Hey! Pope down the puns a bit.

My dad uses LibreOffice for years, still call it OpenOffice 😂.

You mean OwnCloud, don’t you?

You don’t need 4 drive for redundancy, 2 is enough. You only need 4 minimum for a raidz2, or raid 10.
My setup uses a pair of SSD in mirror for apps, and a 5 disk raidz2 (4 data disk + a hot spare) as a main data backbone.

On the other hand, algae do not produce shade, not sure if it filters atmospheric pollutants, and trees provide all sort of other services to the local ecosystem.

Maybe this invention can be used on places where trees cannot lives, but I’d still take a city with trees over a city full of green tanks.

I’d prefer MS SQL over Oracle SQL any day. And PG SQL over both of them.

As a fellow TrueNAS user, i’d advice you to wait a little bit, especially if you already have a working deployment.
The action runner isn’t yet available, and there is still some bugs to iron out (wrong password used for the database, you have to manually correct it on first init).

“The secret sauce”

For the battery life problem, try to force the usage of Proton. The native Linux version got a prety nasty power bug going on.

Prescription lenses are available at checkout, yes.

I’d be interested once it is compatible with Linux.

Admins and Mods have means to contact each others. If we have good reasons to block said website it will be blocked.

In 0.19.4, section “Moderation enhancements”

URL Blocking, at last. Now I can block all those AI shit websites on my communities :D

And being able to comment on locked post, what a nice QoL enhancement :D

Depending of the country, could be a billion actually (some countries uses a dot as thousands separators). But I’d call bullshit is that was what OP pretended.

At five years you’re probably going to be disappointed with the battery performance, but how many people are continuing to use a 5-year-old phone?

My brother has a 6+ years old Iphone, my parents both have a 5 years old Samsung Galaxy Phone (S21 and A51). None of them complains.

On top of that, giving the user access to the battery means the phone body can’t be fully sealed against moisture and dust

Do you think computer waterblocks are sealed using glue? They aren’t. Screws and a good old o-ring are all you need to make a repairable AND waterproof phone. But they don’t want a repairable phone, they want you to buy a new one whenever possible.

plus the access panel is a big mechanical weakpoint which means the body will be less rigid than a fully enclosed device and thus more prone to breaking when dropped or sat on.

I dropped my FP5 multiple time. He never broke. My brother IPhone got a shatered back, and he had to replace the screen once for falling from a distance the FP5 just shrug off.

Plus, the addional space required to fit in the replaceable battery casing, the removable access panel and the contact points for the battery means either the whole device will have to be bulkier or the battery will have to be smaller (than it would otherwise be with a permanent internal battery).

True, but ot also don’t have to be the old pogo pin way. Any currently available battery is a removable battery given it is user accessible and isn’t glued to the board.

Today it’s weight and bulk, plus fragility that will probably lead to equivalent or increased e-waste.

I wonder… What would be the biggest e-waste? A dead battery or a dead battery with a whole perfectly functional phone attached to it?

Even with a backup, there are chance they put a “security feature” to prevent downgrade.

Makes sense. But you can offset part of the shipping from the fact that you can easily do the repair yourself.

Another possibility would be the HMD Skyline. Less repairable than Fairphones, but still far easier than most other smartphones. Only 2 years of updates though.

But starting from 2027, a removable battery will be mandatory for all smartphone in the EU, which mean most, if not all smartphone will switch to removable battery. This may also make repair a lot easier.

For being too forward, maybe?

Forward shipping exists.
