2·25 days agoTelegram isn’t banned in Ukraine. Can’t be that bad.
Pavel Durov had to flee Russia after resisting Putin’s influence on VK. That’s public information known to everyone who cares to spend a minute reading his Wikipedia article.
the EU needs a smartphone brand like…yesterday
Germans, get cooking!
Yes, they incentivize another 0.001%. How is google going to survive this?
Tech geeks acting as multiplication factors are the people who brought Apple from obscurity to mainstream.
Maybe but those 1% of buyers are multiplicators incentivizing others to buy the same phone.
1·1 month agoGamingOnLinux is a shitty spam blog and not a reliable source. We saw Proton-ARM and Waydroid in SteamDB and those could just be internal research that might never see the light of day. That’s it. Everything else is conjecture.
We do know that Valve is working on a new VR headset that will be ARM based though
is enough for most people to assume that an ARM VR headset is coming
An assumption is not knowing a fact.
It would be stupid for Valve to not at least to explore possibilities but to say that we know that Valve is working on an ARM VR headset is not truthful.
Full AOSP compatibility for Pixel devices is a huge reason to buy a Pixel instead of a 3rd party OEM. They’re shooting themselves in the foot.
This is the reason why I’m not a fan of permissive licenses.
If Google is the sole copyright holder, a copyleft license would change nothing because they still have the option to change the license going forward.
1·1 month agoWhich rights do you have?
Plenty. GOG sp. z o.o. is an EU company after all.
Galaxy is free and not required.
It’s a product for paying customers of GOG games. You have rights you don’t have with some open source hobby project.
So does Galaxy?
Heroic is a community “we hope it’s useful but don’t complain when it doesn’t” product.
With Galaxy you are a paying customer who has rights.

The massive problem since quite some time is that I’m not aware of any media player respecting this. VLC used to support it but a decade ago suddenly stopped: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/issues/13982
If you have the originals, maybe encode them again. HandBrake has a nice preview feature.
It wasn’t “half the internet unusable”.
Everything behind the same AWS and Google IPs which is a lot.
I live in Russia
So you pay taxes to Putin. Good to know who actually helps funding the regime.
Telegram is not banned in Ukraine either. There also are no Ukrainian sections against the founder.
I also did not call him a fighter against the regime. You have a vivid imagination.
Russia tried blocking Telegram once but Telegram relies on AWS and Google Cloud, so the blocking attempt backfired, leading to half the internet unusable in Russia, leading to quick back paddling by the Kremlin.
Since Telegram is not banned in either country, it’s the best source for unfiltered news from the front.
Intel tried with OpenAPI because ROCm was not invented here.
I‘m saying whatever the server asks the client, a client can choose to hide the UI elements. Nothing more, nothing less.
Because its competitors care about Not Invented Here instead of building common industry standards.
It sounds like the water indicator stickers did not change color. But they said that water can still get in / water damage can occur regardless.
I also asked for a picture and they flatly refused that they don’t do that. – https://www.reddit.com/r/consolerepair/comments/1lugq83/bricked_switch_2_nintendo_claiming_water_damage/n1y1kga/
