People are different, different people like different things, and they care about different features of a device.

I never had any apple device, but I help a lot other people with iphones and macs, and I have to tell you they are just devices. I'm familiar with their features, but I don't care, this whole thing is only about you. If you want an iphone buy one. If you don't want one, just move on, life is too short for getting mad about unnecessary thing like this.

Mentions of Lemmy communities only work in top toots on Mastodon. Otherwise Mastodon users could spam Lemmy unintentionally very easily. You can also mention only one community in a top toot, so you can't post the same toot to multiple communities.

Afaik Mastodon devs are working on a group implementation, so this will improve in the future.

Because no one should rely on that, they recommend to fully automate renewal with a script or some other programs.

Wouldn't it be better to replace the full rom at this point? You trust other parts but not the dialer?

What I'm trying to say, if you think your built in dialer is a spyware, it's very likely other components of the rom could be spyware as well, and you don't gain too much by replacing only this component.

Wdym spyware? Isn't the stock dialer comes from aosp and it's open source? Or your rom doesn't use that one?

Here is a section of a map from 1823, it shows the buildings built on top of that, note the circular shape:

Map of Old Buda, 1823

Same map browsable here, change the opacity on the top right to see current aerial photo.

According to some legends it was used as a fort in the middle ages, bu afaik no archeological remains support this.

Another map from 1878, with more details, it shows the contours of the buildings:

Arson usually has some human remains, who were inside the houses, but it's not the case here, there are burned bones from earlier and latter cultures, but not from here (if I understand this correctly):

For example early Neolithic houses have more artifacts deposited in them, and it is in these early Neolithic phases that burned human remains are most likely to occur (Chapman 1999). Human remains occur again in the late Eneolithic (Gumelniţa/Karanovo VI). The presence or absence of human remains in the rubble of burned houses is clearly of great significance.

Wikipedia has a very detailed article on them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cucuteni%E2%80%93Trypillia_culture

One of the most notable aspects of this culture was the periodic destruction of settlements, with each single-habitation site having a lifetime of roughly 60 to 80 years. The purpose of burning these settlements is a subject of debate among scholars; some of the settlements were reconstructed several times on top of earlier habitational levels, preserving the shape and the orientation of the older buildings. One location, the Poduri site in Romania, revealed thirteen habitation levels that were constructed on top of each other over many years.

The lyrics:

THE ILIAD (Ancient Greek)
me man aspoudi ge kai akleios apoloimen
mega rhexas ti kai essomenoisi puthesthai
(Let me not then die ingloriously and without a struggle,
but let me first do some great thing)

BEOWULF (Old English)
Ure æghwylc sceal ende
gebidan worolde lifes;
wyrce se þe mote
domes ær deaþe
(Each of us shall endure
this world’s life until the end;
let he who is able
achieve fame before death.)

POPOL VUH (K’iche’)
Nab'e chel iwe,
Nab'e nay puch kixq'ijiloxik
Rumal saqil al,
Saqil k'ajol.
Ta chuxoq.
Mawi chisachik i b'i'.
(You shall be the first to arise,
and you shall be the first to be worshipped
by the sons of the noblemen,
by the civilized vassals.
So it shall be!
Your names shall not be lost.)

RAMAYANA (Sanskrit)
ihaiva nidhanam yamaah
mahaa prasthaanam eva vaa
(Here let us all for death prepare,
Or on the last great journey fare.)

The BMW 3.0 CSL, with which Alexander Calder laid the foundation stone for the Art Car Collection in 1975, was also one of his final works of art before his death. As a sculptor who normally devised his own shapes, Calder managed to free himself from the formal structure of racing cars and, by painting them, aspired to give them his own distinctive mark. As in the case of his sculptures and mobiles, he used intensive colours and gracefully sweeping surfaces which he distributed generously over the wings, bonnet and roof.

Born in Philadelphia in 1898, Alexander Calder started his career as an engineer, only then to follow in his father‟s and grandfather's footsteps as a sculptor. Feeling drawn equally towards art and technology, he developed his own completely unique form of sculpture, his constructions being enormous but nonetheless light and floating in appearance. He became famous for his abstract mobiles which were hailed by critics as the most innovative American sculptures of the 20th century. He died in New York in 1976 at the age of 78.

The BMW 3.0 CSL

  • six-cylinder inline engine
  • 4 valves per cylinder
  • twin overhead camshafts
  • displacement: 3210 cm³
  • power output: 480 bhp
  • top speed: 291 km/h

In 1975 this Art Car designed by Alexander Calder was driven in the 24-hour race at Le Mans by the American Sam Posey as well as Jean Guichet and Hervé Poulain from France. It was the first and last time the car was used in racing. After seven hours the car had to give up due to a defective prop shaft. The car has been on display since then.

Map was made in 1910, and the monarchy collapsed in 1918. At its creation it wasn't a historical map, it was showing the history of a still existing and thriving entity.
