Nice to see a new flagship with a MicroSD slot and a headphone jack. Also, Sony have a good track record with opening up their Android phones.

But yeah, shame about the price.

If the Go ever received a SUPERHOT VR or another killer app, I think it could have done pretty okay. In essence, it was the Samsung Gear VR adaptor if they made a whole standalone device out of it.

I still flick it on every 6 months or so for a go at Quake GVR. For a 3DOF headset with one controller, it works pretty damn well. Full movement and everything.

Sunk cost fallacy situation. They helped bring Israel up and have made god knows how much supplying them with weapons and setting up the iron dome.

AM radio law opposed by tech and auto industries is close to passing | Ars Technica ( arstechnica.com )

A controversial bill that would require all new cars to be fitted with AM radios looks set to become a law in the near future. Yesterday, Senator Edward Markey (D-Mass) revealed that the "AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act" now has the support of 60 US Senators, as well as 246 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives, making its...

A lot of EV auto makers have been arguing that the frequencies that some of the electrics in the cars run at interfere with AM radio reception.

Not sure if that's a legitimate argument or they just don't want to pay for extra shielding to block out the noise.

    Embracer has really been a mess. Buying everyone up in the hopes the Saudis were definitely going to be on board with funding them probably didn't help.

    Just chucking everyone in a "Thing and friends" team probably isn't helping matters either. Surely someone from the many dozens of development teams they have could have thought of better names.

    The Saturn was bleeding them dry outside of Japan. They would have either died supporting the Saturn or trying to keep the Dreamcast relevant during the run of the PS2.

    Sony was a force to be reckoned with and Sega just didn't have the funds nor the presence to compete with them.

    What's your use case? Likeminded techie friends? Family members?

    Signal works well as an alternative to the likes of Telegram and WhatsApp, even if it still requires a phone number and is centralised. Far easier to explain to the family instead of "oh well you can sign up on this website or this website or that website".

    Granted, if you want to host a small Matrix server just for the family, then go for it.

    I used a Hisense A5 Pro CC phone for a few months as my daily driver. For books, colour eink is okay at best but yeah, contrast sucks. It pretty much always will with the extra layers of filtering needed for each colour.

    Outside of static pages of text and images, you pretty much need to drop colour depth to pretty garish levels for a decently responsive user experience. It's a nice idea but really isn't very good in practice.

    I have a Milk-V Mars but it really isn't performant enough for any task I have for an SBC. Distro support seems to be a pain too, as the provided Debian image isn't meant to run on repos aside from a Debian snapshot from 2022.

    I really do hope things improve. I'm planning on moving over to an RK3588 ARM board for desktop daily drivering but one day I'm hoping a decently affordable RISC V alternative will turn up.

    Do you run anything on a RISC-V processor?

    Lately I've been really liking the idea of having something hosted on a RISC-V machine. RISC-V is a non-proprietary instruction set that is a competitor to ARM. The idea of having a something running on an open source operating system, running on an open standard CPU, served from my house, gives me a warm fuzzy feeling....
