I don’t do computer games. Could you explain me what is the deal with this discounted game?




Scientists may have spotted a long-sought triplet superconductor — a material that can transmit both electricity and electron spin with zero resistance. That ability could dramatically stabilize quantum computers while slashing their energy use. Early experiments suggest the alloy NbRe behaves unlike any conventional superconductor. If verified, it could become a cornerstone of next-generation quantum and spintronic technology.


I’ve been having this disrupting ideas for for years, and it seems that every year I (sadly) get one more:

  • actually open source software all the way down to the kernel and drivers.
  • user replaceable batteries.
  • micro SD slot.
  • 3.5mm audio jack.
  • zero glue.
  • free schematics.
  • parts available for purchase.

Does the phone costs double? I don’t care. Shut up and take my money!


That’s stupid.

Buy a privacy screen protector and stop wasting battery juice.


I dream of a system with the same philosophy as unix: simple tools with one and only one job, that pipe with each other.

perhaps, defining some “common ground formats” to smooth the in/out across apps.

developers and apps will eventually come. but drivers, that depends on the manufacturers



What would it take to start from a clean slate? I mean, a mad lad said about 35 years ago “UNIX expensive. I’m gonna make my own OS”

What are the obstacles for something like this to happen for phones? I assume device drivers, but probably it is much more complicated than that


Dumb question: how is this affecting projects like Graphene OS?

Can android just be forked and detached from google?

I am guessing that despite being “open source”, the project depends on many binary blobs to interface with the wireless devices ??




It seems to be an AI accelerator. Without reading the source, to me seems that that’s the game. Interesting.
