Re:LG strongly denies TV spying claims on Sunday September 13, 2026 @07:33AM (#49682815)
Well, this problem was solved for years ago : only use TV as a dumb screen, never ever connect it to Internet. Solved. Only use smart devices for content that you "trust" (if that's even possible in 2026 for any of them ...).
Re:Bring Back the SE on Wednesday September 11, 2019 @04:11AM (#20937659)
That's it, I just replaced my old iphone 6 for a refurbished SE. It's a shame, really. I don't mind paying the iphone 11 pro max price for something that hold in my hand, but apparently the market disagree.
Exact same thing for me ! I uninstalled both twitter and facebook app when I realized they were faking notifications for me to open their apps, since I guess they need that for their DAU bs. Since then, I check twitter once a week in a browser mode, and facebook once a day with the firefox container.
Thanks, very interesting!
In my mind, it was something like that :

Flexible batteries you can embad in a tissue wristband for example. But I don't know if it's possible to do so.

Thanks for the link I will check it out asap.

Yes, like a fitness tracker but with tissue. I don't even know if it's possible to combine lithium batteries and tissues :/
I guess I got a lot to learn before answering the requirements question :/ Thanks for the link !
Will check this out! Thanks for the link
Thanks for the feedback. My product will be even simplier, in that I don't need sensors, but it has to programmable somehow
I did not think about that :( That's sound advice!
Sure! I want to build a wristband that need a flexible rechargeable power source and to be programmed by bluetooth
Thank you, will explore that asap :)
That's actually a very good idea! There some fablabs in my local area, I will dig this way, thanks
Thanks for the resources, I didn't event know there was open source wearables! Will check asap
Thanks, will check this out asap!
Thanks for that, will sure get in touch once I figured out first steps to advance on this project!
Well, I will start by googling every single term you used that I don't know yet : edp, rockpro64, etc ... :)
Bookmarked! Will explore this asap :) Thanks
I've searched numerous times, but could not find anyone doing the thing I want to build. That's why I'm playing with the idea of doing it myself
Thanks for the link, I didn't know adafruit :) Will explore it asap
Well, I'll try to keep up with my software career and explore the hardware side as a toy project for now :)
That's what I see as the simple first step, indeed :) Thanks for the input
Thanks, I'll check on this guy and his project
Thanks for your reply, very insightful. I will try to wrap my head around the first steps (like prototyping, and trying to find the right components), and see where it goes from there.
