Blinx: The time sweeper

Thanks for bringing that up, I played the shit out of Blinx 2 back when and had all but forgotten it.

Incidentally my first thought reading your comment was "Prince of Persia: Sands of Time"

Interesting to see how different that is from Australia. In your example only lane 3 is a passing lane, and "undertaking" isn't a thing, it's completely legal to overtake in any lane.

Now do the crappy mobile games

The removals also follow former Netflix gaming boss Mike Verdu — who just announced that he’s a VP of “GenAI for Games” at Netflix — telling Game File’s Stephen Totilo that the company wasn’t building interactive titles anymore.

Oh. Oh no.

...what?

the size of a tiny granola bit

...what??

There is a workaround for this, which is to use a service like JMP.chat to redirect SMS to XMPP, at which point you only need to ensure internet which is a bit of a lower requirement than specific networks (but of course may still become more limiting over time)

It's too early to be certain, but I've got high hopes for the future of the SHIFT 6mq.

I believe it has mainline linux support, or it is being worked on, which will be important for ongoing OS upgrades. Otherwise they have a similar philosophy to Fairphone with an important difference; SHIFT wants you to be able to upgrade their phones, not just repair them. I don't think this has been realistically tested yet, but the successor SHIFTPHONE 8 is coming out imminently, and I think we should start to see pretty soon if any of the new modules can be installed on the older model.

I've actually got the SHIFTPHONE 8 coming myself, because I got spooked by places turning off 3G already and wanted to "future proof" with 5G, but otherwise would have preferred the 6mq.

The one caveat is that SHIFT is a very small company, which could mean risk for long term support.

I'm not very familiar with consumer co-ops beyond "the thing that keeps popping up when I try to look into worker co-ops". What do you get out of a multi-stakeholder co-op that's better than a pure worker's co-op?

What do the exclamation points mean?

No. "New moon" is just the night side of the moon facing us. A lunar eclipse is when the Earth blocks sunlight from the moon, which can only occur on a full moon approximately every six months.

If I read that right, the normal way. It's not a special lock, just the normal lock screen. The use case seems to be addressing the idea of your phone being snatched while unlocked, and then attempted brute forcing into apps with sensitive data pin/biometric locks

What thing called turtle are you referring to?

You would be giving up some feed-rate control and retraction. Probably not too bad with certain materials and large scale prints, but I'd be surprised if you could do anything moderately precise with this.
