solar alone. Lithium batteries would be better suited for this form factor.
If I’m home, I use just one towel and keep using it for like a week or two. If I’m in a hotel, they usually have so many towels so I’ll use the whole variety and fresh ones each day. It’s nice, but too lazy to constantly be washing towels when I’m home lol.

This time over telnet.
telnet
is an insecure protocol. Ideally you should use ssh
instead but most which some modern BBS’s support both. Of course if you want to dial in on legacy “authentic” hardware then SSH isn’t possible.
💡You can SSH (or telnet) from your phone using Termux and it works pretty well (though admittedly not as good without full ANSI support). It doesn’t use full height of screen but is still usable. BBS’s could be enhanced to support that though.
Here’s an example of how one looks on my phone:
ssh NEW@bbs.bottomlessabyss.net -p 2222 -c aes256-cbc
I wonder if Cash4Gold would take them. Lol I remember seeing this commercial as a kid.
Obtanium is really good option too and can handle more than just browser updates. Pretty much any Android APK release can be setup and it supports a wide variety of different repository sources.
…And we’re calling it AiPhone! * applause from audience *
I enjoyed my time with Windows 7. I even remember the Windows 7 launch party marketing. Never upgraded to 10, certainly not upgrading to 11. Happy with my adventures in Linux.
Hmm… Wonder how AI predicting what a photo of someone should look like will compare to how they actually do. Guess it’s not that different than the automatic filters phones have to make everyone look better.
Read this as “Scientists just lied to open NASA’s asteroid canister”.
Earlier ThinkPads had the best keyboards IMO. I also really liked using the track point over a trackpad.
First one I had was a T61 and loved it. Later on had to get a newer one for school, a W541 but didn’t enjoy the feel of it as much.
Well they eventually pulled the plug on iPods…
Took them “only” 10 years to add mouse support for iPads, something that’s been used for decades.
So surely, give it 10 more years and then they’ll “revolutionize” using a bigger external display for iPhone (and not just screen mirroring) :D
They’ll do it, they just take their sweet time.
I’ll admit the hardware on iPhones is excellent but waaayy overkill for iOS.
Let me install my own third party apps w/o the App store (I know altstore exists, but needing to renew apps every few days is super janky). If I spend my money on a device, I should be allowed to put whatever I want on it, however I want. Let me, the consumer accept the risks of doing so.
Let me use HDMI out over USB-C to an external monitor and have a full desktop with ability to run desktop class apps. Let me use the full potential of the chipsets to get actual work done and effectively replace a computer.
Till then, Android it is for me because I can do both these things easily. I know my use cases are more niche, but “Pro” naming on consumer Apple products is just fluff.
Not great but not terrible.
Sad thing is that wouldn’t even be surprising. Could totally imagine an error message like: “This device is using unauthorized components not licensed for your region. Please call AppleCare for service options.”
It helped me break the habit of needing to use arrow keys / mouse for navigating around text. Why is this important? The 1-2 seconds to reach over from home row add up. For example, instead of scrolling the mouse several turns to get to the top of a file, I can just type gg
. All without needing to strain my wrist to reach over for the less efficient methods.
Once you master navigation with just keyboard (sans arrow keys) you really feel like a speed demon and the alternative begins to feel clunky. It may not seem like it at first because you have to retrain the way you interact with text files that goes against the habits you’re used too.
Apart from that, for any sort of Linux server management, vim or vi are usually installed so it’s a good skill to have if you quickly need to tweak a config for example. Nano works but is less efficient from an editing perspective.
I work in the terminal a lot and also use tmux
with vim keybindings. I love being able to navigate entirely mouse free.
I use Vim emulation wherever possible. I enjoy using a web browser with vim keybindings to navigate around and reduce mouse usage. Vim is a paradigm that many tools incorporate or have plugins to do so because it is just that useful once you learn it.
Vim is not meant to be an IDE. Things like intellisense don’t work (as) well from my experience. But I just use vim plugins in my IDEs so I can get best of both.
It may seem that way because it’s a complete paradigm shift of how you interact with an editor. Once you understand that, then it becomes a very valuable tool that will make you more efficient. It is a big time investment but the payoff is worth it.
I still need to use IDEs for software development at work but I have to have some sort of Vim emulation on top of them.
Happy to be part of the top 1% in this case.
