> Given the risks associated with buying online, some customers are resorting to filming the process of unboxing expensive gear in order to create proof in the event that an order has not been correctly fulfilled.

That is exactly what I do for every >300€ purchase I make online. Otherwise, refund without "video evidence" becomes impossible for the majority of platforms.

Most likely, yes.

Thank you for your clarifications. I am still a bit confused by the "need" of having a cryptocurrency built into this tool, especially at such an early stage, and as cryptos are getting more fame of financial speculation and less of actual means of payment.

As an Italian, the Starbucks "espresso" I had in the UK once was by far the worst I ever tried for the price. And yes, I tried lots of espressos abroad, from cheap supermarket ones, to fast food chain ones, to essentially any popular higher end café chain.

Thanks! This is what I needed

Not at all, but it is easy to convert such Kindle to money. I am a hardcore Kobo user myself

Italy has had this for a few years now (people born from 1998 onwards, https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-08-23/italy-s-1...): €500 to be spent on books, music and cultural events, so even looking at the app idea and graphics I would guess this is where it was inspired from.

Overall, I would say it was well-used considering the problem our country has with "free money" initiatives, although I definitely met some people who tried to "cheat the system" to some (smaller) extent, e.g. by using the voucher to get free high-end Kindles in bookstores.

Also, about 40% of purchases (if I recall the stats correctly) were made on Amazon, Spotify or other "big tech" corporations, meaning that while it gave a boost to the smaller economy, local businesses did not get from it as much as one could expect.

To be fair, interest around ISAs has never been so high. Now RISC-V workshops ("build your own core") are kind of everywhere, from Udemy to most universities, some of which are even targeted at teenagers.

The resulting RISC-V cores are mostly emulated, but are expanding knowledge of FPGAs immensely as a side effect.

I am working on GraphBLAS-based implementations right now. While the API itself is great, using it full-time I notice documentation is still quite behind and still not too many features. Also there is almost no community outside academia. Crazy efficient though, and very solid overall

Definitely true. I would rather identify the problem (which is a wild guess) as having very similar burden between larger and smaller industries, meaning no particular protective measures, investments or auxiliary measures (e.g. simplified tax formats - which exist only to a smaller extent) are taken to ensure a newborn company can safely "hatch".

Disclaimer: While Italian, I am no startup/industry owner, so anyone in the field could probably give a more insightful opinion.

Several minor PINE64 products are mostly rebrands with a custom designed, open sourced PCB. See PineTime.

I think it may be legal, since saying it qualifies as a disclaimer. Basically the default is 24m (EU) or 12m (US), but it should be legal to explicitly state another term for warranty.

Some shops have down to 1 week of warranty, some (e.g. wholesale items) may state to accept no returns, etc.

It is sad how I intuitively felt the urge to scroll to see if I could zoom in quicker. I think the Web is getting us too used to quick scrolling and just short glimpses of artworks, places or articles, and unable to stop even for a couple of minutes to try to explore the essence of some art and get absorbed by it.

Apologies for making what may sound like the average "edgy teen" comment, but is exactly what I felt in this case.

Missed this comment, but will surely do! Still quite inexperienced with it, yet this tutorial looked quite well done

Yeah, I'm aware. But zipping everything together in my own Flatpak seems unfair given how much work I owe to ActivityWatch

Creator and developer here. I noticed that the Linux ecosystem currently lacks even simple graphical screen time apps, so I built one based on the cross-platform ActivityWatch tool (https://activitywatch.net).

Some technical details:

- Workflow is written in Python using GTK3. Don't panic about dependencies, it's already on Flathub

- As said above, it is a GUI for ActivityWatch, which does all the "dirty work" of monitoring the user's windows (and their titles) via `aw-watcher-window-*`.

- It has only been tested on Xorg so far due to some known ActivityWatch limitations, yet their team has just released a beta `aw-watcher-window-wayland` which should work on some desktops. GNOME window tracking on Wayland is already theoretically possible via introspection APIs, but I currently don't know if an implementation for ActivityWatch has been made.

- It is currently interfaced with ActivityWatch via its web REST APIs, and currently all parsing of information is done on the app side. This could be done very efficiently using their query API, but documentation for it is still too limited to rely on.

- Workflow is still at a very early stage of development, so it won't do much more than showing how much you used every app each day, and displaying a simple graph showing weekly usage per day. Most bugs have been sorted out for the 0.1.1 release, but the UX is still far from optimal.

- As for any FOSS software, contributions and PRs are extremely welcome. Opening an issue before starting coding, however, might save you a lot of time.

Constructive (or constructively destructive) feedback is appreciated.

The screen is the part to choose wisely if you want good battery life.

You can use the Gapps you mentioned even on Android without logging in I think. At least on older Androids (4.x)

Agreed. The only one is Nokia 8110, which doesn't support WhatsApp and which is actually somewhat overpriced IMO (a Nokia 1 with Android costs less and the "keyboard cover" doesn't make too much sense to me). The new 3310 would have made more sense.

Wow, #1 on home! By the way, do you have any idea if Wiz/JioPhone/... are shipped by any seller to Europe? Would love to hack one of those

This.

By rule SATA in Board-DB means "native SATA" as USB-SATA sucks. Some boards with USB3-SATA are listed with a notice that SATA isn't native, but USB2-SATA is definitely banned from being referred to as "SATA".

Glad you like it! Yeah, I added almost all technical specs myself, which proved to be a quite time consuming... I looked for them on official pages, benchmarks, and product datasheets. There should be affiliate links (if the Skimlink integration works), but in fact most boards aren't on Amazon or "mainstream" sites as they're meant for industrial applications.

What's wrong with the current "price range"?

CS student and owner here. Thanks for adding my project to HN! In fact I noticed this post by investigating on why my server has been continuously going offline in the last hours - apologies for that, it has never had such traffic peaks before and isn't on a high end hosting :(

The site is in a particular phase, as having little time for it anymore I'm (literallyL giving it away to the Linuxgizmos owner to be integrated in a larger site and possibly become more useful. Anyway, feel free to ask me anything here, I'll be glad to answer anything :)

Does what I want, thanks.

I've created something temporary here, feel free to add anything :)

Wasn't aware of this, thanks for reporting! I wonder why they didn't put this in their official 3.30 changelog, it's quite a big change. I seriously doubt this will be exposed through dbus or anyhow customizable, but it's a huge step forward anyway.

That's just an idea for future releases, though it needs a much wider user base to make any sense...

Every modern touchpad supports it AFAIK, not sure about the cheap Chinese ones but I got it working on 6/6 of my tested hardware (a Macbook Pro 2013 (?), an old Macbook 2009 white, my XPS 13 2018, an ASUS with a somewhat bad supported "ELAN" touchpad, a Dell XPS 15 2017 and a Lenovo Thinkpad)
