"Mouse battery low." Hmm, haven't really paid attention to the battery life of the #LogitechMXmaster... maybe 4-6 weeks?
Mastodon has introduced me to a ton of new ideas since I've been on here. So many cool thinkers and artists and great people. I love it.
Warrantless device searches at the border are unconstitutional. The CBP's updated policies don't change that. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/01/new-cbp-border-device-search-policy-still-permits-unconstitutional-searches source: https://twitter.com/eff/status/950500402461491200

New Year's Greetings by #Jolla with an Outlook for 2018
2017 was an important year for expanding #SailfishOS to new markets together with regional licensing partners. In 2018 Jolla expects to see the first Sailfish OS products from China.
#SailfishX for the #XperiaX has been a success and more supported product models and markets will be added during 2018.

My to-do list for 2018:
* Be awesome
* Take no prisoners
* Give zero fucks
* Trust no-one
* Deny everything
they make a law it's a joke.

#Taiwan fines #Apple $666K over #iPhone pricing (old article from 4 years ago)
https://www.cnet.com/news/taiwan-fines-apple-666k-over-iphone-pricing/
Happened across this, kinda amused by the amount of the fine (after currency conversion).. and recalling how my mom scared me few years back when she told me she got an iPhone. Turned out to be some mid-range Samsung (her first touchscreen phone). Followed by "I got an iPad!" referring to her Nexus 7. Power of branding 😅
Our twins are four months old today, and holidays are approaching, and I thought it would be a good idea to give a little something to someone who could use it. This coming Sunday, I'll buy the "Be a Coder" bundle (https://www.humblebundle.com/books/be-a-coder-books) to someone who needs, and wants it.
If you'd like to have it, or know someone who would, and you (or them) can't buy it, contact me. Either via DM, or e-mail at be-a-coder@gergo.csillger.hu.
Boosting this toot for better coverage is most appreciated!
