Meanwhile Google is going to block apps sideloading in Sep 2026, including F-Droid installed.

Same. I guess the effect is weaker on the phone screen where an image is already downsized.

Permalinks to generated content would make it even more viral. I don't want to post to LI/X, just share to friends without copy-pasting.

Or it will have some new TPM/SecureBoot guard rails to not let minors install unapproved systems. Think of children again ;)

If your phone supports being USB host you can try USB splitter dongle and attach external SSD drive to it.

Also if your phone has SD card slot you can try "industrial" SD cards. They are small in capacity but ideal for write load.

Does that license protect anything legally? This is written by AI under some initial guidance. Prompts may be protected but the output of unlicensed knowledge model corpus?

WiFi is fine for notification although Bluetooth would be enough to not get forgotten cloths stuck there for days.

But why it calls home and why we have to create accounts to just get a notification.

Because let's admit it, later it was a taste of one guy who got another "chance" or the company got a "chance" to be lead by him. Now as he is gone the company still carries that taste legacy with better or worse results.

As decades-exp SWE I love using Claude Design for any kind of app and web development, because it gives much faster visual feedback loop than changing views within deep framework stack. It much easier to "tell" coding agent what I need instead of writing wall of prose to define visual stuff.

I reminds me old WYSIWYG and unlike Figma it has full HTML/CSS capabilities available.

How I work with it:

- I ask agent to extract part of app into Design, let it even use playwright-cli to get full rendering of the particular view.

- perform design session in Design.

- once design system is perfected I go down to Claude Code dungeons, do /design-sync.

- perform on the stack implementation session.

Actually you don't need Claude Design UI for any of that too. Just ask any coding agent to prepare local mock HTMLs and iterate over them.

I noticed the more I do nothing (and think nothing) the more my tinnitus lessens. I think mine has something to do with permanent neck muscle tension, the result of everyday rush and stress.

And knowledge from these books can be "imprinted" into a model to be used by much more people or even survive this planet once sent into space in a probe.

EU CRA may change the landscape of embedded consumer devices. Rust memory safety may benefit here.

It will be like DeCSS. Now imagine models (links) in QR code spread around, or steganographied in BluRay MKVs. So much creative disobedience.

No, CRA doesn't cover SaaS services or open-source software, unless it is part of product (e.g. router). So it wouldn't apply here.
