Same. I would love to jailbreak mine and remove the bloatware and tracking

I was looking for the same thing. Fine! Maybe it’s in the Readme.md. Nothing! Well, ok then

Oh I loved Hypem! I actually visited the website again yesterday and found a cool track within 10s. It’s still alive and kicking. For some reasons, they never accepted my submission to have STN on it. Thanks for being a part of the adventure and I hope you still have those mp3s.

Yes! I don’t know how many mp3s I shared on it but definitely a lot! It was wild to be able to do this with the support of the artists and the labels. I’m glad you still have them (I do too). The blog is still online if you want a trip down memory lane but sadly the download links are not. Thanks for being part of the adventure and sorry for messing up the ID3 tags of each mp3.

Haha le crossover HN improbable ! C’était une fin sans vraiment l’être. Je n’ai jamais vraiment fermé le chapitre. L’intention a toujours été la, plein de fois pour être franc. Encore plus récemment. J’ai envie de faire ça bien donc ça prendra un peu de temps mais l’envie est clairement là :)

Thank you! Small world indeed! I’m glad the blog resonated with people as much as it did. I shared mp3 with friends back then and firmly believed that more people in France and around the world would love the same music as much as we did. Kudos for still posting on yours after all the years. That’s an insane feat! I really wished I kept going but starting my career in Paris in 2014 killed the momentum. I worked on the blog from 6pm to midnight pretty much every day after school and couldn’t do the same once I started working. I’ll bring it back one day! In the meantime, I’ll definitely check ilictronix. Thanks for sharing with the world. Love the MySpace like personal website with flat Eric!

But you’re not getting the same amount of food. Buns are smaller, burgers are way thinner and the quality of the products is not the same.

Everyone on /r/homelab has been talking about it over the last few months. I bought a VPS and later realized a cheap tiny PC would be better for my use case combined with Proxmox. The next step is configuring a few more services and installing Pangolin on the VPS for easy reverse proxy management. I haven’t used it yet but all in all it looks awesome and the reviews I’ve seen are overwhelmingly positive. Thank you for building it!

Reading this on my s8+ that's still working perfectly. The battery doesn't last a full day but is still fine to keep the phone as a daily driver. I don't have Android updates anymore (which I now consider a plus, there's nothing exciting about new Android updates) and the only apps that I would use and can't install are Workday and Slack - not a huge loss. I don't have 5G but 4G+ is fine - on WiFi most of the time. It's really day and night versus my past experience with the Nexus 4/Nexus 6P where almost every day you had to debug something or fight bootloops. I'll probably get the next iPhone in a few weeks but I'm glad I was able to keep this phone for that long. The worst things were Bixby and the curved display. The best thing was definity the camera.

Unrelated to this specific news but I love that in 2024 there's still very niche forums with an 90' look that exists somewhere on the internet. Just passionate people discussing asynchronously without any "social media" shenanigans.

As someone who got laid off a few months ago, that's sucks and good luck!
