    • The Daylight DC-1 is an e-ink style tablet that'll do 60-120fps

    • Banning kids under 16 from social media is a dumb idea and people smarter than me agree

    @floreani excellent article as usual!

    , I have a Pixel 7a phone with a cracked screen, but the local repairer doesn't fix Pixel devices. Is there someone reliable, quality, and trustworthy I can send it to for repair?

    I could buy the kit from iFixit, but I don't presently have the time (or patience) to do the job (too much farm work, firewood cutting, and house reno work to do).

    Suggestions appreciated.

    @decryption should I put this on the forums?

    I have a shitload more stuff to flog this weekend. Going through the house finding all the tech stuff I have that I don't really use much. Probably $5k worth of gear. I have a filthy shopping habit.

    The first search that failed since bing and DDG went down was “big chungus” I thought IT had gone a bit overboard with the content filtering on my work laptop.

    also eSIMs are a mistake for your primary phone number - making your phone number beholden to an app?? bad idea, good for burner/travel numbers though

    @stevenimpson I think Apple has a way to move them to an Android phone but yeah, it's risky imho, they don't make it flexible
