  Take your thumb and gently push the eye back into shape from its elongated form. Push a bit and then check if your vision improved. Repeat until the focus point is correct. Be careful not to overshot the sweet spot.

  Well I guess my bubble is pretty strong 😅.

  Okay celebrating shareholder value I get in an indoctrinated pure* capitalist society.

  But praising a monopoly? Wasn’t that one of the main point capitalism should prevent?

  The free market brings about competitors when they are needed.

  Which does not hold true in reality due to various reasons and dynamics like entry cost…

  That story is really sad. To me it seems like a failing of the parents/education system to not teach the son who was 17 that selling a kidney is a bad idea.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Intel CPU Temperature Monitoring Driver For Linux Now Unmaintained After Layoffs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There is /s but I opted not to use it. I am quite surprised that people think people exist that would praise a monopoly and celebrate sharholder value. Sadly people thinking that means that they have encountered people who hold such beliefs seriously. Which is quite sad.

  I thought the second sentence made that clear but apparently not.

  How did you get that downvote? Must have been a mistake.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Intel CPU Temperature Monitoring Driver For Linux Now Unmaintained After Layoffs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Monopolies are good for the consumer as it makes purchasing decisions easier. Some tech markets such as the GPU one show how well a monopoly can work for shareholders.

  I just wish one could donate to firefox development specifically. Then they could rid it of all the ai and tracking stuff.

  I used this script:

  import Axios from 'axios'
  import OldFS from 'fs'
  import { PromiseChain } from '@feather-ink/ts-utils'
  
  const fs = OldFS.promises
  
  const image = process.argv[2]
  const destination = `http://${process.argv[3]}/vfs/ota`
  const now = process.argv[4] === 'now'
  const once = process.argv[4] === 'once'
  
  async function triggerUpdate(): Promise<void> {
    console.log('Uploading new binary')
    const file = await fs.readFile(image)
  
    await Axios({
      method: 'POST',
      url: destination,
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/octet-stream',
        'Content-Length': file.byteLength
      },
      data: file
    })
    console.log('Finished uploading')
  }
  
  (async () => {
    const updateChain = new PromiseChain()
    console.log(`Watching file '${image}' for changes\nWill upload to '${destination}'!`)
    if (once) {
      await triggerUpdate()
      return
    }
    if (now)
      await updateChain.enqueue(triggerUpdate)
    OldFS.watch(image, async (eventType) => {
      if (eventType !== 'change')
        return
      let succ = false
      do {
        try {
          console.log('Change detected')
          await updateChain.enqueue(triggerUpdate)
          succ = true
        } catch (e) {
          console.error(e)
          console.log('Retrying upload')
        }
      } while (!succ)
      console.log('Upload finished')
    })
  })()

  Hahahah. Awesome. Have fun! You just need a simple webserver. The builtin one will do and then you use the ota functions of the ESP IDF.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Back in school my friends all flashed their mcus with 4-8MB images over serial with 115200 baud. I set up ota updates over wifi. They were all fascinated by my speedy flashes. However when I offered to help them set it up not one was interested because their setup was working as is and slow flashing is not a “bad” thing since it gave them an excuse to do.other things.

  Very interesting. I hope this passes as an actual Standart. I looked around but couldn’t find information on how to enable it in the Webbrowser. It just says firefox is not supported.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Google about to destroy the web?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would love a if there was a standard websites would use to receive donations. An integrated browser addon that track what you visit and gives you a review before distributing funds after each month would be great. It should accumulate money to avoid transaction fees for tiny amounts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Saying "over" on the radio is like the null byte at the end of a string.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think a semicolon is semantically correct in this case. It suggest you want to add something. That’s why it is used in programming. You are making statements.

  Maybe we should use a . after return statements to signal the end of our statement stream.

  I don’t see how this gives any insight into how your subscription price is being used for products relevant to you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨public services of an entire german state switches from Microsoft to open source (Libreoffice, Linux, Nextcloud, Thunderbird)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And there could be insight into whether the money is actually used for developing the relevant application.

  The auto connect foe bluethooth is really infuriating. Windows and android both don’t have options for disabling auto connect.

  On linux you can only select wbtween trust and no tust which effectively means auto connect. BUT WHY DONT THEY JUST CALL IT AUTO CONNECT.

  It’s a real bummer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨13 Creepy Things Your Smartphone Knows About You⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The issue is that the web login requires their app. All major banks in my country have this requirement but I will have another look when the time for a new phone comes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨13 Creepy Things Your Smartphone Knows About You⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I moved over to mostly open source apps where possible. My main issue will be the banking apps that insist on safety net.

  Graphene os is great on paper but I would like to buy a different brand than pixel like fairphone.

  Thanks for the link. I just setup joplin and joplin server.

  I migrated all my old samsung notes to joplin.

  Sadly I still can’t replace OneNote. There is no open source alternative for an infinite canvas with proper custom server based sync that helps to resolve conflicts. Logseq looks pretty good but the server sync implementation is not open source.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OneNote to perish alongside Windows 10.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Also it seems like every one note version is good at some task or aähas access to formatting/organization options that others can only view.

  I wish there was an open source solution in a similar manner to immich (quality and organization) wise.

  Ähm. So your not gonna like this but I just connect with vscode remote-ssh and drag’n drop em from the os file explorer into the vscode one.

  So long story short scp I guess.
