i don't have any stake in this, i'm a fucking xfce user lmao, but man "hyprland" is not a very great name since it immediately makes me think it's a crypto bullshit project..

almost sounds like god doesn't want us doing machine learning

it's unclear what the shared secret is.

it's actually just literally any string you want, but they should tell you that fact in the same paragraph as when it's relevant..

funnily there's an.. ansible i think? project that makes selfhosting synapse easy as fuck, you basically just go "ansible deploy synapse" or whatever the syntax is and it does almost everything for you.

the documentation is just missing clearly stating that fact, though from what i recall i think that might be said in the config file?

Important to note how the design of the hardware is important in enabling this, if you don't have replaceable parts then the entire thing dies when one component does.

It's really the one major complaint i have about my pixel 3, the lack of an SD card slot immediately puts a bit of a lifespan on the entire device.

perhaps we should start building things with long term support in mind, and not just churn out the cheapest shit we can manage.

Like just look at modern laptops, most of them are absolute dogshit in terms of repairability and then you have the framework which you can straight up buy as a kit to assemble yourself.
Making things easy to maintain is clearly doable, not even that hard.

it's not that wild of a concept, it's basically just an extension of how copyright and patents expire. You should have to prove that your IP is actually in use for it to remain valid, otherwise you forfeit it. Honestly moreso to prevent patent/copyright trolling than for right to repair reasons.
