Sorry, my mirror image got hold of the phone. He’s not real, he doesn’t count.

Also the required diacritics use the number row on Czech keyboards so you need a numpad or type numbers with Shift.

Even after they stopped producing phones, they could have made a killing licensing the patent to phone case manufacturers.

The article is absolute trash for not mentioning this. “Their iconic keyboards…” is the closest it gets to describing them.

Thankfully, there is a link to the patent at the end.

Abstract

A keyboard comprising a plurality of transparent keys. In use, the keyboard is attached to a device such as a mobile device, to overlie a display screen of the device. One or more images displayed on the display screen are made visible to a user through the keys, which may be pressed by a user. User input is determined by identifying a pressed key, and the image or part thereof visible through the key when pressed.

Basically a detachable keyboard of transparent material as a display overlay, providing tactile feedback while the LCD allows for backlit and customizable key labels. I don’t remember seeing a practical implementation of this IRL or in media but I might be too young for that.

Not free as in FOSS because it’s limited to non-commercial projects, but they’re Valve. Devs will probably be able to strike deals if their monetization schemes aren’t exploitative.

CD drives were too big so drives were developed that only took half a CD, which is shaped like a C.

I wouldn’t be in the mood to start raising a child st 84

I thought that the subscription money was what would keep them afloat for longer

You can assign them manually but to this day, they are the last to get used when auto-mounting drives.

Unix rules

How are you expecting to get 10 years of experience for your entry-level job by age 20? You need that to succeed in the job market, and let me guess, you also wasted so much potential by passing up on that opportunity of being born to Linus Torvalds.

Did you set it up? You can totally make a POTS emulator with VoIP, GSM and whatnot with some cheap hardware.

You’re right, systemic theft (corporate and institutional) is way more damaging than petty theft and people don’t talk about it nearly enough. Both occur at different rates in different countries but mostly based on opportunity, not culture.

DuckDuckGo doesn’t track your activity so they only target ads based on your current query and technical details. They determined it would take 30 years to compile Gentoo on your rig so 40+ is a good guess for your age.

Half of Europe: Romanians steal everything!
Otther half of Europe: Czechs steal everything!

Meanwhile…

Still no audio. True Linux experience.

I’m not an expert, how many Raspberry Pi 4s does this translate to?
