And then the warlords steal the food and redistribute it as they see fit.
No, you are willfully misunderstanding my point.
There are still places in the world where slavery is legal, for fuck’s sake. Do you really, truly think things like this could still be true in 2024 if money and what/who you can buy/hire were actually the solution?
Absolutely.
Throwing money at solving the surface layer issues / symptoms is moot, but yes, for every new layer of problem you uncover you can ask "so what are the causes for that" until you reach something that can be fixed wit money.
Og, and I do not believe that this has anything to do with world peace. The nations on earth without hunger problems aren't peaceful utopias either, after all. But on the other hand, hunger does seem to cause a lot of instability...
As others have said, you can completely disable the stock launcher through ADB commands. At that point, if you hit home, you'll be asked which app to perform that action with. Select your launcher, click "Always", and done.
We get birthdays off, not counting towards the 30 days paid holidays, which is completely separate from unlimited paid sick days. Oh, and also since last Wednesday, the entire company is on holidays, we're back 2nd week of January. Doesn't count towards the 30 days, of course 👍
You can’t just throw money at the problem and expect it to just be solved. There are real underlying societal and infrastructure issues in a lot of impoverished countries that need to be solved in order for hunger to be solved. You could ship a billion tons of food to a single starving region and there would still be millions of starving people.
That's a strawman. No-one said "they should just, like, buy enough food to feed the hungry".
When people say it would cost x to solve world hunger, they are talking about those "underlying societal and infrastructure issues".
So, yes. Everything can be solved with money. You can hire people to "fundamentally understand local political dynamics", invest in research, pay to fund the programs that will enable impoverished regions to develop the means to build the infrastructure to feed themselves.
Additionally, simply handing out food would kill the domestic food industry (because who would buy food when billionaires are giving it away for free) and would make the country even more problematic.
Just because this is the idea you have in mind for how to solve hunger, and it is, as you rightly stated, a fucking stupid idea, doesn't make it the only idea.
Newer bathrooms here just don't have doors. Just two right angles. Can't see in from the outside, but don't need to touch a door handle.
It's perfect.
You can even just do Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.
It somehow feels... Wrong, but it just works.
No need to push beginners towards arch, they'll become curious and check it out just for the meme anyways
On an unrelated note, have you heard the good news about our Lord and Savior, NixOS?
For me personally, xdrip+.
Can't switch to a Linux phone unless I can measure my blood glucose :(
Thanks! Yep, same thought about the version checks. I'll spin up a VM for now and see if that allows for suitable experimentation, otherwise fingers crossed I don't brick the device.
The web-server thing is probably safer, agreed, but packaging my own update is just so much more tempting... :D
Oh whoops I thought you were 0v0 🤦🏼♀️ Thanks anyways though :D
Hey, thanks, but that's the A5x, a newer Android tablet. Different hard and software
Fantastic.
Since the zip also includes a bunch of shell scripts, I think it's possible I could also just install ssh directly - but the image will certainly make experimenting in a VM the safer option until something works out... ^^
Oh man, I can't wait to get home from work on Friday (currently stuck on the other side of the country 🫠)
Edit: also, can I somehow buy you a beer/coffee somewhere digitally?
No way!! You're the goat. I spent the day trying to get behind how the cracking worked by making simple examples, and you just... Solve the puzzle :D
Awesoms, thank you so much!! I'll appreciate update this thread if this leads to something :D
Theoretically... But this is 5 levels of knowledge above my head, I fear :D
I own the goddamn device, I should be able to do whatever I want with it...
The device, if connected, reads as mtp. Can't reformat.
Five years ago, I bought a Supernote A5. It was (and mostly still is) a great device for reading and writing on an eInk display, and it runs plain old linux.
The deciding reason I went for this device instead of the competition is that I was "under the impression" that they were about to enable full SSH access to the device! Awesome!
"Why were you under that impression?", I hear the skeptics ask. Well, their spokesperson has stated that they would do so. Via mail, and on reddit, publicly, multiple times. I was still torn, so sent them a DM, asking if this was ineed factual. "Yes", they said, "the next quarterly update will enable SSH access!".
Great!
Well, it's been 5 years. They did not follow through. A couple updates were published, none contained the promised functionality, the spokesperson stopped answering questions about SSH. The last software update I received is from 2.5yrs ago. Mentions of the original Supernote A5 have largely been scrubbed from their website.
Let me be clear, the device still functions perfectly. But it is in danger of becoming e-waste because it is so needlessly complicated to get stuff on the device. I'm currently in need of an ebook reader with (ideally) OPDS capability, and I am pretty confident I'd be able to get something like koreader running on this, or at least just run a script to sync files over SSH. Also, I frankly feel wounded in my pride having a Linux device in my possession which refuses to do my bidding (I'm joking of course, but also I am 100% serious).
Here's all I know:
- plugging it in via USB, the device reads as an MTP device, with access only to the documents/books/... stored on it
- you can place an
update.zipfile (obtained from the SN website) into the root of that MTP directory, and upon reboot, the device will update. To me, this appears to be the most promising route of gaining access. - unfortunately, the zip file is encrypted. The decryption key clearly has to be known to the device, but since I have no access to it,...
I'm a software engineer, but I have zero knowledge of the "dark arts", so to speak. If anyone could help me (or point me into the right direction!), I would really be grateful. I don't want this (generally nice) product to turn into a paperweight instead of a paper replacement :(
Basically, the title. After years of inactivty, I'll be taking music (cello) lessons again, with my teacher of yesteryear, from whom I've moved half a country away.
She has suggested Zoom but is open to alternatives. I don't particularly like Zoom, plus I have a feeling better quality can be had through a custom solution - but I'm at a bit of a loss as to what exactly would be a good fit for this project.
Maybe Jitsi? Does someone here have experience with it and could tell me if it's possible to set something like a "target" audio quality?
For hardware, I basically have two options. Both are already in use, for different things, and have sufficient processing capabilities - albeit no GPU:
- host everything at home. Plus: lowest possible latency from me to the server. Not sure how much that is worth though.
- root server in the Hetzner cloud: much faster network speed. Again though, not sure how beneficial that is, the ultimate bottleneck will always be my upload speed (40Mbit)
OK, I realize that this post is a but of a random assortment of thoughts. I'd be really happy about suggestions and / or hearing about other's experiences with similar use-cases!

Hi,
not sure where else to post this. For a while now, I've unsuccessfully been trying to get WireGuard to work with Crunchyroll.
Setup is as follows:
- dedicated server hosts a wg-quick instance in [neighboring country]
- OPNSense acts as peer on a single IP
- I have a rule for routing the entire traffic of some source device via that IP
This works just fine. Handshake successful, traffic is routed via the server. traceroute shows the server as the hop immediately after my device's local gateway. The connection is stable, and fast.
...except for Crunchyroll. The site / app itself is fine, but I can not, for the life of me, get a video to play. It just keeps loading forever.
I don't think this is an issue with CR recognizing that I'm not where I say I am - looking online, it seems pretty easy to use CR with a VPN. I've also tried from multiple other devices, all with the same symptom.
If anyone has suggestions, I'd love to hear them 😅
EDIT: It was MTU. Had to manually set it to 1500 on both devices.
Nope, still the same issues. I was using the fallback interface there briefly.
EDIT: It WAS MTU related, I had to enable MSS clamping on the OPNSense.
