Or a CLI with clap.

Curious what you are talking about. Multi-threaded sharing of memory for example is also easy with rust, it just doesn’t let you wrote and read at the same time, and so on.

Yeah. Once you get used to the (verbose, but by no means unergonomic!) syntax, you’ll probably never be happy with another language again. Job-wise, I am currently mostly using Go, and while also a nice language, I miss the confidence and security I took for granted with rust.

Not to mention just how goddamn expressive rust can be. Let bindings like if ok/err, else return? Assign from a match on Some(Ok(x))? Filter, map, and friends on any iterator? Oh my GOD the error handling with the question mark iterator? 100% confidence that if it compiles, no error, possible null value, or case is unhandled.

And all this WHILE giving you the amazing security benefits!

Ah, damn, caught me proselytizing again.

• if your skill is so great that you would never cause the kinds of bugs the rust compiler is designed to prevent, then it will never keep you from compiling, and therefore your complaint is unnecessary and you can happily use rust
• if you do encounter these error messages, then you are apparently not skilled enough to not use rust, and should use rust

In summary: use rust.

Nice, that’s great to hear!

Viel Spaß! War im Mai 3 Wochen dort, absolut begeistert, jetzt wird fleißig Japanisch gelernt 😄

Ah, too bad! But thanks, that’s good to know.

Not gonna lie, I’m a tiny bit jealous of you 😄 It’s gotten to a point where having to use Android is a constant, low-intensity source of stress just because of how closed and privacy-unfriendly it has become.

Thanks, that is a very kind offer!

The secific app is xdrip+. But it’s probably not possible to test it out, because starting/working is not the issue, the issue is making sure that it has a 100%% stable background connection with my blood glucose sensor, recovers from failures, restarts in the background on closure,… Eventually, I’ll get my hands on a linux handheld and try for myself :)

That being said - how’s your experience with Sailfish been so far?

Ah, true. I honestly think we need to get to a point where smartphones intended for use with linux are profitable / widespread.

But that’s a catch 22 with UX and HW both being required for companies to invest in the other.

Again for Germany, it’s handled by a single provider, and they absolutely do utilize CoCo tech. (Source: I work at one of the involved companies, sorry, not going to be more specific)

In the case of Germany: confidential computing tech ensures all data is encrypted in storage and in memory, shielded even against data center employees / hosting providers. I imagine that’s become the standard for most countries.

IDK man. AfD are the ones raging against “political correctness” here. Dude decided to not be politically correct and label the Nazis Nazis.

Make sure you choose a proper open source one, else the app might collect data as well…

They don’t let you anymore, do they? There was a whole controversy about the Zenfone 12

Just waiting for the pain to be enough to switch to Linux on a phone.

Main drawbacks right now:

• I have one health-related (open source) app that I NEED to work flawlessly
• Navigating the various UIs seems incredibly awkward and inconsistent

When we need to know each others location, we share it via element / matrix. Our own server, so no third party.

Happens maybe four times a year.

(Also, do you just always have location services enabled?? IMO it’s a battery drain, I pretty much only enable it for this and while I need to navigate)

Fair. Though also, english isn’t my first language.

It might, very very slightly go down. But the way you have to think about a media is this:

Put all 342 million Americans in a single line, sorted by net worth from west to east in increasing order. Find the person standing in the middle, i.e. person 171 million. That’s the median net worth.

Now remove the top 10 richest people, i.e. behead the snake politely ask the 10 people standing easternmost to leave the line. Now to find the new median, go back to the original median person and move five to the left. That’s the new median.

Most likely, you’d have a negligible amount of change. Maybe a couple of bucks.

ALso note that for this it does not matter just HOW rich the richest persons are.

192k

Median, not medium

Ah, nice. In that case just beware to move /var/lib/private/conduwuit to /var/lib/private/continuwuity, not /var/lib/conduwuit to its counterpart
