In the FAQs they suggest they don’t know battery life yet because it’s not finished - but indicate “several days” in standby

An ODM is a type of company - although it’s very possible they paid the same ODM to make the phones, since they likely have the tooling ready to go.

Yes they are but they don’t make their phones anymore, they use ODMs in China and the article says the battery was made in the Philippines.

ODM is a type of company (Original Design Manufacturer) rather than a specific company. I do wonder who actually made it, but it’s likely a company no one’s ever heard of.

I live fairly close to the distillery - it’s a fun trip, even if you don’t drink. Like most gins they just use grain alcohol so all the flavour comes from the choice of botanicals and they seemed to care about the quality.

I prefer Hendricks myself but Bombay do a lot of very good special editions.

It has .ia in the file name because it was processed with the Internet Archive’s MP4 tool which optimises the file for streaming by moving some content in the file around. Very common for Internet Archive files and nothing to do with AI.

I agree this seems wrong. Could be referring to the historical bases like Pepperrell, Argentia, Goose Bay etc. but they were closed by the 1960s. NORAD bases do have US personnel on them, so do some Navy bases but by that count it would be far more than 3.

That award was rescinded and given to Roy Dotrice for A Game of Thrones (2004) where he voiced 224 characters. I believe Jim Dale did hold the record before that though with 134 voices for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

I saw the original post and have set up a donation through liberapay. If we don’t want to be the product then we need to pay for the product!

I’ve been considering donating for a while (I already donate to my instance) so I’ve set that up now. ~$5 a month isn’t much but I hope it a few more people it too it will start to add up.

Toasted but I do deviate from many here by preferring butter (French, salted) with jam (French, often strawberry). Much as the British crumpet is the best bread product, I will bow to the supremacy of French accoutrements.

 

People in the Thai city of Samut Prakan are scratching their heads over a newly renovated bus stop where concrete was poured over the seating area, resulting in the seats being level with the ground.

Hello and thank you for being part of the Fediverse experiment. This Community is run by some long term Discord and Reddit community members - as this is a whole new world it's possible many of us have different names - I am LordWarfire from both Reddit and Discord and wanted to welcome you to this new place.

Please make yourselves at home and let us know what you'd like to see here and how you found us!

For anyone who found us via the Fediverse - this is a Community for the town of Reading in Berkshire, rather than for the thing you do with books. I know, it's confusing. We even pronounce it differently - welcome to "Redding" :)

Thanks!
