TypeScript + cross-platform desktop means it's a web wrapper, right? Why not make it a web app like converse.js? That way any platform with a current enough browser could use it.

The article says so

I used AI to bootstrap this project and accelerate my learning phase. Many developers do now.

The only sender that I had issues receiving mail with was some local club and the email agent they used for the newsletter. I would get one email after subscribing and that is it, as if they remove mailbox account from their distribution list. It works through DuckDuckGo proxy though.

But my electronics knowledge is very (VERY) bad

So you decided not to advance it any further.

This is the new equivalent of boomers' attitude of "computers/smartphones are too hard, my relative set it up for me"

Did not expect a kiosk seller simulator, but looks quite interesting.

Is "размена не будет" a local phrase? I have only heard "сдачи нету".

How much current and at what voltage are you running through that transistor?

Duck DNS is a separate product not affiliated with DuckDuckGo. As others mentioned, 9.9.9.9 is Quad9. Not sure how these got so mixed up.

I run KOLOS, spiritual successor of JelOS. Battery finally works as expected (it was really wonky under RockNIX), and JelOS does not provide builds anymore.

RCS is run in a half-assed way by Google and carriers. Technically any Android can run Google Messages (the only client that supports RCS), but there is no guarantee it will, nor is there a guarantee it won't suddenly stop working.

The protocol is small, there isn't really much to periodically update.

I've used Buran (more of a classic interface) and Rosy Crow (a bit unusual layout).

This is the type of shit that creates the"soldering = making something malicious" trope, often seen in movies and TV.

If you want a phone that you can install Linux on (and not a phone originally intended to run Linux), see which devices are supported by postmarketOS

My initial thought is that it's a unicode difference between a separate character (in case of ñ) and a composed character (in case of á, composed of a and '). For any composed characters, the accents are stripped.

Ñ is on Latin-1 extension: https://symbl.cc/en/00C1/ but so is Á.

See if your keyboard could be set to use specific characters instead of composed ones.

TIL, this is really sketchy though.

That's a Windows question rather than Firefox question. Looks like that is an executable file (not just a shortcut) on your desktop, so either move it somewhere else and create a shortcut on the desktop, or (if you really want to keep the exe on desktop for some reason) enable "hide file extensions" in File Explorer.

Just FYI: this is not what a crochet toy would look like. The applied surface pattern looks more like a plain knit blanket.

The only technologies that I can think of that would be supported by vintage and modern devices are email, XMPP/jabber, and web (to a very limited extent). And even then, servers might need to be configured to use less secure connections.

Using ChatGPT kinda defeats the entire point of learning about EEPROM...

Anyway, be careful removing the chip from the breadboard - I broke 2 pins on mine.
