Because Mastodon proved to be too hard for them to figure out. They couldn't work out which instance to use. Then they couldn't work out who to follow. Some people need to be spoon fed.

Maybe he didn't have the money to launch a suit.

Perhaps I'm too tired to understand your meaning here (it's late), but blockchain isn't crypto currency. It's a distributed ledger, and was around long before crypto. It's not completely immutable either as the hard fork of Ethereum proved.

Blockchain could be used to record energy transactions, but the question is why would you want to? What benefit does it add?

Btw homeowners in parts of Australia are already receiving credits for the excess solar power they generate. There's no need to manufacture a new system to enable that functionality.

Once again, I'm tired. Perhaps I've misunderstood your reasoning.

I don't know. I think the way he's alienating people, sooner or later he's going to annoy the wrong person and end up finding himself falling out a window.

Just a thought. An observation, not a prediction or a threat.

Yes, there's a decent (albeit bare bones) Android client. The web interface is about to have a major update, but at the moment is pants.

I'm bridging my main Mastodon account with bluesky, but I'm fully expecting this service to disappear soon enough. I remember when Twitter, Facebook, and a bunch of other sites allowed crossposting until someone realised they were driving traffic away from their own site and shut it down. I think it was Facebook. I can't remember. Same is likely to happen here, or they'll charge an exorbitant fee for API access like Reddit. For now though, it kinda works.

A15 + 5g both have a headphone jack and can be unlocked apparently. Probably the A25 versions too.

Singapore has apartments above some of the MRT stations, which also usually have a mall attached. Presuming the noise dampening was sufficient, I'd move into one of those in a heartbeat. It'd make shopping and dining out much easier.

And how many are current? Apart from the pixels, there's nothing available where I live unless you buy second-hand (which has issues of its own).

Apart from the pixels, which current range of phones is supported?

That's great if you have one of the handful of phones supported, but for the rest of us, not so much.
