Looks like Wintergatan went electric

Mostly navigation and handsfree phonecalls

Apparently not… Is it somehow still widely used. It’s the most likely paper to give you paper cuts though https://physicsworld.com/a/researchers-cut-to-the-chase-on-the-physics-of-paper-cuts/

My previous phone was a Nokia 6289

A colleague had a Nokia 9110 back in 1998, that was very advanced back then

I still have my HTC touch dual and my HTC Magic in a drawer somewhere. Those were such exciting phones, coming from a Nokia.

Flashing Cyanogen Rom and custom recoveries felt so bleeding edge. Now a new phone is just an incremental update. A lot more stable and capable, bit kinda boring

That’s a very valid point

True. Didn’t think of it that way

347 apparently, across 7 years of operation

I think messing up on NASA projects will hurt a company way more. Of course aviation is supposed to be safe, but even the 737 Max has flown thousands of hours. Comparing how many people that have flown on them, versus how many that have been hurt/killed, is still a small number, which is still is supposed to be zero of course.

Traversing space, a pinnacle of engineering, is quite another level of danger, and if you insist on your product being functional and safe, and then kills two astronauts, would cause a whole different level of backlash

In this particular situation, if Boeing says it’s safe, I would be inclined to trust them, because if they make the return happen, and it fails, Boeing is done fore. As a crew member though, I would pass for sure and wait for a Dragon

It seems to be a P7 problem, that affects some users. It seems to occur after the Android 14 update. My wife’s phone does the same. Some people solve it by downgrading to Android 13

Thanks! Never knew that was a feature of Nova

Credit card fraud

It Cory Doctorow

He does a lot of work as special advisor for EFF and also know for the invention of the word Enshittification

He’s very anti-DRM, so much that he doesn’t sell his books on Amazon, because they refuse to sell them DRM free

He’s always worth a listen, for instance on This week in tech
