“inevitable”? hardly. how many first-year Leafs are out there on the original battery? a lot, i’d reckon most. how many dead Leafs are out there which were totalled because of needing a new battery? certainly less than those which were totalled due to rust, collision, etc., ie the things that kill gas cars too.

This has been possible for years. I actually got in the habit of porting my qt projects to the web target because they ran better than native compiled on some of my older machines.

Thunderbird 115 3 years ago

I'm guessing this is not an Electron app. If I am right, that alone deserves praise.

Thunderbird is, and has always been, essentially a Firefox distribution which implements an MUA instead of a web browser.

shutting down means you cannot receive phone calls.

This is actually one of the major problems linux phone operating system hackers have been trying to solve — idle power consumption is really really important for a cell phone, but most hardware open enough to run custom operating systems on don’t have easy ways to suspend to a reliable low-power state.

Free as in free speech, not as in free beer. This has been a slogan of free software for decades. Charging money for your software is not in any way incompatible with open source.

Even with the full federal tax credit this is still 50% more expensive than a Corolla or Impreza. (Civics are hard to find at MSRP still.)

The Bolt would be a much, much better Corolla-killer if they weren’t discontinuing it soon in favor of $100,000 land yachts.

I use emacs 29 beta right now and that is just not how it works. For example for elixir you just install elixir-ts-mode like any other package, answer yes to the prompt to install the elixir ts library, and you’re done.

Even that setup step will be unnecessary in emacs 30, when all this stuff will be shipped by default.
