@kyle the tor project is apparently working on making their "dormant mode" also work for hidden services, which could significantly improve battery life, so that might be something worth keeping an eye on
@Gina imposter syndrome?
@kyle that sounds like it destroy your batterylife, especially considering you got one with a smaller battery
@matrix I am aware, i just noticed it has been "soon TM" for a while, and was curious. Glad to hear it should be at the end of this month.
@switchingsoftware looking great, keep up to good work!

For real like Bandcamp is exactly the kind of service we *hoped* the internet would give us: โhey, people make things, they set their own price inc. free, we provide the storefront, you buy it and the money goes to the creator, you get it in a DRM-free format and can play it however you want, we just make money to keep going & improving and arenโt a VC-funded nightmare company of rampant reckless growth that will do something nightmarish and implode.โ
We need more media platforms like that.
@kyle activated disk encryption yet? :p
