Make it open source on F-Droid, compatible with the Fediverse, and maybe you’ll even get 500 installs.

Could we have more races like this?

This is basically what an average F2 race is like. (Minus the boring stretch in the middle.) I didn’t even plan to watch F1 anymore, only reconsidered since I expected RB to do badly. But unless RB was actually hit with that new TD, I can probably take a break until the last F2 race.

More than anything I want a hardware keyboard.

No, not Bluetooth, not tacked on, not in a case, not vibrating emulation of buttons, not a half kilo Linux phone for terminal use, just a regular vertical phone with a keypad ffs.

Don’t tell me it’s difficult, when we get a dozen new gaming handhelds a month. They have buttons and Android. Don’t tell me it’s too expensive if Chinese factories can make a phone or handheld under 100€. Don’t tell me there are no suitable displays, when there clearly are displays of all shapes and sizes. Don’t tell me there’s no interest when there are thousands of phone models on the market and everyone is fighting to find any niche to squeeze into. It’s clearly absolutely doable, it’s been done both well and cheap, just the phone vendors are absolutely dense.

Sony, except the battery, but that is coming with new EU regulation.

Actually cheap phones often have more of these things, although it’s getting rarer.

They’re skinnier and shaped in a more compact way. And I think the lower models are still smaller, aren’t they? Even if not exactly the compact/mini models they used to make.

I heard the same, but that doesn’t explain how there’s been phone models with keypads both before and after BB.

Also, I doubt Chinese phone makers give a fuck about patents. There was a cheap qwerty phone with KaiOS sold only in India, and I suspect it wasn’t sold anywhere else exactly to avoid worldwide patent problems. But honestly who cares, just make it and people will import it.

Yea, and Zenfone 10 is the “small” phone, isn’t it? So this is as wide as that, and much skinnier than usual phone sizes. The assignment said “compact”, not “small”.

You can have an IR blaster as an accessory for the headphone jack.

Getting a 404 on that.

Iudesk Photo Editor for Android. Can’t do real time memeing when stuck behind a computer.

Reserve driver only for the race who didn’t even have one practice session isn’t much use, they’d just smash into the wall anyway.

Besides their reserve driver is Drugovich who never raced in Singapore, or they could borrow Mick Sch who crashed there a few times iirc.

Sure, sometimes a comment is the important part, but I have a real beef with this whole screenshot culture.

Obviously technology isn’t helping, with web sites preventing saving of images and no good ways to preserve formatting when pasting information.

And then there’s the whole format issue when a shitty jpg is screenshotted, shared as png, then recompressed, screenshotted again… Ugh

I find 95% of foss software to be better than the commercial alternatives, and I’m not joking. As for bugs, foss devs are usually faster to respond to bug reports and user requests too, unless it’s some mismanaged behemoth like Mozilla.

Thing is, commercial software can use the money for advertising and marketing. Foss, especially of the free to use kind, usually only spread by word of mouth, and even that only within the foss communities at first.

Let’s not get into examples, because I’m sure we can always find examples for every case and it often comes to specific preferences. My general point is, that people who think free has to be crap, and commercial has to be good, are categorically wrong.

It’s in fact backwards: if you do something only for money, you’re incentivized to do the least amount of work either for maximum effectiveness or to give yourself time to do stuff you actually want to do.
