I care a moderate amount about audio quality, but my bigger gripes with Bluetooth generally involve the latency and inconvenience of switching devices (even with multipoint).

Dan seems to have trouble sticking with a single project. Sometimes it feels like he announces some new thing every week that never gets finished.

It never said “do not drink” to be fair

The only FE that had a headphone jack was the Note FE, and that was in 2017. Every other FE phone has just been a cheaper S series option.

The Note FE was also just a rebranded Note7 with a smaller battery.

Projectivy is great. Some bugs here and there, but overall I love the much simpler UI and that I can actually keep my “continue watching” row at the top.

The screen would get smashed immediately.

Still didn’t shatter

Techno might be unknown, because that’s a genre of music, but I’ve definitely seen the Tecno name around.

That’s not how it was done before, though. It wouldn’t download update A, start installing A, then trigger downloading update B while A was installing. A would have to finish installing before B could even start downloading.

Especially for smaller updates, the overhead of the network handshaking to start the download can actually make doing 3/4 downloads at once faster than sequencing them. For larger updates, it matters less, but it’s not a negative.

You can still use an app while the update is downloading. You only can’t while the update is installing, and installations still have to happen sequentially (limitation of Android). It only really matters if you want to specifically use an update right away, but then you can just manually trigger the update for just that app.

I have a 4GB Raspberry Pi 5 running Home Assistant and it’s doing well.

For comparison, the Pi has a 4-core A76 processor while the CM3588 has 4 A76 cores plus another 4 A55 cores. I think it’ll do fine.

In JavaScript it would be “true” for some reason

For not being that good at breakdancing?

So you would say they’re comparable then? Maybe even analogous?

I could theoretically see an AI model being useful for ANC that doesn’t just block out steady noise but can also try to predict rhythmic and varying sounds, but I don’t think anyone’s actually done that yet.

Tensor is just the brand name for Google’s in-house-designed processors.

Feels like there’s a lot of context missing in both your post here and where you link.

Like others have said, ZigBee is the way to go for low-traffic things like temperature sensors. It uses a lot less power than WiFi, so battery-powered devices can last for months on a CR2032.

I’ve got some Aqara temperature/humidity sensors that I have hooked up to my Smartthings Hub and then imported into Home Assistant through the cloud, but you can use any ZigBee adapter that works with Home Assistant: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/using-aqara-temp-and-humidity-sensor/408166/9.

I also recently got some Sensibo Elements boxes, which are wall-powered WiFi air quality sensors that include temperature/humidity. They have an official HA integration. If you go for them, don’t worry about the sale countdown on the website; it doesn’t actually seem to ever end.

I think you’re overthinking this, and extrapolating limited data way too far.

For one, of course historically rich countries are going to be hosting more technology. Tech is expensive, and less developed countries are called that because they’re less developed, which includes electricity grids, internet, economic power, and so on.

Another issue is that just because a Mastodon server is hosted in a particular country, doesn’t mean only people in or from that country can make an account there. Sure, there are some servers that want to keep their communities specific to their local area, but the vast majority have no restrictions. Anyone from anywhere can sign up.

If you’re trying to figure out how to make it so historically poor countries have the most servers instead, you’re going to have to figure out how to fund and manage infrastructure expansion.

It feels like you’re coming at this with the assumption of “every country has the resources to spin up hundreds of social media servers, but they’re just not interested”, which is kind of a weird conclusion to come to after recognizing the historical impact of colonialism and the privilege differences it’s led to.
