having to do a firmware update on my soldering iron
You don’t. It works perfectly fine OOTB. Can’t speak for the Pinecil v2 with Bluetooth and the companion app but I have v1 and the software been stable and bug-free enough I’ve never even given a thought to updating the firmware on it
Me. $350 off and $100 worth of storage upgrades on a Pixel 9 pro was worth it for me. Phones now are expensive as fuck but getting a ~40% discount on a brand new product made it easier to accept.
Thanks for the info! Just struggling to find a suitable tempered glass protector now since the pixel 9s moved to the ultrasonic style fingerprint reader.
Pixel 9? If so, what screen protector did you go with?
Just got one and the screen protector I bought doesn’t work with the new style fingerprint sensor, so looking for a known-working brand

I have a few mechanical keyboard projects that I need to print cases for and a chassis for a compact NAS build that I’m almost done tweaking and need to print eventually. Just functional stuff really
It’s because the original image macro that this is based on was about piracy, saying something along the lines of “I bring a certain ‘just torrent it’ vibe to the conversion that the riaa just doesn’t like.”
Their reuse of the macro is indirectly an answer or a continuation of it that can be seen as acknowledging the original message.
In addition to the ones listed:
Matrix client (Element, Shildichat, Fluffy chat, etc.)
XMPP client (Conversations, Monocles Chat, Blabber, etc.)
SimpleX Chat
Briar
None of them are tied to your phone number if that’s what you mean by non voip.
Tried ElementX but ran into issues while getting it working with a selfhosted matrix server. After setting up dendrite (matrix server) and sliding-sync server (asynchronous message history syncing; which it requires) I still wasn’t able to get past the initial sync screen. Are you hosting your own matrix server, did you use it with a public server, or have you not tried using it yet?
I see now, that makes sense why you are building the image since it was set up that way. I don’t know why projects set up the compose file to build the image when they already have a publicly available image to use; it just creates unnecessary friction for people who just want to test out the software. Anyway, using that image should work for you, but feel free to ask if you run into any issues.
Why are you building the image yourself? Not that there’s a problem with that necessarily, but it seems a bit wasteful of your resources unless you have a specific reason to do so. There’s a docker image (quay.io/invidious/invidious:latest) built by the developers that gets updated pretty frequently. I’ve been using it for years now and it’s been working perfectly fine for me the whole time.
Even if you need something just once, just install it and then uninstall it, takes like 10 seconds.
apt install foo && apt remove foo
That’s essentially what nix-shell -p does. Not a special feature of nix, just nix’s way of doing the above.
Actually using it though is pretty convenient; it disappears on its own when I exit the shell. I used it just the other day with nix-shell -p ventoy to install ventoy onto an ssd, I may not need that program again for years. Just used it with audible-cli to download my library and strip the DRM with ffmpeg. Probably won’t be needing that for a while either.
The other thing to keep in mind is that since Nix is meant to be declarative, everything goes in a config file, which screams semi-permenant. Having to do that with ventoy and audible-cli would just be pretty inconvenient. That’s why it exists; due to how Nix is, you need a subcommand for temporary one-off operations.
If you’re ok with just file storage sftpgo has been solid for me for years now. Does sftp ftp and WebDAV (like nextcloud). Webui isn’t as pretty but it’s fast. Mobile apps will be various sync apps with sftp or WebDAV support. On Android folder sync pro is pretty good for keeping documents and pictures backed up
They did. Its called airmessage. Has been around for almost 3 years now
I can’t believe this hasn’t gotten any comments yet. This is a great post OP! Thank you for providing such an information dense and thorough contribution here.
Edit: through -> thorough
Great read. I’m expecting the next wave of Redditors on June 30th after their 3rd party app stop working. And update! I think the threadiverse has broken 200K signups as of today. Definitely an explosion from even a month ago. Thanks for linking here too OP, I love seeing these interesting articles written by smaller publications. That’s something I’ve always loved about Hacker News, and seeing it here is simply awesome!
Holy crap that’s awesome! I’d be lucky to get 1 minute out of my trash Cyberpower UPS once the power goes out. Thanks for the informative post OP! And for the inspiration!
I think ejabberd or another other xmpp server would have been my first choice for a service like this by a long shot. If only we had some good iOS clients to go to. While I’m on android, most of the family and some of the friends use iOS, so it was kind of a non-starter from that alone.
Edit: log -> long
It’s an older Panasonic ToughBook CF-C2 with an ExpressCard34 slot I’d say circa 2013. I have a gigabit Ethernet adapter jammed in there for WAN. I’ve been using the setup for maybe 8 years and it’s been ultra reliable for me.
