resistance to accidental drops or scratches and protection from dust and water
sufficiently durable batteries which can withstand at least 800 charge and discharge cycles while retaining at least 80% of their initial capacity
rules on disassembly and repair, including obligations for producers to make critical spare parts available within 5-10 working days, and for 7 years after the end of sales of the product model on the EU market
availability of operating system upgrades for longer periods (at least 5 years from the date of the end of placement on the market of the last unit of a product model)
non-discriminatory access for professional repairers to any software or firmware needed for the replacement
Finally! 🎉
Customer replaceable batteries would be nice too — those 800 cycles are not all that much — but I guess it's a tradeoff for dust and water resistance increases with wireless charging and possibly no ports.
Rejoice, this lack of support for blind oppression, is why Hegseth didn't get enough military backing to recommend Martial Law last week... and is to be replaced for that.
Not that many generations far back. It takes several generations for changes to soak in, and that's before taking into account globalization with conflicting world views.
Squirrels sound like the stereotypical ADHD: bouts of frenetic activity, followed by a freeze, frenetic, freeze, etc.
Beavers... I'd rather associate with mild autism: hear water, need to build dam to get rid of the sound, need to chew tree, everything else is secondary.
Not sure why it seems to be using them as opposites.
Some animals have stereotyped behaviors that are easier to understand as the bare behavior, than it is to explain a behavior on the example of "someone who looks like you, but see, they don't always behave or think like you do, you need to take into account personal differences, and not everyone's differences are the same as someone else's, so we will analyze particular behavior traits as..." ...but you've lost your audience at the first comma.
In any case, what shorthand placeholders would you suggest?
The first season had an inspirational theme, but so far the episodes in the second one seem more concerned with Star Wars lore, than with sending any particular message.
We shall wait and see (...which, coincidentally, is in line with the title of this article).
Is Canva going to keep that? In the purchase announcement, they stated that their plan was to add the features of Affinity to Canva, which only has a subscription option.
rely on creative software by Adobe or other companies, for which there is no comparable alternative with Linux support
Corel has comparable features with a single purchase option. Too bad they removed the Linux version.
As for alternatives, Krita, Inkscape, or Blender, are not a 1:1 equivalent, but include features that Adobe is missing. When I used to do visual stuff, they were a good set of tools to complement an Adobe subscription.
There are many community networks out there, but they require more dedication and funding than simply paying an ISP, for a worse service. It's a hard sell to the average doomscroller.
The EFF scaled down their efforts for OpenWireless.org after it became obvious that they'd have to support hundreds of different hardware models, and ultimately abandoned the project.
A couple decades ago, Fon tried to build a mixed community-commercial network with their own standardized hardware, but even the commercial incentive was not enough to keep it afloat in the long run. Some of the hardware got repurposed for community projects, but most of the best placed hotspots ended up in the trash, replaced by municipal and ISP networks.
In many places, fiber is a no-go. Like, in my city there was a large move to get fiber to most houses over a decade ago, but after the first deployment of a handful of ISPs, the city stopped giving permits for additional deployments: lease from one of the existing ISPs, or you're SOL.
