I'm looking forward to receive it, my olan is to use it as majn phone!
Got an email, they told me it should arrive later this month, although i think is going to be early october.
Waiting for mine that should arrive by the end of August :)
I can talk about my experience, i tried to port pmos mainline for my galaxy a40 for a while, until the phone died :( it was not easy of course, but ppl on their supoort channels have always been helpful , and tried to help and even if i didn't finished the port because my phone died, i did my luttle contributions to the wiki adding missing infos, improve some of the steps, adding deatils, etc. I think that every little contribution will help them.
Also now there is a started port of a40 if anyone is interested to continue it, and also the code for uniloader to boot (kr if u have a spare a40 to donate :) )
So even if not technical, helps with visibility, donations, documentation upgrade, installation attempts i think will be all welcome.
About the bar level. Big problem is the lack j of standardization of those devices, and all the different and various lock they put around, so for this one I think the main issue is there should be more standardization or more regulations among various devicee producers , like is with pcs (i. e. Bios, uefi) . Where there aren't locked bootloader, or for installing alternatives u need to go through a satanic rite and sacrifice your youngest relative to unlock the bootloader. And tbh i think they are making a big effort in making all the process at least doable. Maybe if they will get enough attention, or a consortium of producers will try to co e with a standard, thjngs could be better
I remember that a person not able to fill a simple form is called a "functional illiterate", so this tool if i understand it correctly is helping people to go in the illiteracy direction faster?
So do you know everyone working on it? To assume noone is capable? Because otherwise this is just offensive. Also the project has been created less than 24 hours ago, so what do u expect already a ton of differences ?
What i meant talking about ownership in my previous comment, was the AI Slop user, that they could feel to have done something, but they actually didn't the AI did it, and they didn't wrote a line of the LLM output. Meaning that he did to himself more harm, thinking of being more productive. He didn't produce anything, let a tool do it, that has been able to arrive at that point by stealing data all over the internet, without paying a penny. And the user didn't gain anything from it, didn´t learn anything, that in the long term is a loss of skills, meaning a loss of value, and being easier to replace, that was what I meant.
And the big corporations will get out without paying much, they pirated content, but they have money. So any fine for them will be just a bunch of pennies. But I think that now they pirated more than piracy at its peak. But this has been considered fair use (Also the destruction of thousand of physical books, to have them digitialized to train the LLMs...)
Also i would add that whatever comes out from AI is their (AI) product not yours. Making the LLM user losing its core abilities by delegating their core activity to the LLM, meaning losing even more value as a worker and becoming even easier to replace (that also is one of the. Main reason of this big LLM hype.).
Looks like that marx "capital" is more actual then ever!
In one word, capitalism?
This should exain why i received 2.mails woth password reset request not initiated by me in the last few days. Luckily I have 2FA!
Well I totally agree with it :) (even if it should be ironic)
Because in my opinion people are used to reddit, and is the biggest one, baiscally everyone else is there, why changing for a platform where you have evem to choose " an what? An instance?"), with a fraction of the users.
I stopped using reddit after the api rules changes, i quit twiitter as sson as that nazi guy bought it.
The main socials I use are mastodon and lemmy.
How many of my friends are on madtodon? 1 or 2, how many of them are active there? 0. And i think my nbers are even higher than wjat i think they should be because most of my friemds works in the IT
People unfortunately just wants everything quickly, without hassle, and are not prone to change.
A question on reddit? Probably you'll get an answer in few hours. On lemmy? You are luckynif you'll get one.
I have a small crafting page, that I'm trying to spread using only mastodon, it's much harder. These are the reasons I think.
And most people don't even care about the content of if their timeline is 85% ads and suggested pages.
They will just scroll. Algorithms are shitty, but who cares. Everyone is there...
