FAAAAACK

IT’S PIKACHU!!!

Oh, my partners, their partners, and the offspring thereof come to mind.

What can I say? Grew up with a close extended family that was familiar with adoption (both formal and otherwise). Couldn’t kick the habit when I moved out.

This was also said in a context that included a military draft

Understandable, which is why I’m choosing to not preorder. However, they also have a full refund policy that’s good until your unit is being prepared to ship, and several notifications leading up to that point. One of the best ways to handle preorders I’ve encountered.

The hand-wavy answer is: go check the code and find out, however that’s not accessible to everyone.

The helpful answer is: The code is out there, and the launch date is far enough away that those who do understand it enough to make that distinction should have the time to do so before it ships, so time will tell.

The Rebble folks probably are the closest to knowing, given they’ve been hacking on the current app for the past several years.

My guess is probably not. The target audience probably wouldn’t be cool with it.

Also, there are 3rd party watchfaces and apps that will be available, so that code will need to be evaluated too. So, it’s more complicated than a single yes or no.

Yes, I’m on staff with Arch. I’m very aware of all of these. That’s like, one of my favorite pages to link to. The fact that I’m aware of these is the whole point of my comment.

I said:

To which Manjaro fuckup are they referring?

Sooo… The author mentions that Manjaro fucked up, but I’m not sure what they’re referring to…?

I mean, like… To which Manjaro fuckup are they referring?

If it ships, Arch will have it immediately.

Providing something that is broken is very different from not providing it at all.

Exaaaactly this. If you can’t laugh at yourself and me while we’re naked doing fun things, idk how much fun you’re having, really.

Spworm.

This was the shit back in its hey day. It was a niche time where we could use it to punch through the school’s web filters that weren’t prepared for BYOD, because IT wasn’t prepared for little shits like me who could figure out a way onto their hidden network :D

For real, I can’t express how effective a well-placed "May I kiss you?” can be. For both parties.

Yup, but there’s only so much bandwidth you can push at that frequency, so simple text messages are fine, but get any more complicated, and you’ll need more bandwidth.

Also it’s not encrypted in the slightest bit. Nor is it unknown. Nor is it difficult to detect and decode it with widely-available equipment. I could listen to my local hospital’s pager tower with a $35 dongle from several miles away.

Yes, actually. Probably still using POCSAG, too. Many large hospitals and emergency response departments still use pagers for this kind of stuff.

Finally time to update manjarno.snorlax.sh again -_-

Oh my god, thank you so much for this. I have always had the hardest time finding these exact same requirements, and this is perfect. All metal construction and coexisting with keys has always been a priority for me, but it seems like everyone is inexplicably fine with copping out by just dangling their data on this flimsy little string tied to a brittle plastic case and I cannot understand it.

I’m not currently looking for one at this exact moment, but I will be returning here when I am. You’re doing the lord’s work out here!
