The Spacebar has a built-in fingerprint sensor, which could be handy for unlocking the phone quickly. The keypad is touch-sensitive, which means that you can slide your fingers over it to scroll through messages. And before you ask, yes, it also has a 4.03-inch OLED touchscreen display for those of us who like scrolling on a smoother surface.

Some of you may also be pleased to know that the Clicks Communicator has a 3.5mm headphone jack and that it supports microSD cards for storage expansion. It ships with 256GB storage and you can add a microSD card with up to 2TB of capacity.

The device runs Android 16, supports Qi2 wireless charging, has a USB-C port, and has a 50-MP rear camera with optical image stabilization, alongside a 24-MP front camera. It’s powered by a 4nm MediaTek chip that has 5G support. It’s a dual-SIM phone with one physical SIM slot and an eSIM

It also has NFC for mobile payment support. I’m not seeing many compromises here except perhaps the camera and processor. I’m gonna use this as my next phone.

The Clicks marketing team has been marketing this as a “second device”. I think that’s a miss-step. Very few people want to have two phones. They exist, but it seems like this device should be a completely capable phone on it’s own. It’ll be a niche device either way but I think the “people who want a small phone with physical buttons” niche is larger than the “people who want two phones of of which is small with physical buttons” crowd. And it causes confusion. Some people saw the announcement and didn’t realize it’s a full fledged independent phone…

About to? Looks mid-rail

Wait this isn’t AI slop

This is great actually

Firstly you most likely just cannot. Device support is very narrow.

But I have a phone I got secondhand just to play with it. I want to love it, but it feels dated. The gestures make using a lot of stuff hard. But the biggest thing is that in my country I can’t even make calls due to no VoLTE support. Kinda kills even using it daily even as an experiment.

I did submit a pull request to add Colemak keyboard layout support to the keyboard though, which was accepted. So technically I’m a contributor :)

That’s the age of the thread, the OP was posted 5 days ago. It doesn’t mean reddit didn’t give Google a picture that was posted later in the thread when Google went looking for the photo. It seems to be a weekly thread (which would be pinned) so it seems likely that people would continue commenting days after its posting.

Someone posts a weekly mega thread that stays up a week, with comments made throughout the week. -> Someone posts this photo after the ICE fucks murder the guy they disarmed in said mega thread -> You ask Google to look for the photo online -> It shows you the mega thread posted 5 days ago, because it now contains the image

Not that I don’t think ICE isn’t that incompetent and willing to lie. But I’d need to see a link to the actual photo on reddit as proof that it’s older.

Apparently that is showing up on the reddit thread because someone posted it there after these events. Unless you can link the specific picture on reddit that is older.

But in any case the video shows ICE agents disarmed the man (by taking the weapon from his waistband) before murdering him, so we do know that they have the gun.

I don’t use Windows and would like to also say AI slop was completely unnecessary here. (and everywhere else)

Take a burner and live stream. Do not keep any sensitive info or log into anything other than the live streaming platform.

If you have your personal phone on you TURN IT OFF when law enforcement is nearby. The most secure state for your phone is before you unlock it after it boots up. The first unlock decrypts it and makes it much more vulnerable.

bonjour!

I have done this lmao

Management doesn’t work Saturday. College football on the TV in the office and burgers for all.

Really had to clean the desk tho

Huh?

I suppose you’re talking about .ml but that’s only 1 of 4.

Uh, out of the top 10 instances by monthly active users (https://fedidb.com/servers) it looks like 5 federate with them and 5 don’t.

Edit: I was mistaken, it was 4 do and 6 don’t. But still, clearly not universal and tons of people are able to coexist just fine with them.

Clearly it’s polarizing. Clearly anyone spinning up a new instance certainly would know what site of that fence they fall on.

I think the biggest thing is just including one of the oldest and most active instances in there. Hexbear (or Lemmygrad) is not everyone’s cup of tea but a default block, or even to lump them in with an instance like the one you mentioned is kinda crazy. Some of the other bigger instances out there federate with one or both just fine.

That’s terrible and immediately makes me question the trustworthiness and motivations of a dev team that decides to block instances by default.

I’m not saying they’re not trustworthy but that just feels icky.

If you’ve gotten to the point of something as advanced as spinning up your own instance of a federated software you probably know who you want to federate with.

It would not crash an instance. What are you talking about…

Ah, someone who wasn’t around for the reddit exodus to Lemmy.

Lemmy is established, having existed very long before. But also they work together. So unless you have some major issue there’s no real reason to up and switch.

Having two softwares actually contributes to the decentralizing of the fediverse IMO, as long as we don’t devolve into tribalism and attacks between the two that deter new users…

Opera before they moved to Chromium was cool

Ive got a Bravia. They’re good like upper midrange TVs, like the top end before you really start spending crazy cash

RAM is expensive, bulk storage like hard drives haven’t gone up as much. Yet.
