I haven't done it myself, but I've seen videos - you'll need to de-solder the existing port (or whatever is left of it) and solder on a new one.

I miss Google Now... just swipe, and all the relevant information is there. No need to prompt it, no need to wait for a response, and no audio noise to get the information I need.

It was perfect for my needs.

Hyperion is the first book in a 4-book series: Hyperion, The Fall of Hyperion, Endymion, The Rise of Endymion.

If I recall correctly, the first two were supposed to be one book, but were split to two because the publisher wanted more money or something to that effect. So finishing the first book leaves you effectively hanging with a lot of unresolved threads.

By itself, Hyperion seems like a collection of loosely related stories in the same universe. But the rest of the books in the series answer a lot (if not all, read it a long time ago) of the question and threads in the first book.

I can't go into much detail without [mildly] spoiling the series, so I'll just say this: the story is told by different speakers, but it all ties in pretty well.

One minor flaw in their reasoning: Johny Srouji is Arab (but evidently passes as white).

You use a keyboard and a peinter? weak! I throw magnets over the memory chips and use a multi-meter. /l334

A Nokia 3100 ... it was the first phone I bought, and I kept it through college and beyond.

The thing was a beast :-)

128x128 pixel screen, with 12-bit RGB. No WiFi, no Bluetooth. Had some web access with WAP (no not that! "Wireless Access Protocol"). It did have a camera module though /rofl

And best of all, the battery lasted a week!

Personally, I still prefer Android Auto (i.e. phone projected onto car screen) to Android Automotive (Android built into the car infotainment system). My phone gets way more updates than my car, and it's cheaper to buy a new phone once it stops getting updates.

I have the same sentiment towards smart TVs vs plain old "dumb" TVs + a streamer.

I've already heard conspiracy theories about "the US government shutting down the internet" because someone misinterpreted this test.

FSM help us 🤦‍♂️

because sometimes you need to investiagte an issue that happens only on the production machines, and you can't/shouldn't setup debugging on those.
