Yeah exactly, well said. I think for a lot of people the advent of paywalls felt like taking away a free thing, instead of a return to the norm. Personally when it comes to journalism I prefer a paywall to advertiser-supported.

The argument that paywalls somehow ruin the open parts of the Web always fell flat for me. It is trivial to contribute to the Web for free if one wishes. Nobody is forced to paywall their content.

Looks great, can old Google location data be imported?

I've been impressed with F-Droid's press releases. If they have a snowball's chance in hell of stopping this, they are certainly giving it a clear and concise effort.

Siri is bad but at least it has natural language processing. I think it's so funny how CEOs have no idea how LLMs work.

Over a year ago Apple literally ran an ad showing off an "Apple Intelligence" feature that you could tell nobody at Apple ran by the actual engineers before deciding it was possible. It (of course) has still not been released.

I was going to report to the mod but... the mod is the one who posted it. Guess I'm unsubbing.

Thanks, I fixed my comment, the article said "similar to that found in the Kindle Colorsoft" and I didn't read further.

This is really cool, I love that it has a gentle front light. But pricing aside, having to take off the wall to charge every three months is a dealbreaker. I wonder if a solar panel along the top edge of the frame would have been sufficient to keep the battery charged for most situations.

Regardless I hope we see more of these. Even if the ~~Kaleido~~ Spectra 6 screen is FAR from photo quality.

But there are dozens of people in this very thread who if I am understanding correctly are willing to offer the same service for free to prove their point that Plex is evil.
