Theres a flatpak for that.

I suspect that Trump offering asylum to Afrikaners has more to do with USA being pissed at SA for the Gaza case than him thinking there is a "South African Genocide". He's just trying to stir the pot but generally South Africans don't take this seriously. Some people on here though...

Picking stuff up with my toes. I use the two big ones like chopsticks or just scrunch something up with all of them together. My toes can spread out as wide as my fingers, so it's easy to manipulate things with them. Also, I am very well balanced on one leg, probably because of doing this for so long.

This power is more and more useful as I get older and find it more of a chore to bend over, with my beer belly getting in the way (I'm almost 50, it's a sign of success!). If it's below my waist I'm going to pick it up with my foot 50% basically.

I live in a warm climate and hardly ever wear closed shoes luckily, I know some places it wouldn't be practical..

Played with my kid yesterday - event is over just get the latest update and Sober is working again

Sober works by emulating android with a few hacks to make desktop use better. Actually great and up to date flatpak

My mum was a librarian for 20 years. Benefits include:

Getting to read all the books before anyone else. Nobody complains if you are reading at work. No library fines for overdue books and no limit on how many books you can take out. Quiet work environment.

I actually did an internship at the library - wonder how I manage to organise that - there is a large amount of repetitive manual labour involved as I recall it, mostly handled by the junior staff

Does anyone else feel ill when seeing some AI images? It's like an out of tune piano for me

Yeah I was 100% Opera on desktop and mobile until they switched to chromium and broke everything from before. Still pissed about that, lost all my bookmarks and notes at one point.

Libreelec on raspberry pi 4 (Kodi) works for me but it really needs a new YouTube app. That's the only issue really

What like OpenAI?

Just checked, they said it's done!

Deepseek api is down today - probably a result of their viral success recently..

I dropped out of the IT game before I even started (dropped out of an IT qualification 20yrs ago), and can honestly say it was totally worth it.

Now I spend some happy evenings working on IT side projects related to my main career (entertainment) and it's fun. I even make extra cash doing freelance programming but because it's not my main hustle I get to choose to say no.

What I'm saying is while you are at the hardware doing what you enjoy, there is nothing stopping you from doing freelance IT work on the side, just look for the projects that inspire you. It's not all or nothing decision..

Actually capacity exceeds the original spec. Battery indicator seems accurate though.

Thank you that was the idea, In the missing tutorial I explain that I used batteries from a power bank with a broken usb. So yeah re-using stuff, this tablet should last 10 more years at least! https://www.circusscientist.com/upgrade-your-tablet-with-replaceable-batteries/

Really? It never happened to me even after shorting one once.. There are some super cheap ones at the local Chinese store I was thinking of trying out, the brand ones are pretty reasonable already though, so that's what I use. Maybe will give the cheapies a miss at least for indoor projects

You are correct - I forgot to link to the tutorial page on my website where I'm pretty sure I explained that I'm fully aware of the risk and nobody should do this

If you get more likes on your comment I am willing to test this

Context I live in a country with an unreliable postal service and shit currency. Also batteries were free from an old power bank
