Is this technology open source?

[–] 3arn0wl 1 points 1 year ago

I wasn't suggesting it! There are other options.

The IPhone 3g turned me from a long-time Apple Fanboy to a Linux enthusiast over a decade ago. With no regrets.

Let's hope to see it everywhere.

The hardware isn't the issue...

The problem comes when Apple decides not to upgrade the OS any more. Then, some time after that, the apps you like to use won't work.

Planned obsolescence : environmentally iniquitous.

This should be how it is throughout the UK, imo.

That's a much better piece. Thank you.

Apologies for the host, and the language. I was just excited by the headline.

I use Tox P2P.

WHERE'S THE FOURTH BRIDGE?

The new iron age brought Forth a conjunction

A shipyard's patois, iron girders wrought.

Two engineers conceived its form and function,

Four thousand briggers its fruition brought.

Three huge red diamonds gleam against the sky*

UNESCO's necklace gracing estuary.

And trains conveying passengers do fly

Across the bridge. Aye, way above the sea.

This first - of three! - made possible a scheme:

The sleeper out of King's Cross they would take,

And o'er the bridge it raced to Aberdeen

In record time, on Scottish shores they wake.

*One cantilever short of poetry

Yet space enough to fit, the irony.
