web sites are not actually inside their devices

Proceeds to:

• install Termux onto Android phone
• mirror simple websites with wget
• serve them with NGINX
• install kiwix-serve and serve the entire English wikipedia
• install Navidrome music server
• set up port forwarding or use cloudflared (or just stay on LAN)

Under proot I was also able to run Jellyfin server, and someone else also did Nextcloud and at some point a public BBS.

But oh well, soon Google will block unauthorized apps because I probably just purchased a license to use the phone, as opposed to actually buying the device.

As for why, it’s just a battery-powered computer, so why not. And by the way, Navidrome in Termux is probably as easy as it gets anywhere, since it’s in the repo. No docker or installing a .deb, just apt install navidrome.

the internet is broken

Well, true. IPv4 exhaustion yet not enough IPv6 support
de-peering

If this dispute escalates further and a complete de-peering happens in that case both networks will end up having a blackhole. Customers sitting on either side (and their single-homed downstreams) will not have any routes to each other.

BGP hijacking

On April 8th, 2010 China Telecom hijacked 15% of the Internet traffic for 18 minutes, experts speculate it was a large-scale experiment for controlling the traffic flows. The incident also affected US government (‘‘.gov’’) and military (‘‘.mil’’) websites.

Unfortunately, this is rather dependent on manufacturer (or rather how much they can fuck up).
Android 14, but without exFAT support.
I tried multiple, exFAT, ext4, f2fs, NTFS, nothing else works.

I’ve got Ulefone Armor 24. It can take a 1TB Micro SD, but only FAT32. Why a Linux-based OS can only do FAT32, despite supporting other FSs on internal storage goes beyond me.

By the way, there’s now a Wikipedia 2025 snapshot.
I am currently trying to fit that on my phone somehow. I wish I could just omit the index database at the end that can’t be split it seems. I have to keep it, but when it’s split up, it doesn’t work anyway (search is broken that way) (https://github.com/openzim/zim-tools/issues/295).
My phone can only do FAT32 for SD cards…

For 2024 Wikipedia, that seems to be around 18GiB of wasted space.

Probably, yeah.
It’s how I found internship a year ago. It was really just vague “something related to computers”, so I ended up in a small PC repair and sale shop. I just asked the owner, and that was that. Although, since that was for free…

On the other hand, the large company where someone else went in the past… they just told me “write an email to this person”.

But also, that was kinda rare. He usually wasn’t there, especially soon before I left, as he apparently ended up receiving some threats and a few mad people showed up after he helped organize some protests.

There’s parents who don’t care about which games their kids play.
There’s parents who only allow games appropriate for children, perhaps like Sims.

Then there’s kids who play GTA like driving simulator.
And then there’s this one kid.

Some road crossings are bad, and some roads are wide. And you may have to wait to cross to an island, then wait there to go further.

And you could have more of these.

OP posting about this online means she ought to cut it off with him, she’s better than him.

Why? It’s just usual micro blogging. There’s no critique, just a mention of what happened, perhaps just to share something funny. You just write things you found worthy of mentioning, post them, and see if anyone else finds it interesting.

after they repeat the question you already have an answer ready to go

Or I already forgotten instead.

God damn.

Also, technically the green circle ellipse is mostly the 2nd half.
Nevermind, “above pic”.

Google is about to start requiring ID verification from developers to allow installation of their apps. “Unverified” apks will be blocked without GUI bypass.

Check “Google app developer verification”, I don’t have an article ready and my time is up.

I am sure you can rewrite it in some way.

“Software and services proxying traffic destined to public internet through another countries or states”, perhaps.

But from the lack of brain matter I’ve seen so far they’ll either:
a) Require blocking of ports 1194 and 51820
b) Manage to make routing illegal

Meanwhile: “Ooo! More data!”

Somehow I understood the “death date” very differently. Fitting image I found to explain it:

For some reason this very specific image doesn’t work on catbox.moe: https://files.catbox.moe/l4a3i8.png

No, I am too lazy

Hey, I just found it taped to a door.

You better see the last row on one of Tatra Banka’s ATMs (fixed after I reported the bug):
