I have it on a studio display.
I don't notice any blurriness or colour inaccuracy next to my 14" Macbook Pro screen.
I do notice way less glare.
It's nice. Not sure it's worth the price increase, but if glare bothers you, it's almost certaintly worth it.
A couple of years now. I messed around with the Secret Menu settings today and I might have solved it; my guess is that there are some "default" ads cached forever on certain settings.
Weird, I've had it disconnected since the factory reset.
Maybe I should connect it, let it load new ads, and then cut it off again?
The ad on the right side of the home screen always shows up for me, even with a pi-hole setup at home. I actually ended up factory resetting my roku tv and disconnected it from the inyernet entirely a couple years back for that exaxt reason. Except roku OS 10+ actually gas built-in ads on the right side that show up even if you're offline.
...so how did you get rid of the ads entirely? Because I'd love to do that myself.
You could potentially match on audio, though -- look for the 15 seconds of podcast audio preceding the ad, and the 15 seconds following it, if folks reported it in a sponsorblock way.
Alternatively, we could build a shazam-style database of 30 second podcast ads, then skip them when they're identified. There isn't much variety out there.
Unfortunately true. Support sites you love through purchases, subscriptions, and donations. Ads are, at best, a vector of mental malware. At worst, a vector of actual malware.
Hopefully the next Fairphone closes that spec gap. I could easily live with 2022 specs for a long time, giving plateauing performance gains, as long as the phone is supported with updates.
Of course, I would also kill for a headphone jack and a 5.4-5.8" iphone mini-sized screen. It's so frustrating that I want to buy a fairphone but the compromises are too much.
What are the chances that an IR LED hat would get you run over by a self-driving vehicle? We already know they don't deal well with anything out of the ordinary, and they routinely slam into trucks and barriers.
Maybe I should start walking at an irregular pace like the Fremen in Dune to throw off gait detection. Since it's probably trained on an average lazy American gait I suspect an intentionally irregular gait would completely fuck the algorithm. Of course, if you're the only one doing it you might wind up even more identifiable. But maybe you could introduce some subtle irregularities that most people wouldn't notice in person but a computer would pick up.
Yeah, roll one out with a 5.8" screen and a headphone jack amd I'll buy it at a premium. I'd shell out even more for a true iPhone mini-sized phone if they make the battery fat enough for decent battery life -- small phones can still be ergonomic and light enough with a little extra chonk.
Giant screen, no headphone jack? No thanks, I might as well buy a $50 android phone at a gas station.
10/10 review of purelymail as a 2 year user.
Cost me $20 so far. Because the service is just a service, not a massive ponzi scheme. We need more devs like the creator!
If Mozilla really starts to go downhill, what are the chances we get a Linux kernel-style community fork that we can rely on instead? Curious why that hasn't happened before -- perhaps because Mozilla has always toed the line of not-quite-awful enough?
I just hope we can keep an alternative browser engine alive. Would be nice if some rich person would just set up a funding model that can pay a few devs to keep it going indefinitely without ads or spyware.
